Is one of the classes able to summon myrmecoleons? I'm not exactly a font of knowledge for this game, but I can't think of any classes that can, and I can't find any information in the manual or wikis about where you can get them. There is a myrmecoleon proudly displayed on the Dominions 5 website, so I know that they must be out there somewhere waiting to be found.

It's a L3 Scourge Lord summon I think

Yup can confirm, just got to that stage with my Scourge lord last night. Very fun class to play

Interesting, I haven't played the Scourge Lord yet, and that gives me a good reason to do so

Be aware that it is often not garanted that you get a specific ritual when upgrading your character.

Should High Cultists get freespawn units in villages/market villages that are next to the sea, or does the spawn only happen in "Coastal" places?

It only happens in Coastal Hamlets and Ports

That's a shame. my current map is littered with settlements next to the sea that aren't "coastal".... I could have been swarming by now :)

Is everyone seeing an abundance of cataclysms? In the last 6 games I have started gates to inferno have opened in the first 15 turns and ruined the game. If its close to me I can general stop it, but if its too far the demons quickly kill everyone else.

I did have 2 inferno gate events so far out of 6 games, was able to destroy the gate for the first game and prevent them from repairing it. For the second one it's on the otherside of the map and most areas are now being destroyed, but hey I enjoyed the game more when this kind of stuff is happening (said by your average voice of el player).

Turn 15 sounds early, but it can happen. You have a chance of preventing most cataclysms before they happen. Mad cultists and fishermen creates gates and cubes respectively. Green enchantresses cause the primal one (this one is probably the hardest to prevent). The monument to Hades - the hades event.

Are the hidden AI classes still there? Archmage, Bandit King, Goblin King and Beholder IIRC?

Still there. They got some tweaks. AM can recruit apprentices of different kinds, so he is less dependant on his only ritual caster. He sometimes ended up with resources he couldn't spend.

Kobold King Question:
1) Are the chromatic and elder dragons mutualy exclusive? (what happens to a chromatic dragon if i call an elder one afterwards?)
And a modding question for Kobold Kings too:
2) How does it happens that they spawn red/green or blue, i did not found any command letting this happen in the modding manual?
I know it is linked to the gem type of their home province, but for example if i would add an additional unit, corresponding to the same gem type of kobold king, how would i need to add it? Or if i would add recruitement depending on the gem type (for example a axe wielding kobold, or why not kobold eggs of the mines gem color?)

How do I switch to different planes in the map editor? The hotkeys don't appear to be working for me and I'm not sure how the checkboxes in the map settings tab work.
