Forge or Sea Town...
I must say that I like both ideas, but the problem with the Sea Town would be it can only be placed on water (or near water), while the Stronghold are placed almost anywere... The Forge Town will make too many heroes players angry because of the mechanical theme (but not bad creatures at all Lichie_Lich). I really don't know what to mean...

What about a town that can be placed both on land and sea? It can have walking and swimming units... and no mage guild - maybe something like Sea Training Guild instead!?

I kind of like the idea of a mech. town, (for lack of a better word) and I mean like a bunch of stuff made by Gnomes! Fancy Crossbows, flying machines etc. These I could understand in this type of setting, but not any "hi-tech" weapons and so on.

Okay...
Then which of the two will fit in best in addition to my five towns? (I may have asked this question before, but now I want a straight answer!)

Okay, time to sort this out. Technology does not belong in Heroes. If it is set in a "Swords and Sorcery" type of game, then it should stay that way. Imagine what would happen if Dungeons and Dragons became high-tech based! I know that you CAN make a futurestic campaign in D&D, but it can't be based on that. A Forge town wouldn't make the game technology-based, I know, but it wouldn't fit in. Imagine a robot at Level 1 with a defence skill of 20! At least that's what a robot would be like. Now, Lichie_Lich, I know I didn't read your post propoly, sorry, but mechanical automatons in a medeval (Excuse the spelling error) fantasy would be stupid. 3DO made a BIIIIIIIG mistake by calling golems "mechanical". They are NOT mechanical. They are MAGICAL. There IS a difference. If a Forge with REAL mechanics appears in HOMM 4's expansion, imagine what HOMM 5 would be like! Robots all over the place, and Archangels with pitiful swords trying to restore peace by attemping to destroy robots with lasers that could easily shoot through them! The answer to the question "Forge Town or not?" is NO! The Sea Town DOESN'T have to be included, but the Forge cannot if it uses technology.

Nah, 3do wouldn't try the Tech stuff again. The Golemn Dragon was very gutsy of them.
I'm starting to think that the expansion pack will just be more choices per level. Like instead of choosing between Medusa and Minotuar, it would be Medusa/Minotuar/Chimera for the expansion pack. At least, that would be my bet!

again...
Okay...lemme tell you this: my forge town is not a futuristic town!!! No cyborgs. No missiles. No lasers. Only some gnome with a blunderbuss and a Wiz of Oz-esque Tin man and Talos from Jason and the Argonauts!!! No technology!!! It's called "artificial" magic as opposed to "nature" magic!!! Come to think about it: Life vs. Death. Order vs. Chaos. Nature vs. ???? Artificial of course!!!
The story is about some gnomes that live in a faraway and isolated woodlands. They're so isolated that they started to develop their own "kingdom" and since they live in woodlands they are too small to chop down huge trees and they started to create golems made of tin, the tin men, and some lumbering machine that is the automatons. The tin men and automatons made the gnomes' woodwork easier. Then the gnomes also created some war machines to protect their woodlands. They build some cannons, flying machines, and even asked Hephaestus, the god of steelworks, to aid them. Hephaestus allow them to build Talos. The preserve community hated the gnomes that they burt lots of their woodlands and chopped too much trees. From there, the preserve town and the forge are always warring.
Yep that's my story. No forgotten alien technology. No futuristec crap. FULL STOP.

well, the 'necropolis ideas' thread is a long one, but there are a few nice ideas there, including sth that gave an idea for an expansion pack town. it's quite raw and maybe bit crazy, but here we go:
there was an idea to have a sword that would fight without a master. so.. there is a town without spells, what about a town without creatures?
sth like the army of that town would consist of spells that have their own life. i.e. the appearance of the masterless sword is sth like the frenzy spell in homm3 to me. i guess the attack skill of the spell-creature could depend on the spell power and the corresponding magic school skill of the hero, or sth like that..

Many posts to answer...
LordPaul and Saruman:
I really like the more choices per level idea! Never thought of it myself. I'll try to make the five old towns then... (goodbye expansion pack proposal  )
Lichie_Lich:
I know it's tempting to say Death vs. Life and Order vs. Chaos, but that's not the way it is! It goes like this (you probably already know it):
Chaos vs. Order and Life
Death vs. Life and Nature
Order vs. Nature and Chaos
Life vs. Chaos and Death
So Nature already has two opponents: Death and Order. But I really like the gnome town idea. Couln't it be the artificial might town (none magic) vs. the natural might town Stronghold?
Gerdash:
I don't think the idea will hold...

