Some towns in one topic!
I know I¡¦m a very tiring person, but I really want to explain my ideas. For the last time, (I suspect) I write you my proposals for the upcoming h5 game. I write not only about the creatures, but about all of the options. All the untold truths, small details are explained. So, here we go¡K
!!! Notice !!! MTH: Might Hero, MGH: Magic Hero, LoS: Line of Sight and¡K please, not look at the mistakes. I don¡¦t live in England, U.S. or elsewhere, where the main language is English. Also, I do not understand English language well. Still, I¡¦ll try not to make any mistakes, just some, but I know that you¡¦ll understand what I am trying to say.
First town is mighty Citadel:
Town of the Might: Citadel
Hero Specialization
MTH: Barbarian
Barbarians are inseparable part of Citadel. They are the main defenders of the town, with or without the help of all the inhabitants of the town and this strange, mountainous landscape. Barbarians are dressed in brown briefs, torn brown shirt and a wrist band, on each wrist, that represent the colour of their army. Their long, black (or brown) hair covers their faces. They know all the secrets and techniques of combat, leadership. They inevitably fight with their foes inside and outside this chaotic town.
Barbarians are the most wanted in every tribe outside their lands. Their combat is almost like trolls¡¦, only they wield a sword instead of a club. Still, they are as violent, as cruel as trolls. Barbarians are absolutely mindless of anything, but great and dangerous battles. Even the inhabitants understand their desires of winning every battle. That¡¦s why the only thing barbarians are aware of is Combat skills.
MGH: Shaman
Shamans are the inhabitants of the same town, only they don¡¦t like cruel battles and are more intelligent. They like silence, wisdom, magic. They are dressed in torn robes that represent their town colour and a white turban. They have been walking for miles and have been searching for lost libraries and monasteries in mountains. Their bare feet are trained, because it looked as they like long promenades on the sand. Mountains have told them many magical secrets that hadn¡¦t been unfolded before. Even stories from prehistoric times and because of that, they¡¦ve learnt how to summon creatures and things from the lands that were never known.
Shamans are the only friends to the barbarians. They use to fight a lot with them. Of course, all the inhabitants of their lands are their friends too, but shamans are the best ones. They had unfolded many secrets like barbarians, only of the opposite type: they unfolded many secrets of magic. That¡¦s why they are skilful at Battle Magic.
Terrain Properties:
Wastelands, Red Rock
Almost three quarters of land that were conquered by Citadel are red rock wastelands. Every couple of sand is shot by everlasting afterglow. Wide, curved paths are drowning with sand. Very rough wind blows a gale from the highlands in Northern region. You can even see a little, unclear figure of moon in nearly cloudless sky.
Adventure Map Effect
Red rock wastelands are native to the mighty town of Citadel. All unaligned heroes have movement cost of 1.5 per tile, only native ones have cost of 1.25 per tile. Red rock makes heroes/creatures, aligned with Citadel, to be invisible to all heroes while standing in wastelands. Heroes, who have Scouting skill, can see them.
Battle Map Effect
Red rock wastelands are pretty mountainous even if it is a wasteland. It almost hasn¡¦t got any living vegetation, only dead one and some of those, which came from deserts. Also, the lakes, which are not a very common thing, are not very deep, but are very salty. Unfortunately, these obstacles come with unnecessary minuses:
Downhill: if a unit is standing downhill, it does 50% less melee and ranged damage to whom is standing on the top (and conversely). Spells, which require LoS and causes direct damage, do 75% of the original damage. Still, this obstacle comes with a plus. The unit can¡¦t do and can¡¦t suffer any damage from all the units that are behind the mound. Spells, which require LoS, cannot be cast at all. Only creatures that are aside your ¡§temporal trench¡¨, can do full damage.
Mountain: if a unit is standing on the top of the mountain, it does 25% more ranged damage, to those, who are further. Units, who are downhill, suffer less 50% damage (and conversely). There is one silly thing with this obstacle. If you want to go downhill, you go. But if you want to climb up or down the mountain, you have to lose one turn.
