Mod: Conceptual Balance 1.21

[Agrajag]

Aren't you confusing Carrion Woods with Haunted Forest?

[Endoperez]

Carrion Woods creates the nation-spesific animal-manikin. It turns Pangaea into Ermor-lite, with dominion transforming population into freespawn.

[Sir_Dr_D]

In my 'question Of balance' game I created a pretender build in order to cast Carrion Woods. Doing so is pricy. Not only do you need a Prentender that has both nature and death, you need a high dominion, and a life scale in order to make the spell effective. In order to make this build, I had to give up blessed centaurs. But we will see if the spell is overpowered at level 0 or not. But at level 0 it does make Pangaea a lot more interesting to play.

[Kuritza]

Oh yes, no doubt it does. Ghost raiders at level 0 would also make Helheim and CTis a lot more interesting to play.
P.S.
My own pretender has death and nature, and very good scales. I fail to see the 'sacrifice'.

[Endoperez]

Dominions II had a theme in which Pangaea started the game with Carrion Woods as a dominion effect. They had Nature/Death mages and level 0 national spells for summoning the Carrion lords and ladies and critters that now have to be researched. I don't remember how good it was considered, but I doubt level 0 Carrion Woods is as big of a problem as you think. It kills off population, reducing your income and your capability to recruit normal troops or mages.

[Humakty]

Playing Mid Marignon, I had the AI cast wild hunt against me, and if I recall correctly, it only works in forests, so it's not that hard to avoid having your mage priests killed (quite annoying though).

[Zeldor]

Isn't it a bug with lvl0 Carron Woods? I think they should be lvl 7 or 8.
