Re: End game diversity mod
Since I have joined 2 EDM MP and its all 60-70 turns now, here's my feed back:
Zmey:they are very good raiders in mid games. They can easily take down 20+ pd, they can fly, and spell like mind hunt or soul slay have to success 3 times. Even a teleport sc may be tear down before he/she cast self buff. "May be", though, so I wont risk them in late games, following army as thugs would be enough. In one game TC have summoned about 12 zmeys but been hunted down by abysia one by one.
Shishi can kill a tartarian titan! But in other occasion, it is not so impressed.
Cyclops: It may be a good sc, but seems people who summon it would prefer to use it as E3 mage to cast armies of XX or earthquake
Wendigo: As sc, it is not as powerful as many other summons. But it is eventually a D4 mage! D4=cheap tartarian summoner! 24W is so cheap that you can even mass it as life drain/skelly spam/undead mastery caster
Asynja: Very powerful raider of cause, but i have to say i'm disapointed when three of them been swarmed by devils, summer lions and even Scorpion beasts.....Anyway, not a good sc doesnt means its not a good A mage. With a high chance to be A3, it is an excellent BE caster for non air nations.
Grendelkin: It is a surprise that they can be so powerful. True, they dont perform well as raiders, but followed with an army, they are excellent anti-sc OR SC. give them some anti sc weapons, few sc could stand against their strength, while give them a midget smasher, and buff quickness, its.....terrible. In one game two player summoned about half a dozen each and going to throw them to each other. But on the other game, one player summoned at least a dozen as raiders, yet many been killed by ghost riders.....
Treants are too costy, few people would spent 40N on them. But if you are rich in N while have little difficulty in tartarians(like me in one game, at the brink of destruction), summon them would give you a surprise. Sure they are good raiders when in forest, but following an army they are more powerful, thanks to its multiple weapons. give them a fire brand and a sword of quickness, they can cut down sc like Asynja easily. Oh, did I mention that if you give it a flying carpet, it will able to move while rooted? A bug of cause, which saved a command"change shape"
Will add ember lord and others later
