Well, except Hidden in Snow gives you better warriors in turmoil.

_better_ warriors, or more warriors ?

My opinion:

Both unrozen and Dust Walkers are size2 giants. Dust Walkers have 25-25 hp, 9 prot, 12 att 16 def (warrior). All have shields and heat, but no cold resistance. Simply put, they're tough. The priest has very varied randoms - Aside from HH, I've seen death, fire, earth and astral. Unfortunately Kopesh is not a magical weapon. Overall, Hidden in Sand are nice, but I think overpriced. Their stats are great all across the board, but it's hard to say how cost-effective they really are.

I think Hidden in Snow < Hidden in Sand. First, warriors and even regulars have shields and high Def. Second, fiery undead are a bit unusual. Third - even more weird - you get fiery undead for earth gems ! WTF ? Talk about unexpected. Sand gets you a priest, too. The only advantage of Unfrozen I can think of are those weird, lenth 4 magical flint swords.

Hidden in Snow cast in high Turmoil gives you more Unfrozen with Flint Swords, less Unfrozen with spears. The total amount is probably constant, similar to what Saulot got when he tested Hidden In Sand.
