I've proposed the merlock leader in another topic and I'd like to discuss your suggestion for other units
I'd like to add a ranged unit but what i'm coming up to are 2 main ideas:
1) a trident thrower (that would end up being like the current unit so I should draw another image to make it melee)
2) a water spitter (similar to the archer fish that spit water to hunt for its preys)
Also I was thinking the race by adding a unit inspired by the goblin fish (you can search for images on google) that would be the merlock counterpart for goblins. One goblinfish unit might be a slave.
Aside from that I'd like a merlock using hooks and chains to slow down ships from a small distance (like if he was boarding them) and, maybe, convert them.
Let me know If you have ideas to expand the orcish "fleet".
