Let’s come up with a monster.

Silvanis, it seems like you dislike everything – this, that, shurikens, neutral high-level monsters… Terminator or Langhaar would introduce excessive absurdity, but a dragon is 100% a fantasy creature, and including it adds diversity. There are fewer than 10 dragons in Heroes 5, and exactly 10 in Heroes 3, but the issue isn't the dragon itself, but the fact that it's a high-level fantasy monster. And if a player can capture a high-level creature dwelling early in the game, it means they are a truly skilled player, and it's not unfair; it's a well-deserved reward. It's true that equal and ordinary monsters can provide more diversity, but high-level creatures shouldn't be forgotten either. The idea that archangels should be stronger than dragons is just your personal opinion. Dragons are much older inhabitants of the Heroes world, and in general, good should triumph through valor and courage, not through strength and numbers. There should be a creature that stands above the conflict between angels and demons (hmm, I'm getting philosophical). Although, neutral high-level creatures are indeed a hallmark of Heroes 3. In general, we're arguing as if we're making decisions at Nival. ;) P.S. Comrade Nowizard, I'm having a hard time defending your Judge, and you… ;) although he would look better in Heroes 3.
