I can only speak to the first island, and those fights are between vikings, animals, undead, spiders and snakes. Most groups had slight to moderate variations in composition. The story makes an effort to include each of these types in the narrative, so it's possible we'll see more enemy variety when story opens up later.
As for your team, I had 8 or 9 non-viking units available - more if you count variations from opening eggs and reloading. There is also an early quest to unlock a supply of higher-level viking units to spice up your army (you can pick a maiden, jarl, or soothsayer), plus there's the new Mystic to try. Reading its abilities hints at letting us finally recruit undead later on (it has tolerance) so cross your fingers.
Edit - woot, The first ghost ship has undead in it! Yay! It's not enough to field an army, but it's a start. I had 13 pirate ghosts and 40 undead spiders for sale.
With all of that together I had a good time on the first island and my finishing army was nothing like the one i started with. So is it crazy different? No? Was it fun? It was for me.
