Ashan Necropolis= Twilight
Ashan Dungeon= Fifty Shades of Grey
(Erwan comes home from work)
Erwan's wife: "Hello, how's been work today?"
Erwan: "Great as usual, they all praise my awsomeness ofc." ... "today I was discussing with the artists the direction in which we want to develop Dungeon art."
Wife: "So any luck?" "you know, honey you can always ask me for advice. Afterall, you said I was very helpfull with my Twilight insipired Necropolis you guys did in H6."
Erwan (cringes): "Yea about that ..."
Wife: "They loved it didn't they?!" ... "And you said reusing this idea for H7 will probably be most genious call in your carrer." ... "And it is true! I already decided which car we're gonna buy next month ... and my new coat, I ordered at Gucci is being tailor made for me right now."
Erwan (to himself): "I only gave her those things, so she would let me go to the Bahamas alone."
Wife: "what was that?"
Erwan: "Huh?, was I mumbling?... Yes they loved it, it was great idea honey..."
Wife: "So I got even better idea, this time for Dungeon faction."
Erwan: "Oh dear ... You know honey, your ideas are great, and we at company always love them, but you don't need ... what I mean is, sometimes it's best that we discuss them proffesionaly with co-workers..."
Wife: "Nonsense, I can go there and talk to them myself, you know they always listen to me. Some things just need alternate opinion from time to time."
Erwan (visualy defeated): "Ok, what do you have in mind?"
Wife: "Well, you know, since this faction is named Dungeon, do you remember this book I read few weeks ago?"
Erwan: "Fifty... sometinhg... grey?"
Wife: "Yes, 50 Shades of Grey. It is very insightful and stimulative. Specialy in dungeon category.... here" (She reaches to her drawer, and produces some rough sketches of men and women in tight leather and bondage gear) "look at these, they just scream H7 dungeon, don't they?"
Erwan: "I'm not sure about these ... they look kinda ... you know..."
Wife: "Don't be such a prude. It's what's fashionable these days. This is the new trend." ... "It's perfect mix of good and naughty."
Erwan: "That may be true ... but I just can't see this fit with Ashan..."
Wife: (sigh) "Must I realy do everything for you? Just add some purple stuff around them ... here, look" (she takes purple Tempera, and smears it over the picture) " And put some elven ears there aswell ... voila, What do you think?"
Erwan (looks carefuly at the pictures, visualy impressed): "You know ... this might just do ... yes, the purple screams Ashan ... and that cat o' nine ... This is ... impresive!" ..."Yes, now I know why I merried you. You give me such inspiration, that even my closest co-workers can't"
Wife(proudly): "So, you like it don't you? I knew you would, I know what gets you going more than any co-worker at the company"
Erwan: "Yes, you just outdone yourself! I'm going to e-mail to my right hand man at once! And he will approve of this, I just know it ... afterall, he must!"

Grim Reaper, I like their first ability but even though second makes the most sense on this unit, I am wondering how will they balance it out because judging by description it will be overpowered as hell lol.
I guess that this is their standard ability (25% chance to kill a half of stack), although it sounds like something more powerful. Other possibility is the ability of Pit lords from Heroes V - every attacks kills at least one unit.
But that would be too weak on a champion unit, because if both me and opponent has around hundred champions, I don't care if manage to kill one more lol. And it will be pretty bad against cores and elites.
Now when I think about it, Gorgon's Death Stare from H3 would probably work the best as ability that scales when you have higher number of Grim Reapers.

Maybe because wraiths were "death incarnate" in h5? And reapers are mounted wraiths? And the only thing they got in common with the h5 death knight is the horse?

Pardon me, but did they say that Reapers were the redesigned version of Death Knights before? A lot of us thought of them as Death Knight + Wraith. Suprise-surprise.
P.S.: ah, Lizard got it first

Anyway, i do wonder where does this put the H5/CoH wraiths. Are they vampires too? I like in way since vampires should be superior to liches in lore and they were the lvl 6 unit

Wights and Wraiths appear when a living being dies with an intense feeling of frustration, anger, or hate; the desire for vengeance is the most common cause. Racked by remorse and consumed by rage, they are very difficult to control for the Necromancers.
So, nope, Wraiths are ghost-type.
Am I the only one who can't access the blog?

Came to say this. It'd make no sense to make a flat 1 kill not matter how many units you have...H3 gorgon's DS show the way to implement this ability in a very pleasant way

First off, zero relevance. Secondly, after Heroes 6, the Wraith was also a requested unit, so no point there.
