Yeah. Imps are cannon fodder. It's not efficient – even though they die easily, they're still alive, and you can poison them, hypnotize them, and so on. Plus, they have very little health, weak defense, and it's actually easier to create them than to drag them around.

Well, I don't know... personally, I find that Imps are very helpful in the early stages of the game :D What I like about them is their mobility. And by the way, does anyone know what percentage of mana they steal? But in general, regarding this ability, it's similar to Minotaurs... When you play as them, rather than the computer, their ABILITIES don't really seem to work...

yes... they work more often on the computer)) and the magic shields too)

it also works with ifrits) when they are mine, they die quickly) but when they are the enemy, then it's hard to kill them) especially without losses)) although I know that the shield's strength depends on the number of attacking creatures)) ... that's why I get hit hard (... the army is big))
and neutrals or computers (I haven't played against a human controlling Chaos) with a small army) that's why they don't get killed).

Besides stealing energy, they have no other use. Isil described everything.
As for a truly useless creature, it's the pirates. Sea battles are rare, and on land: they move slowly, eat a lot, need to be recruited at sea, and generally can't fight or defend themselves.

yes... pirates are rare... although they can kill some level 1 creatures... although they are less useful... but at least they look good... IMHO!

you're talking about the drawings. But are the Dark Champions poorly drawn? Or the golem-dragons?
Pirates are weak: if you take a ship with pirates and, say, pikemen, the latter will defeat the former, with an equal number of creatures in the army. And I'm not even mentioning archers (for example, cyclops).

Well, the levels are different! And of course, pikemen attack from a distance.

well... I wasn't talking about the second ones, and especially not about the 3rd level ones))) they'll easily kill them. But I think they can kill the Leprechauns, and so on.))

And I wasn't talking about the design of other units either. There are many beautiful ones there. Although there are some bad ones too... for example, the Elves. IMHO.

No, pirates are quite good for their first level, especially on the sea. They move quickly around the ship, and if you also cast a speed spell on them (by the way, it's the most common spell, and scrolls are often found), or something like Bloodlust... The only downsides are: 1) they're not useful on land, and there aren't that many sea battles; 2) they can also lower morale if you're playing a good faction.

If I have to play as Necropolis, then both in online and offline (especially in offline) I always prefer Imps.

That's what I'm talking about: at sea, the level is more important than the icon of the ship in the warrior's abilities. Although, in my opinion, on the sea (in equal numbers), pirates will be defeated by centaurs, halflings, and possibly wolves.

In my opinion, the most useless unit is the Troglodyte. They're weak, don't really do anything, and their ability... it's like no one ever uses Blind on them.
And you can't get them everywhere... basically, they're trash. But don't talk about Imps – they're a great unit. They fly very far, block archers well... and with Demonology, you can just have tons of them.

Well, only if you are playing as Chaos, then it's okay. Although the computer recruits everything in large numbers. Personally, if I pass by, I just loot the dwelling, but I won't recruit anyone. Indeed, a useless unit, but for the sake of gameplay variety, there should be more of them (especially neutral ones):D.
