Some of my guesses were right, but mismatched. Like the Banshee as an upgrade for the Wight instead of the Ghost? Got Skeleton Warrior right.

ok, I agree not 7 since is a high likely scenario, but then only one for 7 it's too little, maybe one for guessing that it would be the renegades and one for the line-up

If sorrow strike will act like cursing attack (casting spell at advanced level), so in this case -3 morale and luck, it will surely come in handy. I sure wonder, what death wail of the banshee does, but it cant be bad since  damage and attack got cut down.

ok, the update..

Darkeye:

Emilsn:

Good guesses:
Quote:

Skeleton - Skeleton Warrior - Freezing hatchet(slows enemy)

not really, bah, the name is good.+

Lith-Maethor:

Good guesses:
Quote:
1.Skeleton--> Skeleton Warrior - stronger melee unit... makes sense

indeed.+

Quote:
4.Vampire--> Nosferatu - closer to the HoMM3 vamp

not really, the name is ok though.+

Me:

Good guesses:
Quote:
1.Skeleton-->Skeleton Warrior, I feel it's a certain point here

sort of.+

Quote:
4.Vampire-->Nosferatu. Perhaps less durable, but with more powerful life drain.

not really, but the name is still ok +

Iblis:

Good guesses:
Quote:
1.Skeleton-->Skeleton Warrior, ditto. Pump up the hitpoints marginally, slight offensive.

Yea. except the hit points part, that is.+

Quote:
3.Ghost--> Poltergeist. Knocks target back two squares, much as the fortress unit.  25% Ethereal, slight HP boost, slight offense boost.

The name was a bit difficult to guess, nice job here, the rest isn't really true +

Homer171:

Good guesses:
Quote:
Skeleton > Skeleton Warrior = Better Att,Def,Speed than Skellie Archers

I'm getting tired of this guess +

Quote:
Vampire > Nosferatu = No Sword anymore. Better Att/Damage/Initiative than Lords but weaker in Def/Hitpoints

Exactly opposite. The name is still good, though.+

Quote:
Lich > Chaos Lich = A bit weaker than Archlich but has Raise Dead spell

Ok the name is bad, but.. raise dead - what a great predicter you are! +

Godwine:

Good guesses:
Quote:
1. Skeleton �> Skeleton Warrior: stronger, more heavily armored skeleton, armed with a sword (people would still probably rather have the archers)

Wrong! Mace! +

ChironCentaur:

Good guesses:
Quote:
LV. 1 Skeleton--> Skeleton Warrior

that's it? Where's the description? ah well.+

Necrorevan:

Good guesses:
Quote:
Skeleton --> Skeleton warrior (sure about this one) with better stats and black armor like in Homm 3

That wasn't really hard to guess, I see.. +

baklava:

Good guesses:
Quote:
Skeleton - Skeleton Warrior (armoured, with a tougher, meaner axe; melee but useful and quick - very quick)

well, sort of..+

Whew, Homer171 is quite close to victory.. still 3 rounds left, tho.


edit: watcher83, I will update your score tomorrow. my eyes bleed (,)_(')

We hafto wait Orc upgrades so long still but now we can quess both upgrades. YAY

Goblin > Hobgoblin > Kobold = Slow attacker and weaker creature whit mask some extra abilities.

Centaur > Centaurus > Centaur Captain = Strong shooter and shooter whit presice/piercing shot ability.

Orc > Orc Warrior > Orc Fighter = Warrior is more defender whit big shield and Fighter is little faster.

Shaman > Shaman Axis > Sage = Diffrent spells. Haste & Slow. Decay & Fortune. Battle Drums (increases allies rage lv)

Orc Warlord > Ogre > Orc Chieftain = Strong, Stronger, Strongest! What other there is to say? Oh yeah Slow, Slower, Slowest

Pao Kai > Serpent > Wyvern = Wyvern is mutch stronger in 1vs1 situtation but Serpent is faster and probably the only creature of "Horde" what can fly over the battlefield once. I doubt this but Breath attack would be great for Wyverns (they are Dragons damned!)

Cyclop > Cyclop King > Homer's Cyclopes = I get my own Cyclop nah nah nah naah! Kings are little like Magma Dragons they have high attack instead of high defense. Rage will increase their damage and they become stronger than most of lv7 when they are in lv3. Ranged Cyclop would be nice but higly unlikely imo. My Cyclop just likes to eat Goblins and get fat. Some atribute changes from eating *burb*

I think the ogre will be an ogre not an orc.

Well i hope there would be more creatures but seems like there are 2 Orc tiers and no Ogres, Trolls and Behemonths. Some of the upgrades could have diffrent name and not allways the lame end names: War, Warrior, Fighter, Chieftain, Captain, Commander, Master, Lord, King, Arch, Magi etc etc..

I just need to make a haven alternative line up, then i'm all set for next week

Peasant: Pikeman, more dmg, no bash, just offensive (or Pawn, 2gold pr day but ... sucks evenmore!)

Archer: Longbowman, no ranged penalty, 2-10 dmg, 8 health, 5att, 3 def

Footman: swordsman, 20 health, 3-8 dmg, 7 att, 8 def, dobble attack, enraged

Griffin: Royal Griffin, No battle dive, 10 att, 7 def, 7-16 dmg!

Priest: Cleric, Aura of Faith(+1 moral to all around him), 14 in def and att, 16 mana

Cavalier: Crusader, More jousting bonus 7% instead of 5, 23 in att. and def. just nerf a little in stats

Angle: Seraphin, 200 health, 50-60 dmg, 32 att.

EDIT: Thanks to the people who kindly suggested other names for some of the upgrades, ive changed them ...

I'm not sure it's fair to degrade the crusader that much(tier3), I think he should be a tier6 unit (neutral or in another faction)

Well, in H3, Crusader was the upgrade of Swordsman on tier 3 ... But yes, I'd probably go for Crusader as Cavalier upgrade, and then Swordsman as alternative Squire. I'd also go for Seraphin for alternative Angel upgrade, and probably either War Griffin or Holy Griffin instead of another Battle Griffin (unlikely). Pikeman, Longbowman, and Monk are sound guesses.

I agree with you alc. Except Monk (I think It'd be stupid - priest into monk, but this is a game though... maybe Cleric? but same reason here). And Royal Griffin, I'd say.

Pikeman is also good, I miss him. But I think something which gives 2 gold (~~Landlord, -owner) would be also interesting choose, especially for haven. sadly, it won't be both for sure

Cleric and Royal Griffin are indeed very good guesses. I think also you are right that although the Pikeman would be a nice addition to the line-up, it's more likely to be something that exploits the tax-payer aspect of the Peasant.

What is this Seraphin, and well ... Swordsman sounds kind of "ahaha you suck dude" and sure, crusader rocsk every level ...

Royal griffin, check Just out of names at that one

EDIT: Indeed Doomforge, Academy is next... Then Fortress, finally Haven... and then Boom ! Orcs . and then a game release
