And finally some unit ideas:
Humans:
Guard - Siege
Halberdier - Infantry
Archer - Ranged
Priest - Spellcaster
Silver Knight - Flyer (lady knight in silver armor riding a winged Pegasi)
Witch Hunter - Siege with large anti-mages damage bonus
Paladin - Siege
Mystic - Spellcaster
Knight - Infantry
Cavalier - Cavalry
Angel of Light
Angel of Mercy - resurrecting ability
Angel of Judgment - bane ability (The last idea I proposed to a friend of mine that works for Ubisoft for Heroes V and on the heroescommunity forum, they took it, twisted it and gave birth to an Angel with two blades in Heroes 6 which I do not like)
Elves:
Pixie - water attack
Sprite - lightning attack
Nixie - fire attack
Sentry - the good old double shooting Elf
Fire Beetle - cavalry
Spriggan - Infantry
Arcane Archer - advanced Ranged unit with magic arrows like Fire Ball, Ice Gust and Thunder strike
Druid - among other abilities +1 luck to all beasts
Hypogriff - flying deer
Unicorn - cavalry
Sun Pegasus - not-mounted Pegasus
Moon Priestess - Spellcaster
Mantis - flyer
Phoenix
Northern race with dwarves:
Axe Master - ranged
Stone Crusher - Siege hammer dwarf
Winter Wolf - infantry
Frost Troll - two headed troll, which regenerates when shooting with ice balls
Valkyrie - spellcaster
Battle Boar - another Northern mythical unit, Battle Boars are made from metal according to some northern legends
Rune Lord - Siege
Griffon - flyer - I think the griffon suits much more the northern theme, than forests/humans.
Rock/Frost/Storm Giant as champion
Night breed:
Gnome
Hag
Warg
Moon Stalker - werewolf archer
Impaler - werewolf siege
Witcher - werewolf spellcaster
Banshee - if we tweak the myths a little bit, this could be the soul of a evel sorceress that intentionally left her body to gain more control over magic - they are not undead, because their bodies still live somewhere hidden but in a deep sleep state and the spirit wanders around.
Blackguard - black ogre Siege unit
Nightmare - monstrous giant spider unit that was soaked with so much dark magic that it now projects it around - Cavalry with many special abilities.
Witch King - Giant Nazgul like unit - Spellcaster
Gorgon - Medusa like spellcaster
Chimera - changeling unit - can assume the form of a Drake, dark winged lion or a giant black cobra each form with different abilities.
Mind Tyrant - mind overlord unit
Reaver - champion unit of ancient times, could be the main villian of an expansion
Lizards:
Hissing One - cobra man Infantry
Dragon Fly - flying unit
Lizard Sniper - ranged unit with poison dart firing pipe.
Blackscale Assasin - Infantry
Greenscale Hunter - Infantry
Basilisk - cavalry
Yuan Ti - male naga unit

Wyvern - flyer
Hydra that shoots either ice (Cryo Hydra) or fire (Pyro Hydra)
Infernal units:
Imp
Magog - giant fire shooting worm
Cambion - demonic human offspring with wings - like redskinned living gargoyle and a fire sword
Succubus - spellcaster
Cerberus - cavalry
Unitaur - single horned demon
Crucitaur - upgraded horned demon
