My New Creature
i've been thinking about heroes and ive noticed that more often than not that when i play as chaos or death on a large map, i usually take over a nature/preserve town. they always have a creature portal containing some nice creatures in huge stacks BUT if i recruit these then ofcourse my morale takes a beating. so ive decided to make a creature that can adapt to it new battlemates.
depending on the town, the creature changes.eg,(H4 style), the creature of the nature town will be elemental or the asylum creature will have a fire attack and fire resistance, and so on. this creature has a special building not interfering with the other buildings(eg, building the other structure instead of the new creature one so the new creature is unavailable,H4 stlye)
along with an ability corresponding to the town the creature has the town ward, eg, order ward for order creature,ect.
this creature also has a number of spells, 0 in the might town 1-3 in other towns. eg, order creature has the ability to dispel beserk, blind or hipnotize, life creature can cast mass death or mass chaos ward, ect.
the main factor affecing me to post this idea is that the creatures morale is not affected by the army its in. it shares the same morale as the other creatures in the party. the only exception is if the creature is in an all native army and it gains a +1 to its morale
now this creature isnt weak so its pushed aside but isnt too strong as to outshine classics but is a creature you could well use, but survive without.
now, im going with svarog's "a new revolutianry alignment of towns" to name the creatures
legend:town name-creature name>abilities
good:
rampart-chameleon of the forest>rampart ward,giant strength, mirth, luck
tower-chameleon of order>tower ward,cold resistance,dispel beserk and blind
castle-chameleon of life>life ward,ranged,mass necro ward or mass inferno ward or mass shadow ward or mass dungeon ward
desert-chameleon of the sun> desrt ward fire resistance, snake strike, first strike
neutral:
stronghold-chameleon of battle> stronghold ward two attacks, first strike,bloodlust
fortress-chameleon of defence>fortress ward ranged, instubstantial, spell, defender
aquatic-chameleon of water/chameleon of the sea> water ward cold resistance, cold attack, freezing attack
conflux-chameleon of the elements>elemental resitance elemental, spells, teleport, ice bolt, fire bolt, flying(the spell)
evil:
necropolis-chameleon of death>death ward, undead, aging,spells, poison, sorrow, unholy song
dungeon-chameleon of the underground>dungeon ward, ranged,ranged first strike
shadow-chameleon of the dark/darkness>shadow ward, giant slayer, mirth, luck, blind attack, spell, speed.
inferno-chameleon of fire> inferno ward, fire resistance, fire attack, breath attack, spell, fireball
so summing up:
-each chameleon has a native ward
-each chameleon has abilities corresponding to the town
-each chameleon has its own special building, outside of the original dwelling system(if in H4 style)
-each chameleon is a creature you'd like in your party but could survive without
-each chameleon has the same morale as the other creatures in the party, no matter what town they originate from
-each chameleon has a +1 morale bonus when in a party with 100% native creatures
-each chameleon can cast from 0-4 spells
any flaws, suggestions or comments would be glady accepted

could work well...A nice idea...
Alltough I personally prefer each town having some building options that depend on who holds the town.(if evil holds castle, he cannot build pallies and angels, but something else..weaker)

thx for the comment
and for the evil thing maybe they weaken them so if evil holds a good town, angels do 25% less damage or something like that, eh

Too much chameleons. Think of better types (1 for each type) and it might be good.
