Hint 2:
That's a creature.

NOOOOOOOOOOW, it's easy.

Well, no guesses, I think I shall reveal the thing then, because the hints were, er, somewhat related to one of the phrases only. :slap:

We are talking about a skull. Explaining, shall we?

Every bigger creature shall have it
For the ideas to keep them safe
A necklace is shown beneath many faces
From those killed in dungeons indeed.


Every bigger creature shall have it, because hydras and their upgrades have them on a necklace (beneath many faces, because it's a multi-headed beast). To keep ideas safe since it contains the brain. Killed in dungeons because hydras are Dungeons units, and those who got killed in there are the unfortunate people who have their skulls as souvenirs.

Easy, easy. :rolleyes: Next one, somebody!

Let's have a go shall we?

We have strength, we have skill,
We are shy, and we shine.
Run out we do not, and tougher we are,
With blades, aye two, we strike.
Hold us to lead.

:no: there's a few pretty obscure references in the riddle but I guess that's the point, I'll see how the guesses go before giving hints

awwww TT, you dirty bugger, you got it!

We have strength, we have skill, (strength being a stronghold mention)
We are shy, and we shine. (shy for staying out the back)
Run out we do not, and tougher we are, (they have 24 shots, and tougher is a reference to the upgrade)
With blades, aye two, we strike. (double bladed axes)
Hold us to lead. (hold for the other bit of the first line, and lead to identify as the chieftains not the vanilla variety)

yo is up homey!

indeed they are, but they have not double blades, nor are they aligned with the stronghold, and they certainly aren't shy

I'm pretty sure that Crusaders have double bladed swords. I guessed chieftains because as i recall the upgrade get's another axe.

I was actually referring to the fact that the axes the orcs use are double bladed, and swords are single bladed, it's just that they are sharp on both sides in a lot of cases

so where's your riddle?

Red and black right in between
Fay and blight and translucent too

WoW! I actually got one right for a change.

Okay, here's mine:

Enduring am I with much wisdom
Defending vast areas of my kingdom

I take my time and set my trap
With snare attack and twisted wrap

Your only hope to be set free
Is when I depart or you kill me
