Best Fourth Level Creature...

What is your favorite 4th level creature?

I have to say vampire lords.  Good movement and getting life back is a great special that keeps these guys in the thick of battle.  I like to use these guys to take out the annoying troops and clean up the battlefeild.  The trick is to keep them from getting hit from non-living creatures so they waste their special.  Still wish they said "Blah" like in heroes2.

needless to mention...

...vampire lords by far outmach other units in their level, due to the life leeching ability...

I'd have to say Medusae.  Sure, the shots run out fast, but you're still left with a medium-speed walker with average stats and a rockin' special.  Also most of your Skeltons will be dead.

Vampire Lord.  

Crusadors are second.  I did the Crusador vs. Ogre Mage, and the Crusadors killed.  Besides, when you have the Ogre Mage, you usually use his bloodlust instead, because he is too slow to attack.  Tank.

Vampires suck!

Yes they do. Not that they are bad.
Vampires are those that can that one battle around. Use them wisely and quickly you can have almost unbeatable force.

Ogre magi is good but I prefer Crusaders and their double attack. Swing, swing...

The best - Vampire Lord (great special, no retaliation)
Great - Ogre Mage (toughest by far, but slow to get into battle), Crusader (double strike, durable, and all around butt-kickers), Medusa Queen (nice special plus a few arrows)
Worthwhile - Archmage (weak but an awesome shooter), Greater Basilisk (think Horned Demon with a good special), Silver Pegasus (fast but not very tough)
Bad - Horned Demon (they're a solid body but not much more)
The worst - Energy Elemental (poor damage, a bad special, and average durability)

V-Lords

V-Lords are the best beyond question. With only 8 of them you can kill all the resource bonus location except Cyclops and Nagas. Very useful unit for Necro- best deployed as reavers on some heroes with necro specialty to get max skeletons as fast as you can.

I think next is either Basilisks or Medusa... hard to say, same special, and medusa ranged is very nice, yet a little expensive compared, plus Basilisks upgraded are decent speed.

Ogre Magi... not horrible only due to high HP.

Demons- I like em alot. Can do sneaky suprising damage sometimes, especially with their specialty hero. Also somewhat like skeletons in that you can ge large numbers of them.

Crusaders... I don't know, this unit isn't bad, and used well can be devastating, but because of that frequently doesn't survive to do that damage.

Crusaders Rule!

I'm sorry but I must say Crusaders are the most kick arse level 4 Creatures in the game! With their Double Strike ability they simply kick arse against all other level 4 creatures in the game. They even kick arse against a lot of higher levels as well.

I would have to say that Crusaders are by far the best Level 4 Creatures in the game !

Ogre Magi are the best level 4 creature because they have so many Hit Points, and have the ability to cast spells. Their attack isn't bad either.

My Ratings:

1.Ogre Magi
2.Greater Basilisk
3.Vampire Lords
4.Crusaders
5.Medusa Queens
6.Arch Magi
7.Demons
8.Pegasi

Just a simple reminder

BlueGreen if u put 40 crusaders against 40 vampire lords , u know how many vampires you loose ?
I'll tell u, ZERO.
Vampire Lords are the best 4th level troop , no question bout that. Ogre Magi are way to slow for my liking and pegasi look cool but they are nowhere nearer the vampire lords or the crusaders , or the Arch Mages.

Just a thought !

I don't know about 40 Crusaders against 40 Vampire Lords, but in a battle between 50 Crusaders and 50 Vampire Lords 5 Vampire Lords die. More Vampire Lords die against the Energy Elemental because they can't drain blood from it. So against the Vampire Lords the Energy Elemental is the most useful level 4 unit.
