There are lots of different Wild Hunts, primarily in german/celtic traditions (there are examples from other myths as well). Herne, Arawn (IIRC), Odin/Wotan, but there are others. The one in dominions is quite celtic, but I'm not sure I wish to limit it since it is a cool spell.

Would Tir na n'Og use heroes from the battles of Moy Tura/Mag Tured? The Dagda and Morrigan for instance? Though they could be alternate pretender builds? Or Sreng, the Fir Bolg champion?

Why not tweak it so that it's slightly different depending on the nation that casts it?

That would be confusing. Is there any case of that being done in the game now?

Hmmmmm... but you could make it so that certain pretenders have extra bonuses with the spell. Thats been done. And it would help make some of the thematic pretenders have a reason to use them.

Not too far into the future. We will make some early age fixes as well.

Like toning down Helhirdlings a little so I can play Helheim without getting mocked? : )
