Yomi Pretender design and general MP Strategy ?

Hey, I have another question - death gems - I think I have and will have more then I need - should I offer a trade for more needed earth gems (for forging helmets and armors for all the dai oni) ? If not what should I use them for ...

other than that everything is proceeding as planned =)

Ghost generals are worth the cost. You can never have enough death gems as Yomi I find. Even if it is just handing a few out for shadow blast.

Yeah you are probably right =) I remember when I had a second SP tryout a few days ago. I took Misfortune 2 and on second turn I got a ghost general random event (if that is the same guy as the summon), he was awesome. Too bad it didn't hapen in MP =) But I guess I can always summon them myself ...

What do you find Ghost Generals to be particularly useful for?

Maybe I am thinking of a different spell.

I am thinking of the ethereal samurai dude. I like them as thugs because I don't really have to equip them. They hold up enemies so my Dai Oni don't come into contact with anyone before they are done casting their buffs. They stop casting buffs when they come into contact with even chaff troops.

That, and they are undead, so darkness won't affect them.

I think that it's the same guy as from the spell. The green etherial samurai dude - fits the description perfectly =) he is pretty cool as a thug like you said, and is undead (and can lead magical beings) with leadership 120,if I am not mistaken, so having him as a commander of your hordes is nothing to sneaze at ...

Huh! I was expecting the high leadership to be part of it, but hadn't thought of using them as linebackers. Thanks for the tips.
