Item wish list?

I think various forgeable holy/unholy equipment would be nifty. Things like the Wooden Stake (nullifies regen and immortality), Holy Water (area effect, good damage to undead and demons but won't hurt others), Holy Symbol (+1 Holy and Awe). Unholy could have opposite effect of Holy gear (healing demons/undead, hurting humans, etc). LIke I said, would be nifty, but not necassarily good. To me, it doesn't seem thematically correct for a nation like Abyssia using Holy Water, whereas Marignon would. Maybe different nations get different forgeable gear? I dunno.

Why on earth would it nullify regeneration? There's no reason for a Lamia to have their regeneration turned off because of a piece of wood.

Sword of Eternity could grant Horror Marked and Never Heals -abilites as well...

I would like to have more helmets too, and boots wouldn't hurt either, but what would firey boots be like? No items should be added just because public wants them if they are not thematic and/or do ont fit in with the other items of the game.

Hmm, new Posts. Wouldn't Holy Water be effectively the same as Banishment? Maybe short-range, big AoE banishment, but still Banishment. Maybe the same item could grant penetration bonus, but then it would be used by pure mages in combination with Stellar Focus and/or Rune Smasher.

What would Holy items be like? Would there be new Holy gems?

The problem with most efforts at a MoM2 is that if they try to multiplayer it they do the balance like AOW:SM instead of like Dom2 does which kills the replayability. Especially any solo replay. (yes I do have AOW:SM also, and any other game that ever claimed to be a MoM2)

Linky?

Also, did you try Leylines?

I think I gave enough info for it to be googled Its not good to put too many links to other games on a gameboard.

And yes I did try Leylines. Not bad.

Sheer perversity once suggested to me an artifact Meteor Magnet that sometimes attracted Gifts from Heaven during battle. Since that spell is rather low PREC, the bearer might actually live decently long.
The KODP fan in me wouldn't mind seeing an item that cast Flaming Arrows, either.
Would it be thematic for kills (lifeless need not apply) with a Jade Knife in the hands of a blood priest to have a chance to count as blood sacrifices?
