A private audience with the dwarf king. I like it too.

I think the first option would also look good if it were edited for the recruitment scene. The screenshots show not the final versions, but only the basic backgrounds. In any case, each of them needs a little polishing.

The first option is for a siege, and the second one has flags! It's like comparing a truck and a car... ;)

The voting for the base image for the Fortress faction background has ended.
Option #2 was chosen. Thank you all!

New wolf model.

New model of wolves.

Did you pull it out of WarCraft?!

Did you take this from WarCraft?!

It's from World of Warcraft.

Here are 2 more models:

Water Elementals

Fire Elementals

They look really cool in the picture, are there any files available for download?

Not yet. I'm currently working on the mod at an accelerated pace, finishing the animations and meshes for the neutral units. They've been waiting for their moment for over 2 months.

So, the wait won't be long :)

Voting for the replacement of the manticore model.

I voted for the cobra, but I'll just add that it won't be possible to keep all the original stats – you wouldn't want to leave it with flight, would you?

I voted for the cobra, but I'll just note that it won't be possible to keep the stats completely the same – you wouldn't want to leave her with flight.

Well, the point of flight is that walls are no obstacle for her, and what I saw in the animation of her movement underground, i.e., below the walls, is very similar... but the ability name will have to be changed... for consistency!

I've already thought about this. Initially, I created an animation for it to move on the ground, and only later did I remember that the creature is flying :D

As comrade Psatkha noted,

the point of flying is that walls are no obstacle for it.

I thought the same way. In general, I had to redo it. As a result, the creature bypasses obstacles thanks to the animation of movement underground, so the ability "flying creature" is appropriate from a mechanical point of view.

but the ability name will have to be changed... for the sake of logic!

This is also a dilemma. On the one hand, the ability "flying creature" has been called that since the first version of the game. Although, remembering my first impressions, it seemed illogical to me that this ability was available to vampires and devils, although they essentially teleport, and the description says "fly"... but I got used to it over time.

On the other hand, it would be much more logical to change the name to something that describes this ability more accurately from a mechanical point of view. Something like "free movement" or "unobstructed movement".

It seems that tailoring a general ability to a specific creature is not correct, but it would look appropriate for all other creatures that have this ability.

Perhaps it really is worth changing the name of the ability, if, of course, the cobra is chosen as a result of the vote.
In general, I would like to hear opinions on this.

"unimpeded movement".

"unimpeded movement" - simply great! :smile54:

Well, if (although I highly doubt it) the snake doesn't appeal to people, it will find a place in NCF! ;)

P.S. I sent a link to the video to StetNoel and several other comrades from the now-defunct Elrath, Nival, AG forums - they were shocked, to say the least! So, it's too early to predict the demise of Heroes 5! With new creatures (NCF) and heroes (NHF) - considering the new achievements in the visual aspect, everything is just beginning! :smile13:

You can simply use "ignores obstacles." There's no need to specifically choose nouns.
