My Heroes V Proposal - Towns and Creatures Edition

Hello Everyone!

Sure, I have posted Heroes V Proposals before, but they were way too generic.

BUILDINGS AND TOWNS

Buildings are important to the wellbeing of each town or castle. The more towns you own, the better chance you have of winning the scenario. All towns have a certain radius of clear area that cuts into the shroud and fog of war (if enabled) on the map.

Common Buildings

Village Hall – Gives 500 gold/day
Town Hall – Gives 1000 gold/day
City Hall – Gives 1500 gold/day
Capitol (one only) – Gives 2500 gold/day
Statue – Gives an extra 250 gold/day
University - learn up to 4 new skills, either primary or secondary
Caravan – Transports armies between two selected towns at a high rate of movement each day
Thieves Guild - gives information on the enemy. More Thieves’ guilds mean more information is given
Marketplace - trade resources. More Marketplaces mean better trade rates.
Resource Silo – Marketplace upgrade. Gives +1 wood and +1 ore each day when built
Stockhouse – Resource Silo upgrade. Gives +1 crystal or gem or sulfur or mercury each day alternately
5 levels of mage guild - learn spells and buy spell books. A mage guild contains 3 level 1 spells, 3 level 2 spells, 2 level 3 spells, 2 level 4 spells and 1 level 5 spell
7 creature dwellings - both level 1's and 1 from levels 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6
Upgrades to creature dwellings where applicable
Enhancements to creature dwellings where applicable
Fort – Builds Level 1 walls and allows for level 1, 2, and 3 creature dwelling construction.
Citadel – Builds an Arrow Tower, Moat and Level 2 Walls. You need to build a citadel before you can build Level 4 or 5 Creature Dwellings.

Shop – Allows you to buy potions, items, and first aid tents
Artifact Merchants – Shop upgrade. Allow you to buy and sell artifacts

When a prison is built the defending army will take the attacking hero prisoner if the attacker loses, thus denying the allowing of recruiting that hero again until the owner of the town loses to another side in combat, in which the imprisoned hero will be freed and return to the original owner. Conversely, if an attacker wins in the siege battle and a hero leads the losing town defending side, then the defending hero gets imprisoned in his own town by the newcomers
Shipyard – Allows for production of boats. Only available if town faces a waterfront
Lighthouse – Shipyard upgrade. Makes ships travel longer each day over water. Only available if town faces a waterfront

Nice ideas!  I think Green Dragons should be with rampart though, since they are most commonly associated with forest/swamp.

I think its a bit unfair having the choice between a creature with an upgrade and a creature without with some of the towns.

Actually, this is a 'pure chaos' system which can mean you can either choose from two, do a branched or normal upgrade, or choose one and then upgrade. It allows for more gameplay and replay value.
