*Insert joke about people who consider multi-tentacled monsters "lucky".* http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif


I'd like to see few of them being commanders, myself. A small chance for any given crossbred creature being commander could give some interesting options. If Cave Drakes with Flying Carpets can be the bast of a thug-team...

Re: Any changes in crossbreeding?
 

Random thought:

An earth/blood variant of crossbreeding (crossforging?) would be nifty. Instead of naturish powers like poison or regeneration, you get a load of creatures with weapons instead of hands and armour grafts. Rarer powers could include a siege bonus, flame attacks, pillaging and various projectiles.

Yeah, I always wanted to see some huge horrific creature from crossbreeding. Give it a 5% chance to appear maybe? Also there should be 1 better unit then ettin as a "normal" crossbreeding unit, maybe with a 10-15% chance to appear with the highest luck scale?

That would be awesome in a sick way. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/shock.gif

Re: Any changes in crossbreeding?
 

Why not just add more powerful but rare creatures, and make all the rare creatures a little more common? It'd be boring to get one unit, even a good one, too often.

I'd like to see more Blood/Earth spells, and Sandman's idea sounds interesting. It could probably be made as a mod that replaces all Crossbred monsters with half-machines, even in DomII, but a new spell would be nice.

A fine Japanese tradition, the octopus is a symbol of virility and fertility...

I'd love to see something like the Abominations from Warcraft III, maybe even a creature infected with poisonous spores that explodes when you kill it. Or you could make the majority of the crossbreeds have poisoned blood that inflicts a weak poison on their killers/people around them when they get injured/die. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Now that Kris is visiting the forum, I had to revive this thread. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif
I really think that this spell shoulg get some upgrade in a patch. [We should be able to create more types of monsters with Cross Breeding, also some rare and powerful monstrocities should be added.] http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Re: Any changes in crossbreeding?
 

I conjure you, by that which you profess,
Howe'er you come to know it, answer me:
Though you untie the winds and let them fight
Against the churches; though the yesty waves
Confound and swallow navigation up;
Though bladed corn be lodged and trees blown down;
Though castles topple on their warders' heads;
Though palaces and pyramids do slope
Their heads to their foundations; though the treasure
Of nature's germens tumble all together,
Even till destruction sicken; answer me
To what I ask you.

I invoke the lords Illwinter!
