| | {{:abilities:mason.png?15&nolink}} Engineers can upgrade {{:misc:gui:fortress.png?15&nolink}} Forts into {{:misc:gui:castle.png?15&nolink}} Castles. But, while it does increase other stats such as {{:misc:gui:recruitment.png?15&nolink}} Recruitment Point Percentage, it does not increase Commander Points. This means the build cost of {{:misc:gui:gold.png?15&nolink}} 600 might not be worth it. |

| | ==== Generic Spells ==== |
| | Conjuration, Alteration, and Evocation 5 are important. |
| | |
| | == Conjuration == |
| | ??Bind Scorpion Beast?? (Conj. 3) {{path>F1E1}} and {{gems>2F}} summons a unit with decent protection and hit-points, if in a pinch in the early game. \\ |
| | ??Summon Earthpower?? (Conj. 3) {{path>E2}} can give the entire [[Communion]] [[Reinvigoration]]. \\ |
| | ??Strength of Gaia?? (Conj. 4) {{path>1E3N}} \\ |
| | EA Arco has access to every single Elemental type. \\ |
| | ??Howl?? (Conj. 5) {{path>N3}} and {{gems>3N}}, should be spammed out. |
| | |
| | == Evocation == |
| | ??Gifts from Heaven?? (Evo. 5) {{path>E3S1}} is extremely useful for EA Arco. If fighting a [[Flying]] nation, not as useful because of the dangers of friendly fire. |
| | |
| | == Alteration == |
| | EA Arcoscephale has good troops that take buffs well, especially if the troops have [[Formation Fighter]]. |
| | |
| | ??Stone Skin?? (Alt. 4) {{path>E2}} \\ |
| | ??Group Ironskin?? (Alt. 6) {{path>E3}} \\ |
| | ??Wooden Warriors?? (Alt. 6) {{path>N3}} and {{gems>1N}} can be helpful. \\ |
| | ??Giant Warriors?? (Alt. 6) {{path>N3}} and {{gems>1N}} can also be helpful. \\ |
| | ??Marble Warriors?? (Alt. 7) {{path>E3}} and {{gems>1E}} |
| | |
| | ??Maws of the Earth?? (Alt. 5) {{path>E3}} and {{gems>1E}} \\ |
| | ??Control?? (Alt. 6) {{path>S3}} and {{gems>1S}} |
| | |
| | == Enchantment == |
| | ??Foul Vapors?? (Ench. 6) {{path>W1N4}} and {{gems>2N}} |
| | |
| | == Thaumaturgy == |
| | ??Communion Slave?? (Thau. 1) {{path>S1}} and ??Communion Master?? (Thau. 1) {{path>S1}} With ??Mystic#311??s all having {{:misc:magic:astral.png?15&nolink}} Astral, it's easy to build large [[Communions]]. \\ |

| ===== Strategy ===== | ===== Strategy ===== |
| How to win as the nation. Feel free to use the following sections, or delete them, or change them. | === Primary Strategy === |
| | __It's F'n Windy__ \\ |
| | Choose an imprisoned pretender, great scales, and a decent bless for ??Wind Rider#1074??s. Usually defense focused bless to help the ??Armored Pegasus#3557??. Great scales allow recruiting other expensive troops and ton of mystics. Research up early. Use ??Wind Rider#1074??s and ??Wind Lord#1075??s for excellent expansion. Early game, a big power spike because of Wind Riders and mid game, a power spike because of ??Mystic#311??s and ??Gifts from Heaven??. Late game, humans are weak to battlefield wipes, but hopefully the research advantage will compensate for that. Seduction in the later mid-game to deal with certain problems. |
| |
| ==== Expansion ==== | == Bless == |
| Different expansion options. | Consider using: \\ |
| | Blood Surge \\ |
| | Defense x 5 |
| |
| ==== Early Game ==== | == Research Path == |
| Early game options. | Conj. 3 \\ |
| | Evo. 5 \\ |
| | Conj. 5 \\ |
| | Alt. 7 \\ |
| | Ench. 6 \\ |
| | Con. 5 \\ |
| | Thaum. 5 |
| |
| ==== Mid Game ==== | If fighting a [[Flying]] nation, postpone Evo. 5 and prioritze Conj. 5 for ??Howl??. |
| Mid game options. | |
| | === Alternate #1 === |
| | __Scales Mages__ \\ |
| | Choose a dormant pretender who is good at research, great scales and a weak bless. This sacrifices amazing expansion (20 provinces by Turn 12), for decent expansion (14 provinces by Turn 12). But, it increases research speed, accelerating into the mid-game, hopefully getting ??Gifts from Heaven?? halfway through the first war. Use ??Cardaces#199?? to hold enemy troops while ??Mystic#311??s spam ??Gifts from Heaven??. This strategy isn't as good as the primary strategy, but is still viable. (Probably a more viable strategy with other EA nations that have better troops.) |
| | |
| | Research Path is the same as "It's F'n Windy." |
| | |
| | === Alternate #2 === |
| | __Thugopolis__ \\ |
| | Choose an Awake pretender, trash scales, and a strong bless. Through the game, using some ??Philosopher#1070??s and some ??Oreiad#1650??s is probably worthwhile, unlike in the other strategies. Send expansion parties of two ??Wind Lord#1075??s, two ??Wind Rider#1074??s. Just like with the first strategy, expansion will probably go really well. Get Con. 3 and Alt 3. early to equip and point-buff the ??Wind Lord#1075??s. Point buffing the ??Wind Lord#1075??s with [[Ethereal]], [[Quickness]], ??Temper Flesh??, etc. can make them pretty tanky. ??Engineer#1072??s and ??Peltast#201??s can be used to siege down forts. Still not as effective as the primary strategy, but viable and also fun. See [[https://youtu.be/5Uc84GvU17Y?t=3595|EA Arco Thug Expansion]] for an example of thug expansion. |
| | |
| | == Bless == |
| | Consider using: \\ |
| | Blood Surge \\ |
| | Stygian Flesh \\ |
| | And other strong blesses. |
| | |
| | == Research Path == |
| | Con. 3 \\ |
| | Alt. 3 \\ |
| | Then follow the same path as "It's F'n Windy", occasionally increasing Construction and Alteration in order to keep up with equipping and point buffing thugs. |

