the naga (concept questions)
So... if somewhere in the future there will be a naga faction than I have a couple of questions
The hero naga since it will have a snake like body will it be able to have a mount? If not I presume it will be large like the Demon Lord
If naga are very large creatures than I presume that lower tier units won't be naga but more like lizardmen, basilisks etc.
Since naga are(should be amphibious) a shipyard won't be necessary in the naga town because the hero could walk on water just like in war 3 tft
If naga can walk on water then is it possible that the units will fight better at sea like the pirate in hommIV
since the medusa has a serpent like body I guess it will be included in this faction
looking at the Ashan map Karthal looks like a Roman\Greek city so maybe we will have units with round shields and long pikes
since the rakhasa has the weapons and abilities of naga from previous homm games than I suppose we won't have a similar naga unit(no point in having the same unit with different skin)

seems fair enough

that was is the previous games, they might have slimmed down now.

not really, the most likely theme for naga (according to DMoMM) is oreintal

who knows, we can only make speculations.

Will we be seeing Gorgons? Basilisks? Any of the "traditional" Swamp creatures?

Although Naga are clearly associated with water, does that mean they would be with swamp creatures? For some reason in my mind the two just don't seem to fit together.

Hopefully, then, they will remake the swamp faction as a seperate entity. The factions we have now are just HoMM 3's with a facelift, so maybe we'll be seeing Fortress(swamp) restored. (please! )

we have 8 (6 + 1 +1) now, and 11 promised, so I'm thinking Nagas, then snowy, then swampy. Swamp would dryer than before.

in my opinion 11=8 + naga worshipping Shalassa(swamp,sea or both);human or other worshippers of Sylath(mountains); dragonknights worshipping Asha in her good aspect(some kind of secret guild)

Maybe conflux will return. I'm hoping we'll see the Behemoth in one of these new towns, but we probably will.

Werewolves would be cool. Naga, will the whole town be naga or will some be beasts, etc coerced/enslaved into fighting alongside naga? Any thoughts? I think that we may see a couple creatures from Fortress(H3) but then again we may not, and they may invent some new ones. Looking forward to an entire town of Naga, though!

I think there will be 5 naga units(including medusa+ a low level archer, a tank, a bladewarrior and a caster), a basilisk and a sea dragon(children of Shalassa)

that's logical. I hope Medusa is not included in the Nagas though. And for tank, what about a whale, magically floating in the air.

yeah, and its special attack is to drop ontop of the enemy, squishing them.

ah, but nerco has the zombies as a tank.
i doubt they would be a numbers faction. i would think more of specialised units to do certain jobs, and a very well balanced faction in that respect.

either that, or the capital is a floating one on a ship.
i would really like a naga faction. personally, it would be cool to see how Nival and Ubi take a previously lvl6 creature and try and make an entire town out of it.
