Re: Did you know that? (Dominions trivia)
Wouldn't you be immune to mind hunts as well?

Mindless death-spell-casting corpses. Now there's a movie.

Doing this to a pile of Priests is great way to create Reanimating Priests.

So, while I think this idea is just great - the use of it to create Reanimating Priests seems a little fishy to me. Can any undead priest reanimate? Cause it would just be totally bizarre to have a nation like Arco with a widespread capability to get undead freespawn.
What do you all think? |

Re: Did you know that? (Dominions trivia)
Any undead or demon priest can reanimate.

Did you know that....
Several nations get their own special Soulless and Londead. While most people know about Lanka's undead bandar and markata or Caelum's winged undead, few people know that Atlantis gets undead that have coral armor and weapons.

AFAIK, any non-humanoid nation has its own type undead similar to the majority of population (meaning R'lyeh gets atlantians, for example). |

Thematically I'm fine with it. Of course this would represent a major corruption of society, but if a nation like Ermor could be tempted by the dark powers of death magic, why should Arco (or any other nation) be immune?

Storm Demons are one of the few creature who aren't affected by Storms. Toss in a Gift of Reason and give them a Bow of War and you have Storm-immune archery (and as Commanders, they can be set to Fire Rear). The Precision of 14 doesn't hurt either.

Are they actually storm immune? I know they can fly in a storm and I can easily see them not get the precision penalty, but doesn't Storm also stop 50% of missiles? Are they really immune to that?
Not to mention GoR just to get an archer seems a bit of a waste... |
