Yes and i would add that druids also have generous hp (100) for their level, but i found them weak archers and the bears they summon are very weak compared to say... thorns.

In my exp Unicorns die extremely easy, using the Mystic Egg ability is revealing, i would groan when it brought up unicorns or swamp snakes.

Ancient Ents, fire weakness and mobility problems as others have pointed out.... are disadvantages too far (not to mention difficulty in resurrecting them)... Dragon enemies would be a terrible problem - finally if you lose some they are also rare.

Snipers and elfs are good though (i forgot them).

Others mentioned Ogres, but Ogres' steal action points ability can be very powerful (especially against non-black dragons) if you have the initiative... being level 5's they can also tank for you... a strong unit.
