For Fafnir: 5 points. I almost fell off my chair laughing. And it would also be great if the police wouldn't let griffins take off, or impose a fine of 10,000 gold.

I would add a Dwarf faction.
If you think about it, you can come up with a lot of units.
1. Dwarf Warrior (take one from Heroes 3, for example).
2. Dwarf Archer (give him a crossbow and let him shoot with fire).
3. Dwarf on an Iron Dragon (from Heroes 4).
4. Dwarf Engineer (breaches walls) and shoots, for example, with a ballista, or put him on some kind of cannon.

And add a crafting or looting skill to the heroes, so that after each battle there is a chance to get an artifact or resources.

I would add the Dwarf race.
If you think about it, you could dig up a bunch of units.
1. Dwarf Warrior (take from 3 heroes, for example)
2. Dwarf Archer (give him some kind of crossbow and let him blast away)
3. Dwarf on an Iron Dragon (from 4 heroes)
4. Dwarf Engineer (attacks walls) well, and shoots from a ballista, for instance, or put him on some kind of artillery piece.

And add a crafting skill to the heroes, for example, or looting—like after every battle there's a chance to strip an artifact or resources.....
The Dwarf race is certainly an interesting idea, but different units are needed :) the main thing is that it doesn't turn into a copy of the Mountain Clans from Disciples 2...

It's just that there never were any gnomish units in the Heroes series. There were individual units (and I never understood why there were gnomes in the Elven Castle in Heroes of Might and Magic III. If you read the lore, as far as I remember, Elves and Dwarves weren't friends; only Legolas and Gimli hung out together. Maybe this is an isolated case, haha).

Dwarves have always stayed at home and crafted artifacts. But they aren't suited for war. :)

Have you read Tolkien? They fought, and quite fiercely! They were just a secretive bunch, quietly crafting artifacts, occasionally trading with humans and elves, but if there was any trouble, they never refused to participate!

there simply has never been a dwarf race as such in Heroes; there were individual units (and I've never understood why there are dwarves in the elven castle. In HoMM 3, if you read Tolkien, as far as I remember, Elves were not friendly with dwarves—only Legolas and Gimli hung out together; well, maybe they lost their bearings, it's a one-off case lol)
They weren't in Heroes, but I'm talking about Disciples 2—there is the "Mountain Clans" race there, which is basically almost entirely a dwarf castle, with the exception of a few giants and yetis... On the second point, I completely agree—dwarves in an elven castle are totally out of place (it's just that you can't call the Rampart in 3 purely elven)
P.S. I once read a book, I don't remember exactly whose, and there a dwarf and an elf were friends too, but that was also more of an exception to the rule...

They should just sit and drink beer instead of swinging axes. And what can they even do on their own? It would be better if they allied with the Sylvan faction. Or they could go to the Dungeon and become dark gnomes:)

well, if we're talking about it, the first decent fantasy was written by Tolkien (The Lord of the Rings), and all other fantasy works originated from there. It might seem boring at first, but if you get into it, you'll really enjoy it. I've read the book about four times, and now I'm downloading the audiobook of The Hobbit. It's like The Lord of the Rings, but it focuses on Frodo's uncle, Bilbo, when he was young. If you're interested, send me a private message. It's really cool to play Heroes of Might and Magic and listen to a fairy tale at the same time.

Dwarves in an Elven castle aren't for me; it's just nostalgia... ahhhh.

Well, if the dwarves in the elven castle are out of place, then what are the centaurs doing there?! Half-human, half-horse creatures have nothing to do with elves, but it would be boring without them, just like without dwarves.
And why not create a race of aliens, for example? It would be interesting to see how vampires drink green blood and curse about the incompatibility.

A similar idea was present in Heroes of Might and Magic III; the "forge" castle project failed (it featured a race of modern monsters with guns, automatic weapons, etc.). If you're interested, visit our forum dedicated to HoMM 3: /topic/184/ – more details can be found there.

What if, it would be cool, the fans got upset for no reason. Then only the Chinese remain. They could make a good faction. With samurai and kamikaze warriors. A samurai runs up to a zombie, cuts it down with a sword, and then commits seppuku. That would be cool.

Why not? It would be cool, the fans shouldn't have gotten so upset. Then, only the Chinese remain. They could make a good faction. With samurai and kamikaze warriors. A samurai runs up to a zombie, cuts it down with a sword, and then commits seppuku. That would be cool.
An Eastern faction was already presented in the "Creative Flow" thread, so there's no need for it:)

In short, none of my ideas appeal to you. But here's another one – a race of HOMELESS and POOR people. And don't laugh, they have a very well-developed hierarchy, by the way. :D Cool, a homeless person attacks with a bundle of spoiled food, and as a secondary effect, lowers the morale of the warrior.
