1. I summoned The Eater of the Dead, thinking how cool it would be to have a rampaging monster that attacks my foes.
2. After reading the description, I stupidly think how cool it would be to give it artifacts and cast Gift of Reason on it.
3. I VERY stupidly give it Nethgul the Starspawn and the Ark of the Covenant
4. I empower with level 3 astral magic to let it teleport.
5. I teleport it to a corpsey battlefield and let it eat
6. I watch as it digivolves into a giant monster and make it my prophet...
7. I then watch as it goes mad with power and obliterates a 125 point mage and blessing heavy militia and a fortress.


So, I was wondering, if I hadn't given it all those artifacts anyway, how do you defeat the vanilla Eater of the Dead?
Cuz it appears to be decimating everyone on the maps' armies.
iirc, eater of the dead is a unique for c'tis, right?
a way to kill him may then be a gazilion of poison-slinger, as their attack is aoe, thus , even if blinded, they should empoison the whole battlefield.
or the eater is poison immune?
