Ragha is a dual kingdom of fire and ice, rage and serenity. Half of the population are Abysian descendants from the isolated colony of Tur, and half the population are Airyan refugees from Caelum. Tur was a distant and prosperous Abysian colony founded after a successful military campaign against the giants of Ashdod. But the war with Ashdod had been taxing and the colony was cut off from the kingdom by a Arcoscephalean campaign through the fertile lands previously conquered from the giants. For centuries Tur was left alone and an independent kingdom formed. Then came the Caelians. A great host of iceclad warriors descended upon the Turan armies on the plain of Ragha in the mid of winter. The Turan Shah realized that Tur could not stand up to the Caelians for long. Tur was on the brink of destruction when the attacks suddenly stopped. Civil war had broken out in Caelum and the campaign was aborted. Instead Caelian refugees and deserters settled on the plain of Ragha. Airyan Seraphs approached the Turan Shah and peace was negotiated. When the Harab Seraphs of Caelum attacked, the Airyas were saved by the gryphon riders of Tur. This sealed the truce and a strange alliance was formed. Ragha is now a society of two peoples united out of necessity. During winter the Airyas reign and during summer the Turans reign. Even faith has evolved to mimic the legacy of the two peoples. Two different groups of beings are adored and worshipped. But this is starting to change. The One True God has arisen. The peoples of Ragha suffer less from hot or cold climates than other nations. - Illwinter

Still Needed.

As a common trend of Powerful nations, they are Dangrous Early on with A powerful expanders to coust you through the early game, Then Transition to Strong magic late game.
Getting powerful sacred Griphs and have summons to break them into all magic paths.

Ragha consists of two races, the Turians from Abysia and the Airyans from Caelum. This gives them a mixed roster of heat and cold units. All of their Airyan troops and the Turian sacreds are flying.

Special Race Attributes	Military	Magic Access	Priests	Buildings
Airyans: Cold Resistant Flying Ice Weaposn and armor Turians: Fire Resistant(10) (some 15) Wasteland Survival Mountain Survival	Dependent on Temperature Scales Flying Airyan infantry Turian Griffon Riders, infantry, cavalry and elephants	3 3 2 2 2 2 National summons 32 (Require 3) for these higher paths require High Astral or Death. 5, 4, 4 4, 5, 5, 4, 3	Medium Priests(2, Summon 4)	Standard Forts (fortress) Temples cost 800 (Generates Fire Gems)

Your national troops are divided by the Fire loving and mounted Turins and the Ice clad and flying Airya. You get a default roster of basic troops from both sides but your better troops are locked between heat and cold scales.

Although Illwinter intended the nation to alternate recruitment depending on the yearly seasons, it's actually a better strategy to focus one temperature scale for your main recruitment while finding/making pockets of the opposite later in the game for later game diversity.

The Turans, decedents of Abyssa, are traditionally armored for the late age with a strong near immunity against fire and favor armored calvery. Favoring them grants you access to the powerful Zhayedans one of the strongest sacred troops in-game.

The Airya have wings and troops are armed with Magic ice gear which grows tougher in the cold but Melts in the heat. Their troop lineup is not as good as the Turans but the ability to fly grants lots of map and battlefield utility.

• Conjuration 3: Phoenix Power 6 National mages.

• Evocation: Thunder Strike, Storm, Falling Fires

• Enchantment 4: Twiceborn, Antimagic

• Alteration 4: Wolven Winter

Requires finding a nature mage and boosting them to 2 or trying to find the right Yazad. both are a long process and you probably move on to Easer to make Longdead or later summon to fill your chaff.

• Ambush of Tigers: 2 Conj 3 for 10 (summon Tigerx10+[lv]). Fast moving chaff with a Claw and bit attack.

• Herd of Buffaloes: 2 Conj 3 for 10 (summon Buffalox5+[lv/2]). a Tempting Magic sponge to draw fire off your troops. Also can be dangrous melee potental being two attacks Beserker Tramplers.

• Herd of Elephants: 2 Conj 3 for 25 (summon Elephantx5+[lv/2]). summon Pressous nature gems for War Elephant then more plentiful gold (how some things are so inverted in the late age).

Ragha is well suited at summoning these demons.

• Call Daevas: 21 Conj 5 for 15 (summon Daevax6). May need some Protection fluffing, but for addtional shock troopers to your Zhayedans. Probaly only get for situations then usual summoning recruitment as saveing the gems to spam the national mages will grant you greater utility.

• Call Jahi: 31 Conj 5 for 15 (summon Jahix1). Succubus spy with Death gems. Have better use of Death gems but you may want to gleam more info from your enemy.

