How about adding a description to your post about what this mod actually does / adds ?

Very interesting. Creative expansion and good use of images already in the game. I would like to see you expand this more.

People are used to seeing an "all view" and abit more description. You should be able to edit the first post of this thread to keep it caught up.

You have a folder for one god. That can get confusing and hard for people to clean up later. It would be better to use one folder named the same as the .dm file and keep all the gods in that.

The description of dream lord says more than it seems to have. Its very interesting but I dont see anything giving it the desuction that the description seems to say.

Re: Immortal Pretenders
 

Blood Angel was an earlier project that I incorporated into this one. Once I get to spriting the folder structure will change. It's an alpha release at present. The use of pre-existing sprites is so that I can distribute the concept and get feedback on the concept without having completed the artwork.

The Dream Lord is supposed to Horror Mark anyone who attacks it and be an assassin. I had originally planned to give it "seduce", but then I thought that perhaps that would be too much and removed it. Apparently I forgot to take it out of the description. I'm still undecided on the idea of the seduce portion as it seems ok when you compare him to the other assassin pretender (Lord of the Night), and consider his generally weaker stats. Of course, immortality, horror marking , and ethereality are quite a powerful bonus for an assassin pretender already, so I think I'll leave seduction to the ladies.

Re: Immortal Pretenders
 

Note that if you give him seduction, but keep it male, the seduction will only works on one of the few female commanders and will rarely be more than an assassination attempt

Re: Immortal Pretenders
 

Bleh... Then it's not even worth bothering in the first place. As for the probability, I bet it would work quite frequently if I upped the morale check to 18.

Re: Immortal Pretenders
 

In my balance mods, I have a male commander with seduction.
He also has a shapechange to a female shape

(actually, now that I think of it, I replaced the succubus with an improved succubus, which can shape change into an incubus).

That's just twisted, Chris.
