I voted lynx because I find it fitting for the concept they envisioned: fast and aggressive. I know that they said that this option is discarded for now, but if sufficient people feel the same as I do, maybe it will be enough to change their mind. After all, we are still early in the conceptual design stage...

and although i love unicorns, i started to wonder if they would be really okay with a rider on them? i think they are a bit too much indipendent for that.

Truly agree, but without unicorn at all it will be even more sad. In my own line-up they undepended creatures and the emeralds is a stag riders, but it just my suggestion.
So, I think Emerald Knights can be well-deserved to be unicorn riders by some lore like the Sylvan heroes in Heroes V can be.

I voted riding on a unicorn, but I would just as much like it to be a pegasus.

i dont think pegasus fits into sylvan faction in any way
and actually i consider it a huge mistake to have them in Heroes3 Rampart/nature faction as well
one of few things that Heroes3 did wrong

How does pegasus not fit the Sylvan lineup?
Tell me then where else would they fit?

I for one would choose a pagasi riding elf abave all others. It would make me change my vote from Fury to Balance....

I voted for mounted on unicorn, i think that would be alot cooler than the other ideas. Don't like the devs idea of amoured elven knight, seems too cliche.

Copy paste from Wikipedia>

Pegasus is one of the best known creatures in Greek mythology. He is a winged divine stallion usually depicted as pure white in color. He was sired by Poseidon, in his role as horse-god, and foaled by the Gorgon Medusa.He was the brother of Chrysaor, born at a single birthing when his mother was decapitated by Perseus. Greco-Roman poets write about his ascent to heaven after his birth and his obeisance to Zeus, king of the gods, who instructed him to bring lightning and thunder from Olympus. Friend of the Muses, Pegasus is the creator of Hippocrene, the fountain on Mt. Helicon. He was captured by the Greek hero Bellerophon near the fountain Peirene with the help of Athena and Poseidon. Pegasus allows the hero to ride him to defeat a monster, the Chimera, before realizing many other exploits. His rider, however, falls off his back trying to reach Mount Olympus. Zeus transformed him into the constellation Pegasus and placed him up in the sky.

Hypotheses have been proposed regarding its relationship with the Muses, the gods Athena, Poseidon, Zeus, Apollo, and the hero Perseus.

The symbolism of Pegasus varies with time. Symbol of wisdom and especially of fame from the Dark Ages until the Renaissance, he became one symbol of the poetry and the creator of sources in which the poets come to draw inspiration, particularly in the 19th century. Pegasus is the subject of a very rich iconography, especially through the ancient Greek pottery and paintings and sculptures of the Renaissance. Personification of the water, solar myth, or shaman mount, Carl Jung and his followers have seen in Pegasus a profound symbolic esoteric in relation to the spiritual energy that allows access to the realm of the gods on Mount Olympus

that Pegasus is associated more with "divine" or seas/oceans rather than nature
As for Unicorn it is directly linked with forests
thus unicorn fits better in nature faction then pegasus which is not related to nature in any way rather then elf in Heroes3 was riding it

Look. This is Ashan... Even fleas are associated with the "divine".

Can you stop saying that in Ashan everything is divine so your pegasus can find place in this game cause it won't find it.

Can you make the developers stop makeing everything divine? Then I will stop saying it.

And frankly I don't really care what they will or infact will not ride but Unicorns and Deers are units in their own right while we only had pegasi as mounts.

To be honest, I put him in a Free Cities Faction I made a few years ago, which was mainly influenced by Greek and Italian city-states. So Pegasi Riders were really fitting in the  lineup (especially considering the Free Cities connection to Ylath and freedom and adventure). Otherwise, it's really doesn't fit in my opinion in Sylvan... through I don't know which existing faction it will fit.... (Academy? Haven? Stronghold? I don't know...)

MAYBE Haven. But definately not Sylvan, pegasus is not very earthly.

Elves are just as earhtly as pegasus, so if one fits into Sylvian the other does too. The only other faction it could fit is Haven. But Marzhin said the Emerald warrior would probably not be a flyer anyway.

Is it my mind playing tricks with me, or Marzhin did hint that Haven's watchers will have sommething to do with pegasuses?
EDIT: Nevermind, I got confused

I voted lynx, since I loved the Lynx Rider unit.

But I'd be just as happy with unicorn. Make them female too, please. There's an insinuation of beastiality with the whole, "unicorns can only be ridden by maidens", but so what?

Age of Wonders Iron Maidens to make a spiritual return, pls.
