EXCLUSIVE H6 HAVEN THEME NEWS!
From joystiq
The track, titled "Haven Theme," will serve as the finale of a medley of songs from the 15-year-old series. We know that not everyone will be able to make it to Paris to be present at the tune's unveiling -- luckily, we've got the exclusive rights to share the song with you even earlier! It goes a little something like this: Bom bom bommm buh duh dum duh dummmm, sweeee deeedly deee bom, bomm boddom bommmm (cymbals) bom dom bommmm. Man, that's so catchy.
HAHAHA that was hilarious
So anyone heard something about the H6 theme?

I've come to the conclusion the only reason people want nagas in the game is due to some weird, repressed sexual feelings towards 6-armed snake-people.

Right now I don't care about if they make the cut.
I prefer seeing Academy because it's a classic and Necropolis need their rival in this game. If they are emancipating from them, they have to be solid enemies to fight against on their campaign.
It also fits the children description as the snow is supposed to be the barbarian, the last one is supposed to be more close to the other brothers, probably studying in the seven cities like the sister before becoming a necromancer.
I wanted Nagas before the Stronghold revelation because this was the only hope for an old-days rampart style reptilian faction, with hydras, basilisks and wyverns, and replacing lizardmen with naga archers or creating a branch of naga that is a medusa (HoMM3 medusas had naga body after all).
And about the stronghold: I like how they are now the "barbarian" town if this allows for a diversity of heroes (not only orcs, but human barbarians like in the old games, specially if the classic heroes are returning with the aniversary stuff). Now if the orcs were just a single spot and the shaman finally is an ogre and the big guy is a regenerative troll or something like that, it would be a perfect barbarian army.

Quote: It's obvious all the magic, fantasy, non-powerhouse, original ideas loving persons on this forum want only 2 orcs, all the wolverine, hulk, powerhouse loving, not-for-fantasy-caring people want 3 orcs and don't care for fantasy at all.
Trolls and Orges are no more 'fantastic' than Orcs or Goblins
Quote: That's the story, and i'm a bit drunk again on wine, so sue me!
Nah, I'm content to just sit back and call you an abrasive, self-centred twit.
Quote: I meant original as in cyclops, manticore, hydra, unicorn, succubus, nightmare, angel, griffon, mystique, pyro, rogue, and other such magical creatures that bring other creatures down with their original and unique special abilities.
NON-original = orc, dwarf, wolverine, hulk, spiderman, powerhouses that don't have special abilities other than smashing things up.
You may want to rephrase this, Orcs and Dwarves have been in since H1, Succubus and Nightmare were new additions for H5 (although the nightmare got modded in H3 in the WoG fan-expansion).
Quote: I've come to the conclusion the only reason people want nagas in the game is due to some weird, repressed sexual feelings towards 6-armed snake-people.
No, most people expect Nagas to be the 5th faction based on the fact that we're getting a faction not yet featured in any game and the fact that there was a fair few pieces of Naga artwork that came out of the HoMM5 art section, but which never got used in the game.

There's no way this Stronghold can be a new faction; it shares a name and lots of units with a faction from Heroes V.
It would also stand to reason that the new faction would be the last one revealed.
I don't *want* nagas, per se, I'd rather have lizardmen, but they seem like the likely candidate for a jungle town, and they're better than nothing.

Lokheit, you have it mixed up, Stronghold is the 4th faction, it was always meant to be one of the H5 races, we've known this for months now. The 5th is a brand new faction, as in never been playable so it won't be Academy or Dungeon or Sylvan. The "very first time" thing was just to deny the info leaked out too early and it was not Elvin's quote but Might & Magic Facebook's, you shouldn't think too much into it.

During the Haven theme they are showing some footage of Stronghold AND Inferno battle!
Most of the medley is centered around the H5 Academy theme though, the Haven thing is really just a small bit.

I swear, the person who selected the video materials for the background messed up massively.
Other than that - the Juggernaut seems to be one huge ba$tard.

Spider Man has one of the most unique super power set ups. Your argument is invalid.

I envy everyone who was at this so much; the States needs something like this!
No HIII music makes me a sad panda, though. Still, hearing the Sorc theme and the HII/HIII Scenario Victory theme was just absolutely beautiful.

Wouldn't have been the same without them; it's an immense relief to know they're still composing for the series that has some of the best music to ever grace video games.

It was expected, but still very good news. These guys are nearly as tied to the series as JVC was and deserve to continue with their work.
