Lesser Horror bonus
In an SP game Pan and Man have gone nutso with temples, so to raze them I've been sending out a few Lesser Horrors a turn. Even solo Lesser Horrors do a pretty good job against the mid-level PD the AI is buying, and the occasional small army that happens to be in the province. They are successful about 80% of the time.
But about once every 4 casts, I get a fully-fledged horror who absolutely ravages the opposition. Nice! I'm boosting S2B1 units to S3B2 to cast, so no way I'm accidentally casting Send Horror.
Has anyone had an extra-special doom horror pop out of a Lesser Horror or Send Horror ritual? Or are vanilla Horrors the best that will appear?

Re: Lesser Horror bonus
Was astral corruption in play? It gives Horrors a chance of being upgraded, and you should get Doom Horrors occasionally on send/call Horror if it is.

Re: Lesser Horror bonus
Yes it is. I did not know that, thanks! So that's why I've never seen it before, I don't bring AC up very often.
I'm eagerly awaiting Kurgi paying a visit to Pan's temples now  .

Re: Lesser Horror bonus
Does anyone know the exact amount of horror marks it takes, assuming that horror mark is worth one unit of horror marking, for different types of horrors to be summoned? I must have put 30+ horror marks on a pretender one game, and he never got anything more than a regular horror. I was quite disappointed.

Re: Lesser Horror bonus
Horror marking comes in "levels". Ok, most people know that.
What they don't know is that only some effects have the capacity to increase a horror mark to the next level. The spell Horror Mark seems to either not increase a mark's severity, or it has a very low chance.
The Forbidden Light seems to increase Horror Marks quite quickly, though. I've never increased a Horror Mark past the point where each turn its "one Doom Horror, then a Horror, then another Horror", but it might get worse.
