Default Re: Shattered Soul for tartarians. Do tell !

It'd be better to actually limit the items to just units. As an example, the item affects all units controlled by the commander it is equipped to. Problems with this approach:

* new, unprecedented spell effect is not likely to be added (if it was, it MIGHT go into #spec field, which would make it easy to add the effect to existing spells)
* undead are numerous, and it's much, much easier to get undead leadership in the hundreds than it's to increase normal leadership. Undead already have good immunities, and making few hundred soulless (already immune to cold, poison and fatigue) immune or resistant to fire and/or lightning as well would be very annoying. Boosting their magres would also suddenly be much easier for everyone.


It would make national commanders with high ldrship values better, because one item on them would affect double or triple the number of units indy commanders could protect.

EDIT: Heh, you made a good post there. I didn't have any ideas when I posted the above message. I got one. I posted it. I can only do as much as I can, and no more.
