Posts from Swamp race by NickShoker.

I decided to create my own swamp race. The main idea behind the swamp dwellers is that they have now become more pirate-like. In reality, it's a kind of hybrid between the Fortress from Heroes 3 and the Dock from HotA. I also added it here: /topic/10300/ Lords of the Marshes (Citadel) Army Composition: 1.1. Troglodyte Blind, eyeless cave creatures armed with spears. Melee combat. 1.2. Troglodyte Headhunter Experienced troglodytes armed with tridents. Melee combat. 2.1. Lizard Warrior Humanoid lizards armed with cutlasses. Protected by light scaly armor. Melee combat. 2.2. Lizard Archer Humanoid lizards armed with bows and wearing light scaly armor. Ranged combat. 3.1. Gnoll Mages’ experiment to create very fast warriors by crossing humans and dogs. Armed with maces. Wearing light armor. Melee combat. Mobile unit. 3.2. Gnoll Marauder Elite gnolls armed with one-handed flails and wearing medium scaly armor. Melee combat. Mobile unit. 4.1. Medusa Mythical creatures. They look like humans but have a snake tail and snakes instead of hair. Ranged combat. Caster. 4.2. Gorgon Medusa Medusas who have studied magic well become gorgon medusas. Ranged combat. Caster. 5.1. Nix Humanoid crocodiles armed with halberds. Protected by medium scaly armor and shields. Melee combat. 5.2. Nix Pirate Humanoid crocodiles armed with heavy halberds.

Key Features: This is a race of reptiles that worships no one. Regular armies are colored green. Improved ones are blue and green. Among the casters, there are spells to slow down or disable enemies. The city consists of huts in the middle of swamps located in a sea bay. At the head of everything is a huge stone fortress-port. Faction ability – Swamp Aura. Temporarily weakens and slows down enemies.

Suggest a better name for the faction (must be two words), and also write what you would change.

I would change one of the first two levels – it's just a repetition of the lizardmen.
Lizardmen corsairs don't really fit thematically as an upgrade.

Lizard Corsair doesn’t really fit as an upgrade in terms of meaning.

The fixes have been included.

The faction can be named "Lords of the Marshes".

You could create a skill called "Summon Basilisk" that summons a huge snake, fighting on the side of the summoner. It could strangle opponents or petrify them with its gaze. Alternatively, you could create a similar creature within a faction.
