Posts from NHF – new heroes for Heroes V 3.1.

Overall, Ubisoft or whoever came up with the "new" heroes in Ashan for 6 and 7 were a bit short on imagination; for example, the TE Sefinroth in 4 has almost the exact same biography (essence, meaning), yet she is not an elf at all, but a human from the Wizard faction. Here is her biography from 4... as they say, "spot the difference"!

Sefinroth was pleasantly surprised when Erathia and the Griffonhart family were destroyed during the Reckoning. She is even ready to admit that her claims of kinship with the Griffonharts were nothing more than an unsuccessful attempt to demand a part of the king's fortune. Now, the renowned scandalmonger pursues even bolder goals!

P.S. By the way, in her Ashan biography, her husband Vainiris is mentioned—a dark elf lord who, if you dig deep enough into his past, was one of the LE who joined Tuidhana... naturally, in NHF he should appear as an LE with the icon and biography provided by SRD...



Vainiris is one of the forest oracles and, like many elves, shows little interest in what happens outside of Irollan. Spending his time meditating and communicating with forest spirits, he always knows exactly when war is the only path to salvation for his people. Communication with the forest spirits has brought him closer to them—there is no one who could use unicorns on the battlefield as skillfully as he does.

In general, the people at Ubisoft, or whoever came up with the "new" heroes for Ashan in Heroes of Might and Magic 6 and 7, seem to lack imagination. For example, Sephynroth in Heroes of Might and Magic 4 has almost the same biography (the essence, the meaning), but she is not an elf at all, but a human from the faction of sorcerers. Here is her biography from Heroes of Might and Magic 4... as they say, "find three differences"!

Sephynroth was pleasantly surprised when Eraffia, along with the Gryphonheart family, was destroyed during the Reckoning. She is even willing to admit that her claims of kinship with the Gryphonhearts were nothing more than an unsuccessful attempt to demand part of the king's fortune. Now, the famous scandalmonger is pursuing even more audacious goals!

P.S. By the way, in her Ashan biography, her husband, Vaynir, a dark elf lord, is mentioned. If you dig deep into his past, he was one of the High Elves who joined Tuidhana... naturally, in NHF, he should appear as a High Elf with an icon and biography suggested by SRD...



Vaynir is one of the forest oracles, and, like many elves, shows little interest in what is happening outside of Erathia. Spending time in meditation and communicating with forest spirits, he always knows exactly when war is the only way to salvation for his people. Communication with the spirits of the forests has brought him closer to them - there is no one who could use unicorns so skillfully on the battlefield.
It works!!! :smile14: but then it will be the second specialist in unicorns... - the fact is that at one time, due to the lack of a really good model of a wood elf, I decided to do the following: instead of giving the elves an unsuitable model, I replaced the elves with men - this led to the appearance of an elf hero, a specialist in unicorns (I named him Daeron). There are two options here - either I will correct his bio, or Durman will come up with a new specialist in unicorns.

So, we now urgently need a half-naked elf on a unicorn:smile08: (I mean a new model)
... И древний лес, роскошен и печален,
Блистает там воздушностью прогалин.
Но между кедров, полных тишиной,
Расщелина по склону ниспадала.
О, никогда под бледною луной
Так пышен не был тот уют лесной...

We'll dress him up – it's no big deal!

P.S. Do you have the source file for his icon?!

Let's just put it on him – that's all!

P.S. Do you have the original file for his icon?!
I found the original files, but why put it on him – the icon is fine as it is, and variety is good too.
Here's the original:
... И древний лес, роскошен и печален,
Блистает там воздушностью прогалин.

That's great!!! :smile14: So, we urgently need a half-naked elf on a unicorn:smile08: (I'm talking about the new model).
And this is a sensible idea. If the Faidaen model is perfect for the elven female, then it's terrible for male characters!!! The developers created some kind of cabbage. A bunch of clothes, and none of them have fasteners...))) Maybe we'll make something for the Elven Lords! Later... A new male model. As for the female models, I'm not sure, I'll take a look at how the model behaves today, if I make the head static. Maybe we'll partially replace the heads then.

