Yeah, that's what I meant. Great! I love having tons of heroes; I'll always set it to maximum.

Heroic Tentacles: Upon slaying a foul kraken, the commander's open wounds are exposed to dying gouts of mollusk blood. Soon after, he sprouts tentacles from his body. Initially 3 tentacles of length 2 and 8 damage (does not add wielder's strength), the tentacles increase in number, length, and damage with heroic ability. These tentacles are autonomous, and not controlled by the commander - so each can strike any adjacent square, regardless of what the commander is doing, even if he is rendered unconscious.

Legendary Compassion: For sparing the lives of wounded enemies left strewn on the battleground - bandaging them that they might return safely home, to fight no more - this hero's name has spread in whispers across the land, as being the general who could conquer without cruelty. Any province captured by an army including this hero has initial unrest decreased by 50%, an amount that increases with heroic ability.

Infernal Power: The hero will gain +4 str, also there will be a 25% chance that the hero will kill any holy troop at first hit.

Some amusing ideas here. Most seem more like ideas for specific super-creatures rather than heroic abilities of normal units, and many of the proposed values seem a lot higher than comparabele Doms I values.

How about a Charisma and/or Orator ability that increases leadership slightly, and reduces unrest in a province slightly without patrolling.
