Goodnes, those Agaratans sure seem to pack a punch, especially TO and Umbrals. Pity about the battle though.

And the iron corpses seem pretty lame.

Sepulchrals and Umbrals are cool though.

Yeah the Tomb Oracle will be a very good unit.
The Iron Corpses are not that bad at all imho. Their protection is decent.

True, but they are kinda expensive for what they do for, hmmm, 1.25 gems per corpse?

Umbrals are interesting...I wonder if LA Agartha has sneaky commanders. A task force of even 10 Umbrals could be bad new for most provinces defence, especially if led by a stealthy mage.

Sepulchrals look also very good, but I do not know how much they cost. They are propably decent with Water 9 blessing, and Fire 9 will give them a powerful offensive edge. A W9/E4 Olm could be good for Agarta throughout the ages.

Yep they are a bit expensive, however..
1. we gotta wait and see the magic gem income changes in Doms 3.
2. maybe higher luck will grant more summoned units? [example: high luck scale = 20 summoned units, instead of 17]
3. units like these can be handy in certain battles, regardless of their cost.

Does this sudden burst of posts mean the demo is done?

It means that I am back from some days away with about 100 students. It also means that I have managed to look away from Dwarf Fortress for a while

The sepulchrals cost 4 deathgems.

Dominionsfan is correct i think, the iron corpses have a niche. But eventually they will get replaced by mechanical men. But since you need enchantment 3 for skelspam anyways, so in times of need in a blitz e.g. you could use them.
But they are very niche imho, the earth could also be invested in items e.g., like dwarfen hammers
