I agree with SBlister for everything exept the lvl 2 names, the lvl 2 dwellings, and the lvl 3 names. I think the lvl 3s should be sentinels, as I think it sounds better. For the rest I agree with Vilhu on.

'Lizardkin' doesn't sound right. I'd like 'Lizardman' better. And I think the hero should be Enchanter or Sorcerer.

yep. sentinel was a better name than swampguard/swampwarden. guard/warden would show that lizardmen are like some order-aligned do-good creatures.
i propose: newt sentinel -> basilisk sentinel

sorry i didnt notice you meant tier 3. but id prefer tier 4 as sentinels.
-----------------
i didnt mean 2 sentinels. i meant tier4->sentinel, and tier3->something_not_sentinel.
and i would certainly prefer a giant newt to a giant crocodile. crocodiles are ugly. and newt looks more basilisk-like than crocodile.
(yes i know its really not so. dont give me now a bio lesson).

Firstly, this town is neutral, so the lvl 4 name is fine. Secondly, we can't have two units with sentinel in their name, can we?!

No we can't have two creatures with the same name. The Swampguard rides atop a crocodile so we cant call it a newt sentinel. and since zealot is out of the picture, i guess sentinel is gonna be the new name for it. I dont know what baklava, war-overlord, gnoll-mage, golemcrafter and action jack have to say about it though. Once all 8 of us have listed what we want, I can tally up the votes and majority will win. Hopefully the others (crepus, joonasto, sorry i cant remember who else) will vote as well..

JoonasTo, everyones entitled to their own opinion and I hope you don't change yours because this is in essence a vote. But Supreme Archon sounds a bit over the top. And a acolyte cannot preceed a sentinel but it could exist in the opposite direction. essentially its either cobra/viper sentinel or viper acolyte/disciple and cobra disciple/savant. an acolyte can be promoted to disciple and a disciple to a savant. its hard to promote a sentinel (which means guard) to acolyte (which means trainee or recruit). again pls don't change your opinion if you truly believe in what you just wrote. I just wanted to explain myself.
An alternative would be Verdant Archon. There was a word I found out which was EVINCAR. it has almost the same meaning as avatar.
So if at last resort it could be Archon-Evincar.

@SBlister, i thought you just said that its bad to have names that people dont know? and now you propose some EVINCAR?
i'd like
tier 3: viper acolyte -> viper disciple
tier 4: newt sentinel -> basilisk sentinel

I was hoping that you guys would have heard of it. I'm not backing the name at all. Just suggesting it as an alternative for you guys. I'm backing either Grand or Verdant Archon.

I thought it meant green and lush, or alternatively inexperienced. Maybe not.
UNIT NAMES (everything not mentioned I'm fine with):
4. Swamp Guard - Swamp Warden (at the least, put the spaces in)
6. Archon - Grand/Verdant Archon (as said above verdant doesn't seem to fit, and I've got no problem with Grand)
7. Leviathan - Emperor Leviathan (doesn't seem right, perhaps Taninim - Leviathan?)
DWELLINGS:
2. Shore Longhouses - Concealed Longhouses (sounds odd, Shore Huts - Shore Village would be my suggestion)
3. Conclave of the Viper - Conclave of the Cobra (Have Viper Conclave - Cobra Conclave instead)
4. Darkwater Marshes - Darkwater Quagmire
6. Hallowed Chapel - Sanctified Cloister (Cloisters - Hallowed Chapel would be my suggestion)
7. Lagoon - Bottomless/Unfathomable/Deep Lagoon
SPECIAL BUILDINGS:
3. Nesting Grounds - Inc. Croc/Basilisk Growth (too similar to the level 1 dwelling)
Hero Name:
1. Enchanter/Sorcerer/Alchemist (could use alchemist but this would require a change in the culture and history I think)
Hero Racial Ability:
1. Hydromancy.
Please List secondary abilities you would like to see:
1.
2. abstain!
3.
Ultimate:
Sorry if this isn't `voty` enough, rather me giving ideas, I hope this isn't a problem.
Keep up the good work!

No, Gnoll-Mage. Your input is excellent as always. Verdant means grand. I prefer Grand Archon because its like Grand Vizerei. Its a good adjective. at least in my mind.

ok im a serious minority about archon, ill let it go. (btw im quite sure now that verdant means green, not grand.)
but now: i suggest replacing CROCODILES with NEWTS, who are much larger than their real-life cousins. and OMG what do i see: newts lead currently with my vote! its eternity times more popular!
crocodiles : giant newts
0 : 1

Latest update: Baklava voted (though not for the buildings)

WTF NO YOURE CHEATING! swampguard has currently just 1 vote. you.
CLEAR ALL THE VOTES. I NEVER SAID CHAPELS AND ARCHONS ARE OKAY, for example. i could make exactly the same vote, but say:
4. Swamp Guard - Swamp Warden 1 Votes (SBlister)
Newt sentinel - Basilisk sentinel 4 Vote (Vhilhu, Dragon Breath, JoonasTo, Gnoll Mage)
DELETE THE VOTES.
