How to play a faith as a Foreign Lord
This isn't really a new trick to me, but it is pretty fun to play around with. It's easy to re-produce and it's an in-game bug that involves the Lord Editor.
The concept is this: be the Lord of Order as an Executioner or Amazon Princess. This works well because Order, Death and Water warriors can all use each others Legendary Weapon.
First, determine what Lord you want to play as.
Next, determine what Faith you want to be.
Step 1, select your Lord, for example the Executioner (Death Warrior). Choose your difficulty and then click on the "Custom" button to enter the Lord Editor.
Step 2, load a Custom Lord configuration for an Order Warrior Lord. This will switch your Lord to a Paladin Lord and switch faith to Order.
Step 3, Press the "Back" button to exit the Lord Editor.
Step 4, Re-enter the Lord Editor by pressing the "Custom" button.
You are now an Executioner, Lord of Order.
Artifacts, Spells and Units are priced regular to that of your Lord's faith (Death). Selecting units, artifacts and spells of your Lord's Faith (Death) will be cheapest.
You can play any regular Lord as the leader of any other faith:
Grand Magician of Death.
Punisher Lord of Chaos.
Enchantress Queen of Earth.
One thing you'll have to look ahead for is whether or not your foreign faith Lord is compatible with the faith's legendary artifact. If you're not worried about this, you can potentially use other faith's legendary artifacts if you get to them.
So as a Burglar Lord of Fire, you would travel to Earth's region from your native Fire region and just hope that Earth's Lord is a Burglar... or that Life or Air's Lord are Thieves.
The Punisher Lord and Grand Ranger are capable of using each others Legendary artifacts, so a Punisher Lord of Order will work nicely.
Special Champions are locked to faiths and classes. So you cannot be Balkoth of Order; only Balkoth of Death. Nor can you be the Valkyrie of another faith; only water. You cannot be the Orc Warlord of Earth; only Chaos. You get the idea, I hope.
Be sure to have some fun with this.
