Posts from Let's come up with an amphibian race!

You know... I just want to create one more map level... an underwater one.

Underwater would be good. But where would it be? Under the underground?

Then I suggest a hero – a lizardman. Abilities: hypnotic gaze (casts hypnosis), serpentine agility (increases the dodge chance of troops), feast on bones (replenishes the health of troops from the killed), shedding skin (revives part of the troops after battle).

If the race is amphibian, then by definition, it's a reptile. And reptiles are lizards. The city can be located on the coast so that it can be approached from land, and the battle itself takes place on the sand. Instead of a moat, just water. Approach the gates along a narrow strip of land.

Indeed: what about a lizard race??? It might be difficult to come up with units, though.

For example, these:
1 Lizard - Fly Eater (neutralizes the wasp swarm)
2 Raptor - Raptor Archer (poisoned shot)
3 Chameleon - Guardian Chameleon (defense through camouflage)
4 Cobra - Royal Cobra (chance to inflict hypnosis)
5 Monitor Lizard - Giant Monitor Lizard (can swallow)
6 Snake Man - Swift Serpent (archer)
7 Feathered Serpent - Lizard Chief (summons lizards)

Not bad at all. I would also add scolochondria (poisoning from a bite).

That's also possible. And the special properties of the faction are – immunity to water magic and absorption of some damage from earth.
