All Female Race
I think it would be cool to have an all female race in HOMM6. Meaning that all heroes and creatures for that race would be female (and scantily clad  ). Something like an Amazonian race.

That's a no-go buddy, even if all the creatures are male (and I don't think there's one town where they are, if you include the fact that some beasts/lesser races are likely to be female), some of the heroes are going to be male, and all-female town, like an all-male one doesn't work (unless they're Lizardmen base on the Desert Grassland Whiptail Lizard).

Some of the towns are all-male:
Academy - Gremlins? Djinns? Rakshasa?
Fortress - Maybe Fire Dragon is female?
Necropolis -

What an ingenious propsal, how no one could came up with this? Just dress them in mini skirts and we can go. 
However, I guess that's not how the factions are developed.

But that's not because they were meant so. If that's a real issue for you, make a mod to add some breats to the rakshasas and wraiths 
This is only a game. Computer game. Strategy game. Fantasy game. No sex, no sexism, no omnipotent conspiracy.

I agree. We need a faction for massive sex appeal. Then they can stick them on the front cover of the H6 box to shoot up the sales.
I did a Valkyrie faction in this thread, 3rd post from the top. It's all chicks except for the 1st tier, which are some extremely lucky and happy halfling males. And the only reason I stuck those dudes in was to fit with the pictures we had to base the faction around.

I'm assuming some of the Gremlins are female, Djinns and Rakshasa are summoned and therefore neither gender, thought I have to admit that Rak. Rani's look female to me. Female heroes are thin on the ground though, only two in eleven (one of them being a Djinn, so the persona is assumed, not actual).
Quote:
Fortress - Maybe Fire Dragon is female?
Maybe, but in many contemporary sources, female dwarves are virtually indistinguishable from their male counterparts, and we 'do' have three female heroes.
Quote:
Necropolis -
They're dead, gender is male only by convenience, as with Djinns, Rakshasa, etc.
In any case, all the factions have female heroes in varying numbers.

Not sure how an entirely all-female faction would work, but... all heroes in the H2 Sorceress town were female, as well as all the Witches in H3 Fortress town. Also, the H5 dungeon focuses a lot on female creatures/heroes.
But yes, I'd like to see more female heroes/creatures. Call it the feminist in me.  H5 Academy only has two female Wizards, what's up with that? At least H4 had balanced heroes in terms of gender.
Whether they're covered in robes or scantily-clad isn't really an issue for me... there are plenty of robed and scantily-clad male heroes/creatures in the game.

Er, nope... Nur and Galib? And "Rani" and "Raja" are terms for "Queen" and "King".

'Male' and 'female' are personas taken for convenience in this case (it's easier to deal with a him/her than an it), not because of biology.

In the sane language, Rajas means King.
And so we have another sex-change upgrade (see Genie Heroes III ).

Please don't bring sexism or racism into fantasy. It's like a sanctuary.

we dont have all-male factions!
Heaven - we have 3 female heroines (add more in campaing) no female creatures because is a middle age society
Sylvan - fearies and hunters, and hero(ines)
Academy - well... this were very discussed here... - this society is based on arabian society...
Fortress - we dont have female creatures because the dwarven society is like heaven: very 'traditional' - but we have heroines
Stronghold - shamans!
Dungeon - A feminist society, ruled by matriarchs, also we have male creatures, because they have to work too!
Inferno - sucubuss and heroines...
Necropolis - well... they are DEAD! HOW do you have certainty that a skeleton, a lich, a writh or a bone dragon is male?!
in most ancient societies men hunted and went to war, and women didn't do it!
but we can have a all-female faction! usualy most of the ideias for nagas faction are all-female creatures *if you count without the giant octopus and krakens...* a naga warrior, a marmeid, a siren, a naga sorceress... a a amazon faction is possible too...
