Re: Endgame Diversity Mod - Lategame summons, released at last!
Rdonj: I'm comparing Rocs to Tarts for diversification purposes, because llamabeast brought up diversification. Even at A3, Rocs are still inferior to tarts for diversification for 2 reasons: Rocs require a powerful mage in air to cast (tarts diversify into everything for just a d caster), and they require either starting with A3-4 to cast or summoning a faerie queen to just get started summoning them (or already have tarts). Note that Air is one of the least valuable paths to put on a pretender, whereas death is one of the most commonly splashed pretender paths (and you only need *d1* for tarts, a substantial saving. So for most non-air nations, Rocs aren't even going to be an option until Conj 8 anyway.
Line by line response to Sajuuk coming.
Edit:Rdonj, just how much wall breaking does a roc provide? Because 2 gate cleavers are clearly cheaper since you'll have a hammer for them.
