Yeah my first thought was the headache of dropping one of the big rocks into someones province. Monolith, Sphinx, Statue, Big Head. But no feet so those wouldnt work either.

Modding would be possible in something like the Big Scenario project where its going to use all the game options together, but Id still like to see something for the SemiRand in just map commands.

speaking of surprises, I found that if you assign one of the pretender dragons as a unit - say, a bodyguard - it will appear in the humanoid form but transform into dragon form if it takes enough damage. Helps to encourage players to underestimate bodyguard defenses...

I wonder what is the turn limit that someone can be lost in time and space. In one game my tartarian got lost and he didn't appear in about 25! turns [game ended so I have no idea how long it would take].

Aezeal - "maybe mod the item so it's not boots anymore.. then equip the earth king with hydra armor and ring of regen with it and give it a shadowbrand"

I have tried to mod items from one type into another using the #weapon or #armor newitem commands, and generally only failed in copying the special attributes. So far, my only success has been creating a newitem that #weapon copied the horror claw weapon as a miscellaneous item, which since it's a bonus attack, grants the user an extra attack like the stone bird. Have you had luck doing the things you describe? Because I'd love to craft a "ring of invisibility" or something like that...

Gandalf: why don't you go ahead and program your SC using the boots for SemiRand - I'm crazy busy right now. Thanks for the honor. I'll test the boots on an indy commander in my test games for Antilarium, and see if the commander keeps landing in the same province (sad). If he doesn't return random, I'll post and let everyone know.
