The only ones that I can see on that map that should be, but aren't, neighbors, are 44 and 55.

Actually, it would likely be applied to three units. The misbred regulars of EA, the Demonbred of EA, and the Demonbred of MA. Besides, once created, who knows where it will show up next. The point is to eliminate the common confusion with misbred, which to me is worth it.

Those are commanders only, though, so it doesn't matter. While the limitation should maybe be made clearer in the unit description, I think that there are a lot more hidden abilities/flags carried by units that deserved an icon instead of the half-demon one. And then everyone and his dog wants a new half-something icon, too. As I said, I don't reject the idea in general, though.

I want a Mostly Harmless icon.

And a Half Yazata icon.

And an icon that says "Will Mind Burn For Pizza".

Demonbreds aren't *always* commanders, if somebody Enslaves them.

It would actually be kind of cool to have a reverse Gift Of Reason so you could attach Pythium communicants to a master and teleport around as a group via Gateway/Astral Travel.

In that case they can be led by normal commanders, too, though.

Sadly, non-commanders don't trigger their #onebattlespell. Meaning they would have to be commanders to be of any use as communion slaves.

Are you sure communicants work through #onebattlespell? I have this vague memory of having tested this (by modding communicants as recruitable units, not commanders) and it worked.

I have enslaved communicants specifically to test this - and it did not work.

No, they don't. It is hard-coded into the game.
