Why not?Cyclops were top creature in HII.

Personally i dont care for Stronghold, I just want Fortress. I always played as those guys. And to find they stuck Hydra's as a level 5 unit for dungeon (another town i never really cared for in heroes 3) is dissapointing.

hmm how about
Thunderbird lvl 5
Behemoth lvl 6

personally I dont like less power but area attack..make them powerfull but more expensive instead..like a true lvl 7 might should be in my opinion

Voted: Don't care.

Was fun sometimes to play with might fraction, but I can live without it just fine...

that wouldnt work though because that would make the three top units creatures. we are talking about a barbarian/orc town, right? so at least one of the top 3 has to be a barbarian/orc. and also, i think the level 5, if not 6, should be a either a troll like in the LotR or a big Ogre.

Not necessarily, look at Sylvan; it has three creatures at the top tiers, even though it's supposed to be Elven and whatnot.

Regarding the Cyclops being 7th level, I think that's good. Actually, behemoths could be scrapped altogether.

I think Cyclops should be level 7, for one town or another. but then the behemoth would be dropped down to either level 5 or 6.or maybe at level 4 would be a "pigmy behemoth".

If behemoths were to be included, they could be made into neutral creatures. I think it makes the most sense, really.

that might work, but it would enrage many stronghold fans.

I'd go for:

1st lvl - Goblin
2nd lvl - Orc Warrior
3rd lvl - Dire Wolf
4th lvl - Orc Shaman
5th lvl - Troll
6th lvl - Thunderbird
7th lvl - Cyclops

Yes,that sounds like an interesting lineup.And behemot could work nicely as a neutral.If a fenix can pass as a neutral,so can the behemot.Besides,he did appear firstly in HIII.

that's a perfect lineup. i'm not too keen on a cyclops monster myself, i always thought they looked crappy, but it would be good as level 7th unit.

Yeah thats a nice line up :) But you never know what those at UBI are planning. Ogres, Centaurs, Behemoths, Harpies, Berserkers, Giants and Werewolves could all be neutrals ;)

You now, the orcs and goblins arent greenskins anymore, now they are brown/red/orange skins according to DM.
