Default POLL: Nation Preferences

The purpose of this post is to discuss the various preferences people have when choosing nations. I am trying to be as unbiased as possible when asking the questions.

Lots of polls lately. Good to see all stock nations in this one.

Early I like R'Lyeh the most, although Yomi is a close second. The aboleth empire concept is one of my favorites, even with some of the problems they have, I usually do decently with them as well. Marverni I voted as weakest. Between my experiences in games with them and the general vibe from the boards, they come off as trobuled.

Middle I again like R'Lyeh the most. H.P. Lovecraft monsters and lots of amphibious units? Yes, please. Weakest in MA is rather hotly contested, but I have to go with Ulm.

Late I like Agartha, Ktonian dead the most. The changes from middle to late are significant and the loss of some amphibious units is mitigated by the addition of crossbows and other nice units. LA R'Lyeh is fun, but the random behavior of my commanders was giving me fits. I voted for Abysia as weakest again due to my experiences and general thoughts on the board.

I cant answer, it really depends on my mood. Do I want to play a bless rush? To I want to play Magic Heavy? do I want to play good scales? I dont even think I play one nation more than the others.

The question reads like this....

What Early Era Nation do you play with the "MOST" and why?... The nation that you use most regardless of mood.

This poll will cause many lots of tons of talking, with people making complicated maths to explain things. My head is already painful.

I'm astonished that Helheim has gotten no votes yet.

I personally think that me caelum is rather weak, but ulm is even worse. ME caelum has only two redeeming qualities- elephants, and mobility. Their mainline troops are even worse than ulm's, apart from that.
