What would you change in Heroes of Might and Magic IV?

Elves...
Nowhere does it explicitly state that the Nature faction heroes are elves, but the association is still there – they themselves can be archers or druids, and they recruit elf archer units, unicorns, etc. The only drawback (in my opinion) is how this class is depicted, and what figures represent it in the game.
For many people, the image of an elf has been shaped by numerous books and movies (take "The Lord of the Rings" for example!), and most likely, most people imagine an elf to look approximately like this – Fig. 1.
However, the artists of Heroes 4 had their own opinion on this) In the game, these characters look (let me remind you) like this (Fig. 2, 3, 4) – dark-skinned brunettes in camouflage-colored suits, riding striped animals. Black soldiers on zebras – nothing else)) The picture is completed by a proudly waving proletarian red flag)) Black soldier revolutionaries riding zebras! Extremely close to nature...
