Thing is, Great Mothers have natural regen (the two-headed snake icon), so PO'd Oprah was getting back like 19-20 HP a round. Those militia just got super lucky.

Sure, but the bless stacks with natural regeneration. The Great Mother has only the one attack along with, frankly, poor protection and defense, which means if you aren't boosting those that the regen is even more important. Also of major relevance is that he is a Giant nation so it would be very good for his troops as well.

The one attack thing is pretty meaningless against smaller troops, because she has built in trample.

And all the damage to kill her happened in 2 turns, so more Regen would not have helped much.

2 rounds? drat, my condolences.

Like, okay, check this concept. Ermor currently gets +1Death Gem per temple. How about instead of that, they had relatively common events where a province in their Dom for long enough would get 1 or more +Death or +Astral gem sites. Suddenly those provinces have the same advantage to Ermor that they also had, but other nations would start looking hungrily at them as a rich source of gem income. Or perhaps base it on the presence of their Bishops of Eldregate or something.

It would A) make them more rewarding to conquer and B) force them to shuffle some of their fragile high-cost goons out there to generate sites, giving them some high-value targets that other players could attempt to strike at.

But that's just My Thoughts On Videogames.

The Skaven mod actually does something like this. Skaven dominion generate sites that give Death and Earth gems. Granted, the sites also are "used up" and no longer give gems after a while. On the plus side, if you build a lab in the province, it will blow up and re-open the site. Skaven!
