On second thought they are better implemented through various other means, as they really are quite diverse. For Dawn, awe and/or fear, for Zenith a weapon that destroys undead, for Night glamour, etc.

Well, currently, the Dawn gets Fear, Zenith minor awe (I can't give them Undead-only Fear), Twilight gets Regeneration (but less HP), Night gets Stealthy (+30)/Spy/Assassin, and Eclipse gets better Awe.

I might give the Dawns Awe as well, which would fit, and give them the little bit of 'oomph' they need to get over the top.

You could do the Lunars by doing them over Machaka, this would allow you, what, 4 shapechanging commanders. Just overwrite Sorcerer, Soreress and the spider riders with Lunars (without using the #clear command) and their other forms (riderless spiders) with the changed forms. This would, I believe, give you two classes of Lunar, those that change shape from the first scratch and revert after battle, and those that change form after the first form dies. Haven't tried though, so don't know if this works for sure.

I could, but I don't think I'm going to. I'll simply have the Lunars in War form. Glamour will be reserved for the Fair Folk, and the Changing Moons. The Night definitely _won't_ get it. It's just antithematic.

I like the idea of Machaka, but it'd be hard to get them right without losing the shapechange ability. And besides, IIRC, Machaka's shapechanging is involuntary. I definitely want the Lunars to shapechange voluntarily.
