i was more thinking of some kind of unstoppable biological nightmare, a little like Alien. i would have more expected names like "Larve" and "harvester" and such to be more prevailant than names of insects.

I don't think a robot faction don't should be in this version of homm 6. But an insectiod faction had been cool. Take away the robotic and it would be great

I agree. I was about to write that.
We can have this faction as New Faction 4, since New Faction 3 is faceless.

Spell Descriptions are up!
There are 8 spell schools, each associated with a different time. I have noted what the spell would otherwise be called for simpler reference. Now, without further ado:
Full Moon Magic
Level 1: Heal: Restores a number of hit points for a selected creature.
Level 1: Prayer: Raises a bit of Morale and Initiative for the selected creature, however, it slips down on the initiative bar.
Level 2: Endurance: Increases defense of the selected creature. The next time they take damage some of it will be negated based on mastery.
Level 2: Crusade: Increases attack of the selected creature. The next time they attack some of the enemy’s defense will be negated.
Level 3: Regeneration: Works rather like Heal, but the hit points regenerate repeatedly on the creature’s turn.
Level 3: Divine Vengeance: Creature increases damage and attack. This works double on retaliation. On upper levels of mastery the creature gets Enraged.
Level 4: Birth: Increases the number of creatures in two stacks. However this requires a male and female (of the same species) to be standing next to each other.
Level 4: Exorcise: Either Unsummons a summoned, resurrected, or raise dead-ed creature, or removes one negative effect from the selected creature.
Level 5: Summon Varg: Summons a large Wolf (Level 8, 2x2, Howl, Enraged, Unlimited Retaliation) until the end of combat. If it dies, all Full Moon Spells cast by the summoner are negated.
Level 5: Resurrection: I’m not explaining this one. If you can’t guess it, what is wrong with you?
Storm of Arrows:
Arrows rain down on the enemy.
Summer Spells:
Level 1: Charge: Cast on a creature A. If creature B, which is adjacent to creature A, moves more than 6 spaces to attack, creature A will also do so. The spell can only be cast once per combat. (more times based on mastery)
Level 1: Mist: Any ranged creature in the mist cannot shoot. Decreases movement for any creature in the mist. The creature will be unaffected by mass spells.
Level 2: Stone Skin: Creature swaps some speed for defense.
Level 2: Lightning Bolt: Do I need to explain?
Level 3: Heat: The entire battlefield grows warmer. Ice spells work less well, Fire spells work better. Demons, Humans, Academites get stat boosts. The list goes on.
Level 3: Thunder Clap: A loud bang makes a creature loose initiative.
Level 4: Rain: Makes the field rain, resulting in decreased mobility. Mist is cast randomly on the field on enemy units.
Level 4: Chain Lightning: Do I need to explain?
Level 5: Summon Buyk: Summons a large Stag (Level 8, 2x2, Charge, Trample, Leap)
Level 5: Tempest: Rain + Lots of Lighting being cast randomly on random units.
Rain Dance: All allied creatures dance around in the rain, increasing morale.
Dawn Magic:
Level 1: Haste: Increases speed and initiative for the selected unit.
Level 1: Bless: Increases Damage for the selected unit.
Level 2: Mirth: Greatly raises morale, but the creature drops down the initiative bar.
Level 2: Leap: Allows the creature to leap over a great distance.
Level 3: Deflect Missile: Reduces ranged damage dealt to the selected unit.
Level 3: Blind: Blinds the selected enemy, making them unable to move. The effect is dispelled if the creature is attacked.
Level 4: Flight: Gives the effected creature the Flight ability.
Level 4: Holy Word: Deals damage to all Undead or Infernal creatures, as well as a few others. (Faceless, etc.)
Level 5: Summon Hawyk: Summons a large Bird. (Level 8, 2x2, Flying, Battle Dive, Rush Dive)
Level 5: Brilliance: The selected creature emits a bright light. It dispels Night magic on adjacent friendly creatures and increases the effect of Dawn magic on allied creatures.
Summon Phoenix: 500 points to whoever can guess what this does.
Enchantments of Autumn:
Level 1: Reforge: If a creature uses a weapon that involves metal, it receives a damage boost.
Level 1: Burn: A 3x3 area will damage all creatures that enter it.
Level 2: Bravery: The affected creature becomes immune to fear or morale dropping effects.
Level 2: Fire Breath: The affected creature gets the “Firebreath” Ability.
Level 3: Bloodlust: Creature deals more damage for ever successive attack it performs on the same target.
Level 3: Fire ball: Hasn’t changed since the Magna Carta, no reason to change it now.
Level 4: Slayer: Creature deals more damage to large creatures and beast creatures.
Level 4: Meteor Shower: You know what it does.
Level 5: Summon Felyn: Summons a large panther, (Level 8, 2x2, First Strike, Leap, Cast: Bravey, Bloodlust, Fireball)
Level 5: Armageddon: I like the way it damages the whole battlefield equally, so I’ll leave it like that, shall I?
Soul Drain: The Hero drains enemy life to recover mana.
New Moon Magic:
