EA Pangaea recruit screen. Few new units but they're mainly just unarmoured versions of old stuff. As said above, Panii are E1N4B1, always have either E2 or B2, and have a chance of increasing any one of their paths further.

Barbarian Kings... You really make good choices! 3 new caster-types for Barbarian Kings, with strange combinations of Death and other paths, and all of them old. I won't show them, of course.

But any way, here you have an Ancestor Vessel. Howling Bow is a Composite Bow with a Lesser Fear effect.

Looks very cool. I wonder what sort of a bless would be best for them. Perhaps fire if it aplies to missile weapons too...

Or Water.

Fire is melee only. Water would give them more ranged attacks as well, so that could work. Fire or blood would work for increased attack and/or strength, which would affect all their attacks. Death would make them cause more afflictions, which would give them a use as slightly anti-SC, or at least anti-thug, force.

More afflictons? so That's the mysterious "Death Weapon" effect. What does lvl 9 death bless do?

Water/Death could work.

Death 9: some AN damage. I don't know the details, either; I'm not the manual guy. I don't remember what the icon and its description tell of the Death 9 effect, either.

Wait, so Death bless has been changed and it causes afflictions instead of fear?

Yes. Morale system was redone, and Death bless was changed.

Trust me, shields are extremely important, lightly armoured troops without them can get decimated by archers.

Also, as I said, even a Buckler makes a huge difference. Just try Bandar Log or Patala, and try Bandar Warriors against Bandar Archers, or the Vanara Chakram Throwers against mace-and-buckler wielding Vanara. I think the latter are Vanara Warriors, but I'm not sure.

Awesome. Light armoured troops with shields will have a chance to survive against archers now.

Note also how Nature bless has changed ! In fact the effects have been swapped : now you get Regen at N4 and berserk at N9. Rather weird balance-wise IMHO (N4 becomes a no-brainer and N9 useless...)
