Once committed to a fight, cut. Everything else is secondary. Cut. That is your duty, your purpose, your hunger. There is no rule more important, no commitment that overides that one. Cut. The lines are a portrayal of the dance. Cut from the void, not from bewilderment. Cut the enemy as quickly and directly as possible. Cut with certainty. Cut decisively, resolutely. Cut into his strength. Flow through the gaps in his guard. Cut him. Cut him down utterly. Don't allow him a breathe. Crush him. Cut him without mercy to the depths of his soul. It is the balance to life: death. It is the dance with death. It is the law a war wizard lives by, or he dies.

They seem reasonably balanced. They might be slightly on the weak side because of the -1 economy, but it's hard to tell if the other pluses would offset it. Do you want this faction posted on The Arrival (http://ac.strategy-gaming.com)? I'm sure other people will want to see it.

As has been said many, many times before -1 Economy is a total joke. The entire effect of -1 Economy is -1 energy at your HQ.

So with -1 Economy your faction will generate ONE less energy point than a faction perfectly equal to you. Whopdee doo.

That leaves us with -2 Probe. Which I, personally, do not think compensates for +1 Morale, +2 Planet and a free Rec Commons.

Ante-up the Economy hit to -2 or just forget about it and try something else.

No, it makes it hard to get to the vital +2 Economy.
