Default Re: Eater of the Dead

I agree that the eater should get a huge boost. Since etherealness and high defence dont suit him he would need huge boosts in other stats so, for his final form how about this:
300 Health
30 Strength
20 Protection
15 Attack
5 Defence (a huge dead blob isnt exactly fast)
18 MR (otherwise he would be very easily killable, i would even consider raising it to the 20's)
30% Regen (for a total of 90 per turn!)
Recuperation
An AoE tentacle or 2, a few lifedrains and some sort of special attack.
Fear+15 (atleast)
Some sort of global effect

How about "Tentacle Rake" 3 attacks, armor piercing, 3 or 4 attacks with -6 str damage??

Another one would be it getting a Plague Cloud...

And/Or perhaps the Unfettered could spawn smaller Eaters of the Dead...

How about he builds a type of "Void gate" in the province he kills. Then summons more of him and bizzare evils to guard him.Then when he has powered up and has a small army of summons he goes eating provinces.

Meanwhile One of him that he has summoned stays in the province summoning more evils till a second army is formed around him and he goes eating leaving a third him to repeat the process.

Any unit entering the "Gate" province has a bad chance of getting a affliction each turn until the gate is destroyed. Only a Mage with a special group of powerups or skills can destroy the gate with a high chance of death or being feebled.

If the gate is left alone it has a chance of spawning a new Eater and other evils every turn. Along with bad random events in surrounding provinces.

Damned if you attack and damned if you don't.

Sounds cool, albeit complicated.

Yea, might be a real pain to program but sounds very nice (or should that be nasty?). Just make sure nothing he spawns can get quite as strong as him.
