-  * Soulless: FIXME
-[[hinnom-ea | EA Hinnom]] and [[ashdod-ma | MA Ashdod]]\\ Hinnom and Ashdod reanimate giant longdead with very high damage and moderate hitpoints, making each summoning of longdead much more valuable than it would be for other nations.

+===== Soulless Generation Formula ======
+\\
+==== Basic Information ====
+Each soulless request looks at a few things:
+  * The nation creating soulless
+  * The province ID the soulless are being made in
+  * A chance for national soulless
+  * A chance for arming soulless
+  * The number of corpses to subtract
+----
+Sources and values for national and arming rates for the above:
+  * Montag -3:
+    * 10% national, 100% ArmingChance
+  * Montag -15:
+    * 25% national, 50% ArmingChance
+  * "newunit" called with unit ID -1, unknown if this is used:
+    * 10% national, 100% ArmingChance
+  * Battlesummon, damage -3:
+    * 10% national, 100% ArmingChance
+  * Reanimator priests:
+    * 90% ArmingChance, but national rate varies:
+      * If Jotunheim, 50% national
+      * If Utgard, 25% national
+      * Any other nation:
+        * Reanimator priest holy level is considered as 1 higher if ((closed d5 - 1) < number of friendly candles) in province,
+        * National soulless rate = (reanimator priest's holy level * 8)%
+  * Rituals, effect number 1 [summons, though there are no base game rituals that summon Soulless this way]:
+    * 100% national, 90% ArmingChance
+  * Rituals, effect number 37 [remote summons, like ??Carrion Reanimation??]:
+    * Units:
+      * 10% national, 10% ArmingChance
+    * Commander:
+      * 50% national, 90% ArmingChance
+\\
+==== Spawning Process ====
+  * If there is a province ID associated with this creation:
+    * Roll soulless ArmingChance, if successful proceed as making Lightly Armed soulless
+    * Otherwise, if (Civilian corpses < Military corpses):
+      * Proceed as making Lightly Armed soulless
+  * Armed Soulless upgrade chances:
+    * In EA,
+       * 25% chance to: upgrade Lightly Armed to Medium Armed soulless
+    * In MA,
+       * 50% chance to: upgrade Lightly Armed to Medium Armed, and if that succeeds:
+          * 25% chance: to upgrade to Heavy armed soulless (total of a 1/8 chance)
+    * In LA,
+       * 75% chance to upgrade Lightly Armed to Medium Armed, and if that succeeds:
+          * 50% chance: to upgrade to Heavy Armed soulless (total of a 3/8 chance)
+  * If there wasn't a province ID, you always get Unarmed soulless
+  * If this attempt is subtracting corpses, do that now.
+    * Unarmed soulless subtract Civilian corpses
+    * Any kind of Armed soulless subtract Military corpses
+  * Spawn the following unit:
+    * Unarmed:
+      * ??Soulless#197??-197
+    * Lightly Armed:
+      * ??Soulless Warrior#914??-914
+    * Medium Armed:
+      * ??Soulless Warrior#915??-915
+    * Heavily Armed:
+      * ??Soulless Warrior#2119??-2119
+  * If the chance for national soulless was a success, then potentially modify the result as shown below.
