Default Re: Hello everyone, and I could use some advice.

The Prince of death is not immortal. His dominion is lower and each path costs 10 more.

Compare with the Lich queen. Basicly she has:
+1 magic, poor amphibious, other magic, other slots
The Ecclesiarch has:
30 points cheaper, +6 holy, Inquisitor, awe and fear.

The creature type is minor, the resistences somewhat balance out, pillage and patrol are minor, unless they are insanely high (like close to 100) and likewise fortune teller is minor unless it's really high (50 or more)

Still, this 6 holy and inquisitor are a serious combination, especially with a dominion 4 Pretender. You can get 8 or even 9 dominion strength quite cheap and then it's like:
-Step into provine
-preach a turn
-dominion is yours for sure.

This ability by itself should be quite expencive but next there is te synergy with immortality.

I would definitly say: Not below 150 points, or it might be better to reduce the holy to 4 points, just to be save.
Patrol, Pillage and Fortune Teller are all 20/each.

But yes, I see the point about the dominions. I wouldn't want to lower the priest level (because under all circumstances, I'd like it to be higher than any base commander, who's maximum is 5 (4 + 1 Prophet), but how about lowering initial Dominion to 2, instead of 4?

Note though, that the Ecclesiarch also have overall lower stats than the Lich Queen, with the only exception being Leadership.

Edit: Bah, spelling errors. I've been up for waaaay to long at the moment.
