The Daemon artwork is awesome. The Edar also looks cool, but I see an opportunity. The wingless wing-structure. A common trope used to make bad things look extra-cool, they don't actually make sense (except on reanimated formerly winged things). Buuut... what if they were actual attack / movement limbs? Like spider legs, or Kerrigans extras in Starcraft? If nothing else, that would let you create some sick running animati
Try Kings Bounty: The Legend or the very similar but newer Kings Bounty: Armored Princess (personally I got both of them from Impulse - super convenient). They're both great; I prefer the first (KB: The Legend) because I preferred it's alternate magic mechanic (box of rage vs pet baby uber-dragon).

That's the problem I've always had with 'below ground' levels - they add additional grind without real meaning, and make me immediately want to stop playing - especially as they usually pile on an additional movement penalty.

That's roughly equivalent to saying food is just chemicals. True, but not helpful. If you watch what the posters are saying, they're not saying that we shouldn't be presented with meaningful numerical information to make decisions with, but instead that discoveries, unit abilities, special events et. al
