Some interesting notes from Kristoffer in the other thread:

Quote:

Sidhe are quite similar to the Vanir, an ancient magical race superior to men skilled in the use of glamour and illusions. It could be that they share the same ancestry.

Tir na n'Og do indeed split into Man and Eriu. Eriu being somewhat similar to the Last of Tuatha from dom2 with humans (milesians) ruled by reemerging Sidhe Lords.

Fomoria will emerge eventually. They too have Fir Bolg inhabitants, but will have some other more sinister allies as well.

So apparently Tir na n'Og are early era (Man with Tuatha?). In mid era they split to Man and Eriu (basically Dom2 "last of the Tuatha" theme with Sidhe returning to the game?).

And the Fomoria are still to come as another early era nation.

This is great news. I guess this means I can scrap my Domnann mod I had planned for a Firbolg race

I am very excited to see the Tuatha making their return, and to see your take on the Fomorians. Very cool!

Hm. So 'Summon Firbolg' will probably become a national spell... now what should I use for snipers?

> Kristoffer, both of those descriptions are absolutely crawling with spelling errors. I have fixed them in the quote box below.

Yep. Haven't run them through any kind of spell check yet. Thought I could send them to you , but I will wait until all are finished. I might do some heroes today. Cu Chulainn fits ok in Eriu, but should probably be removed from Tir na n'Og. They need some other guy instead. Otherwise the descriptions are finished.

For The Tuatha, A Dagda type pretender would be absolutely incredible.

For Eriu, if it is going to be based on Red Branch lore, you will have no shortage of national heroes for that nation

Cuchulainn
Cathbad the Druid <-----Please Please!
Emer
Etaine
Deirdre <-- very good choice for a heroine unit #awe etc.
