Poll: scale the difficulty of each campaign

[athanaric]

"Adding mine and ports"??? what's the point of choosing a hard faction if it's to make it filthy rich and easy to play! As if I'd use Sweboz and decide to add mines to every cities (amber and timber excavation) plus add population until all settelements become huge cities... real challenge... i could also put all their units at 2 HP... just in case it's still too hard

I agree with you. Nothing should be done to make the game easier. All campaigns are playable on VH/M by a moderately competent player. Also, building things up from scratch is actually a major source of motivation for me to play the Swêboz.

Small factions in this period never tended to be able to support large standing armies for long periods.

I think you misunderstood him. He wants smaller starting armies for some minor factions.
