Well that's a human-spider hybrid, I meant a pure spider like... I don't know LoTR Shelob for instance.

Then people would complain because it is an ordinary spidery-like creature instead of a generic monster with a generic name

I don't agree with many things.
Personally - I really dislike golems. I think that the idea of them will be saved but they'll have a very different look like most of the units. About Mages - they probably be females - we have magical Vestals, Glories, Ghosts, Spirits, Maidens... The only male magical creatures are Liches and Dreamwalkers if I'm not mistaking. It's more logical for them to be females. And about the level-up female-male - we all remember HOMM3 Djines?  And Titans will so not be in...
About Dungeon - the Black Dragon is a boss, isn't it? I saw some pictures of it in the Artwork section. So no Blakies.
And... Do we really need Sylvan?

Has anyone noticed that since Heroes IV they just break the game in chunks and give it back to you in parts ? You have to pay for each part of what was formerly in vanilla.
Maybe the first expansion will have town screens ! Or Tower. Or Warlock/Dungeon. Or good music.

You guys are gonna have to get use to the fact that the remaining four factions will be more or less the same as Heroes V. The world of Ashan is what Ubisoft has created and they are not gonna revert their Dungeons and Academies to that of Heroes 3. Some might not like, some might. But in the end it doesn't matter. That's just the way things are.

They tend not to repeat the same creature template. Besides, a giant spider... that's not really that interesting. Cuz the fate spinner covers not only its general looks but abilities you'd expect a spider to have (web, poison).
If you're talking man-scorpions, I'm hoping to see that in the Academy

There will be at least two "original" creatures in each faction.
Of course, it's impossible to predict those.

True that, but what I'm pointing out is that factions like the Dungeon will have Dark Elves and Fortress will have Dwarves. Some ppl are wishing for Heroes III lineups and it simply will not happen.
I think having new original creatures is a good idea. And in the case of the Dwarves, they'll need about four new creatures. I wonder what kind of flyer they'll have.

The thing with the Fate spinner is its spider form is wasted cause it's only a visual feature. It's a hybrid spider that's shooting some energy/poison/whatever ball and even when the enemy comes and attacks it in melee look at its retaliation, it's some for of magical attack  This is spider only in appearance, when I said spider I meant a moving one, not a shooter, attacking with its chelicerae (fangs), possessing some cool abilities like burrowing itself and ambushing or poisoning or web entangling... Fate Spinner is nothing more than a mage with spider legs that you rarely see moving at all.

Unless the Dungeon has pimp units, I don't want to see any more ridiculous prostitutes running around the battlefield. Hard to take a faction seriously when it looks like it was designed by a 13-year-old male.

To be honest, I find it hard to take Dark Elves seriously period. Even when they are not dress to appeal to the frustraded libido of some kid.
And as much as I keep advocating a Minotaur-centered Dungeon, in the back of my mind I know it won't happen without a major overhaul of the lore. But one can dream, though. And aside from that fact I find Ashan rather enjoyable.

My ideas for Sylvan and Fortress
Here are my line-ups for Sylvan and Fortress/Dwarf factions.
Sylvan
-Core-
Warden/Avenger (a female Elf fighter, can switch between ranged and melee mode- like the Hunter and Wardancer combined into one unit)
Basilisk/Deadeye Basilisk- tank melee
Dryad/Thorn- flyer
-Elite-
Ripping Mantis/Crystal Mantis- flyer
Unicorn/Silvermane- fast melee
Druid/High Druid- shooter/caster
-Champion-
Dendroid/Treekeeper- tank and support
Fortress
Core
Shieldbearer/Longbeard- tank
Battle Boar/Gnasher- fast melee
Scout/Poacher- shooter, a Halfling
Elite
Drake Rider/Drake Champion- a Halfling riding a fire-breathing Drake
Flame Priestess/Hearthmother- shooter/caster
Ogre/Ogre Jarl- tank
Champion
Behemoth/Siege Behemoth- the classics are back

To anyone who wishes that the druid will be a Sylvan unit, it's not going to happen. The Druid will be the Sylvan magic hero while the Ranger the Might Hero.

Even though you argued a valid point, its highly unlikely that they will make another spider unit, especially since spiders are associated with the necro faction. and they already have their spider creature. if you like me, want to see a half man scorpion, cross your fingers for academy.

Remember back when minotaurs used to be cool? 
 No, not that far back. But at least they weren't slaves.

I don't mind minotaurs being slaves but i can see how it would have been cooler if they were the original denizens of Ygg-Chall and the Elves formed an alliance with them when they moved in.
I hate the fact that minotaurs, sharkmen and mermaids were all creations of the wizard. orcs, harpies and centaurs are fine but the others is just lazy writing on the part of the creators of the game.
