he's talking about the doom horrors which will kill almost anything that they fight with in about two turns

yeah horror mark is a killer, unless you're playing R'lyeh and it's on your void summoned vastness, happened to me on single player and i had a party, Mr vastness kept on enslaving attacking horrors.

Ouch, you are now cursed for life

If you dont sacrifice that unit, YOU could get coursed too !!! :P

Nethgul does horror-mark. Hey, if you're imitating the Mi-Go and carrying a brain in a jar...

Hmmm, would you say then it's not worth it? Nethgul is a powerful item though...

Well, you do have to be careful. It's not necessarily wise to have your pretenders or other commanders you really want to want to preserve get horror-marked, for instance, since horror marks stick around even after Call God (or immortality or Ritual of Rebirth, for others).

And yes, the top tier is pretty nasty...

Ok, then what do I do with horror-marked SCs? They are too valuable to suicide. For instance I have a Niefel Jarl with "Unequaled Obesity," and awesome equipment--including the Gorgon shield. Shouldn't he be able to handle most things coming his way?

*sacrifices a few slaves to appease the hunger of the Maker of Ruins*

you know, one of those ate my Moloch pretender while playing Abyssia. I committed the mistake of trying to cast Eternal Pyre while under the effects of (my own) astral corruption...

If I was to add one thing it would be this: Doom horrors live up to their name.

The gorgon shield can help him if it gets through the MR 20 of the doom horrors, but just load up the Dom3 DB and take a look at the following guys:

Hunter of Heroes
Maker of Ruins
Eater of Gods (no kidding, especially the two latter forms with true ethereal)
Eater of Dreams
Abomination of Desolation

The Maker of Ruins and the Abomination of Desolation are pretty damned nasty and the other guys aren't exactly what you want to invite for a picnic either. Normal horrors are cute little fluffy-bunnies compared to these fellows.
