Posts from The “Mischievous Hands” set.

That is to say, they are representatives of specific cities? And it doesn't matter that heroes from such a city will have representatives of five(!) factions in their army, which will lower the troops' morale by 3 units?

No - heroes of this city must have Advanced Leadership.

No - creatures of any city can appear.

Giants in dungeons? Harsh :D Maybe it would be interesting to make this faction even more "high-tech." As for the dark gnomes that follow them, I think it's a dubious idea.

8.Green Dragon - Brown Dragon - Black Dragon

But isn't the green dragon the prerogative of the Rampart?

Someone suggested the dark dwarves to me.

Giants are allies of the dwarves.

I was drawing inspiration from Heroes 2 and 4, as well as the concept of the Moon Temple city (removed from DF2), to create the Nigons.


And how do the Nigons and the predecessors of the Conflux, Kremlin compare? How about Miau-city?

Personally, I don't think the old cities need to be reworked (at least not so drastically; maybe just change a few things). The idea with Upper Nigon is okay, as is the idea with the dwarves (not the dark ones). The Japanese style from Heroes 6 is definitely not needed, unless they are radically redesigned, but leaving them in their almost unchanged form...

Giants are allies of the dwarves.

I mean, giants are supposed to be big, and dungeons are supposed to be narrow in many places. They'll get stuck and die of hunger.

In my personal opinion, there is no need to redo the old cities (at least not so drastically, maybe just change a few things). The idea with Upper Nigon is good, as is the idea with the dwarves (not the dark ones). Japanese-style creatures like in Heroes 6 are definitely not needed, unless they are radically redesigned, but leaving them in their almost unchanged form...

The old cities need to be changed!
Fairies in the Conflux? That's terrible! They should live with the Elves!
Cyclops on level 6? That's nonsense!

Fairies in the Conflux? That's terrible! They should live with the Elves!

Well, the Conflux is indeed not the most successful city in terms of population. I am even more concerned about the imbalance of elementals in it. And dwarves really could claim to live separately from all this Fortress faction. But I don't see anything wrong with cyclops on the sixth level.

Well, Conflux isn't exactly the most populous city. What bothers me even more is the imbalance in its elementals. And dwarves really could claim the right to live separately from all this Fortress faction. But I don't see anything wrong with cyclops on level 6.

Conflux should be a city entirely composed of creatures from the Planes.

Dwarves and Elves together – first :D, then :smile34:

Cyclops are much more powerful than these "Monsters" or "Behemoths"!

And who has the mischievous hands – the one who came up with all this and typed it into the keyboard, or the one who will be writing the mod?

It seems that whoever came up with this and typed it all on the keyboard, or whoever will be writing the mod, has mischievous hands.

I think it was someone who came up with this while high on something or during a nervous breakdown.
"A devil climbed onto the ceiling,
don't be afraid, young man -
it's delirium tremens
that came to visit us."
You can't sort out all this textual nonsense, let alone create mods.:smile48:
