Posts from A new race: Vampires.

But vampires can't compete with dragons, demons, or angels. Vampire: The Masquerade is a good game, but it has a different worldview and a different lore. Besides, what vampires would be on level 1, and which ones on level 7? And they all regenerate after an attack, and no one can retaliate! This is a huge imbalance.

Why not just make it so that everyone is countered immediately? Vampires up to level 4 could be made such that they are countered, as if they aren't quite fast enough yet to avoid being hit back. And while it's true that they should drain life, this value could be limited or, ultimately, the life-drain coefficient could be reduced; currently, it is 50% of the damage they deal. Here are the vampires by level:
1) 10%
2) 15%
3) 20%
4) 30%
5) 40%
6) 50%
7) 100%
Vampire shooters could be placed at levels 2 and 6, a Sorceress Vampire at level 5, and the rest would teleport or run. Some would attack with swords, some with teeth; daggers etc. could also be added.
So, what do you think of the idea?

Too monotonous. And as I already said, it contradicts the Might and Magic universe.

"Masquerade" and "Heroes" are different games. There's absolutely no point in combining them.
Otherwise, anyone could say: "Let's add the Protoss or Zerg race to "Heroes"! What's wrong with that?"

In my opinion, this is just as pointless a topic as the one about super-units. It should be closed... *a dramatic, inquisitorial smile*

The 4th heroes also contradict the Heroes universe. They play somehow!

Why make an elephant? People want to discuss and hope that someday this project will be implemented.
It's just that, in your opinion, the topic is pointless, but people are discussing it! What else is needed?

*ponders. What does Feanor and the inquisitorial smile have to do with it?*

The 4th option doesn't entirely contradict, but I can't imagine a separate city with vampires on board. You could just as easily create a race of dragons (from small swamp dragons to huge magical creatures in the style of Terry Pratchett). And why split existing castles when, if you're thinking of making a mod, it's best to come up with something new? Although, with a clever approach... I don't rule anything out.

Well, you could definitely make them that way, but you'd have to think about how to implement the life drain and attack. Seriously, can't anyone imagine a powerful vampire? Why is there always an urge to ban a topic for those who don't like it? We should sometimes just let ourselves dream!
P.S. Respect to Terry Pratchett!!!!

Personally, I only imagine Vampires as strong characters. I can't see them any other way. :D
You're asking why Vampires and not some other hero? Ask 10 random people what a gargoyle is; I doubt all of them will know what it is. Then ask them what a Vampire is: D This time, all 10 will definitely answer. :cool:

You have a low opinion of strangers.

Then you could create a second race of demons. The idea isn't very good; if you're going to come up with new races, they should be ones that haven't been seen before.

And if you ask, what is a dragon? I have difficulty imagining a 7th-level vampire capable of standing up to a dragon, hydra, archangel, or, say, an archdevil.

What if I ask, what is a dragon? I have trouble imagining a 7th-level vampire capable of fighting a dragon, hydra, archangel, or, say, an archdevil on equal terms.

But for some reason, I can easily imagine it. :)
You say you can't imagine a vampire fighting a dragon. Why can't a vampire kill a dragon? Is something stopping it? Aren't there some pathetic knights who didn't have supernatural powers that didn't kill dragons? How many fairy tales are there about that? Why can't a vampire, who is much stronger than any human, do it?:confused:

We are talking about the M&M universe. In theory, it would incinerate everything indiscriminately, just breathe fire and not even notice the killer. And knights cannot stand against a dragon one-on-one.

It depends on the vampire and the dragon in question. In general, I agree with Lord regarding ancient vampires; they can be quite powerful. Over many years of life, they can learn a vast number of magical spells and combat techniques.

Guys, the fact that I like vampires is well-known. And I ask you: please don't make fun of them. Both Vampires and Werewolves, in my opinion, should be neutral creatures, and rare and powerful ones at that, and they don't belong in Necropolis. And there's no need to create a separate race; just remove vampires from Necropolis, as they don't fit in.
