<i>19. How many creatures have more than 2 eyes? Which creatures are those?



20. Which creature dislikes Equilibris the most and why?</i>

19. 2 or 6: Hydra and Ceberus. (Guess that Nomads, Champions, Black Knights and Dragon Golems can be added too if you count their steed in.)



20. Vampires as they suffered the biggest decreases in their statistics and their dwelling cost was raised.

@Karmakeld

Dark Champions are mounted too. So I guess it can go up to 7.

@Dj0rel: I wrongly called the Dark Champions for Black Knights, making it 6.



@ pitsu: Yes, if you count the medusa's hair as eyes. It just ain't that visible..

OK, here are some answers for our final round of quizzes. :)

Question 19:
Dragon Golem (it has a Red Dwarf sitting on it), Ogre Mage (its skull-on-a-stick has 2 eyes), Hydra, Cerberus, Medusa (the snakes in the hair are bound to have some eyes) and creatures with horses (Nomads, Champions and Dark Champions).

Question 20:
While it's true that Equilibris has nerfed Vampires, Cyclopses and maybe Genies while boosting Venom Spawns, Ogre Magi and Nagas, Peasants must truly hate Equilibris. After all, it doubled the taxes they have to pay!
:D

@Karmakeld
The zoomed in model has snake eyes quite visible - http://www.celestialheavens.com/homm4/i ... medusa.jpg

Doesn't ogre's skull have only sockets, not eyes?

Taxpaying was a good one.

You are right that the skull-on-a-stick has only sockets and not actual eyes. I haven't noticed those artworks before. Oh, well, I guess it makes one reason less to choose the Ogre Magi pre-Equi. But, hey, they are still not Leprechauns!

If we insisted on counting the Ogre Mage, we'd also have to count the Cyclops 8| and that's just plain wrong.

It's all balanced and fair, Peasants love Equilibris - they have not only double taxes, but double income as well :)

@Pitsu I only had the quick reference poster to enlarge, and the medusa only got more pixilated..
