From what we've been told Necropolis seems to be the only exception though and they didn't hide it,which is in my opinion a good thing,at least they are honest about it.
[sarcasm on]
You mean if they hide it, we wouldn't notice? 
[sarcasm off]
They sure did an honorful thing, but even if they didn't, the result would have been the same. As somebody here said: damned of they do, damned if they don't.

Then again, they might improve things with Stronghold. Since we are supposed to get desert orcs, which probably means new models and a new unit or two.

Overall I think it isn't that surprising that they reuse a bit of H6,I mean H6 had really a messy and small run,having only one expansion and being full of bugs.

Half of Dungeon is repeated from H6, so we'll see about that, surely that faction is still work in progress in design though.
Oh and can I remind everyone how in a recent poll, the majority voted to repeat the H5-6 inspired Dungeon townscreen instead of something new? Same for Sylvan. Of course "more of the same" only matters when you personally like it, right?

A terrible analogy. More like:
"We have honey glazed, boston cream, powdered strawberry..."
"I hate powdered strawberry!"
"Then don't eat that one." 
ok, replaced the crap with a stale moldy doughnut to represent the old models

The strange thing is that the two new Necro creatures are abysmal as well.

Yeah, I can't wait for awesome Desert Cyclops and Sand Goblins, with same models but they have additional animations and sand all over them. And if we are lucky, they will be recolored.

I can't believe this. The one faction I had hoped them not to ruin, and they ruined it. How did they design Haven and Academy creatures so well but then give us this Necropolis.. COME ON! So many stupid decisions.......... At least I like the Reaper model.

Grim Reapers? Love them. It's basically a Wraith and Dread Knight in one. Somehow I have to think about the Headless Horseman's lines from WoW when he shows up.
"Prepare yourselves, the bells have tolled.
Shelter your weak, your young and your old.
Each of you shall pay the final sum.
Cry for mercy, the reckoning has come!"
About Lamasus, Liches, and Vampires. Very similar to H6, and even though I don't mind seeing them return, I didn't expect them to be this close to their 'original' counterparts. Some innovations wouldn't hurt. Which brings me to another topic. Liches in H5 are skeletal. What made the H6/H7 liches change from what they look like there, to what we see in H5? Where did those spiders go? And the Lamasus?
Continuity. Creatures are fine, but continuity...
Any thoughts on the matter?

Some of H5 stuff is considered non canon, mainly because there were blatant copies of Warhammer.

You know what I find amusing? When I was cooking up my "Celestial Universe" concept, one of the few units I actually cooked up was virtually identical to the Grim Rider presented here, just with a sword instead of a scythe.
No wonder it appeals to me so much.

The elites are a bad, very bad joke, aren't they? Already after the "reveal" of skeleton and banshee I had a strange feeling, but now I feel disgusted and betrayed... and where is Fate Spinner? If they wanted to safe money and copy-paste H6 line-up, why did they leave out the only cool unit? :-/

I've noticed some of the developers are here so...
I have a question:
Can we also reuse our money we've spent on H6 to pay for H7?
