I still don't know how much you paid for that, but I'll reduce it to 1-2.

I didn't pay for it yet. That was just a price check. Thanks for the reduction though.

To clarify, the following structures provide reasonable amounts of Influence:
  • Unique buildings (e.g. opulent temple to Azem)
  • Aligned natural features (e.g. a "mirror" of fused sand in the desert for The Light)
  • Monuments (e.g. The Light's Multiprism)
While you may argue that each building is unique because of the exact arrangement of atoms and stuff like that, uniqueness here does not really work that way, or you would be able to make randomly shaped rocks unrelated to your sphere and claim that they are unique structures. In general, the cost of the project increases the amount of Influence the structure generates.
So do the Constellations and Skyfeatures other people created help them, me, or both of us? (Assuming the Skyfeatures help my Influence Score at least, which they probably do...)

The point is, they're the biggest mortals around and are capable of eating everything else. Angels don't count because they're immortal.
Personally, in a land with magic and swords and sorcery, I wouldn't be confident the giants could sure firedly defeat anything they fight.

They don't have to. They just have to consistently be able to do so. Which they....wait a minute, swords? Have you never watched Attack on Titan? They have specialised swords specifically designed to kill them and they STILL get slaughtered by the titans. But anyway, few people have the magic required to be able to take a titan on in a one-on-one fight. Then there's the Humanos Controlados...

That depends on if they're normal swords or someone made a necromantic sword of death touch yet. And I highly doubt your giants are as hard to kill or have the regeneration factor of the titans...

They're big, but that doesn't keep a group who knows what they are doing from winning.

Or, all the things the Gruen have access to:

1. An Archangel
2. Poisson
3. The fact you need a human to pilot them
4. Camouflage
5. Divine intervention
6. Starvation (The god of hunger IS your enemy, and those things take a lot to feed)

6 ways off of the top of my head.

I don't think any of the current gods are even capable of creating necromantic swords, save Joha, but it would take her a lot more Essence than it would a god of death. Humanos Grande are easier to kill than titans and have a healing factor equivalent to humans.

A group would probably win against a Humanos. I'm talking about a one-on-one fight.

The Humanos are actually half-sentient. They don't need to be told to do something to do something so if they get attacked they WILL fight back, but their free will can be instantly overriden by an angel of Yaos. If the illusionist cuts off their hearing, they won't be able to get ordered around by angels but they'll still fight back against the person or people trying to harm them. Oh and the Controller Angels can tell them what to do psionically. It's the most efficient way to control a hundred Humanos Grande at the same time, after all.

Or a bird person drops rocks on them from above.

They are not unbeatable. They are very beatable. But there are no giant rock-dropping birds in the world so they are top food chain.

Or, all the things the Gruen have access to:

1. An Archangel
2. Poisson
3. The fact you need a human to pilot them
4. Camouflage
5. Divine intervention
6. Starvation (The god of hunger IS your enemy, and those things take a lot to feed)

6 ways off of the top of my head.
Things that humans have access to:
1. The Angel-Emperor of Mankind (an archangel) with a fire sword made by the god of weapons himself
2. Flamethrowers
3. 1,000 Humanos Grande that don't need pilots
4. More flamethrowers (and Humanos-sized grenades)
5. Divine intervention
6. HUMANOS GRANDE AND ANGELS DON'T NEED FOOD, SILLY N'WAH. THEY ARE SOLAR-POWERED AND IMMORTAL, RESPECTIVELY.

2. Poisson
Do not question the power of Summoning Bigger Fish!
Indeed. See: Aev'a


I will say now that there are TWO ways to kill a Humanos Grande. Decapitation is NOT one of them. Technically. It certainly does help with one of the methods.

I wonder if any Gruen have grown to that size yet. Technically, I don't believe they have a limit on how big they can get over time if they eat enough.

15 metres tall? I doubt it. Even then, animals > plants of equal size. Rule of nature. Plus, I have 1,000 of them. Any 15 metre-tall Gruen - if they even exist - would me much rarer than a Humanos Grande.
Ready to make peace talks? :P /joke This is a joke. Please don't take it seriously. For humour only.

Haha thanks for clarifying.

It was more idle curiosity than anything else. Gruen that big would be of high status and not likely on the front lines. If there are any, they'd be the commanders and administrators of the Gruen.

Um, just to remind you, but both Enchantment and Necromancy are both types of magic that mortals have access to, and mortals aren't idiots...
