Liches or necromancers get a new spell called combine bones.
Effect= Turns 3 or 2 adjacent skeleton units (not corpses) to a skeleton monster. (the one that can be animated after researching animation mastery)
I think it's usefull to turn 3 or 2 normal skeleton warrior/archer/spearman into something better.

Maybe we can research this after animation mastery is researched

What about this stats?

Cost: 8
Researched At: Crypt
Depends On: Animation Mastery
Gem Cost: 6
Effect: Transforms Skeleton Workers into Skeleton Monsters

I said "Workers" because all other skeletons wield a weapon, which monster doesnt

Nice idea

Plus they get kinda useless when they finish their work

Try this: makes summon skeleton dragon able to use skeletons in addition to/instead of corpses.

The big problem with getting skeleton dragons is the requirement to line corpses up perfectly. This would be much easier.

I mean the whole spell. Since you don't generally heal skeletons (it is better to raise a new one that wasting a corpse healing) it might be a good way to recycle units with a few hp less.

OP in my opinion

Don't think so. The skeleton monster isn't too strong after all.

ok maybe dragons anyway?

It is mostly for necro and the dragon require corpses, not units.

I like the idea, it could employ the use of these skeletons more efficiently.

I support this tech!

Sorry for this... but this reminds me of another thing from elder scrolls lol. Maybe some good inspiration

The image was an Easter egg for dragon ball fusion

I like this idea though... It can be extremely useful.

I like that idea.
Also,the skeleton dragon,is very uncommon,just because there are only and only two qays,that is,
1.By summoning him with 3 corpse lining,which is practically very rare.
2.Animating the bones of a dragon,which is still somehow rare,because you only get them after killing a dragon.

And skeleton monsters are useful undead unit,since,if you have a single knight or another strong mounted unit,most of the undeads disappear in one or two shots.

Don't forget about bone towers you can build them transform them kill them and you have corpses in right position

Well,to say this,I've always seen them dissapearing but never dying out,so consider me not known to this fact

Nevertheless, This tech is useful and can be a means to employ a unit that is already in the game, not to mention that effective siege undead is difficult to come across as it is.

And the Skeleton Monster is balanced and approved, I say that this should be implemented.

It works just like the summon dragon effect for the orcs.

In my opinion it should be implemented,with cooldown,3turns cooldown for lich,4turns cooldown for necromancer.Undeads can with skills,if we add this,undeads will gain more power,so it would be useful

We need more people to look into this for approval...

It can be advantageous. What does the big forumers think???

What about a new ability for all skeletons instead? So you won't need a lich to make a skeleton monster. You get two dying skeletons and combine them into a monster using this ability.

Nice idea.Could we call it 'skeletal alloy'

Sir Patroid,we are discussing about the same monster,but a new way to summon it.......

Yes Patroid. It is a nice sprite and we have no use for it in normal games right now (since now every skeleton has its specific corpse).

The monster should become something you make by combining skeletons.

It only makes sense...

Either add this or find a way to incorporate Skeletal Monsters via graveyard... 3 turn cost

But I like this tech better.
