I think that those units might be the elven "attack ships"

Mermen could be some sort of water fighters with specific bonuses while the sirens could use their voices to damage ships

How about a merman that can call thunderstorm with his trident?

They are just like the mirethingamajig of the orcs.

ok

those are not similar to race but i think it's cool idea!

Considering that elves have also fairies and dryads and sirens are very tie to nature i thought that they might fit together well. They would work in similar way than merlocks but, as other elves, they would have lower combat stats that grows influenced by techs. Unlike the merlocks they can't walk out of water (unless e make an ability that allow them to shift into a form with legs).

My idea is tht the merman is the water counterpart of the elf swordman with the same merlock bonus against ships and docks. The siren should be weak in combat but they should have one or more ability that affect ships like charm (curse for ships only) and Lullaby (slow for ship only with a higher effect)

ok. thanks

I think a mermen subrace would be very cool and useful, especially with the recent addition of the orc merlocks

Do you like this?

What is the difference between daydream and charm abilities?

Sorry i mistyped. Charm should be like fear, reducing a unit attack.

implemented, right?

No. The siren is not yet in

Could you use those stats under the name and image for a siren, and have mermaid more as follows:

Mermaid (sea witch for a possible upgrade name)
Cost 6
Hp 15
Armor 0
Pierce armor 0
Power 5
Speed 3
Spell resistance 70%
Spells: arcane bolt, lighting storm, lifelink, lightning weapon

Offensive magical unit, similar to mage and war mage, But water based.

You mean a different unit? This is pretty different for the siren/mermaid

Yes. Different units. The old could be best called "siren" anyway.

Bumped, whats wrong with the siren again?

Alex wants to change her abilities into something more intresting. No spoilers though because is still discussing.
