Inquisitors vs. demonologists vs. archmages

I believe we are getting different viewpoints here, but are still getting very valid arguments with regards to the pros and cons of each of the 3 units: inquisitors, demonologists, and archmages. TemjinGold hits the mark as to why this is so; it really depends on the other units that you have, the spells and dragon abilities that you use, and the tactics that you employ. There are no outright shoo-in units that would always be good in any team (Except for maybe black knights with shard and eviln support ). So try them out and see how they complement your team and playing style.

Not to mention that Archmagi have a very high crit chance and damage later on with the mage dress and other gear. Even their telekinesis comes in handy in many situations.

Speaking of Eviln support, a stack of Boners is easily my favorite dragons now. Mage double phantoms turn 1 and both fly over and fart to get everyone's attention. At the end of the fight, Eviln lifts a crazy number of them. What's not to like?

Is... is that how we are referring to bone dragons now... as Boners? Could I make a petition we use 'Bonies' instead? I'm worried we will all tell our significant others, without thinking, about this great place to get Boners in the game we've been playing...

And the blue pet dragon even gives "Bonies" +1 initiative (on top of what the Order of Darkness(?) skill gives). A good tag-team for the usually solo black knights.

As a percentage "resurrect" instead of fixed hit points, the Eviln spell is overpowered. The requirement of using a dead body is not even that big of a disadvantage; even when fighting an all ghost or all droid enemy (ie. enemies that don't generate corpses), you could "egg" out a suicidal ally using your pet dragon.

Fly over and fart... lol I love that. Maybe the dev should change the poison breath animation.

Oh and you can also create dead body with spells too. Pretty neat.

Meaning to ask: Does anyone know if the ahh Bonies count as dragons for Voice of the Dragon? If so, I'm suddenly itching to play a warrior with that build...

Bone Dragon does get the morale boost from Voice of the Dragon.

[DGDobrev]

Really? Is this confirmed? I though Bone dragons get their morale boost from Undead morale-boosting items, because they are undead.

I think this way because when calculating morale, Dragons get reduced morale(-1) if there are lizards in the army, with the exception of the Bone dragon (because it is Undead), which excludes him from the dragon family.

See the attached screenshot. The Bone Dragon also receives the initiative bonus from the blue pet dragon.