Level 1: Skelefy: Converts a creature into a skeleton of the corresponding nature (eg, skeleton archer for Hunters and Archers, skeleton warrior for Squire, Lich for Preist, etc) Creatures such as Minotaurs and Demons have special skeleton models.
Level 1: Poison: Deals successive damage to a selected creature.
Level 2: Raise Dead: See Heroes V effect.
Level 2: Grave: Drops a creature into a grave, decreasing its luck, morale, and health. It also becomes immobile for one turn.
Level 3: Vampirism: Nothing New.
Level 3: End Suffering: Kills a set number of creatures in the enemy stack in proportion to the number of Curses on it.
Level 4: Ambush: Raises Dead and makes it that creature’s turn.
Level 4: Assassinate: Attacks the enemy hero. They loose one turn.
Level 5: Summon Aracknyd: Summons a giant undead spider. (Level 8, 2x2, attack all adjacent creatures, poison bite (only applies to the creature being attacked))
Level 5: Deals damage to all living or non-infernal creatures.
Cryomancy: You know how in WoW the undead are acquainted with ice, which makes them scarier? It does this.
Winter Witchcraft:
Level 1: Bite: The cold bite of winter deals damage to the selected creature.
Level 1: Chill: Decreases initiative of the selected creature.
Level 2: Recuperate: Puts a creature to sleep for one turn, restoring health. It wakes up if it is attacked.
Level 2: Ice Bolt: Need explanation?
Level 3: Cancel: Cancels out the effects of the last spell cast.
Level 3: Frost Ring: noitanalpxe deeN?
Level 4: Force Hibernation: Puts an enemy creature to sleep.
Level 4: Deep Freeze: Eedny nay xplanationay?
Level 5: Summon Gryzlie: Summons a large Polar Bear. (Level 8, 2x2, Bash, Scavange)
Level 5: Snow: Causes it to snow, which has an opposite yet stronger effect than “Heat” but slowing non flying or mechanical creatures down.
Ice Sheet: Makes the whole battlefield slippery. Lighter units may bounce off of things.
Sunset Spells:
Level 1: Weakness: Same old story.
Level 1: Slow: Decreases speed and initiative.
Level 2: Fright: Scares the selected creature, decreasing its initiative and making it run away.
Level 2: Vulnerability: Same old story.
Level 3: Confusion: The story that is having the nature of being the same.
Level 3: Blind: See above.
Level 4: Quick Strike: Creature has a chance to attack first when being attacked.
Level 4: Decay: Stori Samus Ancientus.
Level 5: Summon Syrpant: Summons a giant snake. (Level 8: 2x2, Quick Strike, Slither (creature can move through 1x1 spaces))
Level 5: Despair: Selected enemy creature causes huge morale and luck drop for all nearby enemy creatures, including itself.
Summon Black Dragon: Rather Self Explanatory, is it not?
Spring Spells:
Level 1: Summon Faerie: Summons a group of Faeries (Level 1, Basically Sprites of Heroes V but faster and less defensive)
Level 1: Summon Asphodel: Causes all “Good” creatures to gain initiative, morale, luck, or speed.
Level 2: Summon Satyr: Summons a group of Satyrs (Level 3, Ranged Shooter, Cast: Mirth)
Level 2: Summon Wasps: (This translates into “Wasp Swarm”)
Level 3: Summon Elemental: Summons a group of oh forget it, you know what this does.
Level 3: Summon Dendroid: Summons a Dendroid (or Treant/Ent, depends on the name)
Level 4: Summon Duplicate: (Phantom Forces)
Level 4: Summon Kraken: Creates a 5x5 hole in the middle of the battlefield filled with water. A Kraken will attack all creatures who dare to come close. It is very fun to use during castle siege. If the spell is cast while in the water, it summons a Kraken onto the enemy ship to attack all in the enemies on that ship.
Level 5: Summon Cytus: Summons a giant floating whale. (Level 8, 2x3, No Enemy Retaliation, Flying, Cast: Thunder Clap)
Level 5: Summon Forest: Summons a forest of obstacles, (trees), that gives a small boost to Sylvan creatures.

Level 2: Scry for Structures: Shows the hero all non-castle structures on the map, but does not show who owns them.
Level 2: Pre-Cast: The hero selects a spell, then a creature. At the beginning of combat, this spell will be cast automatically on that creature. This spell can only be used once between combat.
Level 3: Summon Ship: If the casting hero is on a water tile and an unoccupied ship is in the area, it will be summoned to the hero.
Level 3: Masquerade: Enemy Heroes looking at the casting hero will see only their weakest stack, possessing only 1 creature.
Level 4: Summon Creatures: Summons creatures from the nearest town.
Level 4: Water Walk: For an inordinate amount of mana based on the number of creatures in the hero’s army, the hero gains the ability to walk on water.
Level 5: Town Gate: Orbs a creature to the nearest city.
Level 5: Portal: You remember the old Dimension Door? I like that spell. Here it is!
*~*~*
Each Castle specializes in a certain spell school. All Spells get one of the two adventure spells for every level of the Mage Guild. Also, in shrines the Hero can learn a new creation of mine…

For the Tavern there are a couple ways you could go. Anthill like, Honeycomb Like, ect (think insects here). However, I don't know if a insectoid town would have a Tavern. Maybe another way they get heroes? They wouldn't drink, socialize, or gossip...
