But so what really? Even an elephant or mammoth with nearly a hundred hitpoints will die when it gets surrounded by troops.

As far as Moloch/Prince of Death goes, yes, perhaps I exaggerated a tiny bit, but nevertheless. Size 5 flying trampler (if so equipped) is a bit overboard.

It's a pretender, it's supposed to be powerful.

Lobsters shouldn't even be able to trample...I can't imagine something as slow as a lobster (and a very, very large lobster at that) trampling anything. Plus, doesn't that give Atlantis a bit of an unfair advantage over R'lyeh?

It's a lobster that's the same size as an elephant. I can't imagine it not trampling anything it came across. Lobsters are not slow either, they move very quickly when they want to, and especially backwards. Atlantis does have a bit of an early game advantage thanks to war lobsters, but it's not a game-breaking one thanks to the paralysis of the Illithid's.
