Balor Too Small?

[COMark]

Overall, I'm happy that the general size of units seems to have been increased since AoW3. The Horned God is MASSIVE and looks way better than the predecessor.

However...I honestly think the Balor, the tier 5 unit for Chaos affinity, is far too small. I like that he's kinda chunky with his proportions, just should be double the size. The tier 4 unit, Chaos Eater(?), is even bigger than he!

What does everyone else think?

The unit size does not represent their actual size. You can’t accurately portray regular humanoids next to giant monsters.

Of course, I'm not comparing the Balor to regular troop size (like archers or swordsman). All unit sizes are clearly an abstraction. But unit size CAN dictate general strength, effectiveness, scale, and danger...the Balor's size feels off in comparison to some of the other high tiered units.

If that is indeed the Balor's intended size, then I feel more needs to be done to make the unit stand out. Your comparison to humanoids also shows why instead of a single troop, the unit is comprised of many - helping to render some sense of scale and competency of the unit.

Hell even the Living Fog, a t4 shadow reskin of the Balor, has more character and stands out better.

Half the units have this "Chibi" style, unfortunately

Yea, he's a funny looking, chunky boi.
I wish Balors here lookd more like the ones in Pathfinder/DnD.

I think it human:monster size ratio is proportionate to the lotr movie balor

The legs are way too small, the head too big, looks like a doll for children under the age of 5
