Well it depends on how fast can the priest convert and how many vicious animals get attracted by the magnet. It could be the animals could chew up the priest before he can even convert one sucessfully.

Yes you would be able to convert animals without damage. ?However take in mind with the magnet the animals will come in droves. let's say normally lions walk around in a pair, with the magnet 3 or 4 pairs might walk to the magnet. And while 2 lions might not pose any danger to the pharoah, 3 or 4 pairs of lions might.

That's the point. If your pharoah dies than your early rush fails..................

How about in 3v3 with Odin's great hunt (doubles animals in area), poseidons animal magnet (attract sthe animals) and sets animal conversion ability you could have a large enoguh army early on to cause serious damage to ur enemy if its a small map

What if the guy is norse and builds a bunch of ulfsarks right away from towncenters and then them being most likely stronger than any one animal combined with the TC kill all the animals. Guys they're only animals. In AOK you could send all the animals in the map after my town center with three villagers inside and i bet i would kill them all. Hmm lemme test this...

Yes, but with a huge variety of animals (20+) they will probably be more powerful this time around. Also, of course you're not gonna go for their TC. Instead, you would go for their woodchopping operation or something. Plus, making ulfsarks that early uses up time you could spend making vils, greatly slowing down your economy. I'm not saying ulfsarks couldn't stop it, just that it probably wouldn't be quite that simple (of course, this is all pure speculation.)
