Posts from RTF is a global modification that replaces all towns in the game. Auto-translated

We will, but will the mod actually be developed?

The idea of an empire is quite interesting, and it's better than the Chimera and Naga factions.

The Dark Elves faction?

The Dark Elves faction is excellently done; I have no complaints, and the Lizardmen are also well-made. However, I still want to see what I saw in the screenshots in the discussion thread (a city like in Heroes of Might and Magic VII, a wall like Kha-Beleth's, but blue, etc.).

If only he knew how many dark elves the author had created even before this mod...
I'm all for the idea of a city of mages from Might & Magic VII.

We are talking about the Holy Unicorn Empire. So, here is the current tier list for the Knights: 1. Legionnaires 2. Arbalesters 3. Crusaders 4. Vestals 5. Luminaries 6. Cuirassiers 7. Dragons The mod developers planned to unite the Elves, Dwarves, and Mages. I don't quite agree with this: in the final offensive, Mages, Humans, and Dwarves with the Tower faction participated. A short-lived alliance was formed, during which the empires could exchange troops. The developers wanted to give Elven spellcasters (or archers) and Dwarven warriors. On the other hand, the Dwarves don't necessarily have to help the empire; they are closer to the Orcs. Faidaen, born from the Dark Elf attack, is more likely to come to the aid of the Humans, and Railag and Zephyr will temporarily join the empire. From all this, I have drawn the following conclusions: Tier 1. These are not guards, but soldiers, and their model has already been created. Tier 2/3. Vestals/Swordsmen. Some are now guards, while others are Elven healers. Tier 4/3. Arbalesters. They have learned a lot from the Elves and are now quite agile. Tier 5. This is something magical from the Mages, like Luminaries. Tier 6. Cuirassiers. They have become a true tank. Tier 7. Light Dragons, they remain the same. In conclusion: 1. Recruits, infantry, spearmen. Basis: they overwhelm with numbers, pressure/agility. 2. Silvan Priestesses, Vestals, Healer. Basis: wide range, low health, water, earth, air, auras. 3. Rangers, Arbalesters, Veterans. Basis: lose speed upon upgrade, slowing arrows, move frequently. 4. Legionnaires, Guards, Imperial Legionnaires. Basis: large shield, endless defense. 5. Light Elementals, Luminaries, Elrat Warriors. Basis: either a ranged unit with maneuvering and high speed, or a raider. 6. Riders, Cuirassiers, Knights. Basis: not very fast, high defense. 7. Dragons, everything is as before. Conclusion: The troops have become faster

So, you want an empire? It's too cliché; you should use the available options to create something more original.

Yes, unfortunately, it is quite banal.

Well, we were talking about the Haven faction, and from the description of the race, I understood that it consists of humans, but according to the author, that's not entirely true. So, why not create something similar to a mix of elves, dwarves, and humans (taking a little from each and putting it into one faction)? However, this idea will be discarded because you can't change the established factions.

The author himself had this idea before.

I wrote that the dwarves shouldn't linger in the empire. Those who truly need an alliance are the elves.

The Alliance consists of the remnants of all races that were destroyed, including elves, dwarves, and humans.

Well, gnomes would be a good addition; we could keep the bear riders, retain the archers from the elves, and keep the peasants and knights from the humans. Then, we could distribute the creatures differently, like an enhanced 7th-level Ent, an enhanced 6th-level Griffin, and keep the gnomish priests as a 5th-level unit, or enhance the berserkers, upgrading them from 4th to 5th level.

Humans seem a bit too strong, with two units. It would be better to have the second tier be gnomish shieldbearers; they are a much more suitable candidate than those fat guys. Especially if griffons are also available for humans.
So, it would be:
Tier 1 - shields
Tier 2 - dancers/furies?
Tier 3 - elves
Tier 4 - bears
Tier 5 - knights
Tier 6 - griffons
Tier 7 - ents

Humans seem a bit too strong, with 2 units. It would be better to have dwarven shieldbearers as the second tier; they are a much more suitable choice than those fat guys. Especially if there are also human griffons.
So, it would be:
Tier 1 - shields
Tier 2 - dancers/furies?
Tier 3 - elves
Tier 4 - bears
Tier 5 - knights
Tier 6 - griffons
Tier 7 - ents

By the way, it's possible, but I don't know if the dark elves will interact with humans, and there are also mages

I would at least include mages as units, similar to how it is in Dark Messiah.
