Mod: Gaea, Cradle of Forests (3.08 compatible)

Lemurs...Nature's Assassin! lol Couldn't resist the Robot Chicken reference.

I know, the problem with woodland animals is their too damn cute. Like I've said, I know there are summons for animals, but to make them domspawn units would be a bit reduntant.

Hmmm...interesting conundrum this. I shall devote my life(or just a couple hours) to thinking of woodland units for Foodstamp. But now I sleep, it's getting late.

I really should work on my barb mod too. I like the werebear thing.

I'm trying to gain permission to release a sort of alien insectoid themed nation mod, as soon as I hear back from Uh-Nu-Buh. It's his mod though-I just did the artwork, and hopefully he'll either release it himself, or let me release it, in which case I'd like to polish it a bit, but it shouldn't take too long to release-since most of the work is done, unlike the majority of the mods I've created.

In the meantime-and back on topic-giant versions of very common insects are pretty universal, and I don't think it would be fair to even mentally restrict them to a "type" of mod. Even undead nations-and if anything is an antithesis to nature, it's undead-could thematically have insect recruits and summons-think spiders, maggots, worms, flies, all the wriggly, scary things that live in dark, damp places among the Dead. There could even be a fun mod of a skeletal nation that feeds their own flesh to giant insects in return for their services, and then build and armour their own bones into undead constructs.

Instead of larger versions on insects how about swarms of them? They could start off with multiple attacks, 1-2 health and slightly above average defence and when that form gets killed they could lose an attack, go back to 1-2 health and gain some defence. I would love to just get swarms of little insects stinging enemies to death

That's an interesting idea Shovah. The way you describe them, they could work like large elementals, the more damage they take, the smaller they become. Might be tough to do.

After sleeping on this, one word keeps popping into my head:

Jabberwocky.

Since this is suppose to be nature rising in rebellion against the other nations, and carrion Woods is taken by Pangea, perhaps all the dark, disturbing legends of the forests are waking too. And the Jabberwocky (sp?) is definitely a disturbing creature. Or it was when I was little. This would prolly have to be a summons though.

As far as domspawn units, I hesitate to suggest satyrs. But perhaps, like the forest zealots, they could have wandered deep into the forests, disillusioned by the course Pangea has taken (with they're bronze age), and turned themselves over totally to Gaea. Ofcourse, little to no armor and spears for weapons.

That's my two cents worth of ideas.

I've gotten the multihero. It's kinda amusing, but I was so excited at getting a leader that can actually lead troops that any thug-like qualities were overlooked.