• Call Yata: 32 Conj 6 for 40 (summon Daeva of Shooting Starsx1, Daeva of Frost and Snowx1, Yatax1, or Pairikax1). Summons upkeepless Death mages. Realy good when you get the Daeva of Shooting Stars to break you into the Yazads for more magic diversity.

• Call Greater Daeva: 42 Conj 8 for 60. Unique summonable mages that Gets you into High death and Blood, while going into Earth.

You don't have that good in astral like the rest of Caelum but you have national ways to climb so you often don't need a pretender with astral. Unless forming a particular army spending astral pearls on the summons are your best investment.

• Summon Yazatas: 2 Conj 5 for 15 (summon Yazadx6). Your bird Shock troopers that can operate in a Thunder Strike army and are well servivable.

• Call Ahurani: 21 Conj 5 for 12 (summon Ahuranix1). not much use other then the fastest option you have to cure Airya Seraphs of Deasises and they can lead troops underwater for raids.

• Call Celestial Yazad: 4 Conj 6 for 40 (summon Yazad of Firex1, Yazad of Justicex1, Yazad of the Starsx1, Yazad of the Skyx1, Yazad of Waterx1, Yazad of the Earthx1). mportent summons for magic diversity, in clibming Astral, Water, Earth, and Nature. the Yazad of the Earth is importnet in making Troll Kings and making nature boosters.

• Call Fravashi: 3 Conj 7 for 30 (summon Ancestral Fravashix1). a upkeep-less Air mage if you have the pearls to burn.

• Call Amesha Spenta: 5 Conj 8 for 60

• Parting of the Soul: 11 thaum 6. Spell some Turan can Know. an alternate Paralyze and Shadow Blast. Less range and more Fatiguing for also summoning 3 Black Hawks. Better when your Turan is solo, no gems, with his pants down than in scripted battle. ( do mages cast this off-script?)

• Call of the Drugvant: 41 thaum 7 for 15

What magic path/mages define your nation, what can you level, e.g., thunderstriking, astral, elementals, earth buffs, blood, what is recruitable anywhere and good, what are some summons you are likely able to get and are useable

The main recruitable magics are your Turans with their Fire, Death, Blood, and some air while the Airya Master Air with Water, Astral, and Some fire. The Higher-ups can also dabble a little in the other's magic.

You get 3s in Fire and Air, and 2s in the rest, but You are actually very diverse because of your national summons, getting you into many different endgames.

Your Turans summon the Daeva to get Lots of death mages.

This will lead you into the Yazatas for access to Nature, Earth, and Greater Astral.

You have a pool were most of your Summons come out of soo to cut down on the randomness, here are some spells to get more wizards you need:

• Elemental Royalty, Naiad, Kokythiad, Golem, Faery Queen, Troll King, Wraith Lord, Litch,

What is the best spell you can use in combat. What spells the best support your national lineup, Is their weakness that you need to fix? Any tricks you should be aware you have?

They have two styles of casting.

Turans use fire, death, and blood with some air for crosspaths. Being very Fire resistant, Don't mind casting big AOE Fire attacks like Fire Storm, Heat from Hell, and Sulpher Haze. They can expand with Summoning Fire Elementals and Longdead. when fighting Supercombatens, Turnans can use Banefire, Shadow Bolt, and Incinerate.

Airya Use Strong Air, and Water, Astral plus some Fire. They are great Thunder Strikers, and Summon Air Elementals. By turning of most flying Storm boost your air spells. They also can cast Acid spells.

What is the best ritual you could cast. Are there any globals you want up, any units you should be summoning? Are there any Generic rituals few nations can cast?

If you take a Zhayedan blessing, you can so use Tartarians.

Do you have any National items(Construction Level, Price, and required Paths). Any unique generic items few other nations can forge? What item would be useful on your unit lineup (non-standard recommend thug gear)?

Stone Idol Expensive, but a way to remove dominion from your dedicated cold/heat spots required to unlock the other half of your nation.

• Crown of the Shah: Const 2, 11, 55. Can only be worn by Shahs. Boost users max army size for all unit types, boost users Holy level by 1 and can cast Fanaticism well worth the 10 gems.

do you have a game plan? Anything you should always be working toward? Any National weaknesses?

What kinds of scales dose your nation like? Do they require any to function? Any blesses your sacreds would like? Do you desperately need an awake expander? Examples of Pretenders?

How to expand, potential pitfalls and how to get around them, obvious weakness strength, how much do you have to focus on war/infrastructure

what is the first big research rush, what is the first big powerspike, where do you shift recruitment to? what are the big magic diversity issues, are there particular globals you should gun for

How do you close out the game if you are in it, is the high-level research stuff you can do uniquely well, does your nation fall off, aka do you have to force things to conclude swiftly
