Lychantroop's Amulet -- Becoming a Werewolf !??!?!

What are the consequences of becoming a werewolf? Does my heroic Niefel Jarl with over 100 HP lose hitpoints, casting abilities, size, etc?

I cant remember if they lose their casting abilities but yet, afaik those other effects take place.

So basically you will not be happy with the transformation?

Actually, there are now bigger werewolves. Skrattis can shapechange into size 4 werewolves at least. Hmm. But I think Skrattis would eventually turn into inferior werewolves if given the Amulet. It does produce some rather strange effects.

You don't want your Niefel Jarl to have that amulet. Basically it will turn him into a smaller unit the werewolf and he will always be on beserk in battle. He will still have his casting abilities to use outside of battle, but in most cases you don't want your giants to be wearing that amulet .

When Lychantropos amulet has turned whomever into a werewolf, can u remove it and give the amulet to someone else?

It's still Cursed, so no.

Hmm, so if you want to turn a regular indep recruited commander into a thug, this amulet might be an ok way to go about it... werewolf is stronger than regular crap commander, right?:/

If the Werewolf summoned by Call of the Wild are anything close to normal werewolves, they have 20 hp, att/def 12/11 (Bite attack might lower that to 10 if it's not already calculated in the def), good strength, some natural protection and normal slots (Lycanthropos' Amulet would take one misc, of course). They have some natural regeneration as well, which the amulet would probably increase further. Bite, claw, claw as natural attacks.

Ah...so this is what cursed means...it stops u transfering items from 1 hero/commander to another. Once they get them they r stuck with them. Searched the manual for an explanation of cursed to no avail.

Does anyway exist of removing such an item from a hero in Dom 3 without killing the hero? Preferably moving it to yr laboratory to be placed on someone else.