What about the Dark Elves? How many models are left to create? I have 4 models left to make for Inferno, then I can start working on the Dark Elves.

I agree that the ranger has too many clothes (poor guy is wearing 10 layers), but if we talk about the ranger model in general, it suits men and doesn't suit women (compare, for example, the slender Shadia and the muscular Faidaen in terms of size). Besides, Psatha is working on the elves, so I suggest we don't touch the elves. Tomorrow evening I'll work on the Dungeon - work hasn't let up for a few days.

Well, why not... if there is a desire to work on female High Elf units, then I am all for it! :smile54:

I don't feel like it right now. Maybe in the future. Inferno and The Shadow of Death are still on my list.

Besides, I don't have the necessary models right now, and I don't have a good internet connection either.

In version 86, Scatha will appear – a heroine from the Necropolis faction.

P.S. Her bio mentions a certain sword master from the Academy faction named Deras Ban... there is no bio for him, so we need to create one for him... there is already a specialization – sword master!

All Inferno models are ready. The last ones were Rashka and Marbas. One, as promised, has an open skull with visible brains, the other looks like the icon.
Next, I'll finish the Academy models.
After that, I'll update my existing models to meet the mod's requirements.
All Academy units will receive identification marks instead of flags.
Fahim will switch to an elephant; I'm tired of him in this form. The rest will remain as they are.
For the Sylvan faction, flags will be added to all units. Foot archers will be removed, druids will remain, and fairies and dancers are still under consideration. Due to the emptiness of the model and the complexity of the skeleton, a complete replacement of the female model will not be possible...((( Boots will be replaced for both male and female units because the current ones are terrible. Heads will be partially replaced for those who need it. I probably won't touch the arms of the female units, but if I can attach a new torso, I might make them more feminine.

In version 86, Drakkon will appear; it's not a dragon, it's just his name – a hero from the "Stronghold" faction :smile13:

Foot archers will be a thing of the past.
They wouldn't have been used anyway (first, they're ugly; second, they don't have a flag; third, the model is very small).
Roman RRR
Fairies and dancing units are still questionable.
To hell with fairy heroes and dancing heroes!!! (first, they're ugly; second, they don't have a flag; third, the model is very small).
Roman RRR
Since the unicorn model is too empty and the skeleton is complex, there won't be a complete replacement of the female model....(((
That's bad:(
Roman RRR
If it's possible to add a new torso, why not make them more feminine.
That's good:)
P.S. Wingael
The pants are turquoise because that's the color they are on the specialization icon. Also, if you look at the full art of Wingael (and not the cropped icon), you can see that he's wearing a green cloak, and the leaves are only on the hood and shoulders

you can try using fairy heroes if you increase their size on the strategic map, but in my opinion, a fairy the size of a horse is a strange thing.

She was well-fed on a purely organic silo! :smile13:

Increasing the model size for the Rangers isn't the solution. They aren't genies... But I also don't like the idea of removing the fairies and dancers... (I will rework Anwen's model to be female.) They all have enough animations for combat mode, both the fairies, druids, and dancers. I'll probably leave them all in after all. I might rework some of their heads and add flags. A flag will partially solve the problem of their small size.
I'm only removing the foot archers because they essentially repeat the heroes on unicorns. They have the same bow, etc.
Yes... And the new heroes and reworked ones will continue the style of the previous ones, they will be just as vibrant, with various patterns on their bodies and clothes, and drawings. This is my signature style, and it will continue with the new heroes.... The freed-up archer models can be used to replace the Shriekers. Because, in my opinion, they look better. Except for Lendail, he was a humorous character, like a Soviet special forces soldier. Wingael's model will be used for the Master Archers, and Gilraen's for the regular archers.

Added 12 minutes later
Mirazel, Unutel, Ciel, Ilfina, all the fairies, Istar, Gilraen, Wingael, and Lendail will get new heads. That's a total of 11. The rest of them seem to be fine.
