: Well, the Legends and Lore section has them listed as
: "undead balloons," which matches a Wight
: that's been over-inflated. That may be supposition on
: Fobo's part, but still...
That's word of mouth from beta testers.
: we can see from the Dirigible
: collection that he's constantly spinning
We don't know that he's spinning, do we? Is there a "spinning" collection seqence? I just took all those frames of animation and strung them together in the animated gif, to illustrate all the different viewing angles. I always figured he just had one frame of animation, idle, and the normal 8 (16?) views.
: otherwise
: immobile, over-inflated, and probably undead (or at
: least dead). That makes it a good guess that he's an
: airborne version of a Wight.
God, that would make such a cool unit. You guys at Creation should implement it! Flying wights - little to no explosive damage, but out of reach of all melee units and short-range melee (dwarves), and a TON of pus scattered all over the place.
