I really like the Demon Lord that gets a free blood slave every turn. He's a badass by himself and the blood slave, while not incredibly useful, is fun to play around with.

Re: Your most favorite \'SC\'s you\'ve ever had.
 

Not exactly an SC, but one time I had a fort with a lab under seige, but not much defending it. So I gave a standard indie commander Winter Bringer, Sandals of the Crane and Marble Armour for added insurance. It actually worked rather well, teleporting around casting falling frost, the armour helping in the case of an unlucky teleport.

An Great Enchantress buffed with power from Wish, Ember, the Forbidden Light, some various nice equipment. She gets attacked by a horror, she laughs "haha horror", wipes it out in one hit. Attacks 700-ish sized AE-Ermor army by herself. "Haha Ermor". Kills most of it alone.

My next wish is to try out the Ark "ie., the Nazi Melter". Probably with Marignon and their sacred knights and flagulents. Kills, deseases, and blinds - no soup for you!

Sebadoh the vampire lord. The Aegis, a Shield of Gleaming Gold, Kurgi's Gift, Boots of Quickness, Awesome Presence, a Lucky Pendant, and a Horned Helmet. Hard. Core.

Update: On a related note, I kinda like it when certain commanders get afflictions. Gives 'em personality.

Updated update: By "SC", I mean "perfectly viable Soul Vortex casting, lifedraining SC chassis which instead opts to headbutt enemy armies into submission". I can only imagine what he'da been like with Heroic Quickness and a pair of Chi Sandals.

I once went a bit insane and gave a Succubus the Tartarian Chains, a shield (probably either a shield of gleaming gold), a wraith crown, probably boots of stone if they get foot slots, antimagic and luck talismans. Amon Hotep would be even cooler.

I've played with insanely-equipped Tartarians, in particular the guaranteed-E4 cyclops, w/ something like Magebane, Barrier, wraith crown, bone armor / Asfetik / Monolith / robe-of-invulnerability, boots of quickness or winged shoes, antimagic talisman, Chalice. att/def aren't that high, but they have high-enough hp that they don't care that much except against other SCs.

Limne, Queen of Elemental Water, can be brutal due to the extreme regeneration. Use a high-prot armor and a decent weapon, with Wave Breaker being extremely thematic.

A Queen of Elemental Air with Tempest is also quite thematic, and unlike most flying SCs can still fly past the enemy's front line even if they've got a Staff of Storms.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Why did you bother giving the Gift of Kurgi to a Vampire Lord? The only thing you accomplished was feebleminding him, as the Gift of Kurgi only grants Flying and Ethereal (and the ability to send horrors, but that's irrelevant), which are already innate abilities of a Vampire Lord!

Re: Your most favorite \'SC\'s you\'ve ever had.
 

it gives luck and +8 defense, but, yeah, not the chassis I would drop it on.

Re: Your most favorite \'SC\'s you\'ve ever had.
 

For fun, duh.
My Ice Devils were already handling the whole "winning" thing for that(SP) game. Honestly, no amount of defense skill justifies taking away a vampire's lifedrain.
Then again, +8 defense is nothing to scoff at, and regeneration is cumulative.
Still bloody stupid to give the thing to a BBBDDD mage, but it seemed appropriate at the time.
