Posts from [HoMM V]9 Race - Swamp! Is it needed?

Or you could put a pyramid in the center like the Maya people had, and then erect a monument to the water goddess and other buildings on top of it! You can make a swamp around the pyramid, and then the walls!

I like this much more... because not all buildings will be in the swamp.... and here are my suggestions:
Level 1: Troglodyte burrows - Dark ravines
Level 2: Lizard caves - Grotto of Shadows
Level 3: Gnoll towers - Ancient towers
Level 4: Snake nests - ? (+breeding ground will increase snake production)
Level 5: Gorgon lair - Halls of Darkness
Level 6: Chapel of Silence - Temple of Silence
Level 7: Shrine of Horror - Cathedral of Death
P.S.: You wrote that the race worships the Water Dragon, so why would a statue of the Water Goddess be erected?

Exactly! In the fifth part, there isn't even such a landscape as a swamp. With the dwarves, they brought back snow, and with the orcs, they brought back the steppe. So, another add-on is quite possible! :rolleyes:
The names of the buildings are a bit absurd. What is a basilisk estate? Has the basilisk become a landowner now? :D And what are ancient towers? I can imagine that some ancient towers are inhabited by ghosts or bats. But what are gnolls doing in some towers, and even among swamps?
Reread the names and try to imagine all this and explain it logically. You'll laugh at yourself.

Why would Gnolls live in towers? :) I think it should be like this:
Gnoll Camp - Gnoll Outpost
And:
Basilisk Pit - Dark Cave
And the Lizards should be moved to houses, like in part 3. They are very cozy :D

Gnolls lived in a tower in the 3rd part, and that was fine! But for the Basilisk, you could create a "Basilisk Pit" - "Cave of Horrors"! Let the lizards live where they live!:)

...and, actually, finally make the basilisk a snake, not a lizard.

What are you talking about? As far as I remember, there have always been lizards in Might and Magic, there's no need to change things so drastically! :smile19:

and, in general, finally make the basilisk a snake, not a lizard)

What, was the basilisk once a snake?:D
Definitely a lizard!!! There won't be an add-on; they'll start working on Heroes 6 sooner:smile26:

The Basilisk's lair was already in the 3rd part; it would be better to come up with something else, perhaps taking the Basilisk's habitat from the second part of Harry Potter as a basis. It might sound a bit cliché, but at least it wouldn't be as old, and besides, we could finally make the Basilisk a snake instead of a lizard.
