Unique conjuration spell for pythium/marignon.

Bog beast was a joke, get them in a mid level conj summon with nature/water.

You can wish for units as well, though they require a gift of reason to be a commander.

gift of reason?!

Man this game is complicated.
What's Gift of Reason? =(

Most spells, esp. most summons, are described in your manual.

The 'Slave to Unreason' is quite an interesting character.

Good catch, I totally forgot about doom horrors since they are so impractical to employ in MP. My personal favorite is the maker of ruins.

Yes, I could tell you're new with the game when you mentioned Eater of the Dead being powerful. Based on the cost of gems and what it does in battle... it's one of the worst deals in the game. It's a strong unit yet way way over priced and never worth considering in a multiplayer game.

Of course he is! He grows like a sponge! Cover the world in sponges and you will rule th galaxy

Edit: DOn't forget to feed him

Even after being fully stuffed with corpses he has multiple weaknesses for costing 50 astral ! First only one can exist on the map so any opponent wanting to destroy all your hard work just has to summon one of them. Second this creature will go beserk and leave you... possibly return to attack you. For a few more astral gems I can summon a army of ether warriors and an ether lord commander which could slice and dice three eater of the deads in battle.
It's a strong unit, but if you check the multiplayer games... it's never casted.
