Yeah, pretty much no scenario where +1 Erosia front from large army size makes a difference if everything else is optimal. If you have 30 Erosian Front by the first fheliel rp check your Erosia front has essentially already won, and there's no merit to not using Mestan to do that unless you want to settle for less than 15 Ghenelon assist because your ghenelon assist is an odd value so Mestan's +1 can never help it get to 15 unless you miss a free boost.

So few extra caveats for my ideal setup in the previous post because of new information from new updates: The elven investments need to be bought before the war because the region is blocked off after. This forces the purchase of the slightly undesireable denmiel archives investment which drops my playthrough income a little bit. The addition of +2 Sabitha RP for having the right research forces me to research dari's cure instead of HQ defenses to make up the ghenalon help value lost from the ghenalon research, which costs me another 250000 Pron for wendis defenses as well(For playthroughs where I whore qum this is not a huge problem, just lose the givini teahouse and smithing, and succubus armorer. For playthroughs where I don't whore qum this means missing both the teahouse and stineford Weapon shop which hurts a lot more. Losing the teahouse also means I can't copy anyone in givini in the succession crisis too because of elleani RPs, but still not convinced that would be worthwhile)

Orc Sphere seems necessary to get the best results from the war overall, as you can't max sabitha RP without it and vhala's plate is no net gain over it otherwise(+1 Erosia vs. +1 ghenalon)

Final War Stats: Erosian Front: 32 Tower Front: 29 Ghenalese Front: 32 Path Score: 27 FL CD: 0 Ghenalon Assist: 18

Left the supplies, used the seed on the fucklord, ghenelon support is on, all the Kyangan investments were bought with the 400k extra proN I carried over.

Expected Returns: 4665000/4585000(whored/unwhored)
