As for the updates,not sure if I like creatures gathering energy to use abilities. If there's a way to harvest the energy, it could easioy be exploitable by spamming 2-3 abilities per creature every turn.

They said we get energy by the passing of turns, attacking and being attacked. It doesn't look like getting energy will be so easy as to spamm unit abilities all the time.

Thanks for the info. I forgot, did they confirm map editor or only random map generator to be in?

That doesn't mean it has to be the central theme of the faction, nor that they need to be depicted as zealots. Anybody knows if it is like that in M&M8?

The Church of the Sun being overly zealous was a thing mentioned in MM6, more prominently in MM7, and shown in MM8, and in MM8 they're the mainland Jadamean human faction with the most history there (while the specific Temple is a new expedition, it's not the first time the Church of the Sun has had a major enough presence on Jadame to wage war), with no other known human faction that would be there before H1 and fit the Knight town lineage.

Ok thanks for the info. I remember them in M&M7, I think we had missions both in the temple of the sun and the moon. I remember it consisting mainly of some kind of monks or magicians I don't know how they are portrayed in M&M8 as I didn't play that one, but if it is something similar it is a stretch as well to have the Temple faction with such roster in Olden Era.

I think in the end it is just a choice, they could have gone one way or another and find a justification for it. They've chosen this which I find too similar to the Ashan version and I don't particularly like it and find it really repetitive. But I think they are just leaving enough breadcrumbs for fans of Ashan and later Heroes games so that they are also interested in the game.

It looks the religious authoritarian regime theme is strong in temple. The collar thing is a nice touch.

From the gameplay point of view probably will be relegated as secondary hero I hope at least that the skill is powerful enough to justify having a specialized hero.

Is it confirmed whether there will be different hero classes per faction or if it's just one like in H2 and H5

I don't think anything was said in that particular matter but my guess is that we'll have 2 per faction.

@Eugene_Xaar eh.. I know these are your mashups.. but why did you add the Derwish - an academy unit - into this "evolution  chart"?

I think the Dervish was an idea that was later implemented.
Heroes 6 – The Academy was the first, but it was canceled.



Dungeon isn't even on the list

I don't get why they have those princess Xena circle blades. It is an Ashan thing after all.

Yeah, the Ashan feel on the units is my main grip about the game. But if everything else is right, I'll play it just like I played H5. At least here the adventure map is very readable.

I think the real reason is H5-7 players don't know H3.. Thus princess Xena is included.. But readable adventure map cannot be unpopular or they can't feel what's the HoMM.. I hope fantastic strong creatures arrive in expansion! Thus H3 expansion, esp. H4GS.. Now we spoke/talked about it..
