Let's get this forum warmed up.

from Demigod Forums

I read a Demigod preview in PC Gamer a few weeks back and it mentioned some of the units, though only The Rook was shown(big Babylonian-inspired dude with castles on his shoulders).

What would also be a good theme for a Demigod General or Assassin?

We definately need Pirate-Ship inspired General. You can't go wrong with pirates and pirate ships are even better. He can have sails and canons and a pirate crew visibly crawling over him.

A glass cannon spell combo assassin would be awesome. Pop out of nowhere and cast spells to entrap and severely injure or kill enemies almost instantly if you get the timing right, but easily killable if you fail to take out your target quickly.

Want moar ideas!

My idea for an Assassin would be a Ghost-Demon thing that possesses units and uses their body to wreak havoc before abandoning it with an explosion for big gory messiness, only to take another unit and do the same again.

Another General would be an Ice Giant with a freezing aura. The catch is that special units must constantly hose it with flame-throwers to melt it's joints so it can move, but they musn't hose it too much because it loses health. It regains health rapidly though, so the player must balance the right number of flame-assistants. The assistants can't be frozen themselves, but other units can so the General must be careful. When the General is very low on health and close to completely melting there can be normal water hosers to give it more watery mass to freeze again, or it can use any body of water to do it. One tactical advantage the Ice Giant could have is that it freezes water for it's units to get across.

/agree

The artistic merit behind this ranks high. Just on the boarder of "M" rating! Make it so!

I'd like a general that lays down static defenses and the like to be hyper defensive, as opposed to offensive or a micro-manager of sorts.

Now, an assassin that literally was a cannon made out of glass. Eh? Ehhh?

Okay, bad idea, but it made me laugh...

Ok for general what better army than an army of the undead, it could use units death on the battle field as credits inorder to summon skeleton warriors and such. But yea undead army would be amazing.

My Assasin idea a little different, ok call it the worm, it is able to bore underground and come up and devower units like a smaller version of the starwars work, and it could get an earthquake, devower, burrow, and wrap. i think that would be cool.

i thought an assasain would be sneaky look like an enemy unit then BAM
your hes disabled you portal or stopped all enemy ablities
i think a general is more like the a man who stays back assisting his armies healing them making them stronger
and those huge ones would be another class id call the.... assalitores theyd be killing armies and destroying castles
