Vanheim Musings
First off, much thanks to all the folks who set me on a correct path with blooded marignon. I demonstrated to my mates really quick how awesome blood magic is. And they were pretty surprised when 300+ devils & some veyr nice Arch Demons/Demon Lords started romping around in their country.
However, now, I\\\'ve begun musing on the Vanheim. Of course, I\\\'m still playing within the very annoying unpatched and no CB mod constraints.
I was reading an old thread that essentially proclaimed Vans and mini SC human commanders as the second coming.... Without CB and pre-patch Vans cost 70 gold, so are they still worth pursuing in bulk for an army?
Also, the human commander mini SC topic was only lightly touched on. Myself being a noob, would anybody point out what things I\\\'d plop on them early game to make them SCs? I\\\'ve experimented with various items, but everything is rather \\"eh.\\" I feel like there is some vital principal behind building SCs I\\\'m missing.
Finally, Pretender wise (and this ties in with the bulk Vans strategy), since I\\\'m playing pre-patch I\\\'m thinking a Vampire Queen SC is in order (unless the super blessed Vans is a smart route to go, even pre-patch). My current VQ has 2A/2W/1D/2B. Quickness and Mirror Image kick off the game. Is there anyway for me to refine this?
Thanks for input!
