Likewise it does not allow me to get more cyclopses. I am sure more creatures are affected. The skill does allow me to recruit more human archers from the initial castle upon leveling the skill. Both of these creatures are described as archers in the troop description so unless I missed the memo, this skill is bugged.  |
No, that's how it's supposed to work. It's a shame about beholders, but I'm sure skill still applies to Elven and Skeletal archers and they are great.
EDIT: I just checked the skill description in-game and yeah, it clearly states that it's only good for human, elven and undead troops. That's kinda logical since +20% leadership bonus to beholders would make them horrendously overpowered.
EDIT: If the description is unclear in English version, blame the localization team. It's a shame that they are so terrible at what they do, the original game has some really nice dialogue.
