Damn good summons though.

Actually, a pity. This makes it just like Elemental Royalty in being the price for the first player reaching needed research instead of a unit usable instead of Tartarians...

It's a good thing firebird isn't all that hot (harhar...har...) considering the cost and compared to other late-game summons and options. I'd take a Zmey or save the gems for crafting any day of the week over a firebird. Though maybe that's because I don't know the full power of a firebird?
So far I only see it as a weak/mobile fire mage, admittedly useful if you have no national access to fire. The luck effect seems useless since it's only applied to the province it's in, considering that you probably have 10+ provinces by the time you can summon it this effect can be dismissed.
What I'm unsure of is that its description seem to imply it auto-cast solar brillance in battle, though I'm not seeing this on the wiki (I should test this...), if so this would be a different matter. Maybe it can even pierce Mandeha's anti-solar darkness effect like forbidden light does hmmmm...
Finally, if its luck effect actually affects crossbreed/ transformation/ void gate summon like luck scales does, I'd be racing for this hot, sexy bird!
