I was thinking about the kobolds in the game and how they’re half goblin, half naga, meaning they have the goblin “quirk” (for lack of a better word) of getting an extra turn when casting their spell, or they do a naga “quirk” of boosting themselves (gain stats, gain gold, summon an ally) and they have a cool look, halfway between the two. While I think naga often focus on status effects like poison, too, and it would be nice to have a kobold lean into that (rather than the most recent one gaining gold), I like that it gives the combined troop types a cool identity as a mixed type. And I wonder what other combo troops like kobolds would be fun to use.
I’m a fan of goblins, but there’s a few with spells that are too random for me (princess fizzbang, nobend brothers, toadsqueezer), so I’d like to see some combo of goblins and vulpacea wargare, where you are given a choice between two spells and both have an extra turn. I imagine the combo would be weird-looking, all patches of hair and bulbous features, with sly expressions.
As for cool looks, it’d be fun to combine dragons with something small, like gnomes or dwarves, instead.
What about you? What combo would you like to see, either in terms of combined mechanics or appearance?
