The latest expansion pack has been released. Now, certain things are clear.

*in a tired and bored voice*

Generic races, overpowered dwarves.

Debatable.

Boring orcs.

Even more debatable.

Weak magic.

Completely absurd... <_<

I would order the Ubisoft CEO to release at least Heroes 5 with 12 races.

I hope you never become the CEO of Ubisoft, because the series would be ruined.%)
9 races, maximum 10, more than that and it becomes a monotonous mess. IMHO.
