it says WarForged are immune to disease, but not supernatural diseases such as lycanthropy. does this mean a warforged that gets lycanthropy becomes... A transformer? and yes, You can smack me for asking that.

The lycanthrope template can only be applied to humanoids and giants. Warforged are neither, and thus cannot become lycanthropes and are functionally immune to lycanthropy.

However this is not the first time the idea has come up. Do a search and you can find alot of discussions on the subject. There are good ideas and bad. There are workarounds and custom builds. Check it out.

What do you get when your warfoged is a lycanthrope and turns into a vehicle? Thats right...Transformers.

Except they turn into normal animals, not construct animals. :)

See, there always has to be a rule monkey who comes in and ruins the fun. My DM once gave a person's character herpes for ruining the fun prematurley.

Actually...

"The creature retains the type and subtype of its original form."

So, you've got animal bodies with the living construct type. :D

What happens to the composite plating/body feats? I would let them keep it for flavor. It may make it imposible to pretend to be a normal animal, but the armor would be nice. The Lycanforged (TM) "curse" should be separate from normal lycanthropy, maybe made to increase the fighting power of warforged.
