Poll Question:
The sexiest Stronghold creature is...?
I'm running out of poll titles, but I don't want to repeat.  Once again, I ask you what your favorite creature of a faction is, and for those of you who said this was going to be haven, joke's on you! Ha!
Remember, the listed creature is the basic form, but represents all three possible creatures of that tier (So Warriors are Maulers and Warmongers).

I have to say, this one is realy realy hard. Heroes V Stronghold was by far my favorite faction and I loved every bit of it. Choosing my favorite here was like getting asked by your kids who of them is your favorite.(I would imagine, I have no kids)
But in the end, I chose the Wyvern. Mostly because that is the creature I miss the most in Heroes VI.

I would have picked the cyclops for his devastating abilities, but I have to say that executionner are killing machines too, and they are much easier to manoeuvrate.

I would have to say that the slayer and executioner are my favorites. The amount of things I killed with said creatures, was all of it. That's right, all of it. They are generally my fastest and hardest hitters, and (strangely enough) generally the second to last creature to die in my army if I'm going to lose. The only things that survive longer are goblins... and that's only because I don't use the little buggers.

Untamed Cyclops is just such a bada$$ monster on the battlefield. Honestly they are just insane and such a fun creature.
I love centaurs for creeping and shamans are great for hasting and slowing, and the executioners are great and all..but the cyclops is amazing.
Wyverns? Really? They sucked in Heroes 3 for Fortress and they suck for Heroes 5 Stronghold. I usually skip them and do two stacks of shamans for casting slow/haste.

Eh I don't remember a thing about their stats so I voted purely for what the thread title says.
And the vote went to Wyverns

that's quite logical actually, since blood rage reduces damage, and it increases when you deal damage. and since, as you said, they are the fastest and hardest hitters, then they gain the most blood rage.

I really loved all the units in the Stronghold arsenal.
But I have this special thing for situational units.
So my vote goes for Sky Daughters and Untamed Cyclopes.
Sky Daughters are just too much fun if you're going for a defensive build and can get her rage up as well as her mana. Massive chain lightning! (note this can easily be countered obviously and is kinda bad when the Daughters count is too high. (but still awesomely fun))
Untamed Cyclopes are just too much fun since they're so extremely volatile and destructive. They can both annihilate the entire enemy force, but at the same time cut your own forces in half.  
Edit: goddammit Jaba, surely you know the difference between your and you're, and their and they're...

Right now, the Wyvern seems to be in the lead... odd since that is the unit that I generally ignore if I am going to use anything from this faction.

I know!
I love the cyclops (all forms) as cool and useful...but if the shamans win I could see that as they are also cool and useful (just not as much for me!).
But Wyverns...yikes! 20 wood for a creature that doesn't even get Bloodrage? /skip so I can have 2 stacks of Shamans to slow and haste.
I guess these polls are not based on usefulness in game but rather coolness, and I can see that the Pokai or whatever it is seems popular. To each their own! But--Down with Wyverns  Vote cyclops!

So it is a very close race between the Shamy and the wyverns... is there anyone else who wants to vote, or should I declare the winner?

I agree, early creeping is great, but only with Haggash, so no vote for them over here.
But close.
