This stuff is still coming up in my recommendations.

"Problem is, all [Rlyeh's] freespawn chaff is pretty friggin' useless against actual competent troops" Dude I've had a random 15 villain event take out 40 freespawn almost losslessly. No competence needed. Rlyeh's freespawn are a malus on the battlefield in almost evrry scenario. That said, great video.

You can take perun's computer. You can take perun's save files. But you can't take away his galaxy brain and soothing voice lmao

More Erytheia guides! If its okay with you, I added a link to your video in my own overview. We agree on a few points so far, which is great. I learned a lot of Dominions5 watching your videos and hope that the few people following me can check out your content. Its all quality! I may have obsessed over the Daduchoi a bit more than you... They are quite good.

Who doesn't love a nice sacred mage? Getting a reinvigoration bless for one makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside

@@Isvoor Honestly, they don't even need it half the time cause their communions rock that hard. (Earthpower puns?) I think I have a fight up already where the battle ends on round 20 or so, the slaves are at less than 100 fatigue and the masters are at 0. Thats with them doing shenanigans like tstrike, petrify, falling fires. Using wide path daduchoi as slaves with power of the spheres and whatever magic boosting spells tends to leave them at 3-4 skill in most magic paths.

Mate, the more people that look at a topic the closer we all get to knowing what you're talking about. I'll have to check out your take.

Fun meme strat for fighting Atlantis: 1. Pick drakon, give it strength +4 and PR 15. 2. Have it forge a bear claw talisman. 3. Research alteration 1 and have great expansion since you have an awake pretender. 4. Sometime around the turn 12-18 mark, if Atlantis is anywhere near you attack it with javelins or whatever else you want on flanks, PR15 sacreds near drakon. Drakon is forward/center positioned, casts earth might and is then set to "fire". If you have ench 3, you can heal it to 125 hp in hostile dominion too, though it usually shouldn't be taking melee hits. Atlantis takes time to build up countermeasures for poison, and usually prefers ice guard, which are not sacred and won't benefit from PR bless even if they take one. Drakon is cold-blooded and will suffer for that, but will still tend use up its dragon gas charges. Gas scales 1/2 strength -3, so having +13 strength will add ~6 damage to dragon gas, which leaves a lingering cloud effect. This will damage PR 10 troops, kill most PR 5 troops (I've accidentally killed my own gigante warrior even w/o the talisman, though that's rare), and absolutely mops PR 0 troops. While this is a meme strat, it's not like you're dead in the water literally or figuratively if Atlantis happens to not be nearby. Turbocharged poison damage in year 1 or early year 2 can screw a lot of other builds too, and having good expansion + an annoying pretender that can be fluffed with ethereal/quickness/self-buff regen (and wear regen ring) usually requires at least tech 5 and good predictions from opponents to kill (a mis-step can cost an attacker most of its army too). You can totally go scales and do fine, but I think gassing down Atlantis ASAP is a funny way to screw with them, and that PG can easily score dozens of ice guard kills even on the offense. Doesn't work underwater though (unlike poison/sleep clouds which do).

i have waited for this for soo long

I would wonder why you sound weird if I could damn hear anything

Think with a video this long dividing a few sections might make some sense. Introduction/Lore/Troops/Mages/Research/Pretenders or something like that. Would be usefull for example when you later come back to it to look for something specific or want to test a strategy you suggested. An idea for another segment would be showcase battle. An example how this nation tool can work together in battle. Here this could be either an early game underwater battle or mid-game land battle. Against a throne for easy set up, against another nation if you feel fancy (maybe the next you plan to make a guide to). Just a few ideas, thank you for the guide.

There are some good ideas there that I'll look into incorperating

i don't understand why they have nerf xbows, they should get full range

your voice is not as much off as it is so silent that my computers fan noise is far louder (I still can turn up my stereo directly, but that means everything else will be unbearably loud), it's been a while since I found such a silent KZread video ps. yeah, I'll come back tomorrow to watch this, turning up my volume at night is a bad idea pps. turned on my music, turned master volume from 100% to 10% now it sounds like the same volume (also I just like to document such interesting facts, it's not to criticize, if at all then more to let you know so you could improve if you deem it necessary) ppps. freakin popup notification hurt my ears now (please shut up Windows)

If you had a script for this you could try and closed caption the section that the audio is janky.

I watched some of this with KZread's auto CC, it's pretty good.

I've been wanting to play Erytheia for almost a year now, but all the work of diverse lategame communions has always deterred me. Overall I had many of the same thoughts. I am more open to the crossbowman. At 7 resources they can come out very quickly and give a good amount of fire power against heavy, fire resistant troops when your javelins fail.

Erytheian Crossbows are extremely accurate because they get so close to fire, plus they are very cheap for a crossbow like you said. Good behind a durable frontline.

Bit to quite, but audio ok otherwise.

The princess can be earth 3, the prince cannot. The prince can be astral 3, the princess cannot. They are also good leaders. Best leaders you have thanks to fire magic. If you are pumping them out of your capital, you are basically getting improved daduchoi and commanders in one. I would fish for those 3-paths, especially when low on cash because they are technically cheap since they are slow to recruit.

@Isvoor

Both can also be fire or water 3, which daduchoi (or any other national mage) cannot. So that's a lot of random paths you can fish for. You need some of them for the summons

Oh, and also something notably every single prince can do that no daduchoi can: Holy communions.

LA Ryleh's decision was so shit that it made the other water nations around it better despite them being out of their element.

Definately mediocre nation. Meh troops, ok mages, uw access, nothing big. Imho one of the biggest strengh of this nation is what its "I kill it later" nation. Early one everyone will be focusing on rushing either late game guys like Bogarus, or already powerful ones like Atlantis. Or survival, if its Bogarus player. Also you one of few nation what can say -"hey guys dont attack me and i remove this nasty Rlyeh from the map" and most people will agree. I call it "The Power of Mediocrity".

Ok I don't know if it's just me but the sound quality on this one's just horrid. It's barely half as loud as normal and it's extremely muffled. It honestly sounds like you put your mic under a pillow before you started recording.
