Default Most Beloved Individual Units?

I'd like to hear which units you guys think are the most fun. Not necessarily the strongest, just the ones you enjoy!

I'll go first:

I love the 2nd Tier Illuminated Ones! Because of their piddling magics? Nope. Their ability to lead ghoul guardians? Nope. I love them for their astounding stealth and extremely high ability to cause dissent.

I don't know if this has been discussed before, but it seems different units with the Incite Revolt (or whatever) ability do it at different levels of proficiency. These fellows are great at what they do, and their big brother, the Third Tier hero is INCREDIBLE! The enemy will be so busy waiting for the Vampire Count hordes to pounce, he won't realize he's being devoured from within!

Runner-Up of the moment either goes to:

The not-so-humble High Inquisitor, who between preaching, immolating, and leading troops can do it all for a baragain price

or the Disease-infested hero of Tien Chi, who even now is forcing the evacuation of my entire home defense! When I try to move HIM out he just dies and comes back, endangering us all! Irritating though that is, he's great for a laugh.

I'd love to hear about your favorite units and why.


Mark

For me its Pangaea's Pans and Pandemoniacs when they are turned into assassins. They both have unique skills as assassins. The Pan for finding maenads every round which test the province to see if that Last kill was also the Last commander (everyone routs and the province is mine), and the Pandemoniacs for casting HellBind which instead of killing the enemy commander it converts him to our side (again a combat follows and if he was the Last commander, we win)

Maenads and Succubi, led by a Great Mother. Now if I could persuade these independent amazons to take their clothes off, too...

Other than that the Eater of the Dead makes a really cool pet.

I do not think the eater of the dead gets the attention it deserves. Try throwing him a few extra bones and see how long he will remain your lapdog.
