Except he flies, which is enough to make him the best candidate in my view. And the demonic flag isn't really a disadvantage: it's not easy to banish an enemy prophet with such a high MR, OTOH being immune to diseases and a few other nastinesses is neat.

Re: Really special prophets
The Banishment spell actually does damage also, and the Last time I tried a demonbred prophet (the Back to the Fray noob MP game), he got crippled by literally the first H2 indie priest he ran into. Smite Demon will kill these buggers in one shot, two at the most, and it's available for a measly H3 priest. Been there and done that, if others like them, fine, but it's not for me anyway.

It does damage only when the target fails its MR check. Smite Demon likewise. It seems you've been extremely unlucky with your Demonbred prophet. A ring of AM should fix that!

Re: Really special prophets
Hm, I wonder if the Skeptic should change unit types if prophetized. Would seem a bit strange otherwise.

Excellent point!
Wow, I never knew about any of these! Probably partly because I haven't played much with those nations yet!

Re: Really special prophets
Arryn's site. She's got an updated one. It's not quite the latest, as the as yet uncopmpleted Magic Site DB project turned up a few additions and changes (some Magic Site recruitables missing from the relevant section, namely moon mage, lamia, minotaur and some other), and the flying form of the Siren lists fist as weapon instead of claw (29) but otherwise it's accurate.
The file is in her DL section under the Unit_ID title, though the actual file name has been changed.
