<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Well, he could get killed, but that comes to a cost of about 55 blood slaves. He's a demon, so I think he was rendered unaffected by disease as of the most recent patches. Being horror marked is merely a minor nuisance, and being cursed will only end his mostly nonexistent combat career. Plus you can always just kill him and resummon him. I doubt anyone's going to try to beat you to the draw when it comes to getting Mr. Icyfists there.

Is Hand of Death affecting UNdeads ?
Desciption doesn't say anything specific, but it'll be quite logical it shouldn't ... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif
To a pretender the prize is more of a liability than a benefit, if only the Arena could be restricted to Non-pretenders it'll be *a tad* funnier (in SP ! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif )

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">It wasn't done as a brave risk, I've never won a deathmatch as i almost exclusively play immbobile pretenders and I certainly dont think the game is easy, I entered to see what would happen knowing I was capable of restarting as I was so early into the game. This is single player stuff, I didn't end 5 other peoples games in a sulk.

I enjoy building themic empires and seeing things appear under a particular style, thats who I enjoy playing, Im not in the game to see a win message at the end. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Don't send pretenders, but be aware that if you're playing solo, the AI makes very poor equipping decisions so even AI pretenders aren't necessarily hard-to-kill in 1:1 combat. Early on, a Dusk Elder spamming summons will quite possibly do the trick...

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I would rather risk having him killed by attacking my enemies where I know he will take a good handful enemies or maybe a weak province if there's lots of cold in the province.
I like placing 5 dispossed spirits as guards which lets him do lots more killing.

So devils can't be affected by diseased anymore?
