I think treant & green dragon look pretty good. Probably the best part of the lineup. Both dryad and pixie look good, but imo they are too similar concept wise (female forest spirit), even if they'll have different use in combat. I'd prefer to have one or the other, not both. Hunters are ok. Blade dancers are not great, but could've been worse I suppose. Female druids... just no. Deers actually look good, but I wonder how they'll fight. If they just headbutt the enemies it would look silly. If they shoot sunbeams from their horns like magic creatures then ok... Overall I'd rate the lineup as 3/5, not particularly great, but bearable.

Hmm, I see that the Blade Dancer unit is still a subject of a heated discussion. Imo it's not a unit worthy of such attention, and definitely not a material for an elite unit (he's so much core in heart it's not even funny). That reminds me, I know I've seen sth like this before:
Notice it's "fat legs" 
Also, about that deer...

Yes, that was the main reason.

As some of you may know, I did not participate in the beta. Because of that, Ubiosft asked me to fill in some survey regarding the game in genaral. One of the last questions that were asked was: "What I would like to be added in DLCs/expansion packs?" Among some obvious options, like new artifacts, factions, campaigns, etc., there was one that was particularly interesting, meaning "addition of new units to factions." It seems that M&M team starts to embrace the idea of expanded lineups, what gives hope for comeback of such units as Unicorns and Manticores.
PS. No screenshot, sorry. I forgot to take it yesterday.
As such, I don't buy it. The idiocy of inquiring people who did not buy instead of your pre-ordering fanbase coupled with the lack of any supporting evidence makes me question the veracity of this scenario.

Cry not, for 4 different kind of spiders in core and another 3 in elite for necro and 11 different kind of eleves in both Dungeon and Sylvan has been an inevitability ever since the franchise found itself in Lord Erwans capable hands.

My problem is that people instead seeing proportion issues with legs and body make big issue out of nothing.
For me it looks like you people have some traumatic experiences if you see that kind of face.
Well, you see, I have also problem with very big legs compared to the rest of his body and I have even edited the picture to do something about it, here is the result:
I have posted it in the dedicated thread "HC's fanart dedicated thread for MMH7 !!"
oh come on, have you ever worked out?
those original proportions are actually more in line with a realistic 'athletic' look. everyone's so used to disproportioned upper bodies i guess

Some thoughts on how the lineup will function in combat:
Seems like dryads are going to be resurrected by the "tent" unit, so warfare skill will likely be a must have for elves (leaked racial also has +1 ballista shot if I recall correctly). Classes without grandmaster warfare are likely going to be more tricky to play, especially if they don't fix healing spells (in their current state they are better removed altogether).
Creeping would likely rely on hunters + dryads vs melee and dryads only vs ranged. Sprites will be left out most likely.
The lineup was called "Fury" but I actually don't see a lot of charge potential. New dragons are likely to be not very fast, sprites and dancers are most likely glass cannons that will not last long if charging on their own, so it all depends on whether deers are any good. H5 lineup looked better in this regard with its dragons and unicorns. Shooting approach actually seams much more promising, with druids, hunters, treants and ballista shooting at the enemy and dryads tanking. Dancers and sprites seem out of place in this case though.
Feels a bit random overall, looks like academy creatures for instance work better together.
This is all theorycrafting of course, until actual stats and abilities are confirmed.

Well, Pixies explode into a cloud of rainbows, so you can call it Fury...

Can someone make an edit of the Sun Deer where the ball of light between the antlers is shooting out a death beam? That's what I'm banking on.

That would be cool indeed. In that case we have 5 units as potential shooters, just imagine that (dryad, archer, druid, deer, treant)
+ maybe pix is a spellcaster
