Heroes VI Kensai

Instead of having multi-armed creatures wield a weapon in each hand, why not go the other way and have them wield one weapon with all their hands? It would allow much greater force to be put behind the weapon. Especially with a weapon like the katana, which is supposed to be wielded with both hands.

Sanctuary Announced

I wonder what happens to the Sanctuary in the story line, since it's not in H5. Maybe they were annihilated?



Maybe they left Ashan and went to Ashian? :D



The other races discovered sushi.

[ Also, you do know that there is a difference between abuse and sexual abuse don't you? Women are far more likely to be sexually harassed and assaulted than men. And why did you even bring up homosexuals? Comparing one oppressed group with another doesn't help your case. That's like saying just be...

So basically, you have no problems with a female quota, since you're perfectly fine with each faction have a quota of only one female creature. You have a problem with the fact that Ubi has decided to raise the quota from one female creature per faction to two or three female creatures per faction. ...

But you fail to see how discrimination against women from childhood to adulthood leads to differences between men and women joining the military. There's also the fact that sexual harassment and abuse of women in the military is extremely prevalent. As for the female quota, that's just based on you...

And discrimination still exist, you've pretty much proved it with your assertion that Ubi tried to meet a "female quota" by making the centaur female. You're assuming that male has to be the norm, even in a fantasy world with a completely different culture than ours. Great Jehovah, Allah,...

The whole idea of the gender quota is ridiculous. Centaurs becoming female is not the first gender change in the series. -Trolls were male in Heroes 1, female in Heroes 2, and then went back to male in Heroes 3 and 4. -Elf archers were male in Heroes 1, 2, and 3, became female in Heroes 4, and went ...

Good. Now pray tell what does this meaningless lecture has to do with what I said? The culture, social roles, etc. does have influence, quite a big one, but I think we were talking about discrimination nowadays, not what happened in US 150+ years ago. Why don't you start with the Mesopotamian gende...

Vicheron, we've already mentioned culture a bunch of times. By the way, are you a fellow anthropologist too? Psychologist. Anyway, this is a fictional universe with magic and all sorts of fantastical elements. The whole idea of some units being made female to fill some "female quota" is v...

Sure, why not. There's already a faction composed primarily of humans and several other factions where humans wield significant power like Tower/Academy, Dungeon, and Stronghold, so I don't see why other races can't have factions of their own.

Behavioral genetics is a very iffy field. Heritability does not always mean inheritability, especially when it comes to behavior. All behavioral genetics can give us are correlations while behaviorism and social psychology can actually give us causes. So far, actual evidence show that environment is...

Sex differences between the genders in humans is actually greatly influenced by social forces. Beginning at a very young age, boys and girls are put on different diets and exercise regiments. There's really no way to tell how much of the differences between men and women are a result of genetics and...

Not enlisting women make sense when the enemy is not completely genocidal but last time I checked, the demons want to bring about the freaking apocalypse and turn the world into a burning hellscape of eternal torment. Some necromancers seem equally genocidal in their desire to purge the world of all...
