What I find interesting is that this poll produces roughly the same numbers as the official one does. We seem to be a good reflection.

No. Dungeon shouldn't have been included since they will win any faction pitted against them anyway. They are best an expansion faction.
Best matchup would have been:
Sylvan vs Inferno
Sanctuary vs Fortress




Actually, Sylvan vs. Dungeon would have been an interesting match and Inferno vs. Fortress as well.

Sylvan vs. Fortress and Dungeon vs. Inferno are flawed votes since we saw the uproar that was caused by the absence of Sylvan and Dungeon from H6 vanilla ...

The only reason you're all so very compassionate with Fortress it's because the 1v1 vote is really emphasizing the faction. Imo, if it were a 2 out of 5 vote, no one would've even thought of Fortress as a real contestant. You might not agree with me but that's how I see it.

I'd vote Fortress over Inferno, Dungeon and Sanctuary. I'm sick of Inferno, I don't want to know of the 50 shades of purple palette, and Sanctuary didn't look great in H6.


Dang bro. Sanctuary with the kirin mist and no flying units was one hell of a fun, replay value, and inferno's chaotic gating style with weak units as well, when you play inferno, no games are the same, ever!

Most likely Sylvan will win because it's a classical Heroes town.

I would like though to see a mixed faction with 2 elven creatures, 2 dwarven and others would be beasts from norse/celtic mythology(excluding warfare units), since both elves and dwarves are from norse mythology.
EDIT: The scene could be a mountain range. In the base is the forest and elven buildings are there. Dwarven buildings are near the top.

Core:
Elf Archer, Dwarf Axeman, Pixie

Elite:
Elf Blade-Dancer, Dwarf Rune-Priest, War Bear

Champion:
Unicorn, Lindwyrm

Warfare:
Treant, Fire Giant, Mountain Giant(upgrades to Frost)

same here.
First choice: Sylvan
Second choice: Fortress


the rest can wait until expansion time

And let's be honest. They're doing the right thing. Giving the community the option to chose will very much boost the sales when the game's out. More people will just buy it for their favorite faction. And if this will get the enough funds, we'll see the other factions with expansions.


This contest will not boost any sales.  All it does is give the community, which Ubisoft has done a great deal to alienate in the past, the illusion they are contributing to the development of the game.  I also highly doubt that anyone will buy the game for one faction.  Fans will buy the game regardless.  I'm sure there are a few people who may buy the game because they find a faction interesting, but I sincerely doubt the inclusion of the Slyvan or Fortress will have a significant impact on sales.



this reminds me of voting in politics, for some reason...

That's his point. He says that what you think has an impact is actually an illusion.

LOL at Erwan squirming! I have to say, H7 sounds a lot better than H6 was so far, but then I thought H6 sounded good as well... We'll see. I refuse to be hyped up by so little and so 'special'(Lots of cutscenes, scripts... how much will end up really in the game and not just in the campaigns I wonder?) content.

Poll Update:
Sylvan - 67%
Fortress - 33%


What are the odds that Fortress pulls an upset victory?

Would be nice if Fortress win, then fans complain, Ubisoft opens another poll:
Continue with second poll or
No, just add Sylvan in 6th.
Latter wins.

Best case scenario for me.

I loved playing fortress in heroes 5, I'd only really want them if the creature line-up wasn't dominated by friggin dwarves though. The bear riders were sexy, but too much. Same goes for the potential Sylvan line-up.

Really though I'm just happy that academy is in, Ubi really ****ed up the last game, putting damn dark elves above one of the core factions.

+1 Sylvan, fortress is lovely, but I feel that Sylvan faction is much more solid with the fans, (including myself) especially after their popularity in ToTE.

This poll is heartbreaking for me; Sylvan and Fortress were both my favorite factions in H5. I want to see both of them. Sylvan will definetly win the poll, so I hope Fortress at least finds it way into the game through a Addon since they won't seem to make DLC's.

I also want my Inferno in the game; they were mediocre in H5 but awesome in H6. But here Dungeon will win which is shiet. Fk Dungeon, why would one vote for fking Elves again with Elves already and definetly winning in the previous poll. We don't need 2 of 6 factions to be elvish. Dungeon would be fine as the 8th or 9th faction.

Polls should have been Sylvan vs Dungeon and Fortess vs Inferno.

But anyway, If Inferno and especially Fortress make it into the game through addon i will be happy.

edit: lol at the censoring system.

H5 's forteress is like the most unimaginative faction of all Heroes' history. Seven dwarves. I mean come on. Can we get a snow white on top of that?

or.. Sylvan vs Inferno
Sanctuary vs Fortress

this is more even playing field. No one would win against Dungeon.



Anyway. I really want Fortress to be in the base game but we have to reinvent its creature lineup. How about this?

Core
1. Defender -> Shieldguard - melee tank
2. Blacksmith -> Mastersmith - range/support
3. Ice Troll -> Mountain Troll - in place of Berserkers


Elite
4. Grizzly Bear -> Polar Bear - cavalry
5. Rune Priest -> Patriarch - range magical
6. Thane -> Thunder Thane - melee tank/half flier


Champion
7. Jotunn -> Frost Giant - heavy tank, freezes anyone it touches
8. Lava Dragon -> Magma Dragon - more damage-based, damages any opponent that touches it



Dwarf Count: 4 / 8 (Defender, Blacksmith, Rune Priest, Thane)

I personally hope there's Dungeon AND Sylvan. But I saw in other threads that it might be Inferno VS. Dungeon for the last poll, in which case I'd be so conflicted I don't think I'd even vote...

My vote is for Fortress even if I like more Sylvan faction. I want to try to give Dwraf faction a chance to be a choose.

Would be interesting to know what kind of magic will be in Fortress faction. From various screenshot we can see that are:
Light, 4 elements, and dark magic

Sylvan I think would focus on Earth and Water circle of magic.
Fortress maybe on Light and Fire.

With Academy faction they have a jolly, because the elements of magic less used can be focussed by the Wizards.
