What is SGU? I don't understand. And why are you so fixated on Nagas?

I completely agree, it’s better to have fewer, but higher quality!:smile01: :smile02: Ideally, I think 8 is the right number. And how can we talk about balance when there are 20 factions in the game:confused:
No one is talking about 20 factions. Of course, since the third game, the idea has taken hold that the ideal number of factions is 8, but shouldn't the Heroes series, by creating new and new parts, evolve and break its own old records from part to part?
Quality – I agree with Alan – should undoubtedly be of the highest importance, but it is precisely because of the pursuit of ideals that the development of Heroes as a series suffers. There are no particular evolutionary leaps, no unusual new features for the game...
The focus on the initial balance constricts the developers' imagination like a loop, but all popular games have gained due respect and interest because people experimented with new ideas and technologies...

Therefore, I want to emphasize that more does not necessarily mean lower quality!
And it is quite possible to see 12 or more factions that are completely unique and attractive in their own way...:cool:

I completely agree about the Swamp! It's a great castle, but Gnolls and Lizardmen didn't have any special abilities.
As for Dark Mages, they already exist in the game as Necromancers. Read the story of Ashan; it explains everything.

these are already undead, not dark mages...
the Dark faction includes the Necromancers and Warlocks

P.S. They aren't mages in the true sense; they're just a popular, but unsuccessful, replacement.

the dark ones are the Nigonci and Warlocks

P.S. They are not mages in principle, they are just a popular, unsuccessful replacement.

Actually, Necromancers are dark mages because they are a race of necromancers and undead. Since this is a part of the mages who wanted to practice necromancy and had to separate from the League of Silver Cities, it can be called a race of dark mages.
P.S. I agree about the Nigonci - they are real dark mages.
Just leave the dark elves alone! :) What did they do to upset you?:)

Indeed. I don't particularly like them either, but why not? We're not racists here! By the way, their girls are quite attractive, especially with whips. :smile08:

Why wouldn't you like them? They're a normal race. Besides, they're quite interesting. Arandor is probably just upset about Nygon:D
Hmm... girls with whips, you say? That's the only thing that scares me... Either with whips or with knives - it's terrifying:D

I'm sorry there aren't any decent Dark Mages...
P.S. Necromancers are already a finished version of Dark Mages... you could say they're a different race, everything they have is dead, both heroes and creatures.

These girls are not well-made (visually), so they don't appeal to me, and they're not really my type.

Don't even mention it, they'll be whipping naughty boys for a long time, and they'll show the good ones something that will make their eyes pop out and their mouths water!:D
Dark Elves are the best!:) But Light Elves are also attractive girls!:)
Don't worry, I haven't forgotten about the Swamp. I'll start working on it soon! And Arandor wants to reclaim Nygon, that's why he doesn't like Dark Elves because they took its place in the Dungeon.
By the way, Arandor, for Nygon, you should invest in Chaos magic with a Lightning specialization. I was talking about a race with lightning, and it's perfect for lightning!
We need at least 10 races!:)

they have completely different magic... moreover, no one can know what suits them if you haven't seen the creatures I've pitted against them... and humans are far from being the dominant force there, although they do occupy a prominent position, or rather, some of them do (if that's even the right way to put it).
P.S. I'll create a thread soon and post all the creatures (with abilities, but without stats), because that's all I had planned, and besides, they need to be balanced, but I don't have time... and I'll hold a vote, and then we'll see.

Will there be no more add-ons for Heroes of Might and Magic V? I really enjoy Heroes V, and it will be boring without updates, expansions, or new campaigns!!! :(

I think there could be an unlimited number of factions, of course, as long as it doesn't negatively impact the graphics and other factors. After all, each faction has the right to exist, and it would be more interesting to play if there were many creatures – more variety. I haven't played the third game much, so I can't say much about the Swamp faction, but I really feel sorry for the Ifrits and Nagas, and also for the golden and royal dragons.

As far as I know, Tribes of the East will be the last official add-on released by Nival. However, if they came up with something worthwhile, it would be great.
