1. Gremlin Saboteur - Keep it
2. Marble Gargoyle - Keep it
3. Obsidian Golem - Gold Golem.
4. Battle Mage - Good name.
5. Djinn Vizier - Keep it.
6. Rakshasa Kshatri - Keep it. Can't be too fussy.
7. Storm Lord - alc's Thunderlord sounds more appropriate.
IMO, Thunder Lord is better than Storm Lord. Also, talking about golems, in H5, gargoyles are made of stone and golems are made of metal. Now comes a Obisidian Golem! I agree it should be gold, silver, cooper, brass, or another metal... But it's just my opinion...
Quote:
DUNGEON
1. Stalker - Keep it
2. Blood Witch - Blood Mistress.
3. Minotaur Captain - Excellent
4. Black Rider - Keep it. No other alternatives.
5. Acidic Hydra - Chaos Hydra. Stick with the old names.
6. Shadow Mistress - Shadow Archon. Hehe.
7. Red Dragon - Good
- Chaos Hydra... No because it is good, but at least it's already "part of the lore" from H3. But... why Shadow Archon? They could keep Shadow Mistress - Blood Mistress and Blood Witch could become Blood Hunter, Blood Assassin, Blood Maid, ...
Quote:
INFERNO
1. Quasit - Ripped off but who cares?
2. Horned Leaper - Greater Demon.
3. Firebreather - I hear Infernal hound from the others. Still no real good name.
4. Succubus Temptress - Good name.
5. Hellmare - Hell Stallion
6. Pit Spawn - Abyss Lord
7. Archdemon- still GRAND DEVIL!!!!
- I like Hell Stallion (I think WoG used that name as well); Greater Demon doesn't sound good... But it is better than Horned Leaper... What's the problem with firebreather anyway? And Archdemon, IMO, should be Evil Lord.
Quote:
NECROPOLIS
1. Skeleton Warrior - Good name.
2. Disease Zombie - Rancid Zombie.
3. Poltergeist - I like emilsn's Banshee name idea here.
4. Nosferatu - Vampire Elder.
5. Lich Master - Arcane Lich
6. Banshee - Revenant or Reaper
7. Horror Dragon - Keep it simple. Ghost Dragon.
- Plaguebearer would fit bearer to zombie... Instead of Poltergeist, why not Phantom? I liked Nosferatu... sounds better than 'Vampire Elder' or anything like that... And, IMO, Horror Dragon sounds very good... but why not Dracolich? D&D uses it as well...
Quote:
SYLVAN
1. Dryad - Ok
2. Bladesinger - Good
3. Sharpshooter - GRAND HUNTER!!!
4. High Druid - Good
5. White Unicorn - Regal Unicorn
6. Anger Treant - RAGING TREANT!!!
7. Rainbow Dragon - Well if the colors keep shifting then fine. If not I would suggest something different.
- I like Sharpshooter... it reminds H3! Also, White Unicorn sounds ok for me...Raging Treant is, IMO, much better then Anger! I think I saw somewhere another name for Rainbow Dragon would be used... if I find it I place here...

Dude where are you getting all those new names from? Arcane archer? To be hones I prefer Sharpshooter (and not the embarrising typo Sharp Shooter!)
Wind dancer sounds better than blade singer. Singing while using blades? Umm?? But Wind dancer are for me like one who are very quick with using blades in a dancing manner
Vampire prince or princes in general dont have to be of the noble kind that just sits on their arses all the time looking good. When time is right even princes go to war.

The key to accept names of creatures, is to use YOUR creativity, logic, fantasy. To see how that or that creature name fits. It has served me well since I rarely get dissapointed by the creature names in H5 (thanks to that I use my creativity). But I admit that a few names sure sounds funny
I quote myself cause what I wrote above is a bit true since it seems its up to us to do that, being creative to think how that retarded creature name could make sense at all. Afterall..since Ubival are a bit incompetent with creature names.

And is it more logical to have 40 lords? Remember its ubival were talking about, of course they take the lamest way..Nosferatu were better. But I dont mind Vampire Princes either.

Actually, a kingdom can only have one king. It can have as many princes as possible. And since we're talking necro here, it could be from any kingdom and from any time.
One more thing, if a name just sounds bad to you (like Anger Treant), than it's really a problem. However, if the name sounds illogical (Vampire Prince) I suggest at least reading the creature info before you judge it.

Rainbow Dragon is ... well ... I guess it comes from the Luck connection, but really, that's not a good name. They could go for Blue Dragon, Sapphire Dragon, Ruby Dragon, Aquamarine Dragon ...
With all the dragons they could have named it "Can't Hardly Spit Without Hitting Another One Of These Dragons," But maybe thats just me.

Or maybe they actually meant "blade slinger"? Btw I agree with Sharpshooter, a reminder of Gelu's clan

I think they changed name of Rainbow Dragon into Sapphire Dragon and then into Crystal Dragon (perhaps realizing the colour of the new dragon has nothing to do with Sapphire?).
Anyway, for me, Crystal is a poor name, because Crystal is a generalization of Emerald and thus includes that (just like Plague and Disease Zombies didn't go well along each other). I will probably make a small Mod for myself, changing the names in the Sylvan dragon set to Emerald Dragon (currently: Green Dragon), Sapphire Dragon (using Relentless' mod to give proper Corn Blue colour) and Aquamarine Dragon (new "Crystal" Dragon). Thus, all three specia will have a name corresponding to a mineral species, and will correspond to their respective colour.
By the way that leaves the issue with the Dungeon Dragons. I'm currently playing with the Red Dragon mod (for Red and Black Dragons in Dungeon), but when the new Red Dragon arrives, something will need to be done. Perhaps I will need to have basic form go back to being Grey Dragon then.

And the present "black" dragon are in fact dark grey. So first it have to be made blacker by a mod to be a true black dragon.
