- mod recommended for random map setting - uses both Golden Realms and Eternal Lords DLCs, AoW3 Steam Edition - reworked tech and spec trees for 4 races and all leader classes - new units, artworks, spells - more variety: multiple figures for most units
Eternal Lords DLC added a new player class to the game - the Necromancer. From the viewpoint of gameplay, the class combines the mana-hungry summoning strategy of Sorcerer with some powerful units available in the city, unaffected by morale. However, these special units somewhat fall out of view due to Ghoul unit property - undead variants of vanilla units with a shady texture overlay. Necromancer-specific units (maybe excluding the t4) are relegated to a somewhat auxilliary role.
The 0.5 version of the mod introduced a new mechanic for the class:
Race-specific undead units are two. Both are in general cheaper, but also somewhat weaker than their living counterparts. One is a basic t1, reflecting the tactics typical for the faction, available with the basic class city upgrade (Necromancer's Tower) - of course, only in dead cities. The second unit is a stronger t3, replacing the vanilla Deathbringer, requiring the highest class upgrade (Basilica).
So, these are the vile undead creations available for Necromancer players in the Barbarian Mod 0.7, and I hope you'll enjoy the horrors you'll bring with them to the Age of Wonders!
