I just glanced through the list of new spells and I don't see anything called Assimilation. Do you maybe mean Imprint Souls, by any chance? That's a new high-level Astral spell that raises an army of mind-controlled converts within an enemy province.

Imprint soul is the new name for assimilation, assimilation sounded so trekkish.

Hmmmm OK, what does Shadow Bolt do?
Any nifty bloodsummons?

Ahh, the blood summons. They must be one of my new Favorites. Most of the high level demons and devils are unique commanders now that all have their own individual strengths. So if all 7 ice devils have been summoned there will be no one available until one of them is killed.

The demon lords are especially fun as they are most varied and have great special powers that can be both good and bad for your empire. It can't be all good to summon demon lords after all.

One of the Demon Lords is Belphegor the Lord of Hell. He spreads gold around him and fathers sell their children and their souls to the demon. They are then used as soldiers and blood slaves in Belphegor's growing army. This practice is quite bad for your pretender's dominion however.

I wont they thats the features are fun or cool, thats too horrible to envision

... would Belphegor accept the souls of chickens and pigs instead?

some related questions :

What are "Heartcompanions" and "Demon Jesters"?
I saw their names mentioned on dom2progress page...
I think Heartcompanions summoned creatures because their cost was altered from 10 to 5(i think it was so...)...
Demon Jesters are at least something for Diabolic Faith theme...

Also, is Pazuzu a Demon Lord now?
And what's the "Belphegor's growing army"? Do you get...*grasp* units for free too? Can you control the army?

Dude, i'm so playing Mictlan with Diabolic Faith(if possible) and with a Moloch pretender when i get this game! I have alredy some intresting backstory for this nation/theme/pretender combo... I could post it...
