Well they would not have to be the full power of Kithaironic lions. They could be somewhere in between.

Still think assassin ability works better. He gets normal lions as a meatshield. Fire and Nature magic are very potent spells for one on one battles. I tried this configuration out and it seems fairly interesting. A Pretender Assassin is powerful in the early game when he can fight inside his own dominion. Later this ability become more of a gamble since the lions provide little support against higher tier commanders with bodyguards.

Also gave the Moloch the assassin ability. I didn't try it out for any longer period but it seems imps are a lot more powerful in one on one combat.

Anyone got a clue on how to make the Mother of Lions useful? I haven't come up with a reason to select her as a pretender (and the graphics are odd. I can't make out her head). In the end I simply removed her from the Pretender pool together with other "hopeless cases".

Both the Moloch and the Lord of the Desert Sun have to be used differently from other pretenders, which to my mind is a *good* thing. I find both useful just as they are. If you must have a pretender who operates strictly solo, then choose something else by all means, but that those two come with auto-summons is interesting for variety's sake.

This weekend will be a new release of the SpellMod as well as the initial Release of the ScaleMod. If you would like to try out a blitz with them try the IRC channel during the weekend.

No preview of the mods so people can prepare (and thus possibly get a blitz started a little more quickly)?

I think Zen is still putting the finishing touches on things, but we are planning a blitz using the mods at 3pm today at the usual place - irc.gamesurge.net #dominions

It sounds interesting... But 3pm in what timezone?
