#restricted as bitmask - think about it!

That's an idea. However, take a look at the modding wishes shortlist. A much better way of doing things would be for each nation to have a pretender list just like they have a recruitment list, and using two commands like #clearpretenders and #addpretender <monster nbr> you could build a custom god list for each nation. Yes, that's a bit more work, but it keeps things clear and removes the necessity of resorting to such ridiculously large bitmasks.

Having #addpretender commands would be very useful. As it is I don't like to use the current method to add pretenders so most of my nations just have the default.
