Baba Yaga??
 
I was wondering if the Crone was inspired by any particular myth or legend. I was reading up on some Slavic folklore today, and I think that the personification of Baba Yaga would be an awesome addition to Doms3. I was thinking Crone specifically because I've always liked the idea of an Old Witch pretender leading Ulm, but rarely choose her because she seems to me a little bland compared to the other awesome choices available!

See creature 1958, the Bogarus hero Bada Yaga the Crone.

The crone isn't bad for nations that do not require a SC Pretender. She is a
cheap rainbow and she trades her armour slot for two miscelaneous item slots.
Just don' forget to get some nature, so that she doesn't start with old age.

On the other hand, both Ulm and Bogarus need a SC pretender to be competitive,
whatever anyone tells you.

Wow, I totally skipped 1.14. I never even played Bogarus. This is eerie. Aw, they don't have a level 9 Indrik the Beast summon.... ;-)

Every units has a unique ID number. You can see this number by pressing shift+i when viewing a unit's description, but otherwise it doesn't matter in-game. The 1985th unit added to the game is Baba Yaga the Crone, one of Bogarus's heroes. If you have Dom3Database or one of the AllView maps, you can view her statistics by finding her from the unit list. Otherwise, it is probably faster to make a test game where you host 50 or 100 turns of single-player with Luck 3 Bogarus.

She has a really great pic too http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif, looks very menacing.

I've currently trying to make a more historically accurate (based on 16th century) mod. For now, I'm content with summons, as they are quite accurate as I see, & numerous enough. Do you want to take a part (especially with graphics)?

I love that Baba Yaga because of the old works of the Bogarus Mad Bard Modeste Petrovitch Moussorgski, the Gods may bless him in secula seculorum [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Cake.gif[/img]
