White Centaurs are not commanders anymore, they are sacred Centaur Warriors (also a new unit). Instead Pangaea has Hierophants (same as White Centaur before).

How about blessed effects for Unholy troops?

Ermor of Dom 1 gets the very good unholy knight, and it's the only nation who can afford an uber pretender. It'll give them huge advantage of blessing in Dom 2.

So, are the unholy knights in the Ashen Empire theme of Dom 2 blessable?

* Unholy undeads got their blessing removed every turn, fixed.
* Heavy music didn't always stop between battles, resulting in too much music.
* More generous strategic move system.

I'll let the Dom II progress speak ma' words...

Thanks .

It could make the knights of the Ashen Empire theme quite dangerous. But it'll all depend on how fast they're generated in the castle.

1 per 1 candle in the castle province?
Otherwise the mechanic could be pretty much the same as in Dom I, whatever the mechanic is...

I don't think this question ever got answered [even if there are no more white centaurs]. Can anyone say if the way things work mean that blessed troops of a nature-strong pretender will rush at the enemy, ignoring all orders? If so it seems like a major liability to me, rather than an advantage.

also, in Dom I bless effects were applied to priestly commanders. Is that the same in Dom II? If so, the effect I'm asking about would be an even bigger liability.
