Npoe. It means some provinces with undeads have pisachas instead of ghouls or soulless. Poptype is still the same as in other undead provinces - crap slingers.

And reanimation is based on tha casters nation, not on province.

If we could MOD a list of our own poptypes without changing existing units the games would become more unique. Another idea is making the change of poptypes available with a map edit command.

Yup. That's up to JK. I have no idea of how much programming it would take. But generally I believe he is more inclined to add mod functions than changes in the game.

Regarding new icons, it would be a good thing to have an icon for communions which displays the boost to the magic levels, I think. For the masters and slaves, that you see how big their current boost to the magic levels due to the communions is.

The slaves level is raised for the purpose of fatigue. Is it raised for casting their own spells? (Assuming the master is not casting this round. Or casts after this slave.) That could make communions even more powerful.

If not simply showing the boost to magic levels would be confusing. It would make sense for the master, but a slave icon would be better for the slaves.

I would assume slaves don't share fatigue from spells cast by other slaves?

That's exactly what I mean with the communion icons thing. I don't suppose the slaves have any boost to their magic levels for casting without the communion, that wouldn't make sense.

Many things about communion don't make any sense to me.
I'll try to test that tonight.
