Race: 4 History: 4
Weak. Although thematically your race is pretty homogenous, the desert is already occupied to some extent by the Academy Mages. No geographical reference, nothing to link the creatures together story-wise, no picture as to how the faction is organized, you really don't get any clear picture of the role this faction plays in Ashan. I have failed to find the word "vergel" in the English dictionary
Creatures: 7
A decent line-up. Nothing remarkable.
Balance: 6
A rather weak faction.
Originality: 6
No spark
TOTAL: 27

Oasis
Race(4 + 3)=7
History(2 +3)=5
Creatures(4 +5 )=9
Balance(5 +5 )=10 interesting special skills, good variety
Originality=8
I like this faction actually.
This faction would look totally in place in the world of HOMM 1,2,3,4. But! The desert motif is already taken and there is no real unifying race, both of which reduces compatibility with HOMM5.
Plus the history and story are weak.
(minus one for no visual flag)
Total Score=38
How I graded these:
Race (Originality [1-5]+Compatibility with HOMM5 universe[1-5])
History (How interesting is it to me [1-5] +Compatibility with HOMM5 universe [1-5])
Creatures (Originality [1-5] +Internal Consistency [1-5])
Balance (are the special skills inventive [1-5] + Does it have a variety of flyers, shooters, walkers, spell-casters [1-5]
Originality (all the originality scores added up and divided by two. This means that creativity counts twice. [1-10])

Comments: A very promising idea had Academy not reverted to their desert roots. The history is too brief, and I’d like to learn more about the people, the history, and the heroes behind the town. The creatures are a very nice mix, with a few original creations. Some of the statistics have been copied and edited slightly, and the special abilities are in-tune with the game, meaning the balance is very good. Ultimately, there need to be more descriptions so the player can immerse his/herself in the town and its atmosphere.

You can wait for others to do it, but if they don't know how, you'll wait forever.
