Pretenders & Miasma diseases

[Twan]

Some questions about the miasma effect on pretenders...

How are calculated the chances to become diseased in a miasma dominion ?
Are some pretenders immune to the miasma effect or in general to diseases even if they are not cold blooded nor undead ? (according to the text all other creatures seem subject to the miasma diseases, but I find strange that specialized pretenders like the plague lord, very thematic pretenders for Ct'is -father/mother of serpents-, or creatures with swamp survival and/or PR like a green dragon or a wyrm may be affected).
Also according to the description, lifeless creatures have immunity to "drain life, sleep and polymorph" but... nothing about diseases. I think they are immune anyway, but is it confirmed ?

Undead are not affected by disease. I'm not sure about lifeless. Inanimate probably are.

IIRC, both cold-bloodedness and swamp survival protect from the miasma disease.

[PvK]

Ya, undead and other disease-immune units can show the disease affliction, but it doesn't do anything to them.

In Dominions 2 I had more han a few crushers who went on for years with diseases without suffering any damage from it. So I assume that your lifeless beings are still immune in Dominions 3.

I have great hopes for my Astral 9, Air 3, Dominion 10 Imprisoned Oracle. Once he breaks out and casts the Wrath of God we'll have some Miasmarific fun.

What about demon units? I've heard they are also immune to effects of desease and do not get new afflictions from desease. Can somebody confirm or deny it?
