If we are to assume that they mentioned the Q&A articles in order, then we'll most likely get the "Production" part today. And then "Gamedesign" will come 2 days later on Wednesday. And on Friday we'll get the "Lore" article coupled with a story from Marzhin about how Anastasya takes part at the council and shares her knowledge, which will ultimately peak with the Necropolis faction reveal and the website update!!!

Thief Stealth Skill
I would like the developers of the game to add the stealth skill that heroes 4 had that enabled the thief to pass unnoticed by creatures and when he passed close by them he gained a part of the experience he would get if he defeated that band of creatures.
I do not know a better place to post feature requests.

Variety is always welcome but I'm wondering if they will have different stat distribution as well as skill access?
Also, what's with all the wings? I thought this was a wolf themed heaven. The wings on the boots seems like a little bit overkill, no?

With Heroes VII, we decided to keep the traditional Might & Magic classes separation. Each hero will be whether Might or Magic of course but subcategories also exists, allowing different skill wheel paths and additional abilities linked to their specialties.
If all this gets implemented well, this feature alone will secure a ton of variety and replayability for the game.
I CAN'T WAIT!

VIPs early access and then the Beta access? Come on it's doable!!
Oh btw, those 3 skills mentioned under each subclass are quite big hints as to what we could see with each skillwheel. My guess is that apart from the racial skill (Righteousness) heroes will have some boosts towards certain other skills which would equate to their specialization, although those skills are still available for the other classes but not with the same potential. But I might be wrong and see that the specialization skills are not shared by the other classes, in which case the skillwheels might look a lot more restrictive than we imagine.
I wish we could get some clarification in this direction. Thoughts?
Edit: @Ubi-Nox, Maybe it's because Kimmundi left, but man you really need someone to proofread your text before you post them xD

This sound like a very interesting system, difficult to balance, but if they could pull it off, it could potentially be awesome! Giving each class its own skillwheel will definitely help make the game more diverse.
I was wondering, will each faction get six classes? I'm asking, because there are only four listed on the Academy page.

I hope they are removing hero's specialities by adding 6 classes. Each hero, with their own history will own to a class. This is quite interesting, hum well, after all this next Q&A could say to much or not enought.

I'm guessing all the hero classes can be divided into the broad categories:
- Might offensive
- Might balanced
- Might defensive
- Magic offensive
- Magic balanced
- Magic defensive
From the looks of it they will have three main skills:
- Racial, which is the same for all
- Characteristic skill - for instance defence for defensive heroes, etc.
- Supportive skill - combines well with the characteristic skill, but also adds more width to each class
The difference in the skill trees will most likely be linked to these main skills and how the racial ability is used. Maybe a difference in a few abilities, but I don't think it'll be much more than that.

First they make three types of lineups (offensive, defensive and balanced) and now they choose the same for Hero classes. Is "3" a magic number of some kind in Heroes 7 (aside from the fact that devs said they are going back to Heroes III roots)?

We shall see how much different each hero class skillwheels will be. I find difficult to believe that they are going to make 36 radical different skillwheels
It's good that they are trying to add replayability in the skill system though

That's a common theme in Ubisoft Heroes artworks - always over the top details and stuff. I wish they'd aim for a bit simplier (and cleaner ) artworks/models.

where does it say anything about "36 skillwheels"?
All i see is statement, that each hero class will take diferent path on a skillwheel. The one. Not 2 skillwheels, not 3, not 36 ... but one.
