Byzantine Pythium for LE project

LA combines priests and magic pretty often, but they rarely are good in both. Something like the Astral equivalent of Anathemant Dragons could be very interesting, however. I don't know about the other paths, but both Death and Blood are probably totally out. If Astral is based around the clergy, the mages won't be as powerful in it. That leaves Nature, and the elements. Three or four out of those, with two (in addition to Astral) with starting level 2, 3 with proper random, seems to be the norm... But it'll be easier to think of that once you get the game. It'll be easier to finish this mod if you do some of the work (writing stats for the units) now that you have lots of spare time.

Hmm, Nature magic, interesting, I'll have to think about it. After reading around a bit about Orthodox christianity I am forming an image what the Priests could be like. So that's progress.

But yes, I will write the unit stats ready. Now I only need to think up of mages and holy units.

I say you should make the Ancient Hebrew mod before the Byzantine Pyhtium mod

I think IW is working on something like that themselves.

But if not, I'll make both.

Actually, I think IW has plans for BOTH.

Byzantine Pythium too? Seriously? =/

Well, late era Pythum. I'm not sure if it's exactly what you have in mind. I suggest you go on with this project, it's very unlikely it will turn out to be the same thing that IW will make.