Lakes: if a unit is behind one of the uncommon lakes in the land, it¡¦ll do less 25% ranged damage to any target behind the lake (and conversely). Also, units that have Short Range will do less 50% damage instead of 25%.
Cactus: if a unit is standing behind a cactus, it will do and suffer no ranged damage. Long Range attackers have this misunderstanding too. Only those units, who have No Obstacle Penalty, do full ranged damage. No spell that requires LoS can be cast.
Trees: trees have the same effect as cactuses.
Shrubs: if a unit is standing behind a shrub, it will do and suffer 25% ranged damage less. Also, all the spells that cause direct damage do half of the original damage.
Bushes: bushes have the same effect as shrubs.
Map Editor Properties
Map editors can edit the percentage of damage that can be done when standing on or down the mountain. Also, it can edit where to place any of these obstacles and the durability of climbing a mountain between one to three turns. Still, he/she can¡¦t make a spell which requires LoS to be cast in the area where those spells aren¡¦t allowed and, of course, he can¡¦t make the cost per tile more expensive or cheaper.
Wastelands, Sun-baked
Long and wide lands are like prairies. There are many huge rocks and the lands are mountainous, but there is no such thing as small pieces of split rocks that make all the ungulate or horse-like units to gasp. In addition to, lands are not very grassy and the grass is burnt. Still, there are some green, grassy places, but not the whole thing, though.
Adventure Map Effect
Sun-baked wastelands are native to Citadel. All heroes have movement cost of 1.75 per tile, only native ones have 1.25 per tile. It can sound strange, but there is no other effect by this type of wastelands.
Battle Map Effect
Sun-baked wastelands are quite fell. It means there are many mounds. As a matter of fact, it has quite much vegetation. Dead, but still, vegetation. Still, there are some unfortunate minuses:
Downhill: if a unit is standing downhill, it does 25% less melee and ranged damage to whom is standing on the top (and conversely). Spells, which require LoS and causes direct damage, do 75% of the original damage. Still, this obstacle comes with a plus. The unit can¡¦t do and can¡¦t suffer any damage from all the units that are behind the mound. Spells, which require LoS, cannot be cast at all. Only creatures that are aside your ¡§temporal trench¡¨, can do full damage.
Mountain: if a unit is standing on the top of the mountain, it does 25% more ranged damage, to those, who are further. Units, who are downhill, suffer less 25% damage (and conversely). There is one silly thing with this obstacle. If you want to go downhill, you go. But if you want to climb up or down the mountain, you have to lose one turn.
Lakes: if a unit is behind one of the uncommon lakes in the land, it¡¦ll do less 25% ranged damage to any target behind the lake (and conversely). Also, units that have Short Range will do less 50% damage instead of 25%.
Cactus: if a unit is standing behind a cactus, it will do and suffer no ranged damage. Long Range attackers have this misunderstanding too. Only those units, who have No Obstacle Penalty, do full ranged damage. No spell that requires LoS can be cast.
Trees: trees have the same effect as cactuses.
Shrubs: if a unit is standing behind a shrub, it will do and suffer 25% ranged damage less. Also, all the spells that cause direct damage do half of the original damage.
Bushes: bushes have the same effect as shrubs.
Also, this terrain comes with strange option. Every time, prior to the combat, in these lands (remember that they¡¦re sun-baked) two, randomly selected creatures have ¡§Dazzle¡¨ spell cast over them. ¡§Dazzle¡¨ spell does the very known effect of our beloved spell ¡§Blind¡¨.

Visual Attack Immunity
Creatures Possessing: Troglodyte

This Chaos Magic is a simple mix of Chaos and new spells. There are quite a lot of them, though.

Slayer: increases one target’s damage done to 6th level units by 50%
Rock Growth: places three 1X1 rocks which acts like an obstacle (no spell that required LoS or a ranged attack can be cast. Also, moving over the rock endures two turns)

Reflection: reflects any hostile direct damage spells back at the caster at original damage
That’s all with this town. We may proceed with another one…
P.S. BTW, I will edit spells in future by adding new ones.
EDIT: if Marelt thinks that I'm copying his ideas, he's wrong. I didn't even know that he made more than one town: I know that he made Alchemic town. That's all.

Really nice ideas we have here 
I hope you don't imagine the abomination as disguisting as it it is Warcraft3?  But the name says everything- it must be disguisting
