Setting up an Ettin?

[Shovah32]

If you want to equip an ettin(I prefer Nataraja's for the extra hand though) to take down tough enemies then a simple:
3xDusk Dagger
2xHorned Helmet
Jade Armour
Flying Boots
Ring of the warrior
Stone Bird

Should suffice. Not quite as many attacks as some other builds but the 6 high strength dusk dagger attacks per round is deadly.

So, how do you get Ettins? I've only seen them as mercenaries. And Natarajas? Isn't that a pretender? I mean sure, if you wish... I'm not missing another way of getting them, am I?

Improved cross breeding has a chance I believe

[Hadrian_II]

You can get Ettins by cross breeding (you dont need the improved variant), and it is possible to wish for whatever unit you want.

[Szumo]

I got mine from improved crossbreeding.

[Hadrian_II]

I got one from the normal crossbreeding, and i think the only change between the crossbreedings is the better slave/unit ratio.

Easiest nation to do it with is pangera (sp?)

And the Lord Of The Wild can take some pretty awesome builds himself.
