I am not accusing anyone of cheating, and don't necessarily think they are, but I"d like to know what system they've concocted because it sounds extremely useful.
But yes, your gold estimates per unit are a bit low. It costs a bit more to maintain the unit sizes they are doing so and their cs numbers seem just huge for Dwilight's standards. If PeL could pull just 1/3rd of the strength that they are with our third-half of their nobles we'd be fine in our war.
Solaria isn't that far off. Our 17 nobles are just shy of 10k, and we are currently refitting. Of course noble count isn't all that matters. Not that it is the most relevant number, but in terms of total economy Solaria has 3k to their 4k.
