Makura Lobsters Campaign

[PsychoMagnataur]

I'm considering creating my first campaign, where you would have mostly Lobsters as well as other Sunken Ruins units. Obviosly modified units to have a techtree, upgrades, abilities, etc.
I've already created a "demo" map, with about 75% of the units but it has some errors. Before I go ahead and create 10 levels i want to know if its worth the time and effort.

Well, a lobster-based campaign seems a little limited. Some amount of variety and interesting differences create some of the dynamic that makes a campaign interesting.

However, if you keep that in mind and build a campaign that has innovative techniques to keep your armies interesting, I wouldn't hold it against you.

Heres what i've got so far (Instead of Makura I've called them Lobstrokk, based on the unit sound set and it sounded cooler)

Tidal Lord (Hero) - Purple Makura (tinted so he looks reddish)
Lobstrosity (Fighter) - Red Makura
Lobstrokk Hunter (Ranged) - Green Makura
Lobstrokk Contraption (Siege) - Orc Catapult (Reign of Chaos Style)
Hermit Shaman (Spellcaster) - Hermit Crab (enlarged of course)
Oktonokk (Spellcaster) - Dalaran Reject (supposed to look like octopus)
Worker Crab (Worker) - Crab (size increased slightly)

I'm thinking either a Sea Giant of large Spider Crab for a heavy melee. The Hermit Shaman's attack is Siege, not magic, for en extra siege attack. I cant think of a flyer but might use Couatl or Dragon.

Any Suggestions are appreciated!

Use Hydra somehow, thats model owns

 

[PsychoMagnataur]

hmmm hydra?
larger power spellcaster, heavy ranged/siege, or secondary hero
could even replace catapult and hurl acid globs huge distances

 

[imported_Blademaster]

Probably be best as siege, or do you really want a catapult?

 

[PsychoMagnataur]

yeah, catapult doen't fit in the theme too well. an amphibious siege weapon would be very nice.

Heres what ive got for enemies
Pirates :
Pirate King (Hero) - Admiral Proudmoore
Marauder (Melee) - Bandit
Assassin (Ranged) - Brigand
Catapult (Siege) - Catapult
Captain (Heavy melee) - Bandit Lord
Frigate (Sea Ranged) - Undead Frigate
War Vessel (Sea Siege) - Undead Battleship

Any Suggestions here (names are helpful too, these aren't very creative)?

An enemy caster is need, maybe apprentice wizard, or dark wizard

 

[PsychoMagnataur]

Enemy spellcaster, hmmm. Should sound pirate-like. Spells would be like Water attacks or Undead stuff or Curses. Name...? Hmm, tell me if you can get a good name for it.
Otherwise I only need air units for you and enemy. Heres some ideas i've got:
Lobsters -
Couatl, Dragon, Fairie Dragon, Chimaera
Pirates -
Sky Barge or Zepplin w/ attack, Gryphon Rider

There aren't may options for flyers, escpecially Neutral Hostile.
