Re: Favorite Evil theme.
I personally prefer the Carrion Dragon. It's thematic and still a great combatant.
But then again, I've never done well with CW, so what do I know? ^^;

Re: Favorite Evil theme.
The carrion dragon is indeed very thematic for CW and is also a top tier SC pretender - definately one of the best for CW. With Zen's pretender mod, I'd include a couple of others as distinct possibilities - the lichs and PoD, for example.

Re: Favorite Evil theme.
Carrion Dragon but be sure to put the magics on him equal to the Pan-looking guy so you can create carrion leaders without having to buy a mage. OR I take Lord of the Wild to get the Maenads back that I lost by taking the theme. I also love making an assassin out of him later.

Sure - I think _any_ CW pretender you probably want N3 and D4 (at least D2) on. Even if you plan to recruit a Panic Apostate right away (and prophetize to reduce upkeep), it's handy being able to conjure up a carrion lord on the front lines with your pretender, not to mention finding magic sites to boost the nature and death income. Then add paths (since you have plenty of points) for forging, summonings, searching, and let's not forget, Super-combatanting.

Re: Favorite Evil theme.
I was wondering what would you guys think about CW if the Carrion lords would be able to summon each other, just like Dusk Elders do for AE?
Its very easy to do in a mod, and could lead to a lot of fun, but would it be balanced?

Re: Favorite Evil theme.
Well, you guys convinced me to play as the Carrion Wood theme. Its quite a change from my Arco style, I was wondering, how do I maximize carrion and manikin production? Also, I've never been big on buying expensive holy troops, but I'm testing out those dark centaur... are they really worth it?
Also, my pretender has 3 N, and 4 D, 1 B... any spell research\casting advice?
OH, and how many commanders should I have re-animating? or does it matter, i have 3 summoned undead Pans currently workin it.
thaaaaaaaaank. you
