Well I've finished, and the town comes out fairly near the top with my scores (about Sylvan level). This is pretty much fine, unless you want a weaker castle with good skills etc., in which case a few changes will be needed. The only thing I'd do beyond what I had earlier is reduce the number of shots of the Archons:
Unit--------------Attack-Defence-Damage----HP---Mana-Shots-Initiative-Speed-Cost--Growth
Serpent Fly----------2------2----1 to 1-----4-----0----0--------9-------6----25----19
Coatl----------------2------3----1 to 2-----5-----0----0-------10-------8----40----19
Lizardman Prowler----3------3----3 to 4-----7-----0----8--------9-------5----60----10
Chameleon Prowler----4------4----4 to 5-----8-----0---10--------9-------6----90----10
Viper Sentinel-------3------5----4 to 6----20-----0----0--------8-------5---120-----8
Cobra Sentinel-------5------5----5 to 8----30-----0----0--------9-------6---175-----8
Swamp Guard----------8------9----8 to 10---45-----0----0--------9-------5---370-----5
Swamp Warden--------10------9---10 to 12---55-----0----0-------10-------6---430-----5
Templar-------------14-----14---10 to 16---65-----0----0-------11-------6---580-----3
Praetorian----------18-----16---12 to 25---72-----0----0-------12-------8---760-----3
Archon--------------18-----18---18 to 23---85-----5----9--------9-------4--1450-----2
Grand Archon--------20-----20---19 to 26---100----5---11-------10-------4--1800-----2
Leviathan-----------27-----29---20 to 38---165----0----0-------12-------9--3000+1M--1
Emperor Leviathan---29-----30---25 to 50---190----0----0-------12-------9--3500+1M--1

@ SBlister, Serpent's bite, Dreaded fog, Dwellers of the Deep (just change the name to Children of the tides), Adrenaline rush, Arts of war, Seafarer, Fetid bog
@ Golemcrafter, I think something like the tower theme from heroes III would be best, although I'd like to see some guitar and drums in heroes... Personally, I'd change the complete heroes soundtrack to this:
Haven - Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin or Knockin' on the Heaven's Door - Guns&Roses
Inferno - Highway to Hell - AC/DC or Hell Ain't a Bad Place to be - also AC/DC
Necropolis - Children of the Damned - Iron Maiden or Master of Puppets - Metallica
Dungeon - Tainted Love - Marilyn Manson or Fear of the Dark - Iron Maiden
Academy - Spellbound - AC/DC or Hypnotize - System of a Down
Sylvan - Smoke on the Water - Deep Purple or Question - System of a Down
Fortress - Immigrant Song - Led Zeppelin or Another Brick in the Wall - Pin Floyd
Actually, for our town, Welcome to the Jungle by Guns&Roses would be perfect
There's probably more songs that would fit, but I can't seem to remember any at the moment

No no Baklava, Symphony of Destruction by Megadeth for Inferno!!!
Oh and btw, here's another argument why the Leviathans can be weaker creatures as level 7s... because their drain strength ability will eventually make them more powerful then when they started out...
Ok I think dwellers of the deep and arts of war will be added cuz they are good. the others are still left to contention. I was thinking for dwellers of the deep, this gives the nagas the ability to call upon some large sea creature to act as a ship and transport them around. We could call this creature dweller of the deep and leave it up to nival to come up with the creature concept, unless u guys have preferences (i forsee the names kraken and giant turtles propping up).
ps - I've put ur stats up Gnoll Mage on the Master Post. I would prefer to use Dreaded fog to enhance the quicksand ability the same way excruciating strike is used to enhance the mark of the damned ability.
I would also prefer to using battle stance or adrenaline rush as opposed to serpents bite because then too many units will have access to the poison ability. also its kinda cliche for the naga(aka snake people) to have a poison related ability.

I did in fact forget about having a weak level 7, so the stats for the Leviathan probably need looking at.

For the name of the Leviathan booster building I would suggest something that the lizardmen would have constructed to give these creatures offerings of meat or whatever so that they would leave them alone. Only thing is i can't think of a specific name? Ideas anyone?
War-Overlord, we have to come to an agreement regarding the remaining abilities and with that being said, we still don't have a third racial ability. Suggestions people!
EDIT:
I have a suggestion for the sorcery ability:
Something whereby the Hierophant drains X mana points from enemy hero every turn and uses it to randomly regenerate the shield points of a particular unit.
Either that or randomly blocks one spell in the enemy spellbook for the duration of combat depending on the level of sorcery skill (ie 3 spells blocked at expert, 2 at advanced, 1 at basic)

I just noticed that fortress heroes have primary skills 0,1,2,2.... which is what we put to hierophant... so it needs a change...
Btw... 4 out of 5 points in magic skills for dwarves.... i didnt realise they were to be magic oriented...

Altar of Offerings? Offering Shrine?

I don't like the second one, but the first one might be ok

Altar of offering is awesome. lets stick with that.
Quote: I just noticed that fortress heroes have primary skills 0,1,2,2.... which is what we put to hierophant... so it needs a change...
All we have to do is then change it to 1,0,2,2...
The only two things standing in the way of completion are:
1. Third Racial Skill
2. Ability for Sorcery
And then, and only then, shall the Temple be ready. Unleash the Naga!

I also really like the Altar of Offerings.
And I'm thinking maybe that's what it should be, a bit like the Dungeon Sacrificial Pit?
Say that you need to sacrifice X hp to get one additional Leviathan for the next week (and not like Dungeon, for all coming weeks), an additional 2X ph for a +2 production, and so on, so that for a +Z production of leviathan one will need to offer (1+2+3+...+Z)*X worth of hp. My thought is that X would be somewhere in the vicinity of 150-250 hp, as in one weeks worth of level twos.
Comments on that one please?

I disagree with the sacrificial thing. It would make the naga evil. whereas an offering could be dead animals they caught in the swamps.

n that case maybe offering should be in gold? As in
For how much gold do you wish to buy animals for offering to the leviathan?
where it states how much more gold is needed for an additional lev to come the next week. And then let the amount of gold be about how much it costs to buy a batc of level 2s, as I said earlier.

Instead of gold, how bout resources. Every week theres a certain random amount of resources needed in order to appease the leviathan and boost their growth for that week. how bout that?

That would become annoying if you havn't flagged a bunch of resource generators. I'd just perfer some regular thing. Don't have a good name though...

Hmm... you've got a point dragonbreath... another quandary. Instead of gold lets just stick with resources... keep things simple is always the best.
