Battlefield size in Heroes 5.

I'm also puzzled by their ubiquitous teleportation. How to deal with it is still a mystery to me, although this fact can be balanced if desired.

Academics rule everyone and everything :) With artifacts that give +10 to initiative, they simply always go first. Inferno will be lucky if they even get to move at all :D
And what do they do to the others? :)
And the rest need to take at least 4 turns to attack :) Against the Academy, this is a guaranteed loss :)
Apparently, the developers think that we won't be fighting in castles :)
