The Immortal Pillars (Chinese Pantheon) Trailer

[David McMurdo]

For those that haven't seen it, they've just released a trailer for the new Chinese pantheon. No release date given, but it looks like it'll be appearing very soon. What do you all think? Personally, I'm glad they redesigned the Chinese.

China... wirhout crossbowmen (chu ko nu) and without monkey myth unit...

But we can at least 3 myth based on tiger and beast ... Very doubtful because they are really mythic in China so i mt make me worry.

Chu-ko-nus appear in the trailer. at 0:34, you can see them, more so as it comes close to the war god.

Going frame by frame reveals a lot of stuff you would otherwise miss.

Wukong will 100% be a lesser god. He's just too powerful to be just a myth unit.

Prefer to remove him from the god lineup entirely so that the pantheon doesn't look mismashed together and make him as a hero in the campaign story akin to Arkantos

seeing as that is his place in their mythology as hero that isn't fully a hero. That said He would be more likely an OP near end campaign hero.

Chinese mythology changes a lot depending on the period, current day our practices is a hodgepodge of old folk religion, Confucianism, Daoism and Buddhism

Wukong is a result of import of Buddhism teachings which occurs pretty late

Chairman Xi must be pleased.

Which oddly enough means Wukong would fit perfectly in the minor gods for the final age up.

they can easily show that shifting lore with the minor gods.

This is not the case

Not everyone puts Wukong as a god in the 'Chinese mythology' pantheon