| | |
| | Good for the __It's F'n Windy__ strategy. Grey Ones are phenomenal. Being a [[Trinity]], they have great research when they wake up. Having three powerful mages with a lot of crosspaths is always useful. Be aware, they split the magic paths you initially assign them between themselves, and then each one gets different bonus magic. When creating, {{:misc:magic:glamour.png?15&nolink}}Glamour, {{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}}Blood, and {{:misc:magic:death.png?15&nolink}}Death, are all going to be four instead of three, because EA Arco does can't recruit mages with those paths. |
| | |
| | The [[Bless]] is primarily defensive in order to keep the horsies alive. With the scales, you can drop dominion by one increase a different scale, like Growth, by one. |

| | |
| | Good for the __Scales Mages__ strategy. Grey Ones are still phenomenal. Being a [[Trinity]], they have great research, almost {{path>R100}}, when they wake up. Having three powerful mages with a lot of crosspaths is always useful. Be aware, they split the magic paths you initially assign them between themselves, and then each one gets different bonus magic. When creating, {{:misc:magic:glamour.png?15&nolink}}Glamour, {{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}}Blood, and {{:misc:magic:death.png?15&nolink}}Death, are priority, because EA Arco does can't recruit mages with those paths. |
| | |
| | The [[Bless]] is decent for expansion. Because EA Arco has {{:abilities:healer.png?15&nolink}} [[Healer]]s, the units will live longer and benefit more from the additional experience. With a Dominion of four, regular troops will need to be used in addition to the [[Sacred]] ones. |
| | |
| | Not an optimal build, but gets research boosted while not sacrificing [[Scales]] or [[Bless]] too much. |

| | **Lossless** the Lich \\ //For the god afraid of dying and losing sacreds.// |
| | |
| | Good for the __Thugopolis__ strategy. Solves all magic problems because it has {{:misc:magic:death.png?15&nolink}}Death, {{:misc:magic:glamour.png?15&nolink}}Glamour, and {{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}}Blood. (Eventually, needs to be empowered in {{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}}Blood, which is not that difficult.) {{:abilities:fear.png?15&nolink}}[[Fear]] works especially well on mounted units because {{:abilities:fear.png?15&nolink}}[[Fear]] emanates from both the rider and the mount. Landing sacreds right into your enemy's backline can cause commanders to rout. |
| | |
| | Not the best pretender in the world, but if you want your cavalry to expand next to lossless, this is the best. Increases tempo in the early game and provides scaling for the late game. Does miss out on the scales for troops. |

| ===== Weaknesses ===== | ===== Weaknesses ===== |
| What are the nation's weaknesses? | EA Arcoscephale can be countered with small groups of mages with elite bodyguards. ??Wind Rider??s are hard to buff and have difficulty with elites. Ironically, flying troops are quite good against EA Arco as they make it difficult for ??Mystic??s to cast ??Gifts from Heaven??, the ??Mystic??s’ bread-and-butter. |
| |
| | EA Arco’s biggest weakness overall is their reliance on human mages. The mages need forts and time for research, and are susceptible to battlefield clears. |
