Great mod!
I've looked at all the pretenders, and a couple of things stand out. The Angel of Death is precision 30. If I'm not mistaken, that's the highest in the game. Is that deliberate? I'm not quite sure why he'd be all that good an archer. Scythe swinging seems more his style. Most of the other pretenders are pretty cool. I can't seem to get the holy-requiring spells though. They simply don't show up anywhere, except for revelation, which shows up as a battle spell. I'm pretty sure its not supposed to be. They do however, sound pretty cool from the mod descriptions. One other thing: what happens if somebody summons a unique summon that has a similar/identical pretender?

Thanks!
Precision 30... hmm, maybe a typo, I can't imagine why GR would need that. Not even very theme-consistent. I'll drop it on the next revision.
Most of the holy spells I've added are set up as rituals, and they show up in the commander menu. At least in my test games! I"m betting you are not seeing them because (a) your commander doesn't have enough Holy juice (most require Holy 2+), or they haven't been researched yet. I decided to make a number of those Holy spells, unlike the default (which are not rituals), researchable instead of research level 0, to make them show later in the game. "Revelation" would probably be safe to show immediately, however...
Regarding summons...
On my Menhirs (which are technically pretenders too, for a few, since I'm copystats-ing a couple pretenders to get their special effects). Gametesting shows no problem summoning multiple versions.
For "Trap Visitor".. Kind of cool actually. If you have the Visitor, and somebody casts the spell... they "steal" the Visitor from you.
Regarding the other summons, like Queen of the Sea / King of the Earth... Hmm. Good question, I haven't playtested casting the spell when the summons Pretender is in play. I *presumed* it would behave like when you cast "summon queen of the sea" too many times... e.g., nothing, the uniques are already in play. Anybody have any guesses?
