I'm curious... will there be 14 slots in the hero's army? How do they imagine constantly buying different units? They will most likely choose the best one and use only one upgrade.
I liked the screenshot with the mage's alternate upgrade!)))
And under the baldaquin, he has a bundle of scrolls tied together with a fuse cord!)))))
No, it says that you need to build the upgrade for the building where you purchase this unit, and then 2 upgrades will be available at once, and you can upgrade creatures to either one upgrade or the other.
I remember when other alternate versions for other Factions were released, and before I saw the Necromancer ones, I saw that it looked bad, and I saw people talking about it. I understood that the alternate versions of these Factions were not very good, but I looked at all of this with a smile. But when it came to my favorite Faction... I understood how people who discussed the alternate versions of their favorite Factions felt...
What is this, Necromancer?! What the...? Developers??!!
Who does something like this?! Have you ever seen pink death?! There should be no such color in this Faction at all!!! What are those pink eyes on the Dragon?! What is that piece of metal in the zombie's hand?! Couldn't they come up with something better?! Ghosts and skeletons turned out well, but why give skeletons so little HP?! Liches are generally okay, but again, there is a pink tint in their clothes. I don't even want to talk about the Vampires, I'd better stay silent, or I'll start swearing...
These are just ordinary emo-necromancers; the thing is that Ubisoft decided to make more money from Heroes 5, and to get a larger audience interested, they made alternate upgrades that reflect the culture of different people, different trends.
Here:
Humans - I don't even know what to call them, but they turned out well.
Elves - in blue :(, well, you get the idea :(
Dark Elves - masochists
Inferno - demons from a concentration camp
Necromancer - emo
But the mage looks better, :)

Interesting... who will they turn into an anime-style faction? Although, this is definitely no longer my favorite faction (they've already given them alternate skins)...

Anime characters? You misunderstood me; anime characters are one thing, and emo and others are another. I think dwarves will be Scottish. And besides, how do you imagine a race of anime characters? :D

I can't imagine that's why I asked, and dwarves in the basic version are already a mix of Scots and Slavs (bear riders)...

Well, they look more like Celts or Scandinavians, and when I mentioned Scots, I meant the dwarves in Scottish kilts :D :D

To be honest, I practically couldn't care less how they look. I've said more than once that I don't see any poorly made units in the original (and don't give me examples, I've stated my IMHO). The alts that have been posted may very well undergo changes (stretching pink textures over purple ones is a matter of days), and in principle I like all of them (again, don't address your opinions to me). What worries me much more is how all of this will play and where the balance will end up. As it happens, almost simultaneously with the Necro alt, info about invisibility came out (which sparked a lot of debate, unfortunately not on our forum). And on the forum where people actually play (Nival for example), they dropped the Necros and wrote over a hundred posts about invisibility in a single day (on our forum, we'd be lucky to get five posts for the entire section in a month). So, unfortunately, I've been convinced once again that people here don't PLAY the fifth game; they apparently watch it, maybe do something else with it, but there's no actual GAME... With that, I take my leave, there's nothing for me to write here.

Guys, maybe I'm just dumb, but I don't understand what the difference is between an alt upgrade and a bone dragon, other than the color?

It just so happened that almost simultaneously with the Necromancer alternate upgrade, information about invisibility appeared (which caused a lot of controversy, unfortunately not on our forum). And on the forum where people play (as an example, Nival), they stopped discussing Necromancers and, within 24 hours, posted over a hundred posts about invisibility.
It's still not entirely clear how it works. It's clear about the 3 turns, but will they become visible if they attack any unit? Or, if a stalker is right next to an archer, can the archer shoot? You can guess that a saboteur is hiding somewhere nearby. But can you attack it by targeting adjacent cells? Will magic spells cast on the surface affect them? Will the effect of enemy area-of-effect spells spread to invisible stalkers? Without answers to these questions, it is impossible to assess the real power of this ability, although it is already clear that it is quite useful against lower-level neutral creatures.
Honestly, I'm practically indifferent to how anyone looks.
Tactical diversity is really much more important, if it actually exists and the upgrades are approximately equivalent.
By the way, I found the Necromancer alternate upgrade very interesting. We keep the old messengers and skeletons, and the rest can be mixed up quite a bit (that's my first impression). The Lich basically turns into a tough melee fighter; the stats for level 5 are simply great. The speed is low, but he's a caster.
Guys, maybe I'm stupid, but I don't understand what the alternate upgrade differs from the bone dragon, other than the color.

More damage, less HP, 1000 cheaper, instead of Curse on hit - Sorrow Strike

In my opinion, the Sylvan faction was done well, the Dungeon and Necropolis factions are so-so, and the Inferno faction isn't very good. I'm curious about what the Academy, Haven, and Fortress factions will be like.

The characteristics are clear; it's just that, apart from the eye color, it looks identical to the non-grayed version.
By the way, it's interesting that it was announced that you can retrain one upgrade into another. How will the price difference be implemented? I mean, if I convert from a more expensive one to a cheaper one.

Well, we expected a glamorous Dungeon faction, but we got glamorous Necropolis creatures instead. We weren't too far off (:

And what did I and others say? After the (Dark) Elves-transvestites, this is all that could be expected from the developers.... :mad: :cool:

Good question, but regreymading isn't free; you'll have to pay the amount beforehand.
Interesting, what will the Mages, Humans, and Dwarves be like?
Well, the alternative humans are renegades.
And we have to wait for the Mages, Dwarves, and Orcs.

well, if the pacifist elves became ruthless killers, why can’t the Necropolis become more glamorous? I think skeletons with a daisy on their helmets would be awesome.

1. How many participants are there? What's the attendance rate?
2. Why purple? It will look like the Dungeon faction after death
