UNIT - Creature Balance + Visual Changes

Heh, that's quite powerful... But I'm not sure how it would play out in a real situation. I can only say that the previous speaker exaggerated the importance of AoE, especially since it still exists for the Emerald faction (right?). But maybe the Crystal faction does need a slight nerf. Or maybe not. Who knows how a human player will deal with it? It will be relatively easy to defeat them in single-player, but that's what single-player is for. AoE always works worse against a human player.

The Bronze (Emerald) faction still has the Acid Breath ability, which is also an AoE spell. The Crystal Dragons have too chaotic a native AoE, and I don't like unpredictability and relying on chance. You can at least enhance luck with artifacts, specialization, etc., but you can't fix the AoE mechanic with in-game tools.

Against the AI, this ability is unrealistically overpowered, in my opinion. In PvP, of course, the situation will be different, although the chaotic nature of the breath can still play a dirty trick on the opponent. Moreover, even in a game against neutral creatures, it will allow you to come out with fewer losses than you might have, which means that in the end, the army will not be as balanced as it should be, because the opponent is leveling up under the same conditions, but comes out with greater losses.

Don't you think that your mod significantly increases the power of the Horde?

Could you be a little more specific about what you mean?

Although I've already received feedback regarding the Cyclops, and I must say, I agree with it. When changing the characteristics, I completely forgot about the Blood Wrath bonuses, so the unit received an undeserved advantage.
