Expansion details

[Gatts]

I just hope that they will polish the warrior/palladin/mage skill set - I was very dissapointed by the skill selection and found at lest one quarter of the skills not very good chosen.

Would love to have less skills hard-set and having intead large variety of skills that would be optional (like in heroes of mm) - for instance I would not choose the warrior skill that reduces leadership for horsemen/ swordsmen, when I want to hire undead army only ... Or I would not want the mage skill that improves ORDER Magic (ressurections, armor of gods) - when these are not working on undead - which I have in my army...

If this was designed to make player attached towards good units/spells - it didn't work, still it took a lot of fun from the game (I had many unspent runes when I was level 30 with vampire army) - but still I would love some level-up fun...

Still, it's better than Heroes 5.

Cool, this sounds very good.
Just small note : in Homm 3 WOG were henchmen very great improvement (not only they helped in battle, but gave much more fun of each battle) - maybe it could be possible to create / alter the game in this way - also there could be different henchmen:
1. Warrior - his bonus to your army would be minimal, or none, but they would be active on battle field (physically)
2. Supporter - He would be like the spirits - not directly (physicaly) present -but would know few spells and will have it's onw mana
3. General - like we know the "wifes" - he would not be on the battlefield at all - but would give overall bonuses (to magic / spirit~dragon / army, skills...)
