== Overview ==
==Overview==
Ermorian armies are infantry-heavy, well-shielded, and pack javelins practically everywhere. The strong equipment of its troops makes for a significant demand on resources.
 
Ermorian magic is very versatile, but in general weak; it can create mages in every path save Blood, but can only create level-2 (or better) mages in the form of Augur Elders. However, these (along with all the other mages save the two Bishops) can be recruited at any fort, making for a very large and expensive magic corps.

;Slinger: Gold 7, Resources 2
:Slingers are the only dedicated Ermorian ranged troop. Unfortunately, slings are most definitely beat by short bows - which you can get from indies.
;Leve: Gold 10, Resources 8
:Leve are basic light infantry, packing a spear and javelin weapon combination on a lightly-armored (by Ermor standards) frame.
;Accensus: Gold 8, Resources 9
:Accensi, compared to Leve, have a reduced gold cost and a tower shield in exchange for poorer morale and attack skill.
;Rorarus: Gold 10, Resources 13
:Rorari improve on the Accensus's body armor and, with their superior training, can form the bulk of Ermor's forces.
;Hastatus: Gold 12, Resources 14
:Hastati replace the lower ranks' spear with a short sword, and add a bit more morale and defence skill.
;Principe: Gold 15, Resources 16
:Principes continue the tradition of minor skill and equipment upgrades, gaining a heavier Lorica Squamata (body armor) and a bit more morale and skills.
;Triarius: Gold 14, Resources 28
:Triarii get the strongest armor and the highest morale among regular Ermorian infantry, and trade out the weapon/javelin combo for a Long Spear, but are recruited suffering from Old Age - not a good thing for an infantryman.
;Lizard Auxiliare: Gold 10, Resources 11
:This refugee from [[Dominions_3:_The_Awakening/Nations/C'tis,_Lizard_Kings|C'tis]] is equipped much like a Hastatus, but gains Poison Resistance 50, Cold Blooded, and Swamp Survival. Its morale, however, is unimpressive.
;Equite: Gold 40, Resources 18
:While not quite as heavily-equipped as indy Heavy Cavalry, Equites are nonetheless solid contenders for the mid-to-heavy cavalry regime.
;Retiarius: Gold 8, Resources 1
:Carrying a net but no shield, the Retiarius is dirt-cheap, but will only fight in one battle before automatically disbanding.
;Gladiator: Gold 8, Resources 1
:The Gladiator's flail makes it a deadly offensive troop, but its refusal to fight more than one battle makes for poor strategic capability.
;Equite of the Sacred Shroud: Gold 65, Resources 20
:Ermor's sole (and capital-only) sacred unit, these get a substantial stat boost and Recuperation compared to their plain brethren.
 
===Commanders===
;Scout: Gold 20, Resources 3
:Ye basic stealthy infantryman.
;Assassin: Gold 60, Resources 4
:Adds the ability to assassinate enemy commanders. Short Sword + Poison Dagger gives it some offensive bite.
;Centurion: Gold 30, Resources 21
:With a Leadership of only 40, these basic commanders will probably be overlooked in favor of their elder siblings. Lack of a shield can be fixed by adding a magic shield.
;Legatus Legionis: Gold 70, Resources 21
:The Legatus couples Leadership 120 with the Standard (10) effect, improving morale for nearby troops. His default equipment does not include a shield either.
;Acolyte: Gold 40, Resources 1
:Magic: H1
:Ye basic priestly sort. Easily overshadowed by all the other Ermorian spellcasters.
;Flamen: Gold 120, Resources 1
:Magic: F1H1 + 100% random (FAWEN)
:Provides a wide variety of magic at a reasonable price.
;Pontifex: Gold 120, Resources 2
:Magic: F1H2
:A stronger priestly sort.
;Augur: Gold 80, Resources 1
:Magic: F1S1
:Provides Astral magic and the Fortune Teller (5) ability, giving it some ability to prevent bad events in its province.
;Augur Elder: Gold 250, Resources 1
:Magic: F2S1D2 +100% random (FASD) + 10% random (FASD)
:An older (it's got a substantial Old Age penalty), more powerful Augur. Same Fortune Teller ability as its younger brother.
;Bishop of the Sacred Shroud: Gold 75, Resources 1
:Magic: H2
:With Recuperation and Healer (20), these can support troops very effectively.
;Arch Bishop of the Sacred Shroud: Gold 180, Resources 1
:Magic: H3
:Between their Holy 3 magic, their Recuperation and their Healer (30) ability, these make very impressive priests - save for their Old Age.

====Scale Design====
As its Augur Elders are not sacred, they cost a substantial amount of gold, both to hire and to maintain. That they can be recruited anywhere you have a fortress is yet another drain on the coffers. So Order 3 is critical. Misfortune can be a source of points, given the capabilities of Augurs.
