Sounds neat.

Personally, I always wanted to see a faction that could spam 'Summon Demon Knight' without having to go a long ways out of their way thematically or gameplay-wise.

Sounds fun!

How is this coming along?

I'm playtesting it a bit, Frank is working on artwork.

I'd meant to release this with the second half of the story but I'll just post it.

It still needs some work, this is version 0.1 though. I may have just broken some of the spells fiddling with them.

Nice on the artifacts, but somehow zero gold cost disturbs me. Especially if it looks like this. I would suggest adding "does not heal" to the list of attributes, too, because it does makes sense and would balance out these constructs.

Can't EA Pangaea spam Demon Knight w/ Pans? Or do you mean it's out of the way research-wise?

Thematically in the sense of 'what hell is EA Pangea doing summoning Demon Knights', gameplay-wise in that it involves recruiting a lot of pans doing the earth-boot shuffle. It's 'awkward' to the point of being disagreeable.

Before this mod the best feel I had with demon knights as a theme was DomII Diabolic Faith, and that required a pre-aranged pretender and a lot of recruitment. Here you have B2E2 nationals, which is a combination I'd like to see.

Great story, when is the next half?
