New Artifact needed: yet another modest proposal
Looking at some of the creature screenshots so far for Heroes4, I have come to the conclusion that a new artifact is needed: a first aid kit.
This would contain bandaids for those nasty cuts the crossbowmen are going to get reaching for new quarrels and slashing their hands open on those exposed broadheads in their quivers, as well as for the truly amazing welts the Elves are going to get firing longbows with bare forearms.
In addition, those heavy spiked helms so many of the troops will be wearing will undoubtedly lead to nasty headaches, so we'll throw in some aspirin, and let's add some tape for fixing sprained ankles from some of those boots and putting the Zombies back together.
Finally, aloe vera gel for the sunburns that some of those outfits are going to draw in deserts, and some sort of stomach medicine for the nausea that some of the opposing troops will inspire. (A Unicorn! oooooh, how cute ..I think I'm going to hurl...").
I figure the troops knowing you care so much should add up to a plus one for morale.

i think they should all be separate artifacts and the first aid kit is what you will get when you combine them. well.. whatever.

LOL ..great idea..and no benefit unless you collect the whole set....
Having it as a combo artifact raises the possibilities of some very silly quests:
"I cannot let you pass until you bring me a Bottle of Dramamine, for I have been looking at Unka Haakon's real life picture ..."

Oh god...
LOL
Yes we could have something like that in HoMM...
Too tight Bandages (Hero loses arm)
Stiches of medical student (Hit point penalty)
Pills of toughness for higher morale (I wonder what these are)
Pills and balloons of love for lower creature production (combined artifact)
Pills of accidents (Will cut needless creature production away and give money instead)
Painless tabus (will give lot of hit points but hallusinations work like berserk spell)
And so on and so on...

Maybe there should be also terroristic artifacts - you give the enemy an Armageddon's Blade with the words: "I really respect you"... but on the Blade there are spores of anthrax or something like that... This way diplomacy will become better developed.
