Of course. The file was still loitering in my dom2 folder. Haven't looked at it for quite some time now so it might need a major overhaul.

Very nice work Zepath.

A couple of possible improvements:

1) It�s possible in dom 3 to mod the dragon form magic of the new dragons to have 2 less levels than the human form. Simply add "#magicboost 53 -2" on the dragon form.

2) It would be really thematic for the divine messenger to have a higher mapmovement, right now he seems to be a pretty weak pretender compared to the virtue for example.

3) The risen emperor is vastly overpriced. A lich queen is immortal has better stats, is cheaper and has a higher dominion, so the one astral doesn�t matter. In addition it would be really fitting for him to be a very powerful undead leader.

I really like all the new graphics with the exception of the crone, which looks pretty silly with the pointy hat

Turin, aha! I knew not everyone was into the pointy hats. Thank you for the suggestions, btw. I had not thought about the magic drain on the new dragons and will impliment that in addition to your other thoughts.

Zepath, I'm going to make a version of the Crone in a Baba-Yaga style. No reason not to have many hags out there, and the ones who don't like pointy hats might enjoy chicken feet. I won't claim that the artwork will be as good as yours or that my style is similar, however, but you're welcome to add the finished product to your mod if you like it. I'll basically be making an entirely different Pretender from the Crone that's in the vanilla game, stats-wise as well as visually, and I'll probably even rename her, so it shouldn't replace anything you're working on.

HoneyBadger, cool beans. Lemme know when you've got it finished. I'm not really familiar with Baba-Yaga so I shall leave it entirely up to you. I'd be happy to add it into Nova Deus II if you'd allow that.

That's great, Zepath, thanks. When I can I'll research more in-depth the Baba Yaga myth and get back to you about it.

HoneyBadger, yea fill me in on this strange mythos of the chicken-legged hut. It reminds me of Invader Zim...

Also, a bump and FYI, Nova Deus II has been updated to version 1.2 with some new graphics and new pretenders!
