No we're not. There are too many groups for too few enemies to group them. If each group had 20 plus enemies in it then maybe, but as "goblins" don't have any unique features that make them different from other enemy groups, any categories would be superflous.

BUT there are enemy groupes with unique and special features. Like the demons and trolls.

Someone will need to take the plunge with a new game on Origins to figure out the unlock point for Twilight Invasion.

Can't we just make a page of "enemy types", separate from anything else, obscurely hidden an unofficial?

I can get some large categories from the top of my head:

Greenskins(Gobs+Orcs)
Insectoids(ANY kind of insect, not just spiders)
Reptoids(Those lizardmen AND dragons)
Specters/Phantoms/Spiritual things(Demons, Angels, Ghosts and Undead)
Humans(Brigands, necromancers, etc.)
Trolls, etc. etc.

We could also narrow everything to Humanoids, Insects, Etherreals and Misc.

Altough this was just a suggestion, I'm not forcing anybody. I just want to make myself feel useful

No. Wiki pages are not supposed to be hidden or so. If there was more lore in the game about the enemies, it might justify the existence of a page(s) about enemy types, but right now I don't see the necessity.
Insectoids(ANY kind of insect, not just spiders)

And, somewhere, an entomologist is crying...

It would be worthwhile to include a page at least for the Elves that talked about the 1,000-year-ago war with the Twilights, and include the cited source from Tats. :)

Tats said that war was in their early documents, I'm not so sure if it's still canonical or not.
As for such a page... they are an above average race, they live in a southern continent and feature prominently in KRO, and in the past they had a war with the Twilight elves... I don't know. I don't think we need any dedicated pages about KR lore yet. There's too little information.

Firstly, I have no idea from where that "and unofficial" popped up. My mind is like The Warp in Warhammer40K and since I'm not usually paying attention to what I'm writing random words tend to pop up.

Secondly, okay. Anything else for me to help around? Spell checking, by any chance?(I'm better at writing correctly than I do on these forums)

Thirdly, I knew spiders were catalogued as Arachnids but not that Arachnids were different from Insects. Maybe I've forgotten that, but I'll pick the former because people like modesty.

Insects have six legs, Arachnids have eight legs. That's the easiest way to tell them apart. Invertebrates have different 'categories' just as Vertebrates are separated into Mammals, Reptiles, Amphibians, Birds, etc.

And spell checking and grammar checking is always wanted. Lots of old pages are dated now and don't get looked at, so ensuring that they read well would be a great help. Also, seeing as Ironhide are based in the Americans, American English is prefered as the spelling, so removing the extra vowels or British English spells would help make things uniform.

My PC underlines non-american writing, so that's no problem.

I don't think that's needed anyway. The more important thing is to add more tips and strategy to hero and enemy pages.

Isn't it already known that they're half-elves?

I dunno. I think I heard or saw it somewhere official. In-game, even.
