: After some examination of the facts and opinions of
: others here is my list of the following units that
: will NOT be present in M3.
: Mortars:Technology not invented yet.
: Fetch:Not summoned by Balor yet.
: Wights:That is if shiver a.k.a Culwyeh is NOT an evil
: yet.
: Ghasts:Same reasons as with the wights.
: Myrmydons:Not subborned by Balor yet(go to encyclopedia).
: Mauls:Depends on your beliefs of wether or not Mauls are
: a young race created by wyrd or the "Dark
: Gods"early on in the Sword Age.
: Brigands and Dark Archers:Ask yourself why the hell did
: you not see any Brigs or Dark Archers in Myth
: TFL?Soulblighter must have been the first to subborn
: such delinquints!
Comments:
Mortars: yup.
Fetch: yup.
Wights/Ghasts: Possibly. Some people think Shiver is an eternal spitit if evil, and considering that it is only those very well versed in Necromancy who know Wights to be the Messengers of Culweh, it seems likely that she invented them more than a mere thousand years ago.
Myrmidons: No "immortal" Myrmidons, but Myrmidons serving the Light, that's another story!
Mauls: No idea. Probably won't appear, simply because it was Soulblighter who brought them into the civilised lands.
Brigands/Dark Archers: There have always been some who have turned to the Dark, whether because they're narurally bad (Brigands/Dark Archers/The Baron/The Mayor of Otter Ferry), expect to be well rewarded for following a Dark master (Brigands/Dark Archers/The Mayor of Otter Ferry) or because they've been ensorcelled by a leader of the Dark (Archers gone bad/Dwarves gone bad that we saw in Shadow of the Mountain)
Also:
Journeymen: The Heron Guards have not yet allowed Muirthemne to fall and the Emperor to be killed, and so have no need for penance as Journeymen.
Dwarven Paratroopers: We have no proof that the Dwarves hadn't invented parachutes in this period, but it is possible.
