ahhh this is the logic u have making the game more balanced by using weaker units ahh i understand now


Why would anyone want to use a animal army (unless just pure for fooling around)

AFAIK ANIMALS don't get any morale bonusses unless u get up higher in the spirit tree or have items that boost it

swamp snakes and normal snakes are just horrible units LOW HP low speed and low INIT The only snake that is worth mentioning is the royal snake(the only snake that is fast and has no retal)
and yes u have snake strike that tries to remove how weak they are

as for wolves they would be quite decent to have in your army, but only if you were facing NON-undea/non-mind immunity creatures)

as for bears sweet little level2 tank unit(but slow on speed and slow init) it tottaly sucks vs ranged attacks

ancient bears well they have decent HP and more def than the beserker and can regenerate health that would be the only pick i would take from starting island


and ofcourse thorns
their low hp and low damage is pretty much useless vs the undead on the bright side they do have good pos resistance but due to their low hp just plainly useless they die way to fast and without a demonologist or w/e u cannot revive them

and hyena's would be a good unit but not vs undead sure they have a nice crit but after that they just get steamrolled cause of their low hp their speed and init it pretty nice though


All of the animals mentioned above are just WEAKER than the viking units(maybe save for the ancient bear the only one worth mentioning really)

on top of that if you used all those units then you have one SLOW init SLOW SPEED army which would have to take a crapload of damage vs archers before they can even reach them (so LOSSES are MANDATORY)


so if this is your way of helping the community out with your logic wow i am impressed

or show me some vid where u beat the first island with this army
i'm anxious to see

without any reviving and maybe no healing if u get unlucky
i really doubt if u would get past the first island

just think about one ghost blade/poison skull killing one of your stacks and it's unrevivable since no soothsayer

ahh the JOY the BALANCE
