I dont think Astrum or Morek can muster 40kcs armies unless they figure out a way to get their militia to march with them. 20k I can see as plausible.

The Great Revolt - The Northern Theocracies stood strong and realistically unopposed for a very long time. Yet after a couple failed colonies and several missteps later, half the continent revolts against their influence.

Just an idea :P
The adherents of different religions in a realm should compete for power, influence, and fresh converts. They don't even have to be killing each other to do so. I wish people promoted the prosperity of their religions the same way they promoted the growth and prosperity of their realms. - Geronus

Indeed, those numbers are inflated by militia, I believe. The list says Phantaria has 12,000 CS but we certainly do not have that much mobile CS. With militia maybe.

As the player of the general of Astrum, I wish somebody would have told me I had over 50,000 CS at my disposal. This war would be a cakewalk if I had known.

Too bad I don't.  :(

Most of Astrum's CS comes from militia :p Everyone knows that.

Asylon - A savage realm with religious freedom, allowing any faith to be practiced within its border and defend the faithfulls right to do so, the home of the Bloodmoon Cult and known for its "odd" ways that seem very strange to non-Asylonians. A realm lead by King Grimrog and his council that with their elective Monarchy has shaped an old small colony into a mighty bear, awoken from slumber to reclaim territories lost. Warpainted Berserkers, Spearwielding Savages, Mounted Knights and Rough Rangers makes up Asylons army, a horde with little discipline known for raiding and hit and run tactics.


Edit.

As you all can see now, Asylon has taken a stand and joined their new friends in Niselur.

I believe that Astrum's movement was sluggish in the last war as well.  That is part of what Niselur is counting on.  The big risk is that wake a sleeping giant.

While there is always room for surprises, that does seem to be a very valid prediction. Especially for Morek. How Long would it take Luria Nova to march an army North? How likely is it that they will be able to strongarm their way through Swordfell (Who, btw, is placed in a most unenviable position between the two)?
Swordfell is going to remain neutral, there is a referendum going on whether to help D'Hara, but apparently it is going to fail.

Corsanctum, don't worry your realm is low on the target list.  You do have the hardest job mobilizing that nation.

Corsanctum doesn't take much to mobilize. "All five of you who aren't priests get to the capital!" :p

...Priests could become -brutal- in this war. Lots of realms following a single religion, lots of realms at war, RTOs...

Heh, yeah, not likely. Pretty sure the priesthood is going to be pushing hard for surrender at the first opportunity.

Any war to bring more regions to Itau is a good war.  ::)
