Creatures you Can't Stand Losing for each Castle

y0,whts up every1.. most players i kno hav certain creatures that they can't stand to lose. here is my list of these for each castle and a brief description of why loosing them sucks so much. there are many reasons as to why you might hate losing a particular unit, such as they are your personal favorite or because of the huge investment you put into them, etc.

dungeon--scorpicores. my fav creature in game. i even have this funny thing that goes thru my mind when i lose one.. i hate losing them so much that if i have an odd number of them i always consider dismissing one to make the stack even. having an odd number in a stack just reminds me i lost one and pisses me off.. note: i have never actually been stupid enough to dismiss one to make stack even, however i have had the thought pass thru my head many times! note: i also hate loosing black dragons, especially because you can't use ressurection on them.

tower--titans. with that price you pay for them it hang make you pull your hair out if you lose one.

inferno--efreeti. they are an awesome unit and it is frustrating to lose them.

fortress--wyverns. i just think the monarchs are cool although they are not the best. i try to keep them healthy.

stronghold--thunderbirds. i really hate losing a mere thunderbird. i usually wait with them and rarely send them straight into the heat of battle. low defense hurts them although their health is sick. wolf raiders are frustrating to loose too particularly because they die so fast yet have such a great potential to deal sick damage.

conflux--nothing in particular stands out to me..

rampart--i hate rampart and would be glad to have them all die. any1 who likes them probably hates loosing grand elves tho. it must be particularly annoying the way spells and the arrow tower shooters often decimate them.

necropolis--power liches.. black knights too but since they tend to die much less than power liches i would say power liches are more annoying to lose.

castle--not a fan of castle, but i dont hate it like rampart. obviously loosing angels is incredibly annoying, but i find it particularly annoying when marksman die. they often take a beating from arrow towers too.

thats all for now.. hope u enjoyed my list,i look forward to seeing what other ppls list look like...peace

Castle: Marksmen, Angels
Rampart: Elves
Tower: any ranged attackers
Inferno: Efreets
Necropolis: Vampires, Bone Dragons
Dungeon: Manticores, Dragons
Stronghold: Orcs, Thunderbirds,Cyclops, Behemoths
Fortress: Flies, Wyverns

I agree about many of the creatures brought up; Titans and Dragons being too expensive to throw away liberally and the Marksmen getting chewed hard by the arrow towers. Several of the fliers take massive damage, most notably the Flies for Fortress, Griffins for Castle, and Pegasi for Rampart. I've had it up to *here* with the fragility of the latter creature because it's level 4, but the others I have more understanding for. The Stronghold's Level 1 & 2 creatures suffer from a huge lack of Defense and Health Points, making them die in droves. Which is the same thing that happens to Master Gremlins; stronger units like Skeletons and Centaurs are a lot better at holding together but it still hurts to lose a big chunk of them. Losing Efreets is also unfortunate; they are very useful in most situations, especially before you get Devils. Vampire Lords can regain life and numbers, but they have until the end of combat to do so; if combat ends early, you're stuck with the loss.

IF there is something I CAN stand losing, it must be ZOMBIES or PEASANTS...
Itīs never funny to lose stack, whatever creature it consists of.
