New Monster/Race Suggestions
If there's some Monsters you would like to see in the mod post them here. Keep in mind that I don't intend to add flying ones.

I'd like to see Dire wolves and Giant spiders.

Will probably add Giant Spiders. I'm really torn about Dire Wolves, I get that they are not the same as Wargs but in the end you could just use them.

Dragons!

As explained in the mod description, I will not add flying monsters in the near future. Wyrms will be in the next update though.
There's a Mesopotamian dragon depicted without wings known as Mušḫuššu. I don't know what visual you could use for it. There's probably dnd monsters that fit the look. And Cyclopes could be a great addition. Maybe make them a siege unit.

Cyclopes, Ogres or Trolls could fit in nicely. Oliphants might not fit in quite as well, but they would be cool, too.

Really cool mod btw.

Ogres and trolls were added in the new update ^^
I think some mythological units like satyrs, minotaurs and cyclops will be added for byzantium at some point

This mod is seriously cool, lemmie crack open the monster manual. Though not a actual monster, i think the concept of War Mammoths would be for more northern cultures. The concept of War Hydra's from Warhammer is cool. Naga's are neat. Frost Salamanders. Yeti's would be real cool too.Not saying you should add em all, just some neat ideas

Thank you!
Haha yeah when I was looking for inspiration I went though the MM too. The thing about Nagas is that I don't know anything about them, and they seem more of a humanoid race than monsters. Don't have that many ideas yet except for Rakshasas. But then again, that would make them a good candidate for India at some point. I like mammoths, but at the same time they don't feel fantasy enough to me. I've looked at Hydras, but I feel like I can't do them justice aside from giving them a ton of toughness.
Yeti and Frost Salamander or maybe even Frost Wyrm may be interesting.
But I won't add too many MaA for some time, got recruited into a dev team for an upcoming fantasy conversion mod.

I don't know if you've checked out the mod, but there is an undead "faction". I won't be able to make every single unit someone thinks of, that would just be a ton on reskins, you gotta use your fantasy a little bit. There is also Treants and an Elf faction with a Woodelf subfaction if you want better archers.
As for the rest, most of them are on the to-do list once I get to it.

For the previous suggestion of liches, i would think of them more similar to a monster unit. Small in numbers but powerful due to their magic.

My suggestions for races. You can decide what units would fit being added:

Dark Elves (Expensive, but powerful units)
Dragonborn/Half Dragon
Demons
Warforged
Charr

Any chance at a fantasy human race or no?

Well, as for Dark Elves, I'm not sure I will be adding more than one special unit for "subraces". Woodelves got a better archer, I don't have a good idead for Dark Elves yet. I understand that some people would like it, but there would only be minor differences betwenn stats and I think that's not really worth it.
Elven units are currently stronger but fewer in numbers. I'm thinking about ways to distinguish races even more, but that will probably still take some time.
I have Uni, Christmas time and am part of the Godherja team, and I'm decently happy with the mod. So for now updates are slowed down (Sorry!).

As for fantasy human race, what would you have in mind? When I have added enough MaA to fill out most cultures they probably will only be available to a few nations, but I don't know what I'd add to them. I kinda like the idea of them having the vanilla units since I balanced the new units around them. But if you have some cool ideas I'll definitely listen.

Could you add human crusaders as a men at arms?
