Mostly less powerful. White Ones can reincarnate on occasion, too.

No. Leadership bonus from magic items gives Awe, after a total of about +100 extra leadership. From magic items.

Innate leadership has no effect on what items are needed for Awe.

To nail it down, a combined normal leadership of +100 from items gives Awe +0, only of interest for units that don't have Awe yet. Every +25 leadership after that increases Awe by an additional +1. Here are the items that give normal leadership:

+25:
Champion's Trident
Sceptre of Authority
Whip of Command
Sun Sword

+50:
O'al Kan's Sceptre
Twin Spear (both of them)
Sceptre of Corruption
Crown of Command

+100:
Crown of Overmight

An Ettin (three hand slots, two head slots) can get up to Awe +8 with that.

So a Wyrm can get +5? Awsome!
I wonder what the highest is for one of those 4-handed gods

How do you get to Awe +5 for a Wyrm? It has two head slots and no hand slots, so I think the best it can do is:
  • Crown of Overmight (+100)
  • Crown of Command (+50)
Combined bonus: +150

If lch has the formula right, that should be Awe +2, not Awe +5.

On the other hand, one of my Davanas (one head, four hands) could have:
  • Crown of Overmight (+100)
  • O'al Kan's Sceptre (+50)
  • Sceptre of Corruption (+50)
  • Twin Spear (both of them) (+50)
Combined bonus: +250

Again, if lch is right, the Davana gets Awe +6 from all of that. Nice, but I'm giving up a lot of slots that could be used for other things. Still ... good to know!

Hey, even you would freeze seeing an Etting with all those bauble on :shock:


@SlipperyJim: I bet mr Gandalf's talking bout the Wyrm at dom10, thus at Awe+2... The way we usually take it :)

I think a 4-armed god could get to Awe+9 then... Maybe we understood why the DoW doesn't come with Fear too, even if it would be thematical IMHO :D

You didn't count that there's two Twin Spears. Maybe I should have written "either of them", they give +50 each. The combined leadership bonus would be +300, resulting in an Awe +8 like the Ettin.

...the Banefire Strike that comes with the King of Banefires has a built-in Plague effect in addition to Decay? Sometimes SCs *don't* need forged equipment to devastate an army...

Kurgi's Gift causes insanity (around 12 but gradually increases)

In addition to more accurate scouting reports over normal scouts, spies can see things like the exact amount of PD in a province, unrest amount, and the number of revealed magic sites (though not which specific sites they are).

Won't you be able to check them via F1?
