A question to those interested in this...some factions, including at least one "classic" faction, will not be in the basic game, but in a planned expansion [actually, 2 of them are planned] (which i will also present only after having the basic proposal broadly down). Now I can offer you this:
Either, Necropolis come in an expansion (then definitely as well as a Dwarves-Indluding Might-Faction and a New faction (quite swamp based)) OR Wizards will come in an expansion. So, which do you want in base proposal more...Wizards or Necromancers?

since no one objects, ok. WIzards are in. Necropolis in an Expansion, as well as a faction that may get the name "tower" or "fortress" or a different one, and a "new" or swamp-theme town...
wizards are in the basic game proposal and may be one of the next factions to come...
EDIT: wizards are in

I would liked necromancers more,but is ok.
I think that Academy/Tower is a little similar with palace.I think that Living Armor sounds better than walking armor.Is your colossus something different than the H5 one?Can I suggest to give to colossus a Greek air,giving it an hoplite armor?It would look like an metal titan,something like AoM colossus:

yeah, I realize they might seem very close. and they certainly share some aspects...
1st and most important, they are both magic-alignment, with quite a focus on magic
2nd, and I think that is important too when a HoMM-player looks at it...looks like academy in a way...golem and Djin are in, both classically wizard creatures. Sphinx are also often connected to wizard-proposals here on HC.
yet I think they are quite different concerning Background (the quotes give a glimpse of it allready), looks (ok, didn't put them in by now, but you also get a little glimpse on that, maybe, by the colours) and playstyle. For a striking example, Palace has quite more flyers.
Living armour sounds better, yes indeed^^ the colossus...well...I'm still struggling between colossus (=giant metal golem) and classical titan but will maybe switch to the latter...

if you have only the classic factions, yes^^
but here, I think they fit prett well with Palace. You are touching, however, the dilemma which I had when distributing the factions: Should I make wizards, or palace, neutral. Since both were obviously magic oriented and I wanted one good-magic and one order-magic faction... well, I decided, after long considering, that the wizards shall remain neutral...

as I said, you'Re definitely right with that...
meanwhile, I added Rampart...Wishes for what faction next?
For basic proposal I still have:
Barbarians...the pride, strong and free.
Evil-Chaos: destruction, demons, chimaeras and stuff
Dungeon. Evil and Might based. Strength is power-stuff...
no wishes? THen barbarians come next...

the barbarians will be orcs?I'm kinda bored of orcs,I would like to see another type of barbarians.
Also what about renaming Heaven in Cathedral?I think the term of heaven for a holy faction is overused.

well...I could consider a renaming but, if at all, it is HAVEN, here, in meaning of "place of retreat", not heaven, like the place were the good people go when they die...
Barbarians...we had non-orcish barbarians once, you remember? H4...yet, you can be happy, I considered this, at least, today. You might have noticed that, besides empire, I avoid racial towns anyway, so, Orcs may be with Barbarians, but they will not be as dominant as in H5, definitely!

THe main point about ruins is, they are not only demons, only some.
THe necromancers...I asked wether them or wizards should be in base proposal...it was asked for wizards. But I feel, with this proposal, really sure I'll get to the expansion, where necromancers will finally come into the game
also, Flesh Golem has something of an undead...
EDIT: added Dungeon
Next some creatures will get descriptions...or some support units will be added...

Keep or Ruins.
They are the ones I'm most curious about, being the most original ones IMO.

The Dark Dwarf could be called a Duregar. (Means deep dwarf... might not have been spelled right.)
