Default Re: RATE this pretender (not über) and give tipps !

Found the problem, it came from your #clear command ... You put it *after* the #name, so it get erased ! In the original Mod a God there's no #clear command, but it's better to put one in order to get rid of all original attributes.
Put the #clear before the #name, this way it works :

#selectmonster 120
#clear
#name "Modded God"
#spr1 "./modagod/wraith.tga"
#clearmagic



(edit) Grrrrr, Wauthan made it a minute before me !

hey thanks, that did it.
Too bad i've got another problem.

both the #awe and the #standart command dont work. Did those commands changed, too ?

Ive redone my pretender without the #awe, but i still want the standart effect..

look at the new files, and tell me what you think about it. Im curios what you think about the ethereal, i guess both immortal and ethearal is too strong ? in addition it doesnt feel very rpg-like, ill guess ill stick with just the immortal as it seems to fit better with the background as well.

If you take out Ethereal, it would be OK, simply because immortal does not work to well for assassins and spies, who operate in enemy dominion. Also, make the bow "Strength Not Added".

Why does it have a "#gcost"?

Default Re: RATE this pretender (not über) and give tipps !

Just a thought. I thik an immortal assasin pretender is more powerful than an etheral assasin one.

Immortal can actually work quite well for an Assasin Pretender, considering the Pretender makes 1 dominion check wherever he/she/it is. So you could wait in unfriendly provinces a short bit, convert the masses, then let loose your murderous instinct (can also bring along a stealth prophet for double the speed... interesting if not necessarily a winning strategy). And if you failed in assasination, just try again ^_^

Most of the time the pretender dominion conVersion is quick enough that you don't have to wait long, except if enemy prophet/pretender is there/nearby. Hmm... assasinating enemy pretender in his/her/its own capital on a regular basis...

As for etherealness, that can be acquired easily through Robe of Shadow (Con4 S2, easily done for most nations). So for a powerful assasin pretender, I think Immortal works better (in SP anyway), and should be more expensive. I could be wrong though, consider I never played MP...

Just my 2 cents,

-Gateway103

#standard works if you use the correct spelling.

And if we're nitpicking spellings and suchlike:

"...and finally kill the one who sent him here."
