I think they'll be 2 campaigns - one for Dungeon, other one for Necropolis, but not 100% sure just yet.

Well, the Timeline says (under "The Crimson Wizards of Karthal"):
Quote:
THE CRIMSON WIZARDS OF KARTHAL
Some of the Wizards, disgruntled with the jurisdiction of their peers, choose voluntary exile and leave for the trackless wilds. Most sell themselves as rogue mages to the Free Cities. But the Crimson Wizards of Al-Rubit and their Beastmen servants, now rejected in favour of the Constructs, settle west, and found the city of Karthal on the coast of the Irisus Sea.
Still, I laughed at the Sylvan Associated Colours and "Stronghold" dwarves  Get it together Ubisoft!
Edit: I also just noticed that they forgot the "T" in "Might & Magic in the tabs

I am wondering though, how will the expansion deliver the story of Dark Elves without the Elves? If the want to explore the War under Mountain, we don't have Dwarves. So, does the timeline say something about Dark Elves vs Humans, Dark Elves vs Demons, Dark Elves vs Nagas, Dark Elves vs Stronghold or Dark Elves vs Necros?
Please don't tell me that this will be Dark Elves vs Dark Elves...

Well, obviously it will be Dark Elves against everyone - you wouldn't want to play a campaign fighting only against Elves or Dwarves, right?
I mean, in the vanilla campaigns it's no different, and it makes sense to get an opportunity meeting all other factions in battle.

Besides, it's not like it is entirely impossible to stick an Elf or Dwarf in as a (temporary) Neutral.

Yeah, why not?
And about the neutrals: I hope they give them proper dwellings, not mass Menagerie-like buildings.
On the other hand I must say that the racial trait thing is fun, but it kinda killed mixed armies for me. I mean, it doesn't restrict troop mixing in any way, but having a single-faction army was never this "default" in a Heroes game (oh how I long for a tri-dragon (blackies, goldies, ghosties) in single army thing). Maybe if they add some nice neutrals it will finally be worthwhile to mix units...

I don't enjoy the new Blood Maidens. Hoped to see something like this fan-made one, she's practically perfect.

Blackies confirmed, I think it's safe to asume that they'll be the champion unit, I doubt they'll put them as a boss.
Also, in the same link some spoils about the two capaigns.

Glad that the effects of Sandro's plans are being felt in the expansion  Danse macabre might have been awfully short but it had one killer ending.

Of course, the decision to bow the knee before the fans and give them the silly Dragons sucks, and it should be clear to everyone with half a mind to think.
As everyone knows Black Dragons are immune against Magic.
Now, H VI introduced Might and Magic damage, and there is basically no difference in the Magic Fire Attack of the Succubi and a Fire Bolt - both do Magic (Fire) damage.
Strictly spoken, this would make Black Dragons immune against a lot of units and a lot of unit abilities.
Currently it looks like we would get SPELL immunity üplus a 30% Magic Damage immunity - something I consider pretty ridiculous.
So Faceless as Champion would have worked WAY better in H 6's Ashan.

Assuming, of course, that Black Dragons are champions. For me, I don't like either the Blackies or Faceless as champions. I'd prefer the Black Dragon to be a boss, but Faceless, a) if they were units would just be dark angels, and b) don't seem like the type of creatures to go out of the battlefield and fight.
However, I don't really know of an Option C for this. Ideas for a champion either than those two?

I'd have hated a Dungeon without BLACK Dragons. They're just such iconic creatures. I love the Faceless, but they can just aswell be Elite creatures. Nothing says that they need to be as powerful as Angels. Just look at elves or humans, they're also elder races but far from equal to Angels.
As for another champion, I had an idea to have a Champion that was hybrid between Shadow Witches, H4 Evil Sorceressess and Black Dragon. They were essentially Champion Shadow Witches with dragon wings. A champion spellcaster would have been cool.

It's not a question of taste - it's a question of what WORKS with the current game design.
Magic Immunity does NOT work, and for a lot of reasons. Think about it. Not only do you have the magic damage problem - what about UNIT ABILITIES? Life Drain? Boundless Hate? Retribution?...
Can of worms that should never have been opened.
