creature upgrades

wizards|ingredients|creature index|spells

experience upgrades summary

promotions
Each creature has the potential to upgrade to another level (normal to chief, chief to lord), dependant on battle experience.
battle experience
A creature gains experience in battle. This is in the most part calculated based on damage inflicted on another creature.
chief
A chief is the first upgrade a creature can evolve to. The effect is instantaneous. The model changes (typically to include new armour, glowing eyes or special markings).
lords
Chiefs upgrade to Lords. However, "there can be only 1". If another chief gains enough experience points, he will not transform into a lord until the existing lord is dead.
Lords retain all the abilities of chiefs.
scores
Players gain substantially more points for killing lords and chiefs than other creatures.
