-Arcata Warriors. Health 20(-10)
I suggest remembering that the word "warrior" is spelled with the letter "И" (воИнственный), and not "войны" (war) or, which is approximately the same mistake, "воены" (military) or "вояны" (soldiers). Especially since this name (Arcata Warriors) exists in the game. Although, I feel like I wrote this for nothing; I hope it doesn't start a trend of using "воены/вояны" instead of "войны." :D
-Banshees.
Apparently, the correct spelling is "banshee" (without the soft sign), but this is, at least, a mistake by the game's translators.
-Crossbowmen. Damage 3-5 (+1 minimum damage and -3 maximum), Health 13 (+3), +Maneuvering.
Ability "Accurate Shot". Now the range is 4 cells (+1).
(Thanks to the "Accurate Shot" ability and increased range, Crossbowmen deal colossal damage if they shoot from close range, and "Maneuvering" will allow them to severely "punish" the enemy if they attack in melee)
An interesting nerf to an already weaker upgrade. I recommend that before making such controversial changes, at least familiarize yourself with the TE mod, which has already solved a similar problem, equalizing the upgrades, or RTA (similarly). Then you will have an idea of which direction to move in (benchmarks based on tournament games). I will not offer my mod for consideration, because I did not just equalize the creatures, but created new ones, based on a new mechanic, which is somewhat different from the goals set here.

To roughly equalize the upgrade and the alternate version of the crossbow, it is enough to make the range of the armor-piercing crossbow 6, while keeping the stats unchanged (no penalties to damage). The armor-piercing crossbow is completely overwhelming and outperforms the direct-fire crossbow on the entire range, as suggested above.

And also, I thought that "without fanaticism" implies minimal, conservative changes to obvious imbalances, but this mod, it turns out, represents an alternative balance, without restrictions. As do many others. Since the changes are really significant.
