These ideas are under consideration, thank you for them! Now, what do you mean by massacre? Massacre is not any type of a name for a structure so I am confused on that as well. Thanks again!

A plagueded catapult get 1 spell "plague", is spell infect a enemy, and enemy as a die. Good idea? :)

I made your skeleton guard picture, please name it "Death's Guard" ingame cause I think the name matches better :).

Death's Guard:

Image

Undeads heavier spearman.

Attack: very efficient vs. riders and machines (catapult, ships), good vs single infantry units
Weaknesses: not so much hp since it's an undead unit, good to beat with archers (give archers a bonus!) or some normal infantry attacks
Movement: one movement-point less than a normal infantry unit. So it's a good unit to defend the own base but hard to transport to the outter front (since it's a guardsman)
Buildable In: Undead Barracks, Towns
Building Time: 4-5 turns
Names/Languages: in German you can call it "Grabwächter"

[Thanks to patdroid for helping me getting into unit graphic making]

Very dark, but that's what a wraith has to be

When the undead walk underwater, for me it is a bit weird to look at. I would prefer if there were maybe, instead of showing the unit, a group of bubbles are shown above the surface maybe.

Pls remove the golden pot on the icon
I dint know what it should be.

Dust n steel you make evrything so detailed
But you forget that it must be recognizable for everybody
So please try to make the images more simple.

Do we have plans to implement the undead "turning into bubbles" when they reach a water tile? It doesn't make sense that skeletons would be wateron the surface of water; granted, it doesn't make sense that they would be emitting bubbles from under water, but, I think bubbles where the undead are underwater (instead of seeing the actual unit) could not only reinforce the scare factor of seeing hordes of undead, but also increase the chance for strategical ambushes.

Mhhh nice idea. You mean that someone can't see the undead that it's underwater but just some bubbles?
We might make it that a flying unit or a scout units can see them and show that on map.

Someone else suggested it, but no-one said anything further Connor, so I enough it up again because I think that is an awesome idea!

The flying units being able to see them makes perfect sense from a tactical/strategical standpoint; we need this now! Lol good idea!

And yes, instead of seeing the undead unit as they are, when they reach a water tile, they are instead shown as a cluster of bubbles (because they're underwater).
