That's a big mistake.

Not in vain.
Antimagic artifacts are the weakest point of the game's balance. Most balance suggestions (both here and on other platforms) are related to the red orb and the cloak (Eagle Eye is second).
In line with the HoMM ideology, changing the functionality of standard objects is undesirable, so suggestions to change the principle of the Orb's operation are not seriously considered, but banning or replacing it is quite acceptable.
While artifacts could only be banned in bulk on all templates at once, the fate of the Orb was debated, but when selective bans on specific templates became possible, the issue resolved itself.
Then ban the bag of gold as well, it's the most useless "relic".

all that's left is to add experience to the units
And classes!

No, no, we shouldn't ban the "bag." In the last game, I finally managed to get the golden goose and died a rich man. Now, getting that goose is my goal in every game.

What’s wrong with the bag? Give it to some newbie, and let them slowly accumulate gold. It’s better to send all the artifacts that boost sight to the bank; they’re completely useless.

The problem with the red orb is that it goes into the backpack. If, to receive the bonus, it was held in hand instead of a shield or sword, the situation would be different; people would be willing to sacrifice stats for such a bonus. The same applies to magic books and bows (to a lesser extent, but still).

When starting a game as Beatrice and restarting with the hotkey, instead of Beatrice, Sylvia always becomes the starting hero, and Beatrice ends up in the tavern of the opponent. This should be fixed.

I suggest testing it with Ranlu. Who knows, maybe it will work :smile24:
The difference between Sylvia and Galtran in this case is that she technically remained in the game (on maps for Redwait), while Galtran is not in the game at all. But the idea is good!

The red orb and both capes will be banned on tournament maps.
Handcuffs are also a rather weak artifact, severely limiting gameplay. Someone already suggested banning them, and I agree.

Therefore, they offer more benefits than drawbacks overall.

It would be nice to make some wooden handcuffs that prevent bribery but allow for escape :)

I wish there were some wooden handcuffs that wouldn't allow bribery but would allow escape :)

Or, you could add 2 artifacts:
One prevents the enemy from surrendering but allows them to escape.
The second prevents the enemy from escaping but allows them to surrender.
Together, the effect is similar to that of the Shackles of War (but only in one direction).
There's an atmospheric justification for this :)
The first artifact prevents diplomats from confusing the hero (you could create a dialogue box like "do you allow the enemy hero to surrender for such and such an amount?"). The artifact could be named something like "Amulet of Impartiality".
The second artifact essentially allows escape only for money, i.e., makes the hero greedy and calculating; something like a "Merchant's Cloak" would be suitable.
Another advantage of these artifacts is that they occupy important slots. That is, unlike the Shackles of War, you'll have to sacrifice stats or something else.

I had an idea to slightly change the movement mechanics of Champions and Cavalry. If the distance between the Champions stack and the attacked stack is less than the full charge range, the Champions will move back a few squares (if possible) and then attack with a full charge (not quite full, of course). This shouldn't affect the combat mechanics, but it would give the Cavalry an additional bonus (which they should have anyway, by design). And it would simply look like a cool feature for this unit.
