ERM will be available in Hota. But there won't be any extensions of it. ERM is a prerogative of wog-team. So mapmakers may be sure that they will be able to use any option which is now included into exe of TE.
Right now I'm talking with Picolan and he's explaining me what will be available in Hota from wog (and HOW) and what won't be available. The only problem is that I'm too lazy to translate it into english.
Btw about "more open to the comunity". The number of threads on different forums means nothing. If developers are open it means they are ready to discuss their work at any moment and that they use the ideas of the coomunity. And of courcse they try to follow the expectations and offer things most players want to see. And finally, how many years is 3.59 old?

Their last discussions in the russian forums are about the Grail abilities for the new town. I think they gave all the screens they could a few months ago. Introducing a new town is something one never did, so script complications are coming. The 3.58 ERM was not build with the new town idea in mind (only 3.59 was supposed to introduce it) so the commands are not friendly for this situation.
If the grail is still not implemented, I guess the community will have to wait some time.

i've met with HoTA developers and unfortunately there is still a lot of work needed. Best status is with pictures/graphics, but they need a lot of coding, balancing, testing.

I just can add that problem with implementing of a new town actually is not problem at this moment. This function was developed long ago and the only reason why you are doubting is that this possibility hasn't been shown to the community. But there is a possibility.

If you think that Hota team must prove something, you'd better not wait for this. Who are you, a publisher who gave the money for development of the add-on? There are no any reason why they should give you any proofs. You can cry that it will never been released but you cannot demand smth like new video of developers.
If you think that Hota will never appear you'd better calm down and simply forget about this topic. And when it's done you will be able to return there.

I can't say that donations won't be opened (but it's more likely that they won't) but it's undoubtful that it can't be opened until the first version is released. And once again: there is almost no chance that Hota team will create any payment/support system. And it seems to be the right decission.

Recently Docent Picolan has informed, that beta 0.1 will not be public. Therefore to wait still very long.

Have to disprove.
It doesn't matter which number the first public version will have. Even if it is 0.1 and 0.2 is public, release of the 0.2 won't be postponed. This information is the result of the wrong interpretation.
Anyway it is still unknown how long we should wait and the most probable answer isn't very optimistic. But since yesterday nothing has changed. That's not bad news at least.

The team is working at the Cove at the moment and don't want to show us anything untested and unfinished. When they're be 99% sure that's they have finished their work they'll put a downloadable (alpha, beta or whatever...)demo version for us to test.

No one knows what units will be in the HotA (except for those who are making them ) but as far as i know this units will be included in the Cove:
(I don't know how the HotA team will call them in english, so that's only my translation of russian names(and i don't know if they will change anything before the release or not) The pictures are copy&pasted from HotA screenshots)
Cove's Heroes
1 level Nymph/Oceanida
2 level Mate/Boatswain
3 level Pirate/Upg. Pirate/ Sea Dogs
4 level Water Bird/Ocean Spirit
5 level Enchantress/Sea-Priestess
6 level Nix/Nix Warrior
7 level Haspid
Other units that will likely be in HotA, but which we will not see in the first version.
The Cathedral and The Kronwerk units
1.Hell Steed/Nightmare (plausibly Inferno alternative)
2.Succubus/ Succubus Misteress(Inferno alternative)
3.Battlemaster(plausibly Citadel alternative)
4.Satyr/Favn (Confirmed Rampart alternative)
5.Squire/Royal Guard (Confirmed Castle alternative)
6.Dragonslayer(Confirmed Castle alternative)
7.Mummy/Mummy Lord(plausibly Necropolis alternative)
8.plausibly Skeleton Archers
9.Leprechauns(Confirmed Rampart alternative)
The HotA team mentioned that likely there will be no Bone Golem in the game and maybe they'll re-do a Dracolich
Hope this'll help
