There is one major difference that separates HOMM and KB. HOMM AI operates at 2 levels - the map/kingdom and the battlefield while KB AI mainly focuses on the battlefield. You could argue that KB AI also operates on the map but it is mainly with wandering enemies/heroes having a patrol route/ alert radius.
As long as the developer does not bring another level of AI into KB, I think it will remain sufficiently different as opposed to HOMM.
