What are "Heartcompanions" and "Demon Jesters"?
I saw their names mentioned on dom2progress page...
I think Heartcompanions summoned creatures because their cost was altered from 10 to 5(i think it was so...)...
Demon Jesters are at least something for Diabolic Faith theme...

Also, is Pazuzu a Demon Lord now?
And what's the "Belphegor's growing army"? Do you get...*grasp* units for free too? Can you control the army?

Dude, i'm so playing Mictlan with Diabolic Faith(if possible) and with a Moloch pretender when i get this game! I have alredy some intresting backstory for this nation/theme/pretender combo... I could post it...

I don't think there's any limit on Global spells. If so, I haven't hit it.

The Diabolical Faith dominion theme is, I believe, a Marignon theme. It postulates that the Inquisition failed to contain the heretical Ermor necromancers, and so made a pact with forces powerful enough to counter them: demons. They turned back the Death mages with the "aid" of their new partners/masters, but their faith was tainted. Demon worship is a potent force in a Diabolical Faith Marignon.

I'd have to double-check, but I believe the Demon Jesters are summoned via a Blood magic spell that will be available to anybody who does the research (and has the Juju).

Heart Companions are the sacred guardians of the Arcosephalean Priestesses. They are rough, tough, and expensive. Pretty cool though.

Don't know about Panzuzu. I think the "growing army" is what Johan just mentioned: auto-recruiting for Belphegor.

Shadow Bolt is a ranged spell that bypasses armor and has an area-effect paralysis effect on top of the direct damage it deals to a single target. I believe it is Death magic.

Oh, and BTW, good call on the Assimilation --> Imprint Souls, IMHO. MUCH cooler name.

Shadow Bolt: Nifty.

Hummm... What are the Demon Lords? How many? How powerfull?

Why do you have to find an evil theme for Mictlan? Mictlan are as have been said before pseudo-aztec. To my knowledge there is no cult in the history of the world as bloody as the aztec state cult. Most people would consider daily sacrifices and sacrificial ceremonies were thousands of people were brutally murdered by having their hearts cut from thier chests evil. If you feel the need to invent an evil theme for this nation you scare me

[Nerfix]

Feel free to be scared, but yes, i intend to find an evil theme for Mictlan. Mind you, Aztecs treated the willing sacrifices very well, infact one of my history books said that they treated the young men they sacrificed "like gods". As for the prisoners-of-war, many cultures killed as many slaves with diseases and starvation. Getting your heart cut is IMO mercifull compared to years of suffering as a slave before you die either because of disease or because of starvation.
That is what i know, you are a teacher, i am a school student, if you konw better, then please correct me.

And the sacrifices weren't daily if i remember corectly. Also, if you want a long, long post i can actualy explain why i want an evil theme for Mictlan...

Also, what are "divine titles"? You know you can't escape "Eyes of the Lurker"...
