You can redesign dendroids effect and add impaling, yes. Then rename spell, add custom text in battle log + custom sound. Would be nice to see a pike coming out from their head while being blocked.

Can i suggest something?
Samca is one of the creatures that inspired dracula, I think it should be on romanian town(if possible)

Doomhammer said: Wow LizardWarrior this is so cool
I really like the concept and the time and effort that you are putting in to this is inspiring. Keep going with it, i think its going to be really cool when its finished
Thanks
@Sal: Can you make the spell animation to last until the end of the effect? I didn't know this was possible.
@Marisa: Well, there are a few problems with the Samca: Mythological ones (that wouldn't be a big issue), Samca only appears to small children under the age of 5 and to some women during birth giving. Also she's a old naked hag Of course these issues could be easily fixed, but the line-up is more or less established , I will update the current sprites , but I don't know if I will replace a tier. Maybe they could show up as neutrals, but I can't promise anything

Now, I'm redoing the moroi and strigoi. As abilities they will get magic resistance (20-40%) and misfortune or sorrow on hit (I wanted to give them slow, but that would be pretty overpowered). In Romanian mythology, there are 2 types of strigoi: living and dead, I have chosen to go with the dead one since they are more interesting and more common in the folklore. There are more ways of becoming a strigoi: Dying unbaptized, suffering a violent death, being an evil person during life or if an animal has walked over your corpse. Strigoi are the base for the vampire myths, they are afraid of garlic, onions and holy incense, also in order to kill a strigoi you got to nail a wooden stake in his heart, then have his living relatives drink the corpses' ash. Below is the standing animation ( Taste the epilepsy )

imo, your animation would look better if you made the change from normal to light gradual, instead of flashing. but how you would implement this... i don't know of a way to gradually "invert" a frame's pixels.
maybe a gradual "glow" effect, or lighting?

@Hero_of_Light: I already added the unupgraded werewolf to the game, the upgraded one isn't ready.
@Fred: I took the gradual glowing into consideration, but I decided to go for the flash for the simple fact that it's sudden. If it won't work out as I intended ( it will be too fast and annoying), I may convert it into the 'mouse over' animation.

Would be cool of you had 1 creature from the Hungarian mythology, considering the history of the two countries.

That could be an interesting idea as I already have John Hunyadi (in Romanian Ioan de Hunedoara, Hungarian: Hunyadi János,), who was the son of a Romanian Noble and an important political figure in Hungary. But there are some problems: 1st- the social tension between our countries which would generate comments "What is this creature doing in a Romanian Town, this is from Hungarian mythology!" 2nd- I don't know a lot about Hungarian folkloric creatures and what would fit.

The new moroi is in the game, I decided to make them fliers, so now they transform into smoke when moving. I'm planning to do the Vârcolac next (werewolf upg)
Edit: I have decided to swap Moroi and Haiduci tiers, so here is the new lvl 2 (old lvl 3) dwelling

I believe the town screen needs more authentic Romanian monuments, so now I'm trying to use the Bran Castle ( Vlad the Impaler's a.k.a Dracula's Castle) as the vampire dwelling. It still needs a few fixes, a better contrast and I have to fix the lighting, should I also add lights or bats flying around, maybe even impaled people ?

The new vampire dwelling is the Bran Castle, the fortress of Vlad the Impaler a.k.a Dracula. Here's it on the adventure map, now I only need to make some impaled people as decorations

Should I keep the Dacian Altar (Werewolf dwelling, the stone circle) or incorporate the lvl 5 dwelling into a forest just under the castle?
