I am interested in seeing the descriptions of the creatures. I am not sure how chimeras fit into a snow town. I was hoping for a Yeti for the snow town too. The levell 7 may be a construct, but how does ice upgrade to crystal? Maybe refering go a clearer for of ice?

So fake.
Not even Nival would come up with such worthless unit-names.

They still arent sure whether the Sylvan level 7 monster is a gold or emerald dragon, thus I would not take the names very seriously.

If that's true, I think it's another step in the wrong direction.

Yes, I want to see dwarves back, but all the other creatures with the chimera being the only exception are some products of a single person's imagination, which bears a great risk of failure.

It would be safer to include creatures like the Naga, which is better known and surely contributes more to bringing back the old "Heroes feeling" than an "Elder Giant" (whatever it may be).

Everything in the town needs to be either a dwarf, or something that lives in the snow or mountains for the town to make sense. I think nagas would not make sense and would be too similar to the wizard's Rakasha. We should find out more tomorrow.

To my recollection only 3 of the 6 factions in H5 have a dragon as tier 7 unit (as in H3)...

Ecapt that in H3 there were 8 towns, so the % wasn't as high as 50 in that one.

Neither would fire worshiping Dwarves if the Phoenix wasn't a spell already. :disagree:

Then again maybe, just maybe they'll take something from #4 and make some town creatures summonable.

since when did they say a crystal avatar could "not" be a dragon, maybe they just got tired of naming them "dragons". could just be a huge ass ice dragon.
