S2 only costs around 56 points, and S3 is 80, which is definetly good value for the cost.

Titan - 100 points would be a better deal for a dubious blessing choice.
75% lightning resist is a huge blessing against certain nations. Especially when you consider those nations with expensive and hard to replace sacred troops. Air 9 is also extremely powerful for battlefield magic.

Father of Serpants - 100 points seems more reasonable for a second-tier SC.
If he didn't run when the serpents died, he'd be very good. Nature and death magic frees up a life draining weapon, regeneration item, and gives 50% elemental resist, which is pretty good.

Quote:
Great Mother - Bad stats for a SC, Prohibitively expensive for a dual-bless base, 80 point paths don't add up to 75 points.
She has terrific stats for smashing regular troops. In only dominion 3 or 4 she'll have 330+ hitpoints. Add on invulnerability, earthpower, iron will, personal regeneration, and strength of gaia. You can get her regeneration over 50-70 points per turn.

Lord of the Desert Sun - Very cool avatar that costs too much. 100 points seems more reasonable.
He's fire immune, and makes a great support mage, in addition to being hard to kill once he gets his buffs going. Maybe a bit overpriced.

Quote:
Scorpion King - Needs a body slot and he's a very competitive pretender.
I think that he should almost certainly have a body slot, which would make him very good. Right now he's marginal.

Quote:
Monolith - Immobiles suck. Free please.
The monolith is a perfectly servicable caster SC chassis, so I definetly wouldn't want to see it any cheaper.

I'd definetly like to see some more viable choices, but many of the ones above aren't that bad.
