For example, as well as causing units to be become ‘Disgusted’ at others, you could morph your ‘forlorns hope’ unit into a big red dragon when on their last hit point, swinging battles in your favour.

Wild Magic causes lots of mayhem and chaos through randomisation of unit’s positions or abilities. It’s also good to see Triumph expand on Age of Wonders 3 with new and (much needed) magical specialisations. It’s great to see the variety of items expanded upon, as it allows for more diverse sets of abilities (not all of them turd-based) among hero classes. While we’re on the scatological subject of shit-slinging, allow me to mention the fact that I managed to forge a majestic magic item that enables my leader or heroes to throw poo for the discount price of 13 gold and 52 mana. Such combinations will let players create some tasty combinations for opponents to worry about. If you were lucky to find two or more quite close to each other like I did, then you can obtain some rather nice combinations of bonuses for your units, such as Killing Momentum and Shrine of Animation, creating enhanced death dealing self-resurrecting units. I believe multiple cities might benefit if they shared a Mystical City Upgrade, but I haven’t managed to test this out.

Whilst Ziggurats, tombs and ruins can already be found in Age of Wonders 3, Mystical City Upgrades appear to be a more powerful variant in the Golden Realms expansion. They can be built once a player has captured an Arcane Treasure site on the world map and provide unique bonuses to that city, such as an Enchanted Armoury which provides a defensive bonus for armoured units. Somewhat similar to the Total War: Rome 2 Patch 15 features, Triumph have created Mystical City Upgrades to enhance city placement strategy for players.
