Portraits

Giants and titans are level 7 creatures of Tower town. They are recruited from the Cloud Temple. Both creatures are immune to mind spells. Titans hate black dragons, which cases them to "burn with anger" and cause +50% more damage when attacking black dragons. Additionally, they are the only 7th level creature with ranged attack, and they suffer no melee penalty.
Discussion
The ability to "burn with anger" and do extra damage to black dragons is likely a reference to 3DO's previous title Heroes of Might and Magic II. In that game, the Wizard and Warlock were widely considered to be the strongest heroes and there was some debate among players as to the single strongest 6th level creature.
Combat tips: Giants are very unimpressive 7th level creatures, and may not be worth the gold until your Cloud Temple sees an upgrade. Titans, on the other hand, stand strong as one of the most powerful creatures in the game. If your hero happens to be an expert in earth magic with slow you will be able to dismantle a majority of neutral creatures (with the help of mages)) before they can land a blow. Additionally - with their mind spell immunity, Titans will not fall prey to the forgetfulness spell. Keep them out of melee combat, and your titans should lead you to victory in a wide range of combat matchups.
Giants have an AI Value of 3718, while Titans have an AI Value of 7500.
