lev1 - gnolls - average lev1
lev2 - lizardmen - tough shooters
lev3 - dragonflies are the fastest from lev1-6, next to efreet sultans
lev4 - basilisk - all around decent unit
lev5 - mighty gorgon - the ultimate lev7 slayer
lev6 - fastest to get on the level
lev7 - ok, it's only drawback being the lack of speed
two-hex moat is also useful in certain situations.

Yolk and God bless.

Gnolls - Relatively high damage
Lizardsmen - Useful, 'coz there's no other shooter
Dragonfly - Plenty of movement
Basilisk - Petrification
Mighty Gorgon - THAT SAYS IT ALL!
Wyverns - Fast to get
Hydras - compared to h4 - weak, but I still like 'em

Did you ever try to smash a stone with a plastic hammer?
This feeling will occur when u meet Tazar and his fortress troops...

Exactly. I like the Fortress defence abilities. And Mighty Gorgons tule the entire game. Almost. 
And I like drgaon flies. They last suprisingly long... I think they're better than ... say ... royal griffins. Man, I love them...

armorer
Just to mention, the armorer skill gets LESS useful if you have a high defense.

Angelito is right. The only thing that makes fortress unique is their tremendous defense skills. Their might heroes in start with armorer, and from level 1-10, all of their heroes experience a dramatic increase in defense. Tazar, who has armorer as speciality, is the worst of them all... And 'bout hitting that stone with the plastic hammer: Only solution is to get a hammer which is made of a tougher fabric. I am speaking of the Ancient Behemoths.
In addition the fortress has the wonderful advantage of having a native terrain which slows all other armies extremely. Unless attacking heroes have pathfinding, there is no way one can surprise a fortress hero. He will see you coming a mile away, and once behind the defensive walls, you need four times his army to beat him.
Another interesting discussion would be : "What is the weakness of Tower?" In a long game, on X-L map, they sure are hard to come by, maybe except economy... And with "bow of the sharpshooter," the Titans get "no retaliation." From that point it get's kind of tough to defeat the tower armies...
