Wow, the KHazad is totally crippled. I can't find one redeeming quality.
No mages, no hunters, no longbows, no horsearchers? And to keep your people happy, you need a ridiculous amount of gold on hand if you have a civ of any significant size. Kind of make domination a PITA.
I understand the benefits of an active defense (rather than depending on longbows), but when you've got your stack on the offensive, you need to feel confident that your home cities have *some* protection from a counterattack. Once your stack is deep into enemy territory, there's no coming back to defend. Am I just suppose to garrison cities with champions?
Not to mention that lugging around those siege weapons with no Raider attribute is SLLLOOOOWWWW. And haste doesn't work on siege weapons. I was really starting to enjoy stacks of fireball mages w/ haste and everyone promoted with Mobility.
And the world spell just gives more gold and less food. What's the point?
