Items (brainstorming)

[HoneyBadger]

I didn't have time earlier to comment on the books. I edited them a bit, not sure if they're overpowered or not. I don't think they're underpowered, but I also don't think I'd build a "grand strategy" around most of them. I hope someone likes them enough to put them in whatever mod this is leading up to.

They're meant more to be interesting than to be useful, since you really can't enter combat without losing them and possibly getting yourself killed by whatever horrible creature you've just awoken. It's kind of an "instant horror, just add water" dealie, except ofcourse for the Emerald Tablet. I just threw that one in for fun, to be the exception to the rule-and it has it's own problems.

If anyone seriously wants to use these, I'd be happy to provide detailed descriptions for them-some of them are based-atleast a little bit-on real (or atleast fictional) books, while others I have interesting backstories for.

Thanks for all the input, Endoperez. I very much appreciate it. If there's anything else you think could make them better, please let me know.

I'd really like a set of boots to forge that absolutely, positively, prevented a unit from fleeing a battle.

That's easy. Give it boots that makes the unit immobile.

A cursed armor that gives +30 berserk, however the unit that uses it dissapears after battle.

[Shovah32]

+30 berserk? Im hoping thats an artifact

[HoneyBadger]

How about items that temporarily allow (or force) transformation into a different unit?

[DrPraetorious]

I'm not sure. I don't think any of the current items give shapechange - and I'm not sure if there's any way to have an item turn you into anything other than a werewolf.

It depends on how the internal code is set up.
