Silverguard Legion - Human Army / Unit Roaster / Tech tree

After the three Elven faction, next on my list are the three Human factions - Silverguard, Ebonguard, and the Northern Kingdoms

And after that... Well I should better start working on the campaign so I could create an actual thread instead of just posting pictures in the media section

Now this is the type of faction I'd downright play non-stop

A few ideas for the names, if you don't mind:

Heaven Knight:
- Sky Avenger
- Sky Crusader
- Winged Avenger
- Gryphon Knight

White Knight (lol):
- Silver Champion
- Argent Crusader
- Winged Avenger

Argent Knight:
- Argent Templar (sounds like a cooler rank and linked to the Silver Guard)

Argent Priestess:
- Argent Matriarch
- Argent Prophetess

Inquisitor:
- Argentum Inquisitorum
- Argentum Purgatus (sounds more like a spell though)
- Argentum Vindicatorum

@ZethHolyblade I'm glad to hear that!
The purpose of having so many races/factions is to fulfil more player fantasy, so everyone could find their thing. Also, gameplay diversity is always a plus

Sure! I'm always open to any kind of suggestions (As long as they make sense)

The word "heaven" was already used for a couple of abilities, so I decided it would be ok to use that word for a unit. But I do like "Gryphon Knight", it puts him above all other gryphon Riders of the other races

The name mimics the "Black Knight" hero from the other faction, Ebonguard. Both of these factions, as well as their leaders, are closely related to each other and were serving the same crown in the past, so it makes sense for them to mirror each other every now and then
However, Champion sounds much better and it describes the hero perfectly

"Argent Knight" was inspired by a medieval military system, where every king had his own dukes, every duke had their own knights, and every knight had their own company of men who formed the entirety of the king's army. Argent Knights fulfil a similar role here, both gameplay- and lore-wise. They are also supposed to have Hero Glow, but I forgot to add it for this picture

Argent Priestess was initially called "High Priestess", but I changed it to match the theme and hierarchy of the faction

As for the Inquisitor, those are too complicated. I like to keep things simple when I can

Cleric and Holy Warrior are too much alike.

@xISLx that reminds me.

Will you be adding a sort of rival or hatred system like some games do? (HoMM 2 and 3 for example)

X and Y deal increased damage to each other.

@deepstrasz The undead have a similar issue with Lich and Archlich
Oh well, I still think both of these models fit in their roles. Heroes will also be more distinguishable from non-heroic units in game, so confusion is not an issue here

@ZethHolyblade I've actually never thought about it
There are some passive abilities which counter each other, like Armored and Armor Breaker, Cavalry and Spearwielder/Halberdier/Horse Feller, or Beasts and Beast Slayers, etc

However, there's no such thing as "Mutual Hatred" yet
I think it can't do more harm than good, so it's safe to add it... But what would be the purpose of it?

@xISLx Well just for the sake of watching diametrically opposing units beating the ever loving something to each other in epic fashion

Then again, this might not translate that very well on large armies so you could just reserve it to specific heroes or the titan / mythic units.

BTW you've yet to play the 'betrayal' guessing game on the last pic I posted

@ZethHolyblade the model I mean...

@ZethHolyblade Yeah, I need to do a lot of things actually
The last few days have been extra busy

if they are more religion oriented faction, you could make some angel like units as top tier
