Life sucking is the best...they can even resurrect the dead ones!  I use it alot...even better to give the similar spell "vampiric touch" to 4th level creatures..

-life drain (even though it does not work on all enemy units, this specialty rules. played well and not overpowered by enemy forces too much, this will assure you never have to lose units from this stack)

-spell immunity (a complete joke in heroes 4: complete magic immunity.  strangely enough most people don't realize that, but spell immunity is imo the second best specialty in the game)

-no enemy retaliation (works always, on all enemy creatures, free damage-wow)

Strike and Return is a great specialty.  It doesn't get much credit however because the unit its attached to.  But if a lv 4, say bone dragon, or even devil had strike and return? well, look out!

Charge is descent...combined with haste they can be fairly damaging.  It's just that the thing that has it sucks

Unlimited retailation can be good too...just throw it in enemy and let it use defend, while casting defender and snake strike on it.  As long as enemy don't use spells or ranged attacks.

Unlimited retaliations is also great- around the beginning/middle of the game you can just summon up about 10 or so griffins and send 'em over to the enemy. Everyone who can will attack the griffins, and suffer the consequences. Plus, you can summon another 10 when the round's over!

Spellcasting by far.
Granit most creatures are unique because of specialties, the spellcasting is what make's spellcaster's have good use on the field.

No, I won't attack those griffons! Banish them instead, or kill your hero.

Death Stare : It can even kill crystal dragon
Death Blows : Do more damage than Ghost Dragon
Offensive Spellcasting : Damage of spell attack isn't reduced by the Defense strength of the target

Archangels' resurrection is best to play with and Faerie's spellcasting worst to play against.

Hehe, Lucian, but how many times you have Goldies/Blackies when meeting Faeris as guards? And about resurrection I don't mean it in final fight (which is only one and then the ability is usually not of much help anyway), but for clearing the map and saving your lesser troops. And no other race can take a medium size/full Tope without significant losses but Castle.
