Default Re: Artificial Myth and the Endgame...

Yeah, Manikins would be ok, for the death tree, but I don't see lions growing on trees...Hama dryads would work for the Earth tree though-although for Norse humor, the tree could summon a great eagle once a year, and squirrels in combat, and then transform into a dragon that leaves after combat, when slain.

As much as I like the factory unit idea...I don't think they should make extremely powerful units, except occasionally, or in special cases.

One of the things I really like about Dominions is taking something that is, essentially, thematic, and forging it into a working strategy anyway.

I admit that function is important, but remember that this would be on top of what those units already can do in the game.

For the nature tree, I definitely see dragonflies, but maybe the treelord summons pixie (atomie, actually) knights mounted on dragonflies in combat? They'd survive 1 attack that way, and do magical damage until they lost their 1 hp knight. I was going to use them for a Faerie Court modnation, but they'd work here too.
