Yeah, I'm playing Ulm, and I've taken Sloth.

Not.

Heh. Ulm is generally not a nation you want to take sloth with - almost all your decent troops are resource-intensive, so even without the production bug sloth directly translates into you not being able to recruit as many troops.

Ah, I just love the way Dom2 places nations (some nations only 1 or 2 provinces between their capitals, while some wind up 7 or 8 away from their nearest neighbor). Looks like this is going to be a bloody one.

Hell, even Ulm's cruddy troops are pretty resource-intensive.

have i mentioned lately how much i hate ulm? its infantry are the worst in the game...

Infantry? What is this infantry thing you speak of? I don't think I've built a single Ulmish infantryman in the last half-dozen games (mostly single-player) I've played.

The Black Knights of Ulm are never defeated!

Yeah we are packed in like rats in this map. Mathematically we should have 15provs/player. But its looking like I will be lucky to get 6-8. I already have one border!

heh, well the black knights are actually good units, though a bit overpriced - but even they are only really good in the early game against indies. A bit of elemental magic, and all that gold just swirls down the drain...
