But sean, what they do get is good modifiers on combat, and at least one priesthood 
almost wholy given to combat. Not the best.... but there are simply only so many ways
we can add plusses to dice to improve combat ability. The costs on priests buying
modifiers is better than the mages, nomads and augers.

Matt's note brings up a curious issue... Warriors get scads of combat
skills because they are on the Combat spoke of the Troika. Marines
get some combat skills because they are between the Combat and Skills
spokes. Now, what about priests? Aside from the Priests of T'or, they
don't get squat in terms of combat stuff, except for a slightly lower
cost on mods. They are between the Combat and Magic spokes. There is
no argument that they have magic. They're almost equal to mages in 
that respect. But in terms of combat...
