Ubisoft's first answers to fan questions
Overall impression:
Ubisoft is brilliant because the selection of questions about Heroes 6 is excellent; none of them are directly related to the game itself, but rather are questions about the universe. The answers, however, are essentially just a rehash of the lore, such as mentioning one moon instead of three for the Necromancers.
* How much time passes between the Might & Magic Heroes V games? Like how much time passes in each game, how much time passes between the end of H5 and the beginning of Heroes of the Fallen, etc. How many years pass total between the beginning of H5 to the end of The Eastern Front?

The essential dates to remember, and what is really important in the big picture, is the time that passes between the end of the original H5 game (YSD 969) and the beginning of Dark Messiah (YSD 990). Those twenty years are the period in which Sareth, son of Queen Isabel and Kha-Beleth, who is the potential Dark Messiah, grows up.

* What happens to the Sylvan faction after their High King Alaron dies? Who takes charge of Irollan?

Findan, due to his exemplary conduct during Queen Isabel's War, is appointed regent. It is a safe choice, as he has never coveted the throne and his integrity is unquestioned. Thus, it will be up to him to decide how the next ruler and ruling clan will be selected. This is a separate episode in the history of Irollan.

* What are other Dark Elf Clans that exist besides Shadowbrand, Soulscar and Nightshard? And what are other Free Cities that exist besides Stonehelm?


- Further details of the Dark Elves are planned to be unveiled in future episodes, so we would rather not give out that information right now.
- Other notable Free Cities include Foster's Reach, Listmoor, Eridan Crossing, and Karthal. And there is another one that the community will learn more about over the coming months...

* Are there really 3 moons in Ashan? If so, which one is the Primordial Dragon Asha buried in? Can all 3 open the gate to the demon prison during eclipse?


Ashan has only a single moon where Asha lives to overlook her creation.
The moon is in fact a cocoon that Asha wove around herself to heal and rest after the Dragon Wars.
However, this moon, like ours, has several phases, and the people of Ashan consider that, like Asha, it has three main aspects, or ”faces”.
1) The face of Death (the Spider Queen), symbolized by the New Moon
2) The face of Life (the White Mother), symbolized by the Full Moon
3) The face of Destiny (the Blind Maiden), symbolized by the Changing Moon (waxing, waning, crescent, half, etc. - all the potentialities of existence)
As the moon is Asha’s realm, within Ashan’s fiery core is Urgash’s prison.
A Blood Moon Eclipse is a time when the planet Ashan blocks the sun's rays from striking the moon; Asha is thus ”eclipsed” by Urgash.

One Orc doesn't look like another. It's a large, black, iron-like thing. And the tormentor with its little legs looks funny, and they also overdid it with the chains for the Ghoul, what a cable guy. The rest look normal.

Be strong. Believe

They tried to please everyone: those who were waiting for an Orc unit from Heroes 5, and those who wanted a monster. As a result, they created something strange.

Welcome to the club.

I should note that the lore hasn't been completely reworked. It doesn't matter what the Necromancers think.

How do you explain the three moons in the castle? Is it a mass hallucination? Or are the Necromancers spreading a sheet over the castle, sometimes with a floral pattern, sometimes with a checkered pattern, and sometimes with three moons?

Probably, by the time of the "fifth" installment, they had moved from the islands and modernized somewhat. That is, there were Papuans on the islands, and then they turned into nomadic Mongols. Although, in the "One Khan, One Clan" mission, the Orcish Clans live on different islands.
Not at all. After their exile, the Orcs scattered to Paao, Ranaan, and the deserts. Time is not a factor here. Three large tribes – three Factions. In the seventh installment, there will be Bedouins. That's why, if requested, they could add a steppe faction in an add-on.
Well, try, try:3
If I ask alone, it will be like spitting into the sea, like throwing peas at a wall. But if the whole forum asks, the result will definitely be achieved. We may not have Lyabul, but we can write directly to the developers! Right? If this is needed by someone other than me, of course...

Personally, I'm looking forward to Heroes 6 to see how they connect Ashan with the old universe. Marzin promised that there would be a connection; I don't see any reason not to believe him.
Why connect Ashan, a completely new, ideologically fantasy world, with some kind of underdeveloped science fiction from the world of Heroes III?
One Orc doesn't look like another. It's a large, black, iron thing.
I agree! But in the fifth installment... the Orcs are true, free, strong, and independent.

I apologize, I just checked and couldn't find an exact release date for the game; everyone seems to have different information...
Does anyone know an approximate date, the most accurate one possible?

We may not have a direct line to the developers, but we can write to them directly! Right? If this is something that others besides me need, of course...
Yeah, they have nothing better to do than to deal with complaints from some unknown foreign forum:3

Logic suggests. There are steppe, island, and desert Orcs. We had steppe Orcs, now we have island Orcs, and what's next?

Yeah, they have nothing better to do than complain and copy from some unknown foreign forum, right:3
I don't understand your disbelief in this. It's in their best interest.

It's best to aim for March, as they initially mentioned March 11th, then adjusted it to the first quarter. I also saw a figure of spring 2011 somewhere, and in the latest video about the Orc faction, they wrote "coming 2011." So, we just have to wait and hope.

Is it in their best interest to follow the wishes of users on an unknown Heroes forum? And besides, open your eyes, no one anywhere is upset about the Orcs; everyone is happy with them, except for you.

It's not that unknown. At one time, Nival Interactive collaborated with the founders of the forum. Who knows, maybe the guys at Ubi have heard of it. Although, of course, I doubt they're scouring the internet for creative input from ordinary users. So, a "people's game" is unlikely. But then again, who knows?
