Posts from NHF – new heroes for Heroes V 3.1. Auto-translated

Dead Spirit - After the hero escapes and is ransomed from the tavern, his stats increase by 1.5 times for a week.

Surprisingly, I like it. Of course, this style of gameplay should be suitable, with divisions, but online players usually do that anyway...

No, that's true, but a more frequent use will be to distract neutral creatures. For example, the player wants to capture a castle to learn new spells. It takes a long time, which slows down the pace. But there's a weak unit nearby. What to do? The army is given to the weak unit, the hero attacks the nearest neutral creature and runs away. Then, the hero is bought back in the tavern, and the game continues.

Why was Muazir banned?!
As far as I know, he has a passive ability... or not?!

Then, I suggest that Necromancers have a special ability similar to raising the dead in the 4th part. But instead of raising their own dead, he will resurrect enemy dead to join his army, with a corresponding upgrade and 20-30% of the original amount.

Okay, I'll try to suggest some special abilities:
1) Fire Barrier - The hero starts with an enhanced Fire Wall spell, and when he learns Pyromancy, the damage of the spell will be increased by 2.5 times.
2) Possessed - The demon has a "subjugating" voice, increasing his chance of recruiting creatures, and when this happens, they turn into corresponding demons.
3) Animal Lover - All animals under the hero's command receive +1 to attack and defense for every 2 levels of the hero. At the beginning of the game, it is randomly determined which animal will come to him each week.
4) Dead Spirit - After the hero escapes and is bought back from the tavern, his stats increase by 1.5 times for a week.
5) Battle Mage - Any artifact that gives the hero + to magic or knowledge is converted into + attack and defense, respectively.
6) Lord of the Stars - At the end of each week, the hero is offered to make the next week his race's week for a fee of gold and one of the resources.
7) Heretic - The hero mage has the ability to turn members of his race into demons for money; the stats of these demons are higher than those of ordinary ones, but they cannot open portals (since the hero does not have this skill) and cannot wear artifacts.
8) Mourner - Every time the heroine picks up blue gems, her attack and luck increase for the next battle.
9) Lord of the Storm - As the hero's level increases, the magic related to air or lightning increases in damage.
10) Bastard - A knight who cannot be a legitimate heir to the throne dedicates himself to military affairs; under his command, troops always have higher morale and attack than with others.
P.S. Let me know what you liked and what you didn't.

And what's the difference now?

I already said that it's forbidden to influence combat events, and if you change the stats of creatures, spells, and skills, it will change for everyone. Therefore, immediately a minus: 1, 3, 9.
2 - a copy of another Faction's ability
4 - no one will play with this hero (attacked with 3 peasants against any army on the map and fled, then transferred the creatures back and is ready for the final)
5 - too strong, the display of stats in such cases is also flawed
6 - there's no need to turn the hero into a building
7 - a mishmash
8 - pulled out of thin air
10 - this is just a stat increase, any new hero can have this, I would like something more interesting

Well, I created a special ability based on the "Rain of Silvanus" spell, for one of the elves.
4 - What if you make the ransom price fixed and high, to prevent abuse? Say, 15,000?
Well, I try to suggest special abilities, maybe something will appeal to someone.

I haven't encountered a function in the scripts that handles redemption.

1) Resurrected from Hell - The Knight immediately possesses well-developed Chaos magic and Fire Mastery skills; also, he learns Chaos spells, even if they are not available in the Tower of Magi.

3) Lord of the Abyss - All cave creatures and other 6th-level Inferno creatures, led by the hero, receive +1 to attack, defense, spell power, and knowledge for every 2 levels of the hero.
