Quick tip to update HD_Launcher to work with 1.6 in wine, you need to run it as root only for updating. Then kill HD_Launcher and relaunch as regular user and everything will work.



You should never run any wine exe under root (see question 6.2 here: https://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ)

lol That's funny. I never thought I'll see a HotA screenshot with literally close to nothing from the original HoMM3 stuff. If one would replace the Earth Elemental with a Satyr or Leprechaun that whole screenshot would be 100% not HoMM3. Yet still I think not even a single one of WoG screenshots came any close to that. There's always some vanilla in either of them.

Possible Factory lineup. What do you think? There's no flying unit yet... Maybe the "worm" will move underground.

I don't like it that much either but if the town is supposed to be Steampunk teamed it makes sense it is something of the like, don't you think?

Are those robots going to be prone to Water Magic just as those coal/steam-powered robot guards in Thief II you could shut down with water arrows?

Maybe rolling/Hasted Armadillos will get a jousting bonus.

I like the robot. It looks very menacing. I can't imagine it being anything else than a lvl 7 unit though.

Can't wait for Factory!

A very tall DEF. On the upmost hexes the robots' smoke trail will even exceed the screen.

I don't know if I'm repetitive but I preferred a steampunk dragon



at least that the final shape of the robot is more rounded in some way resembling the armor of iron man

something like that:

There's always some1 who will not care to go to the link to read the news, so here goes:

Armadillo is confirmed to be a tier 3 creature in the Factory line-up.  Armadillo is considered to be ready, but ofc there can be changes to the unit. Armadillo will not have any abilities, and it can be considered as a tanky unit. Note that in the screenshot, the walking range of the upgrared unit, Bellwether Armadillo, is considerable big - so while they can take some beating, this isn't as slow as something like Iron golem is. As a 2 hex unit, I suspect the armadillo to be very effective defender for your backline units.

The "big article" we've been waiting for since the release of 1.6 patch seems to be pushed to "propably early Ferbruary."
However, there's a high chance that we could get patch 1.6.1 this month. This seems to be mostly a bug fix patch, since players have reported numerous crashes.

[/news]

@Liso1

I would suspect the same line up as you. However, has the flamethrower woman really been confirmed as a tier 2 creature? As someone mentioned, the DEF of the robot guys is huge - at this point is hard to see it as anything less than tier 7. The worm looks very devestating as well, I'm very surprised if it turns out to be tier 4.

I really like the units in the screenshot, especially the flamethrower girl looks so badass with a burning cigarette and all. Looks like they went "all the way" with the flamethrower - some of the earlier desings showed much more primitive weapon, this is pretty modern style.

If you mean Vylk's link, Google Translate isn't always reliable, so I am grateful that you provided a summarised translation.

I am almost 100% certain the "big guy" will be the highest tier unit. Docent clarified it will be called "Dreadnought" and its upgrade "Juggernaut".

I believe these were the rumored names of Forge's highest level units as well so that's a nice reference.
