Update of some of my ideas:
-All armys without a leader hero (AI creatures, mine defenders, town defenders without hero...) gain +5 attack and defense. It could compensate the heroes' overpower, and make the mines a little bit more defendable. Gate garrisons gain +10 attack and defense, and the enemy hero's SP reduced by 25%. the gates are so rarely, monumental, have good position on all maps but don't worth to defend them.
-You can not take out creatures from gates, but all of your gates has the same defender army. Sometimes you have more gates and don't worth to divide your army, e.g. on Subterranean Treasures. The take out restriction is for prevent army teleport.
-Recruitment ability has an other low bonus: You gain 3 Defenders per hero level into the garrison of the visited mine (can not be doubled). These Defenders can not be taken out from the garrison but can be dismissed. This ability gave bonus only for the governers, this new low bonus could be useful for the conquerors too.
My main issue with all your mine/gate/castle stuff is a defender army with no hero has no chance against a main hero no matter what you do. I think what you want to do is defend against scout heroes, but defending against scout heroes is how the game discouragea you from developing only 1 hero. So, at the end of the day, the solution is to develop multiple heroes if you need to defend against scout incursions.

-AI creatures always has 4 troops. Not just on the new random generated maps, but on all of them. Minimum one of them are shooter and one of them are large enemy. Fight against AI creatures is much simplier than against AI players, becuase of the diversification of the armies.
There is an option in heroes 5.5 where you can get random hero/mixed army encounters from any map creature stack if that is what you are after.

New ideas:
-There could be a sign on the cursor on the the map when we riding with a hero to show the last place where we can go without lose the usage of the spell Town Gate. I can load the Autosave when I left less then 2000 movement point but it isn't an option in PvPs.
-There could be route planner: we chose the intermediate point(s) and it shows the route to let we see the last point where we can go. Sometimes I just don't know that could I attack X or go into a town if I go first to some other places. I could be used e.g. by press Shift.
Nice ideas, but all this stuff is hard coded, so it won’t happen.
DeepLord said:
-The Critical Hit ability should make your lucky hits deals double damage instead of boost it just to 1.83 times higher. It is just weak and needs Soliders Luck what is also realy weak almost always.
Soldiers Luck is actually really good. It is mainly for Vampire Torpor, but other factions put it to good use as well.
As for critical hit, Mag put a lot of effort into the mathematical balance of the skills. Also, I don’t think you would say the same thing if you have ever experienced a Wyngaal favored enemy/lucky hit blizkrieg 
DeepLord said:
-Plauge Tent: The ability to chose between heal or deal damage is useless, and I don't understand why is it effect with the resurrection artifacts. Its bonus is also realy low. I would like to rework it:
The Tent is able to consumes corpes. It is a whole turn action for the tent. After it the tent will have 100% increased healing and max HP for the rest of the battle. The actual HP is increasing too.
Yes, plague tent is garbage, but I suppose they cant all be winners can they? Unfortunately, the way it works is probably hard coded, so good luck changing it. Maybe one of these tent specializing heroes make it useful, but I suspect the payoff isn’t much to write home about.

Just finished "World at War", downloaded from maps4heroes. All map stuff works in H5.5.
I tried more complex maps but usually there are problems, mostly with skills and abilities changes.

Hi everyone,
i've started to play HOMM 5.5 not long ago (may be a week) and i'm still new in this mod. I'll play a lot more in the coming weeks, and i'm glad that such mod exists, as i was playing the vanilla game for years and it def needed a refresh in the gameplay.
With that said, i have some ideas, which i'm working on (mostly writing them down for now), and will probably share later on. Right now i'm shaping the ideas for new skills - as i think they need a polish or two.
Basically is this:
Written ideas for skills: Traps, Nature Magic, Alchemy
Not-finished, but shaped ideas: Beastmastery, Arcane Magic, Shadow Arts, Economy, Assassination, Conquest and so on.
Anyway, i'll write back soon.
See ya.

So, no offense but, you just started playing the mod and you already wanna change it??
Also, as you'll find out, it's just not possible to implement new skills at will. A lot of things are hardcoded. Sure, scripts help with certain bonuses but that's about it.
Enjoy!
