What's y'all opinion on marches? Do you use them, do you think the mil buffs are worth the drawbacks, do you avoid them?
I like to use them, having a bunch of lil niggas carpet sieging behind me as I focus on going from fort to fort, and they chase those annoying 2k armies I can't be bothered to deal with.
In my current historical Ardabil to Shia Persia game I have three, Armenia, Yemen and Gazikumukh, but I'm thinking about annexing Gazi. Thought about annexing Armenia but then I watched them win battles vs the Ottomans with equal numbers, so maybe they deserve to live after all. Plus, they're my little Coptic pet in a green sea of Shia that's been there since day one (technically 1457).
