Voted best in category in the Users' Choice awards.
For enemies that actually properly organize their forces, "my unit" is damned near perfect.
Alas, we mostly want it for use on greenskins and Skaven. And targeting "my allies" for a Skaven is likely to be... disappointing.

Yeah it's better, but I don't think it can catch up at this point, sadly.
Mathilde's M.A.P. doesn't fit well? We have very different opinions.
I'll close voting and start writing the update once I finish waking up.
No and no. Make the best argument you can in the thread and if that's not enough to sway people, so be it. Everyone's free to choose their level of participation, and if someone chooses to pop in once during a given voting period to cast their vote and leave until the next update, that's their prerogative.
Depending how the final breakdown looks I might end up doing something like that, but it'll be entirely fluff.
Added:
- Shape of the object appears unchanged. Usually changes material, craftsmanship, intricacy, decorations, and so on.

Look people, there's an easy reason why the alliteration is the optimal option.
See, the second M in MMM is "Mallable". This means that it can be reshaped to suit our needs.
In other words, we can just pretend that the "M" is actually shaped like an "A"!
THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS!

So instead of reading it as MMM we can read it as... MAM?
This doesn't seem like an improvement.

There's... also runes that were thought lost for millennia. Those are going to be some devastating hammers.

Hopefully no jealous runes on any of them, otherwise they'll be hard to use
I'd think not since they were made for bodyguards, but you never know

Well I am sure they'll regret their life choices, but only for the moment between the weapon hitting and them being splatted against the wall.
If I remember correctly, in quest Shadowstead was fluff-wise described as personification of night fleeing before inexorable, inevitable tide of sunlight. Which is why it does not tire, pays no attention to broken terrain and disappears at dawn. I may be misremembering though.

Ah, but remember that Mallable is an adjective, meaning that it's properties are extended to the following noun. They're both equally mallable.

The RPG magic lores generally seem to miss a lot of spells that should be in them. For 2e (the one BoneyM is using), Ghyran is missing any actual healing spells, and Ulgu doesn't have a teleport, despite those being the lore attributes in the tabletop game. This leads to weird results in this game, where we go from being unable to teleport to being able to get a free one with every spell, and a Ghyran user goes from no healing to healing for free with every spell.Oddly enough, Realms of Sorcery contains no such thing.It has Ghur spells for talking to, taming, or commanding existing animals, but no proper summons to call or create new ones. Crow's Feast is the closest, having the appearance of summoning -- a murder of angry crows suddenly attacks your enemies -- but its mechanical effect is area-of-effect damage. Aethyric crow shapes appear for an instant, pass right through cover and obstacles, go for the eyes ("do not roll for hit location, all hits are to the head"), and promptly disappear.
That would require that Greenskins by capable of telling the difference.
On a semi-related note would the Dwarfs object to us looting Greenskin magic items for study? They might be at least semi-religious but there may be something worth discovering in their ramshackle enchantments.

We kind of have combat-teleporting in Battle Magics. I guess maybe those spells do exist, but have been hoarded/not added to the "standard" spell lists for political reasons?
As long as you don't let them do any harm to innocent bystanders and destroy them after you're finished with study, it would be fine.

So, what's likely to happen with the pikes, which they seemingly haven't used in millennia?
Are we gonna see Dwarven Hoplite Phalanxes?
Or (heretically?) chop em down to spears or shortswords?

We have it in the Battle Magic lore attribute, allowing a free teleport with every spell. However, there is no way to teleport without casting a different spell first, which is kind of whack.
Similarly, Ghyran needs to either cast a different spell first or use full Battle Magic to heal.
