Summonable Creatures
I Think some heroes and creatures must be able to call/Summon some other creatures.
Like the Magi can summon a Light elemental.
or a Bee Queen a bee warrior and stuff.
Toughts?

Yes but
The creatures (not the heroes) Must have some kind of spells.
Like the Mage or Lich or something.
Not only that heroes.

Don't think so
I don't know....the creatures these creatures summon should be lvl 1 creatures or somethign not too good. They also should have a limit to how many times they can do this. All in all, I don't really like the idea.

Why????
They never put an Light Elemental in it whitout being summoned!
They can do it so:
The Mage/Magi Could Summon The same nr of light elementals as himself.
he can only do this 1 time.
And the light elementals aren't that strong so it isn't unfair!
I WANT LIGHT ELEMENTALS!

There are too many elementals already, I dont want more of them. Personally, I dont like the idea, spellcasting creatures would be ok (like some in heroes3), like each of them (no all, just the ones that has to do with magic) has a speciality like ogres did and they can cast it during combat, but this exists and surely will exist in heroes4, thats nothing new by the way  ...

I don't know, I do sorta want to see some more elementals, but I also agree with everyone else. I'm not quite sure, but maybe there would be some other way???

Elemantals sucks...
But I think it would be great if magi's could sommon creatures...The better the hero is to use magic the better the creature...Or if a hero have Magi's as unique the Magi should could sommon creatures...
Another thing is that, the heroes should could upgrade creatures, like the sharpshooters...

I agree with Incubus. The Magi should be able to summon light elemantals, because they may be some of the wizards of Bracada, who in the MM games use light magic, witch is used to summon light elementals.

Why Elementals Suck?
They make Homm to what it is!
But i don't like humans because there are alot of games with only Crusadars in it.
All those games suck.
And i think if i want to see humans in a game i buy Red Alert.
But Crusadars must be in every fantasy game ;0(
In heroes and even in warcraft.
I just don't like them.
They don''t have mana en magic.

to each creature, his own
the magi dont really have any special ability besides haveing no range penilty and reduceing spell cost, while this idea isnt the greatest it sounds kewl. altho i think magi should cast a spell one time, not summon something.

I disagree about the elements makign HoMM what it is now. What abotu all the harpies and minotarus. That is what makes this game what it is. Not just a single creature or type can make a game what it is. And I doubt that a minotaur is a human in any aspect.

Elementals would be more accepted if they weren't all humanoid... if they did 'em like the MoM elementals, it would be better IMHO. Summonable creatures would be cool though, we might even be able to get the old Inferno creatures that way (and angels too). If each magic style could summon around 3 creatures (not including elemental) it would add an interesting new aspect to the game.

YES!!!!
Like the Demon Hunter could Summon Demons.
And the Pit lord Summon imps?
Other summonings are:
Wererat summmons Giant Rat
Mage summons Light Elemental
Hero Summons Fire/Water/Earth/Wind/Magma/Energie/Magi elementals
Vampire summons giant Bat
Anubis Summons Scarab
Necromancer summons Skeleton/Archer Zombie and Ghouls, And even summons bone dragons from death dragons.
Bone Dragons must be weak then.
And only have a level of 4.

I like this idea of summoning creatures. It fits well with my "Stranger" idea. Give the stranger a customized spell which can summon a random type of creature ( which is already in the game).
And to add a few new ideas:
Powerful tree-like creatures (Dendroids/Waspworts/Treants) should be able summon Vines to tie creatures down.
If we have Dryads they should be able to summon forest creatures.
Medusae could be able to summon snakes.
And so on...
Also to expand this summoning thing, we don't always need to have a spell. A musical instrument to do the Summoning is an idea. A Minotaur's Horn to summon Minotaurs, a Satyr's Pipe to summon Sprites etcetera.
And when we come to summoning... Why not have the ultimate Summoning of all. The ability to Summon an opponent's hero to single-combat (hero vs hero). Mind you to make this at least somewhat balanced it would probably be needed to:
1. Let the challenged opponent pick the hero to use.
2. Let the challenged hero decide the rules for the single combat. (For instance in relation to allowing the use of magic during the duel.)
3. Limit the number of summons to 1 per week.
Some thought must also be given as to what reward the victor shall have in such a challenge.

Summoable Creatures
I personally like the idea of summonable creatures;it will make the game cooler and give a difference among the creatures and their special abilities.
