Default Re: Mother Nature is pissed

That reminds me of another scenario idea.
To add a Wandering Monster, on a timer, so that it enters the game later.
#computerplayer 79 4
#god 79 "Eater of the Dead"

This should put in an AI nation with lots of population and an Eater of the Dead which will start out in a tamed form. Once it eats enough of the populace it will break out across the map. Since its a nation in the game, every time you play the map it will be randomly located someplace.

Maybe also set scales and give it a strong dominion. Im not sure how that might affect things but it sounds like fun. Putting in a bunch of ally commands might also make it not attack AI's. At least until it breaks loose.

Other options for the monster might be Eater of Dreams, Eater of Gods, Hunter of Heroes but Im not sure what those are and how they operate.

Im leary of getting into details and tempting one of the experts to tell me that I totally dont understand Eater of the Dead... but Im thinking
10 dominion
3 Death scales
3 ant-magic
3 anti-luck

You could even duplicate the setup 5 or so times. Setting it as nation 79, 78, 77, 76, 75. That would give you 5 of them on timers randomly scattered all over the map. Hurry and win the game OR ELSE!
