I like them better as soulless - no longer have to pay income on them I imagine a goal will be to get consistent ways to have the blessed mages converted to soulless to save on income - maybe the life leeching spells that target troops around you?
Thanks Geo thats really fabulous news!!

At this point I'm struggling to say wether the new themes for races or the bless effects are the most interesting addition to design possibilities. To be honest I was critical of the lack of design possibilities with powerful/tight synergy in Dom I but Dom II, for me, is potentially even better than Stars! for race design possibilites.

Thanks for that Geo,

Don't worry, be happy . . .
