A monstrous dog-like creatures that can see stealth units. It has a very fast speed and a very wide sight. It has a low attack and cheap. It's ideal to ambush weak units too when in numbers.

But why for the undead race?

I think it is the best race for this unit since it also includes demonic/infernal subraces

I would agree,but faction that needs stealth seeing are orcs,it will quite fit there thought.

It might fit orcs too but we might propose something different for them

Orcs and Elves don't have invisible units,I am saying it should be for elf race,because it is also like wolf,moreover,Undead race properties don't match this.For invisibility they already have something.I don't remember the name,but it is invisible.

But this unit isn't invisible,it only see invisible units.
It doesn't change fact that undead invisible unit,shade,can see stealth,and orcs have only troll shaman,with is too expensive to hold it near to great buildings.

That was my mistake.But in last post,I was talking what will it see,except assasins,we don't have invisible units for orcs and elves.
Anyways,I guess stats could be:
Cost:2
Attack:5
Speed:5
Action/Turn:1/1
Armour:2
P. Armour:2
Rang:1
Spell Resistance:50%

The Human should have a hunting dog too instead of a scout dog. It would be great in early games wherever one has weak units.

When I read this, it reminds me of the skinned hounds from elder scrolls: oblivion
Definitely undead. However, I feel like they would be better as a sort of summon, like the elf wolves.

Well sorry to say this,but the stats then must be enough to satisfy players,and not like the elf wolves

That is pretty good steel, maybe some hints of w=bone or rotting flesh? But otherwise it is pretty good

Well I think it's great idea and we should revive it

I think its suitable to have them for undeads or elf ,but as of dogs,they are a man's best friend XD,so they suit for human race
Also,I think this unit needs to have something different from elf wolves

if this is scout than it doesn't need any bonuses. can have instead cost 1 and sight 7.

Humans already have a scout dog.

Shouldn't it be a bone dog?
He also said it was suitable for for either one.
Maybe the undead should have something called Dread Hound.

Attack could be 4 or 5 in that regard with low hp
Brave:Bloodhounds (in fantasy world)are supposed to be undead pet,which were used to raid humans,as said in Fantapedia

I liked the idea, also it could be easily to make upgrades for it... Can start as - Undead Hound (or Just Hound)> Blood Hound> Hell Hound.

Would've like to save the hell hound name for demons that's still up for discussion.

Nah, would kill the whole evolution breed for these doggos, and for demons, they can have Coeurls instead. In any case, while that does not go foward, demons are still a subfaction of the undeads.
