Bug report: ghoul lords have been tiny since archon prophecy.

@shadowing how exactly do I reanimate ghouls after unlocking the ability to do so? I've had a few fight without actually getting the option

I need those detailed reports to fix mods, so my thanks for them

No worries, just wanted to be as detailed as possible; I quite like these two tomes for my undead factions, bc I like their focus on trash unit spam. As nice as bone dragons and reapers are, theres much fun to be had in endless zergling swarms :P

My bad will fix it

Summoned and created units should be Magic Origin
— Cadavers and Ghouls and Ghoul Lords all lack the Magic Origin unit type, which they should have as they are created via Soul Economy like any other Necromancy units
— Without the tag, they don’t benefit from the Shadow Empire Tree perk that reduces Magic Origin upkeep by 20%, like skeletons and other ability or spell-created undead.

Incorrect Upkeep Costs
— Cadaver, Ghoul, and Ghoul Lord base upkeep cost should be all changed to mana, not gold, as all magic origin units (and thus necromancy-created units) are supposed to have pure mana upkeep.

More comprehensive bug report (Covers this and your zombie tome):

Curse of the Ghoul turns any and all units in a stack into Ghouls
— Doesn’t just create one ghoul, as the tooltip implies, it kills -all- units in the stack except heroes and converts them into ghouls.
— Was observed turning even Tier 2 and 3 units into ghouls
— Seems to keep racial tags, which causes non-racial unit ghouls to have invisible models (It converted a T3 Bone Horror and a T3 Banshee into ghouls, which appeared as nothing more than a floating rag)

Ghoul Legend rank tooltip is broken;
— They have no linked Evolution unit

Ghouls are not tagged as the Evolve unit type
— If they evolve, they need the unit type tag for it, otherwise they don’t benefit from effects that benefit Evolve units, such as the Rapid Evolution Enchantment or the spell that should instantly Evolve them.

Curse of the Ghoul says it sacrifices two T1's to create a houl (presumably, based off some of the demon summons), but instead of doing that it transforms an entire stack of units into a stack of ghouls

great news m8 good luck!

was waiting for it and will start at weekend

Hey dude, your tomes might crash the game currently, I cannot say for certain right now but I will come back once I know it a 100%.

Maybe take a look at your tomes regarding the recent update/DLC anyway? Thanks for these awesome tomes.

Was for one version tell me if it crashes now

Was the crash ever fixed?

Will check

Bring out your dead spells seems to crashing the game.

Started on it yesterday, god distraced by palworld (good game, more like ark with monster catching than pokemon with guns)

@Theobald the last update of this was in December, before Ogre Patch. I reckon Shadowing needs to update all his tomes.

I imagine ghouls having a white square unit card is a known problem ?

Thanks ArchTerran

Tome has a minor spelling mistake in 'Ghoulish Horde' research, spelled 'into' as 'intro' in the sentence "Allows reanimation of ghoul, that can then evolve intro ghoul lord."

Thanks for the mod!

thanks

I love the ghoul's new look!

Should be fixed. Also changed ghoul looks.

I am extra weirded with bodies not loading as ghouls use only base resources

I thought the problem was just visual but after researching "Ghoulish Horde" i'm unable to either summon ghouls or spawn them at cities.

Can confirm that regular Ghouls are missing their bodies. Ghoul Lords don't face the issue.

Models of Ghouls seems broken; Ghoul Lords are fine though.

I'm really interested in this one, do you have a list of spells and descriptions?