The more choices per level ...
May actually be something that they've implemented already in the base product.
Is it only me or is there not 1 or 2 creatures per town that would really fit in, in addition to those who already are there?
The percentage of neutrals seems very high at the moment, so I wouldn't be surprised at all.

Look, the way 3DO has things set up, adding a new town in an expansion pack looks like it would be impossible. So how about this idea?
1. Add a fifth level of creatures.
and/or
2. Add a bunch more neutrals. (ca. 40)
and/or
3. Add a third choice of creatures for each town.

Uh . . .
Lichs and Paladins are Hero types. Why would 3do make them creatures, too, when the creatures would be naturally weaker than the Heroes?
And I think some newbie thought of the extra creature idea a Looooonnnnggg time ago in some forgoten thread.

There aren't any Paladin and Lich Kings... Those are necromancers and lords.. NO paladins and Liches..

I didn't have time to find all the quotes, but here is a quote from Maranthea, the secondary producer of Heroes 4:
Quote:
Once you get advanced in two different primary skills you'll become one of the advanced classes. This allows you to easily identify what types of skills a hero has. An Archmage for example will have gotten fairly far in three or more schools of magic. That way you can expect Zippy the Archmage to have three types of magic. Crag Hack the Barbarian is going to just have Combat skills, but Mullich the Paladin is going to know both Tactics and Life Magic. [For each level Advancement,] there will be choices between three skills. One you already have, a new secondary skill (which would be related to one of the primary skills you have) and a new primary skill.
So there are Paladins, and there are Lichs in the game. Simply saying that you don't like something and it shouldn't be in the game doesn't mean it won't be in the game!!!!!

+1 creature per level towns...
Here's my proposal for the +1 per level expansion. First I tried to make the levels flyer/walker/shooter (according to what we already know will be in the towns), but then I dropped it, cause I only could add flyers and shooters for almost all the levels. So here are my original expansion pack proposal shortet down to four new creatures per town (not many new ideas ). Hope you like it anyway...
Academy:
Level 1: Gremlin (shooter) (hate imps) (water multiply)
Level 2: Dragon Slayer (walker) (hate dragons, minus the golem)
Level 3: Magic Elemental (teleporter) (all spell immunity)
Level 4: Sphinx (flyer) (no enemy retaliation) (50% curse attack)
Haven:
Level 1: Peasant (walker) (looks stupid, but can be upgraded to the cool woodsman  )
Level 2: Griffin (flyer) (unlimited retaliations)
Level 3: Pegasus (flyer) (magic damper)
Level 4: Silver Dragon (flyer) (nature, chaos, death and order spell immunity)
Preserve:
Level 1: Woodsman (shooter) (earns you one gold per day) (upgrades from bandit and peasant)
Level 2: Troll (walker) (regenerate)
Level 3: Wyvern (flyer) (50% poison attack)
Level 4: Dryad (walker) (summon obstacle) (summon dendroid) (not a visible part of the army on the adventure map)
Asylum:
Level 1: Harpy (flyer) (swooping attack)
Level 2: Liontaur (walker) (spellcaster) (regenerate)
Level 3: Manticore (flyer) (hate good dragons)
Level 4: Rust Dragon (flyer) (acid breath)
Necropolis:
Level 1: Ghoul (walker) (10% disease attack)
Level 2: Vampire (flyer) (resurrect troop members)
Level 3: Gorgon (walker) (10% death stare)
Level 4: Black Knight (walker) (hate champions) (first strike) (20% double damage)
Stronghold:
Level 1: Werewolf (walker) (10% charm and turn into werewolf attack)
Level 2: Chimera (flyer) (2+1 hex attack)
Level 3: Giant Spider (walker) (hate and binds flying creatures)
Level 4: Sand Wurm (walker) (20% earthquake) (can make battlefield hide)
I noticed some people were not familiar with the liontaur. So here it is:
