Ubisoft could showcase battles with spells and abilities, but for some reason, they aren't doing that. Perhaps they'll release a demo, or they'll continue their policy of silence and releasing a bunch of images once a week!

By the way, I realized what Black Hole is doing! They are meticulously painting the Archangel Michael figurine, which will be included in the collector's edition :D.
Cool programmers, indeed. Instead of fulfilling their direct responsibilities, they are painting a figurine :D.

These cool programmers are doing something else, though. Instead of fulfilling their direct responsibilities, they are painting a statuette.

In my opinion, it's a useful and noble endeavor. Warhammer enthusiasts spend a lot of time and money on this, and nothing comes of it.

But the game will still be somewhat raw when it's released, no matter how much the developers work on it. No group of testers can catch all the bugs; only players, after playing and discussing it on forums, can.

After that, everything depends on the developers. If they want to invest money in an add-on, the game will be playable; if not, then it won't.

A cash cow won't be discarded until it stops generating revenue. Discussions are likely already underway about what new things to mess up in the expansion.

Besides, the target audience is still unhappy that not all the castles from parts 3-5 made it into the sixth installment. I won't speculate, but someone from the old cast will definitely appear in one of the subsequent expansions. IMHO, it's time to bring back the Wizards.

I think the first expansion will feature elves (otherwise, the fans will tear us apart), and the second one will feature mages. Although, in my humble opinion, both should have been made at once, and Inferno should have been saved for last.

Heroes aren't heroes without mages and elves, and it doesn't matter if they are light or dark; each one is interesting in its own way.

Yes, it would be bad without elves; we'll have to wait until the expansion. I really want to see the six-legged elves.

I don't know about the "presence effect" when there are seven creatures on one side of the battlefield and seven on the other, symbolically representing an army. After all, the number next to the model is essentially just a modifier for the damage calculation formula, nothing more.
I don't know about you, but my monitor isn't big enough to display 1,000 skeletons, 500 zombies and ghosts, and the rest, on one side, and a couple of thousand peasants on the other:smile04:

I don't know about you, but my monitor isn't big enough to comfortably display even 1,000 skeletons, 500 zombies and ghosts, and the rest, and on the other hand, a couple of thousand peasants:smile04:
In RTS games, one unit is usually one unit, although the count there isn't in the thousands. The "sense of presence" in Heroes is more about the overall fantasy atmosphere of the game, but it depends on many factors, not just how the creature models are drawn.

It depends on the game.

Most likely, they will add 2 factions in the add-on. It would be more profitable to release a couple of add-ons and start working on the next part of the game so that it doesn't get too repetitive. They could include the remaining factions in these add-ons... although they might also prolong the development process :(

It is more profitable to extend the enjoyment, as each add-on, even if it doesn't offer much new, will cost as much as a full game. Take, for example, "Crossworlds": due to clever advertising, it seemed like a truly significant add-on with new campaigns, units, and gameplay elements. Everyone thought so and bought the game. But it turned out to be just a patch for the previous game, essentially. A high-quality one, but still a patch.

Who knows for sure. They might just keep pumping out various DLCs, especially without focusing on major expansions. A couple of maps, a campaign, new artifacts; then three more maps, a new faction, a campaign... And so on.

Hopefully, it won't be DLC; it would be better to see the missing factions in an expansion pack. But what do you think – will all the original factions from the fifth installment be included, or will some castle be left out?
