| ===== General Overview ===== | ===== General Overview ===== |
| If you are considering picking this nation to play, what should you know? | Piconye is whatever the opposite of a Giant nation is, just like [[Vaettiheim-la|Vaettiheim]], [[Xibalba-la|Xibalba]], and [[Shinuyama-ma|Shinuyama]] from the previous era. Unlike these others, however, Piconye has almost //no// human-sized-or-bigger troops; they're all summons, such as the ??Cyclops#3381?? and the various angels. On top of that, these troops are very similar to the independent Hoburgs; in other words, they don't do a lot of damage, and they can't //take// a lot of damage either. Their Defense Skills are high, and they're pretty well-equipped, but battle magic will subsume them with ease. These troops are at least //incredibly// cheap, but the discounts are mainly in [[Gold]] and [[Recruitment Points]]. Aside from that, Piconye's commanders are not very good, putting a hard speed limit on how quickly the nation can mobilize large armies. |
| |
| | Piconye has three different [[Sacred]] troops, and the nation accrues an extra Holy Point for every [[Temple]] it builds; other nations, on the other hand, have to build five Temples for each extra point. These Sacred troops are priced the same as typical human infantry from other nations, and not without reason; still, the sheer amount of Sacreds Piconye can print outstrips every other nation in the game, so the Prester Kingdom is immensely incentivized to build a powerful [[Bless]]. The Sacreds have high Attack Skill and Precision, making the weapon Blesses very decent choices given their low Strength; with that being said, the little ??Baculite#3791?? fellow has the closest damage output to a typical human elite, and the stat blesses can possibly pull them ahead of human capabilities. |
| | |
| | Magically speaking, Piconye has only three mages: these are a cheap-and-efficient fort-bound [[Research|Researcher]], a somewhat-expensive combat mage-[[Holy|priest]] that can be found off-forts, and a Mage-Priest-King who demands a lot for what he offers. Piconye's [[Earth]] Mages can buff the troops enough to punch through plate armor, provided that the nation gets there before other Earth-or-[[Nature]] nations get deep into [[Alteration]]. The Kings provide respectably deep [[Astral]] access, and the Sage-Priests can assemble large (if expensive) [[Communion|Communions]]. The problem is that Piconye's mages are still Hoburg-like, making it very easy for [[Evocation|Evocations]] to wipe them. Even if the [[Elemental Resistance|Elemental Resistances]] are brought up to keep the Mages alive, mere scratch damage can force most of them into a [[rout]], due to their undignified [[Morale]]... |
