Unholy blessing

[DrPraetorious]

Incidentally, as far as I can tell it has no effect on indy priests ability or inability to raise the dead. Are you sure that isn't a patch change or another mod or something?

Given what it does (look at the mod file if you don't believe me) I can't imagine how it would possibly have such an effect.

I thought that unholy bless does not work at all (that even Ermor can't bless its undead).

If the problem is only that other nations like C'tis don't have priests with unholy bless, why not just mod in some extra carefully balanced units for them?

I'm not sure what you mean by "mod in extra carefully balanced units"?

You could change their sacred undead to non-undead, I guess, but that's really changing the whole theme of the nation.

[Kamamura]

I meant add a priest unit (maybe weaker combat-wise) that would have unholy bless.

[thejeff]

Ah, I see.

It doesn't work like that. If I understand correctly, nations either have unholy bless or not. Thus all of MA/LA Ermor's priests (Not sure about EA?) can cast the unholy bless. No one else can.

It probably be more thematic the other way. Undead priests cast unholy bless, living ones cast holy bless. (Possibly with exceptions, like Ermor's Thaumaturges who should do both.) Base it on whatever reanimation is based on.

You're right! I need to switch the brand of crack I'm smoking.

I wonder if that was a different mod I was thinking did that...
