First of all, sorry: I should have said that I imagine the Burrower to be a *commander* (with 0 leadership and 0 slots, like the Vastness), I imagine single pricey huge lurking underground beasts burrowing around, lonesome and strange.
I didnt like the Assassin's 30 stealth only because he is an assassin. The Worm, when Burrowed, won't be doing anything but recuperating, lurking, or eating rocks; he wont be killing people.
I love the idea of a burrower, but since dom2 doesnt support a WarcraftIII-like "Burrow" command (quelle surprise!), I think giving it high stealth would be the next best thing.

Anyhow, it is YOUR mod, so you do what YOU want! (I just thought this would be a spicy enhancement to your already excellent idea, and anyhow I cannot imagine putting armor of any kind on a 90 foot burrowing worm.)
Ah, now I see what you're suggesting. That could work, though I had already imagined that the burrowers were quite simple minded and not really capable of doing anything useful on their own. Maybe I would add a different burrowing creature to fit the niche. As for the armour, since there are many very large creatures leaving bones in the caverns, I assumed finding some to plate the burrower in would not be that hard (also the high resource cost accounts for this, though I could make it 100 or something, and lower the gold price). The assassin is only +25 stealth, but I will think about taking it down to 15-20. Anyway, thanks for your input.
