This is a *great* idea.
Now, I'd need to research for details, but just a few ideas:
Innsmouth with cultists and fishmen. (R'lyeh, imprint minds)
Shaolin with disciples and monks. (EA Tien Chi)
Village defended by seven samurai. (MA Bakemono)
Cimmeria, land of barbarians, with Conan as one of them. (EA Ulm)
Kirke's island from Odyssey, sorceress and a horde of beasts and foulspawn. (Transformation, as a spell, exists so boars/iron boars are fine)
Holy sanctuary with clerics, flagellants and paladins. (Marignon)
Transylvania with a vampire count leading an army of infartry, peasants, villans and wolves.(LA Ulm)
Highlands with banshee's and barbarian swordsmen. (Banshee: LA Ermor summon Wailing Lady, EA Ulm/indep barbarians)
For underwater:
Land of the drowned - full of undead.
Sunken city - mechanical men, golems and other animates. (the animated things are called inanimates in Dominions  )
Lair of the kraken - pretender-sized octopus with items (there is an octopus pretender)

All are good ideas, but need some fleshing out. R'lyeh is a sunken city, but I guess another would be fine if you don't find an alternative name. I mentioned good sources of fitting units in () symbols in the quoted part. Also, Circe is a Sauromatian hero who also affected LA Arcos Sibyls IIRC.

This is just a silly idea...
Magic site: Xavier's School, enables recruitment of mutant with 100% AFWES random, 20-50% FWSN random
Xavier: S3, movement 1/2
Cyclops: high precision, ranged attack with the Solar rays animation or a better suited animation
Angel: Flying, high att+def, maybe some gear aswell
Beast: Bandar sprite, high Str, high MR, high movement
Iceman: Ice Elemental sprite, W2
Storm: A4, Flying
Jean: F3S2
Rogue: D2, Life Drain
Wolverine: E2, high Regen, 2x AN or AP Claw attack, maybe immortal
Nightcrawler: demon sprite, intrinsic Boots of the Crane or otherwise automatic Blink in battle
Maybe half of them in the outside, half of them in the inside. Maybe +1 Astral to Xavier and Jean, maybe -1 Air to Storm (though she should be able to cast Storm?). Prevent them from getting charmed, somehow. Make them SCs / Thugs.

Idea is good, but new units would need to be done as mods. Many heroes can be done with a combination of items and suitable unit types. Examples: Cyclops - Rod of the Phoenix. (Arch)Angel - Stymphalian Wings. Wolverine - maybe Troll with ring of regen, hydra skin armor, lycanthropos amulet and two Duskdaggers (curses everyone touched, AN) - something with both regeneration and rejuvenation would be best. Jean - Phoenix Pyre the spell would be very good, but we can't force her to cast that. Nightcrawler - Fiend of Darkness, chainmail of deception for glamour. Iceman - maybe a Caelian temple guard with Rime Hauberk. Storm - Staff of Storms.

Both are very rare and VERY powerful sites. Would these be in addition to the existing units? Even so, I'd say they need to be a bit more powerful. Your call, though.
Except something late Friday or Saturday. And please keep the ideas coming, and flesh out the existing ones.
