Default Re: New Mod: Nova Deus II (taking requests)

I'm glad many of you are enjoying this mod!

Sandman, those pretenders can do those things if you choose to buff their magic skills. To be truthful to the lore behind the new pretenders in question I chose to represent them with power already abundant enough to perform such feats. To try and balance things, they are more expensive in points costs and all are vulnerable to banishment as demons. Although I will probably increase their points costs in the next update (and have already done so to the Lord of Destruction). In general, I think they appropriately represent the Chaos gods from the Warhammer mythos and would be somehow lesser if I brought them into line with the standard Dominions "template" for pretenders (i.e. no magic paths greater than 3 to start).

Default Re: New Mod: Nova Deus II (taking requests)

I'm working on weird nations for a mod:
N'kai (intelligent oozes, slimes, nameless horrors in the dark, etc),
Adomo (earth gnomes and earth elementals, basically)
C'thon (Middle Era Aboleth royalty, death-cult, Mamluk-style slaves)
Mu (Late Era mutant Aboleths and dolphin-riders),
Yith (Late Era extraterrestrial spirits possessing an insectoid race),
Fthaggua (fire vampires, basically a race of etherial, immortal, life-drainers),
Lemuria (underwater nature-magic race based on Ammonites, kinda-sorta like Pangaea only underwater),
Y'qaa (Elder Things ala At the Mountains of Madness-extensive users of Crossbreeding-type magics, created Shuggoths, kind of resemble flying 5 sided barrels, have bizarre advanced technology)

It's going to be a while before I can get the artwork up and running for these mods because my scanner is on the other side of the U.S., but if you're still taking requests I thought I'd mention what I'm working on and that I could use some original Pretenders. It might be fun for you to get really wild and come up with some truly bizarre godlings. I'll gladly answer any questions and fill you in as much as possible on any details you may be interested (and anyone else is welcome to work on this project too, I only have so much creative energy, and it's getting spread pretty thin). I just ask that any Pretender submissions for these nations be in earnest-I don't want blatant jokes (subtle ones are fine as long as they look cool). I want to maintain as high a level of quality as possible. Thanks!
