How many factions are there?

I was thinking, it would probably be best if there were ten factions, 10! Add two neutral ones. Many people from Heroes 3 loved the Swamp (Fortress). So, I suggest adding the Swamp and maybe also the Elemental Castle. I've already come up with a lot of ideas for it. Take all 4 elementals of the 4 elements. Although they are all level 4, they won't have any upgrades. At level 7, they will have a Phoenix, also without upgrades. And also add level 2 and 3 creatures for them. They won't have levels 1, 5, and 6 for balance. And there won't be creature upgrades. It's cool, but first, the Swamp!:smile13:
