A new version of this mod will be up soon with a fix to the headslot issue introduced in 3.08.

What's so wrong about two-headed Dryads? lol

Dryads have lost a head!
3.08 compatible version is attached to the original post, enjoy!

I will be working on an overhaul of this nation in the future. I plan to replace the in game graphics and some of the exterior graphics with new custom graphics, as well as adding more summon units and tweaking some existing spells.

Without combing the thread for spoilers, am I supposed to not have any commanders with map move AND magical leadership?

Foodstamp · #5 June 24th, 2007, 11:44 PM

yup

. I will give you a hint though. Summon Nymphs and have them "persuade" commanders to join your forces. Since you did not want to read through the thread, the nation is supposed to play different than any other nation and be very challenging for a human player. The AI ignores the 0 map movement and plays this nation quite well if you want to use it as an enemy in SP games.

P.S. The Change to swarm pretty much broke one of the national spells as far as balance goes. When I update the graphics and overhaul the spells, I will be fixing that.

Thank you for your answer. So no magical leadership. I was confused because I misread the following to hint that there was magical AND mobile leadership. There is certainly pleny of magical leadership, just not mobile. Thanks for clarifying, guess I have to go find and seduce the wolf tribe now. Unfortunately, all I've found are the Amazonian women, and they don't swing that way.

"In order to lead your nonmagical freespawns, you will have to use creative thinking involving the Nymph commander."

Any chance of talking you into modding in an equivalent male commander so I can seduce those hetero amazons?

No way seducing women ATM. The only way to get women (besides the expensive Charm and other such ways) is Belial the Lord of Corruption, who has the Dominate Monster ability.

Thank you for that. We can always use more nations that make use of AI pros and cons.

It would be fun to play with this one set as allies to Pangaea and Oceania. A 3-way empire to play against.
