Anyone else excited about the next patch?

Before beginners? JapaN00b?

I'd definetly make a small mod for my beloved Agartha if I can forge a darkness autocasting item. I might have to keep it singleplayer... or maybe I could make those cave provinces dark again.

If it had to be units, I could summon an immobile commander, I suppose. I remember hearing about the 'Insectoid' mod and how it had interesting buildings. Even if its simply setting a unit to cast only one available spell I could have a Death 8 unit cast darkness and nothing else...

Or, imagine a unit that casts fire flies - national turret?

I think fire flies could be done as a weapon. Just give it a high rate of fire.

Things I'm particularly looking forward to:
* Spells with side-effects. My Voudoun-themed LA Machaka needs to have negative side-effects to their mass-buffs.
* I assume that I can also get the computer to downward adjust ages with a side-effect; or maybe this will not be needed.
* Blood and fire! I can't even decide what all side-effects to give people.

Sounds like a Watcher.

But after you said "turret", I got visions of trampling tanks rolling across the battlefield...

I made such a turret in my Commonwealth mod. It fires lightning.
