Beginner's Guide to C'tis MA

[Calchet]

Unless I misremember seasonal heat variation, I do believe taking heat 3 rather than 2 is a worthwhile proposal:

While at heat 2, your provinces will vary between 1 and 3 depending on season, for an average of 2, a maxed-out heat will see it varying between 2 and 3, with an average somewhere around 2.66 - in essence, giving you the full point value for a lesser increase in heat. (It also leaves you more resistant to the province-chilling ritual, which is handy for your cold-blooded forces.)

[P3D]

For cold-blooded troops and magi you want H3, as there's no way to get rid of the Cold-blooded encumbrance penalty (save turning into undead).

There's logic to that. I agree. I guess the only contention I'd have to that is how it effects income in the core of your empire where your dominion is high, however combat effectiveness is probably a lot more important.

yes, but effects on neighbors are worse....
