Gods & random events

i think it would be cool to implement gods into the game that help or harm you through random events (e.g. hit a city with a lightning or send you a demon to aid you in battle etc.) and that you can influence a gods favor by doing quests for him,  battling against the other gods or building shrines etc....

Sounds like a good idea for a Mod.

Could work in a mod. But it do not fit into the game as the gods (titans) have been extinguished during the cataclysm.

Now sovereigns are the "gods"

Yeah, gods will not be in vanilla.  Now I am sure that some sort of religion system will be added for any number of mods.

Yup. Mod it away. We'll play it.  ;)

A mod which allows you to actually be a god seems more interesting to me.

If made right, it could be pure awesome.

It makes you wonder though.  Since temples will be in the game, why not some religion system?  I just hope there is some mechanics that can both manifest that and make sense for it already in the game.

It could be interesting if the Temples are shrines to the sovereign and give access to let's say Divine abilities? Or infernal in the case of the Fallen. Basically the sovereign is much like a Pharaoh. Maybe a list of spells that enhance cities that have temples or something like that which you can research to gain access. Didn't MoM have sacrificial altars?

Some event system would be nice. It could be used for different events: economic, devine, personal. Everything to be toggled on/off of course.

Divine magic, ofcourse, that is the answer to all fantasy religions!

Divine magic and ritual murder I mean sacrifice are the answer to all religions!
