Send Tupilak

[Bananadine]

I still don't know what y'all are on about. I just loaded a test game I made (for unrelated reasons) a while ago, and sent eight tupilut at miscellaneous enemy commanders. Six of them met generic human or triton commanders and won their fights pretty easily. One met a dryad, and killed her with some difficulty. One met a centaur, which promptly destroyed it.

These results match what I've seen in my present multiplayer game. Clearly, this is a spell that pretty reliably destroys unguarded commanders of low quality, and that can sometimes destroy high-level mages (ones who don't happen to choose good spells to defend themselves). It's pretty cheap, and its skill requirements are easily met by the only nation that can cast it. Since it can't reliably destroy high-quality commanders or well-guarded commanders, it's not a very good spell, as Earth Attack is. But unguarded low-quality commanders are often used to lead troops, or to support other mages, and so assassinating them is sometimes useful. What's the problem?

I'll tell you the real problem: Every tupilak I've seen so far has been in the shape of a bear. Even underwater, where the monster gets an underwater stats penalty! That's crazy! It's crazy enough that I have already reported it as a bug.
