Pythium speculation

[Endoperez]

As easy as Pythium? None. However, all Arcoscephalian mages have Astral, R'lyeh has Star Children (the assasins), anyone who has found independent Shamans has access to 110 gp communion slaves, arguably Marignon (F2S1 Witch Hunters, but with S2 being the highest they are vulnerable to Magic Duel). Abysia has 150gp Warlock Apprentices, but you usually don't want to recruit one over Warlocks, both being limited to the same province.

I'm not sure if Tien Chi Masters of the Way have S1?1 H2 or W1?1 H2, but if they have Astral, that's one.
Iron Woods Jotunheim has Vaetti Hags. They have sorcery random, so one of S, D, N or B. The S ones are good slaves, B ones can hunt for virgins, N ones summon Vinemen, D ones can Reanimate and lead those undead giants. They are very cheap, so even with only 1/4 being communion slave, you probably have enough for communion.

Anyone wondering what might happen with Ermor as well? Given the new "New Faith" Ermor, where does Ashen Empire and Soul Gate fit in? I know pop-killing themes are unpopular, but they are so different in style that it would be a shame if they were cut. Plus, I'd like to see more use of Unholy mages, so maybe their themes "leak" into other nations....

Well I guess that New Faith is early age, Broken Empire (default theme) second (middle or whatever), and either Soul Gate or Ashen Empire last era. I guess that either Soul Gate or Ashen Empire bought it.
That is what I think checking the descriptions of Ermor and its units about their history.

Morkilus, you can't get any Unholy priests in Dom3. All the priests of your nation are Holy, and all the other ones are unholy. It's in the eye of the beholder.

Soul gate could be during the fall, while Ashen Empire is long after.

Has anyone actually said the nations/themes system will disapear? I mean when you consider how little diffrence some themes make...

According to description ingame, all three ermor themes should be late era.

All makt åt Folket!

History is slightly reworked. Early age ermor is entirely new. Late Ermor is ashen with soul gate possibilities.
