Two notes, since I've been playing with these in SP lately.

The big drawback to Einheres that you don't mention is that they are strategic move 1. This makes them a pain to combine with the faster skinshifters.

You mentioned communions of Volva, but it's not quite so obvious that any Galdermen with blood can join, or better yet lead a communion. This may be an easier, cheaper way to get access to the higher levels of Air battle magic. Also lets you use rejuvenation to wipe away fatigue.

Native Death 3 + Skull Staff + Skullface == Death 5.

Very nice guide!

On the other hand with native Death 2 possible on Galdermen, a Skullstaff can be forged, allowing the summoning of Mound Fiends who have native D3, and with them Liches giving you D6 with Skull staff and skullface.

D3 pretender speeds up the process, but isn't necessary. The hard part, if you're going for Tartarians, isn't the death, but the Nature - for Gift of Reason and Chalice/Gift of Health. That'll need to be on the pretender or lucky indy finds.

Your welcome.

I would say yes, but that won't make it true. The last section was supposed to be dedicated to specific strategies, such as how to set up a blood economy or specific Pretender builds. So, whats there is complete, I just wanted to add some addendums. There are one or two fixes I would like to do, though, such as discussing how to deal with archer armies. However, I find myself quite busy lately, and its hard to find the motivation to mess with it.

As long as I recieve proper credit as writer and it isn't changed or placed on an open source "wiki" (so as to make changes inevitiable), feel free to copy and place elsewhere.
