I think it's pretty balanced, you just have to make sure it doesn't get to attack, otherwise you'll soon be pretty much dead meat
Archers, area destructive, attack and return, no enemy retaliation... if it's not balanced it at least adds a bit of strategy

With tier5 they are balanced indeed, you shouldn't have to worry about beeing flooded by hundreds of them.
Good H2 Ghosts are back!

I can't recall you asking me, huh?
- the colour palette is not in my taste (but I must admit it fits well)
- this creature has no script and camera files, as well as an editor icon
- unbalanced
- renaming any ability is unfair
- very nice design and concept
- high playability
One of the best NCFs imo.

well, it looks rather grey in the gimp but green in game. I wasn't totally satisfied, but I think it looks decent enough.
- this creature has no script and camera files, as well as an editor icon
I don't know how to do. and I don't know what's the use of a script.
- unbalanced
maybe
- renaming any ability is unfair
why?

Awesome! Great idea!
He looks a little bit too green? Or is it me?
And isn't he a bit unbalanced as radar said!?
(Unbalanced when a player get them, balanced when computer get them)
Infinite Howl??! Ind my hand i could kill a lot of creatures! way more kills than any other tier 5!
Go for the weak enemy, and keep doing that until you have a massive army! The computer would attack the nearest and weakest! but that's not a good tactic!

As soon as I learn scripting I will add all these creatures to my peripeteia map, I promise!
So far there's no real support for NCF from any mapmaker, is there?

not exactly infinite, but it's rare that a creature activates 999 times its ability in a battle.

I've just replaced the download links.
the files are in .pak instead of .h5u (maybe it was useless for the texts) I added a camera (I don't know what the camera do btw)
and an icon for the mapmaker (I think)
could someone tell me if it is good?

I can't see your Ghost Knight, or the magog in Map Editor, but they appears in the game both, so i don't think there's anything wrong!
