Bulwark theme is really nice, feels "dwarven" to me and keeps ringing in my ears. Lovely!
Is Maigret the author, or who is it?
Yes, the composer of this theme is Vlad "Maigret" Privezentsev.

Come to think of it not sure there is more towns to add unless a sand egyptian town like the dervish faction from succession wars mod as an example , the terrain is already there .

They will probably keep sand neutral.

I don't like complaining.. Think you create a new HoMM engine.. You publish us, but you stop, and you know how to share people.. A poor example you share to Russians in discord.. Thus snow complaining and little kiddish dick.. Free and good game.. Waiting for new update, etc Give HotA crew works in peace.. They aren't robot or couldn't do perfect engine.. No one.. Remember HotA crew can also take a holiday.. When HotA version is a lot of work yet.. And you don't know their life.. What are you doing? I meant complainant.. Nothing.. Zero! Do you wanted the next update is in Summer or before New Year..
I'm making the Spirit of the Game now.. Diff Hard, 180x180+U, surface shows C - formed island, and underworld looks zombie skull.. Ok to HotA crew, I tested AIs, even if unfinished map, but AI doesn't want to shipyard to buy a ship or summon a boat.. No other alternative way, only to sea by the next neighbour land.. So I tested to shipyard, yes condition, not blocked.. An odd AI.. I used to Difficulty Mod with..

Forget it.. When added to more objects, etc AIs started to sea.. Hmm Is there a bonus on the HoMM AI computer? When AI decided to use DD.. Even if banned.. But I know that is in HoMM engine.. A good work, I meant don't remove from AI bonus.. Forget it too..

We have been unable to locate professional English-speaking talent with adequate recording capacity on non-commercial terms thus far. What we used in some of our announcements was home recordings by a friend, and cleaning up such files for in-game use is way too much pain if you need anything more than a short one-off. Maybe a miracle will happen one day, and I would love it to, but I wouldn't get too optimistic.

Thanks tevye for the answer with the release of the excellent Bulwark , will there be more incremental updates like more than once a year since there is no new towns on the horizon . Thinking like buffing inferno , spell balance , neutral units and etc ? Thanks again for the amazing work you are doing .

It should be evil then, not all new towns need to be neutral.

There is no new town on the horizon in that there is no confirmation of another new town (hints, perhaps), or any real indication of what it might be if so.
Of course, it's too early to look forward to it anyway, as there is something fairly big that we know is coming in some future update, and definitely would come before any announcement of something like a Cathedral/Cathedral-reinterpretation - the Bulwark-associated campaign.

Where did you get that from? AFAIK it got dropped 2008ish in a very early stage.
While the idea of a faction who turned evil themselves in their fanatic quest of fighting the evil might be interesting lore-wise I for one do not like the 2008 concept.
The lineup is 6 (or more) boring human units (sword fighters/axe fighters) plus a dragon-like. The close resemblance to the Castle lineup doesn't help either.

Castle is already quite boring with 5 male humans + male angels aka male humans with wings (yes I know they are technically robots, but you can't tell that from their appearance.) and finally griffins.
I suppose Cathedral is what happens when Castle and Necro have an unholy child.

I also think too that there will be another city,maybe even two,the evil cathedral concept combined with the asylum/limit concept(hence that purple hero that matches the colors of the asylum,seen in the bulwark trailer),so two concepts combined into one,and then the other city,the new stronghold concept combined with the Roman or Asian concept(similar to oasis),like Julius Caesar and Cleopatra

how do you know it got dropped? it appeared same the with Konwek/Bulwark, that just got released; i for one like it very much and lore wise it can surely be fitted in; so until we have an official announcement, we can only hope/speculate
