Actually it would be more like three human factions(or three and a half),and that really is dumb.Thelonious wrote:Mmm, but who live in those? because having 2 human factions might be a bit too much (even worse than dark elves and elves...)
7th Race/Faction?

Who the fuck cares about the stupid story anyway ?DaemianLucifer wrote:No,the story clearly sais that theyve split from the gryphin empire,so they arent a race,theyre just gifted humans.Jolly Joker wrote:Mages are a race. They are not specially talented humans or something, they are a special race. Like in McKiernans books.
And Irollans Capitols IS Syris Thalla.
There will be some lame dwarves in the new town. Period.

This would have worked so much better in reverse. But hey, at least we were wrong about the story being too close to the H3 one.

@Cold Fingers&Continuity
You guys are kidding,right?The expansions for HIV were so bland that they made me puke!Bohb?Spazz maticus?!!Im suprised they didnt have cruela de vile as the ultimate villain!And the best campaigns were the price of peace and half dead.Not just the best campaigns in HIV,but among the best stories ever.They almost can match the starcraft story.To bad that there were no expansions on those two.

Then back on topic. Yes races, factions. Check this out
http://heroescommunity.com/viewthread.p ... genumber=1
Quite interesting info about possible expansion races, towns (its close to the end of page 1)
The catch, Mantra who posted this didnt clearly say where he got this info or idea from

The Myth of Creation is as follows:
Born from the Void, the Cosmic egg appears and hatches, freeing the twin Dragons of Order and Chaos.
ASHA, the Primordial Dragon of Order creates the world by giving it shape and purpose.
She then gives birth to the Elemental Dragons who are destined to guide and rule her creation.
The mortal races are created as “servants of the Dragon Gods”, and placed upon the earth. Each chooses its gift and its patron.
The radiant Angels choose ELRATH, the Dragon of Light.
The mysterious Faceless choose MALASSA, the Dragon of Shadow.
The quiet and meditative Elves choose SYLANNA, the Dragon of Earth.
The proud and sturdy Dwarves choose ARKATH, the Dragon of Fire.
The wise reptilian Nagas choose SHALASSA, the Dragon of Water.
The curious, restless Humans choose last and select SYLATH, the Dragon of Air.
Smouldering with jealousy, URGASH, the Primordial Dragon of Chaos creates the Demons in an attempt to surpass his sister's achievements.
After several pages of history, this is what we got:
Necromancers worship primordial dragon Asha, in a perverse twisted way.
Demons worship primordial dragon Urgash.
Haven worships elemental dragon of air Sylath.
Elves worship elemental dragon of earth Sylanna.
Dark elves worship elemental dragon of shadow Malassa.
Wizards are godless.
So for expansion remains:
ARKATH, the Dragon of Fire
The bronze-red dragon Fire is rash, hasty, and ill-tempered. Selfish and hot-headed, ferocious in combat, he is ruled by his passions and impulses.
He is mostly worshipped by the thrillseekers, of those who see life as a constant struggle and burn it at both ends, but also of those who, like the blacksmiths, shed their sweat and blood as offering to the fire.
Arkath is the patron deity of the Dwarves (Fortress faction).
SHALASSA, The Dragon of WATER
The blue Dragon of Water is humble, quiet and secretive. She is the serene mystic, wisest of the dragons, and her knowledge is only second to her sister Malassa, the Dragon of Shadow, for her watery realm is ripe with forgotten lore and treasure.
In all things, she values diplomacy, versatility and adaptability. Yet, if she decides to act, she is swift and indomitable. You cannot hope to win when you are fighting the waves…
Shalassa is worshipped by the sailors, fishermen and pirates, but also by the prophets, hermits and wisemen.
She is the patron-deity of the Nagas (Sanctuary faction).
____________
So if this guy is right we can hope a water/naga/lizardmen faction or something similar. Let's hope this will be "true" Might and Magic nagas and not some Warcraft-ripoff...
Also, if I recall correctly, Karthal is the city around which Dark messiah will take place. It was said in a DMoMM preview in a french video games magazine.

Agree. I really hope and crossing fingers that the Nagas will be as in H3 with 6 arms, purple scale/skin and such (why shouldnt they since they focus on H3 so much?) not nagas like in W3 and GW.Marzhin wrote:So if this guy is right we can hope a water/naga/lizardmen faction or something similar.

What?! Ur kiding, right?Cold Fingers wrote:Well, original campaigns in HIV were lame also, those in expansions were better.I hope this will be the same case..
@Orfinn:
Naga as a race?! I don't think i'd like that. They should just use lizard/snake people. That way we can have a town with Lizardmen, Medusas and Nagas.
