I'll make a sprite if a good idea .

I like this. It would also be appropriate to have it's associated upgrades as well.

To Elite Norse Archer...

Also, maybe it would be a good idea to have minor variation to the stats to reflect it's Nordic nature... And because it is versitile, I think that having cost 3 would be the BARE MINIMUM to go by, I feel people would be more accepting if cost 4.

And maybe to keep bonuses similar, we can actually make the stats something like this...

Yeah, that'd be a great addition to the nords.
Fire archer/Broad swordsman hybrid

This could be a weaker persian immortal but with fire enchantment.

Sounds cool, he just lacks armor

Sorry for the lack of response... Did up a sprite for this.

Hope it's adequate.

he looks nice

He can use a secondary weapon?in ability,to swap hes bow to a two handed axe?

Yep. Correction : 1 handed axe

looks good
