Yes, first serious go at ME. I tasted a Dwarves faction in ME, but only ran a few turns of it. I'm planning on giving it a good go through on Reikland. Initial take is that handgunners and Reiksguard are quite good in particular.
I've had lots of luck micro-ing the Reiksguard and hammer/anviling or attacking archers in the back line. They seem faster than cav units from other factions, though it's been a few months since I've played and it may just be me.
Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck.”
