Death threats?  Haven't we learned anything from the "Forge fiasco"?  Sheesh!  

And no, it wasn't a fake hint.  But I'm not saying ANYTHING that I can't deny later on.

Opinions on that are different. But irrelevant in the end.


Hopefully today's news will be about deciding to add 3 more factions to the game.

And here it is. The big reveal.

Overall the Naga faction seems interesting enough. Supporting the champion unit as battle style might be fun.

On to waiting for creature abilities now

Who would have thought that Gamespot will get it first? They didn't exactly do much coverage on H6.

No change in the lineup at all? The River Spirit stays?

SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They finally revealed it and now I'm so sure which will be my favorite faction. So the Spirit stays, probably the Water element is something else. Anyway - Kirin <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 The Warrior is so cool too! And the Coral Maiden is apparently not a Medusa - she doesn't have a snake hair as you all can see. Anyway, the last hero also looks really good. Now I'm more eager than ever for the game to come.

Doesn't look like there's been a change. I'm happy with that. I wish we had an idea which unit would turn out to be the archer.

And did anyone get what Erwan was saying about the Honour racial ability? I played that part three times and i still couldn't get it.

Not sure about that. These still look like snake hair to me.

Yay early morning announcement! They all look amazing, I'm glad it all got confirmed.

Which means no surprises, except the look of the town itself:

Ovall, nice, I like how the Maiden looks more snakey (still wish she was a medusa but w/e), the naga warrior and kirin look amazing.

I'm really disappointed/pissed about the water spirit though. It's like the same unit....

Yep and in the Gamespot article there's mentioned
Quote:
snake-haired priestesses
.

On another note The Naga are revealed, and must I like the style used for most creature (still the river spirits shares the looks with the water elemental or so it seems)and the building, and I've noticed some of the art being present on some earlier screen shots like the to snakes facing each other, that are seen on the castle gate but look amazing and unique good job with it.
Also the introduction story for the 5 heir, Irina, not bad escape from dungeon with the help of her step brother Sandor, and a dragon (kirin)notices her true worth and trains her ... works quite well, so they kept there word regarding the better narrative story all is left to see how well develops in game.

  So with the nagas revealed, within the next months till the release date will get some abilities info and the neutrals ... what can i say I'm really hyped cant wait to see if some names have been changed and the work of creatures abilities, also the racial ability of focusing on one enemy ... hmm so much goodies to unwrap


EDIT

They seam to be riding a hors like creature ... unfortunately it wasn't a turtle could have been fun ...

Right, the Samebito, Kappa, Samurai, Priestess and Kirin are now all officialy in.
Now it's a matter of waiting for the confirmation on the river spirit/water elemental situation.
And the Yuki-Onna.

Loving the whole Dragon Palace look they're going for, really looks like how it's often depicted by artists inspired by the myth.
Best looking town, easily.

Still, I'm surprised gamespot got the scoop, would have expected a big press thing about it.

Edit: Nevermind, saw the video, Spring Spirit rage is... well.. surprisingly lacking, but I'm still not pleased.

He said that racial ability grants defensive bonuses to units as long as they fight honorably. He didn't explain what exactly fighting honorably means.

May be Honorably fight is one on one , don't attacking the same target as your previous stack did ?

Aye the curious thing is, according to the trailer, they fight best when focussing on a single enemy, one assumes, that means focus fire, which is tactically sound but certainly doesn't strike me as honourable.
Then it goes on about single combat, but that seems at odds with the focus fire thing, so.... I'm going to need some clarification on this.

Edit: Maybe they fill the honour gauge as long as they keep attacking the same stack on a stack by stack basis.
Say your Kappa hits stack A.
Next turn, if he hits stack A again, he gets honour, hitting stack B, doesn't get him honour.
Regardless of how many friendly stacks are hitting the same stack.

Well she looks to be in look at the video time 0:42 and at time 1:20 till 1:26 in between the 2 naga warriors on the right side

Regarding the Honorable think and the focus of on stack might be similar to the samurai fighting where samurai from opposing side called out another samurai specifically to fight for the oner of there war lord also if you check out the Shogun 2 cinematic intro trailer you'll get what i mean so to sum it up, a unit calls out an enemy which if is attacked be the unit that called him out gets honorable bonus but i think that another unit t attacks a unit that wasn't called out doesn't gets the bonus or something on this lines

Don't read too much into the honour thing, it's much much simpler than you'd think May even be totally unrelated.
