So basically you can overwrite the Communicant with your unit name, stats, sprites etc maintaining the same unit number. The downside is that the unit will not count as a communion slave in a communion, but the cool thing is, the unit will receive any self casted buff the communion masters cast just like a communion slave in a reverse communion.

It makes for a really cool unique unit. I overwrote the communicant with a sliver unit that gains abilities from specialized slivers that autocast communion master at the start of battle. It turned out pretty cool .

That's actually EXACTLY what I wanted. Having that many slaves would make the master too powerful, but what I wanted was a method to buff an army of weak little things. Fantastic!
