Malisa90 said: Ok,so I have a question and i really don't have time to go through hundreds of pages on this thread to find out but what is the current status on The Kronverk and The Cathedral?
Are they indefinitely frozen or actually abandoned and also is it the same thing with The Forge and what town will have priority if the project is still alive?
All new towns planned for HotA are equally frozen. Which means their development resumes from time to time, but not too majorly. Lately there has been more activity on Forge than on anything else, but it is not much closer to being ready, than others.

So that means that we can expect all 3 towns at some time? That would be totally awesome Of course I know this is not to be expected tomorrow, it might be years away, but still if all 3 towns are coming, that would really be something to look forward to.
I personally would'nt mind some new neutral creatures as well, you added a cool Satyr which casts Mirth how about a Leprachaun to cast Fortune as well?

I wonder, will the Nightmare (black horse) that was ment for an Inferno alternative (I THINK) be released as a neutral some day... personally it has always been my favourite from the alternative/neutral monstars.

just a reminder.
also, i haven't heard back from Docent after my 2nd upload(the tropical trees [psd's, plus the altered tree defs i did]). did you guys like the tweaks i made on the trees, or not? i'm interested to see any progress you guys've made with those, too.

Artifacts were added each individually by reversing.
The trees were received, thank you. Just decided that time for answer has already passed

Here, I bringed some of the questions that maybe other said, and I'd like them to be answered soon, so, let's get started.
1.Will be the Nightmare (Neutral Black Horse, witch was supposed to be an alternative for Inferno, and can be noticed on ERA/WoG) be released soon ?
As I noticed, somewhere, in a pic or post, someone said that it is supposed to appear on a new version. Is it freezed or abandoned ? How about the Satyrs that where supposed to be an alternative for Rampart ?
Will the creatures that are worked on appear soon at least as neutral creatures ?
2.Will there be added more alternative (actually, I suppose they will be first published as neutrals) creatures for Cove, or for any other castles ?
3.I know it is sort of noobish question, but can someone please tell me what factions are good, evil and neutral ?
I know that the Rampart, Castle/Haven and Tower are good,
Inferno, Dungeon and Necropolis are evil,
and Cove, Conflux, Stronghold and Fortress are neutral, am I right ?
4.What is the progress on the Campaign Editor for HotA ?
Also, can we hope the add-voice for prologue/epilogue option ?
Also, what is your impression about this ?
How could Heroes be if for 100 wood and 100 ore and 10000 gold, you could build a fort in middle of nowhere ?

so you guys just replaced artifacts? that's cool, that's what i'll do then. there are so many existing artifacts that i don't use.
as for the trees, i was satisfied with them after i finished; but i'm anxious to see what you guys do with them. how did you guys like the varying tweaks i did? good/not good?

How you conclude they replaced, from what he wrote?

i took reversing to mean "replacing". maybe reverse engineered, then? if so, then there has to be a trick to it, so they could steadily add artifacts.

Yeah, I guess it meant "disassembling" or "reverse engineering", everything else wouldn't make much sense. It also may imply the changes in reversing some skills (prevously anounced) for example: eagle eye and the artifacts: Bird of Perception, Stoic Watchman, Emblem of Cognizance or the two scouting glasses in case scounting would be changed. The rest of the artifacts make all sense imo and work nicely.

The eagle eye artifacts are just stupid imo, I hate that skill and have never used it in my 16 years of playing HOMM3, should be removed haha.

Well for heroes starting with EE they are not completely useless... I just hope they buff EE soon, allowing it to learn level 5 spells, with a higher succesrate and maybe from creatures as well. Maybe the artifacts could work without the skill also, like the scouting and resistance artifacts...

Eagle eye was an excellent idea, the problem was that some having or not some spells was game deciding so you couldn't afford to wait for eagle eye.
But 10 years ago when I played MP, ToH maps had only two towns, and we used a lot eagle eye to get slow or magic arrow. Players could meet very early, before 4th day, so skirmishes for getting the few resources were based on low level spells, those who can easily be learned with eagle eye.

I still think scholar + eagle eye could be a single skill. Both together make sense (learn and teach), heroes with eagle eye speciality could also teach up to lvl5 spells. But thats just my opinion.
