-Recruit your ??Vanherse?? and 3 ??Helhirding?? for the first few turns.  Put the Helhirding on guard commander and script the Vanherse for ??Air Shield??, ??Blessing?? x2, and attack closest or attack rear.  Attack rear is riskier as it tends to split up your squad.  If you're having trouble, a little practice is all it takes for ample expansion.  After a few turns get out ??Svartalf?? in between Vanherse and send them site searching.  Research const2 straight away and as soon as you have E gems make a hammer.  Don't be afraid to alchemize a bit to get your first hammers out early because you're going to be keeping those hammers busy making research and magic path boosters as well as gear for Vanjarl, Svartalf, and ??Hangadrott?? After your god makes a hammer, send him or her out to search 3-4 provinces prioritizing province types with high gem frequencies for that much-needed fire, water, and nature income.  You may want to prioritize taking provinces with higher gem frequency over provinces with higher gold income!+{{:nations:ea:helheim:vanherse.png?25&nolink }}  {{:nations:ea:helheim:helhirding.png?25&nolink }} Recruit your ??Vanherse?? and 3 ??Helhirding?? for the first few turns.  Put the Helhirding on guard commander and script the Vanherse for ??Air Shield??, ??Blessing?? x2, and attack closest or attack rear.  Attack rear is riskier as it tends to split up your squad.  If you're having trouble, a little practice is all it takes for ample expansion.

-Your E random dwarves can make hammers at const2 and any dwarf can make ??Earth Boots?? at const4 for hammers.  Put hammers on Vanherse and start cranking out those ??Air Quills??.  With your awake rainbow, you'll hit const4 pretty fast; use the death sites you've found so far to start making skull mentors.  +Your E random dwarves can make hammers at const2 and any dwarf can make ??Earth Boots?? at const4 for hammers.  Put hammers on Vanherse and start cranking out those ??Owl Quill??s.  With your awake rainbow, you'll hit const4 pretty fast; use the death sites you've found so far to start making skull mentors.  
  
 If you're skeptical at this point, try to keep in mind that we're trying to be sly here.  We had surgical precision in our province count to ensure viability while preventing fear-mongering.  Although we may not have as many Helhirdings as the classic build and the bless may not be as strong, we still have Helhirdings and they're still stupid good.  So while investment in skull mentors is generally considered a fantastic waste of death gems, most players don't have all the things going for them that we do for us. If you're skeptical at this point, try to keep in mind that we're trying to be sly here.  We had surgical precision in our province count to ensure viability while preventing fear-mongering.  Although we may not have as many Helhirdings as the classic build and the bless may not be as strong, we still have Helhirdings and they're still stupid good.  So while investment in skull mentors is generally considered a fantastic waste of death gems, most players don't have all the things going for them that we do for us.
