Re: Thoughts on balancing MA Oceania
Baalz,
My experience is restricted to SP only so my comments below may be completely off the mark - I hope you won't be offended if they are.
1. Bishop fish should be a good counter to both EA Oceania knights (when defended against flanking) as well as Agatha statues (with amulet of the fish). If you had allies you might have considered trading for air gems to make amulet of the fish to use your bishop fish on land. At sea EA Oceania has bishop fish too but if you had an overwhelming economy you could field far more bishop fish than he can to overcome his superior numbers of knights.
2. Your economic advantage might not be as great as you think. EA Oceania must have sacrificed his scales to get his heavy bless, so his true strength could be more than 50% greater than his raw numbers. If your Agatha opponent also follows a heavy bless strategy, you might actually be significantly weaker than their combined strength even though the raw numbers might say otherwise.
If the above were true, then your problems with Ma Oceania might have nothing to do with MA Oceania being hopelessly weak.
