DOH

That mother could have sneaked away before the battle easily, but I thought here useless and didn't care.
Man, had I used her as a scout...

I didn't care about her and let her attend the next major battle. She rushed the enemy and was the only of my 22 commanders to die. But the Amulet was picked up by my rainbow pretender, with the ability to cast Fog Warriors, Battle Fortune and such nice things. It will have been her last battle. She retired and waits for becoming a skinshifter.

NOOOO, i loved that battle. Hope you get rid of it.

The becoming a skinshifter mechanic is odd. Not all units can transform not sure what the requirements are.

I didnt know that some units couldnt transform. I thought you just had an MR check each month, and if you fail, you become a skinshifter. I dont know what the check is, but if pretenders CAN transform, their higher MR should keep it from happening for a while.

Dunno if it was the pretender ability, but monoliths cannot transform

Yes, that's true. But isnt that because they are lifeless? Lifeless and undead can't cast transformation, so maybe the amulet has the same critera as the transformation spell?

In a game against Eriu I swear that the AI delibrately mass-produced Lycantropos Amulets and fed them to my commanders. Virtually everybody on the frontlines picked up one.
