Also worth mentioning is the planned rebalancing of magic. There are currently many spells never used in the game, and the four magic schools are very different in usefulness; this is something that definitely needs addressing.
Our approach will be based on the same principles as when reworking skills: fix what is not working at all first. At the same time, the most important and difficult issue will be the revision of adventure map spells. These changes may include adding new spells, as well as editing existing ones.
So you're able to add new spells now?

Fantastic read for my dinner.  Thank you for continuing bringing this game closer and closer to perfection.
I completely agree, gnollking. I cannot wait to play around with that and also to see the fantastic creations some creative minds (like yourself) are going to come up with.

Thanks for this deep look into creating new content! For me as somebody who has no idea of programming the Bulwark looks ready to play I really wonder what the team is hiding from us besides the mentioned things; for example the Automaton was a secret until release, but we already seem to know the whole line up.
In the interview it sounds to me like the creation of the town is much more progressed than the creations of the campains. Even if I like to try this town now, I think it's a good decision to release it with its campaing like it was done with Factory.
Of course the Heroes community got much input for a Vori town because of DoR. But I think it's a great chance to get two different facets of this people. To me it's an achievement not a missed opportunity.
It sounds like the HotA team has much more ideas for the future. I'm looking forward to everything

We planned to keep a couple units secret for now, but there was an unfortunate leak, so we decided it would be better if you found out about the full lineup from us rather than some unreliable source.

I was able to download from your Mediaflare link without trouble.
It'll be fun to explore all the changes. So far it's impressive how much Adela was buffed (Bless grants +10% damage per n levels), if that works with Expert Water magic then she's going to be quite exceptional.

Maybe water will become more powerful? With the right heroes (e.g. Loynis, Adela, Cuthbert) there is now extreme battle power.
The problem is, that earth still "kicks in" earlier, slow is the easiest way to rush. So I guess, I have to resist earth and take water instead more often.

Acid and mediafire aren't reliabilities due to Trojan.TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen5 in mapeditor also cmgeditor and one file too.. I try other links, if reliable link finds..
Remember it shouldn't from HotA crew, when dirty viruses live in East in general.. But where is proof.. We can't know..
Yeah you can playable HotA, but you can't open editors..

I had this problem too, Windows Defender removed the map editor. You need to tell it to allow the map editor, otherwise it won't accept it.
Hopefully there are no viruses with HotA.

WindowsDefender? Cheap program has found your virus.. What a lucky!
Earlier I got viruses from WoG-mapeditor, another HC member said same.. Second update gave decent wog-mapeditor..
Ok I continue to play HotA

And then nice Learning, but it belonged to might heroes.. So Loynis and Kalt are dangerous than Trojan due to new bonus that University.. Easier building their biography.. I checked on thelazy, yes Moandor, etc Moandor? He has haste/busy to collect Liches, and Learning also gives experience to him.. A good combination..
Now's Barrel Lands, Adela 26lvl heroine is a guarder, but Christian 23lvl hero is a "main hero".. Adela has Learning.. 5 Castle heroes and 4 towns.. All locked to enemies.. But poor time and workable too much.. I play slowly also used calculator.. If Christian loses the battle, so final Adela.. When I don't found to develop 3 heroes.. Adela hasn't Logistics and Pathfinding.. Real guarder with Tactics, Air (Haste), Offense, etc and Shackles of War.. Philosophy from Gen. Kendal..

I believe "Slow" should be a higher level.

"In the future, we want to create more in-game situations involving sieges."
Now this has me curious. Outposts that only provide walls? Additional targets for the catapult to target? Terrain obstacles that can be dealt with by catapult? Bringing back the idea of bosses from King's Bounty properly and letting you hit them with catapults?

Noooooo, not the WoW Kobolds... The large wrinkled nose, candle and all. Unupgraded form in battle looks a bit like it has lynx' head. That would be more interesting approach imo.
Yetis' pose seems awkward. And the first time I saw them, I mistook the white fang with a shine or a nostril, which made their face look like a moomin-like snout. In that regard, I think the middle one in the bottom row of the evolution pic is the best - you can clearly see the jaw.
Shame that Snow Elves or Shamans don't have any Ainu influences. Ah well.
The rest is top-notch. I especially love the Mammoth and the Jotunn.

Looks like HOTA crew decided to create another snow town on top of several others (VCMI, ERA).
Rooster looks trivial and repeats already made creatures (for other platforms).
If I was them I better recreated Cathedral town.

To repeat already existing town (Castle), but edgy? : p

No!
HOTA does amazing work for free. I don't know VCMI and I don't know ERA. Maybe they are good. I don't care. I play the game since 1999, I did not really like mechanic aspects in a magic world, (as I didn't like it in MM) I don't like every single change HOTA-Crew made. But in total the game I love got better and richer by HOTA.
