Speech
...I hope this hasn't been aforementioned, but I just thought that it might be interesting if heroes or perhaps even certain units could utter some commands or say something in battle...kinda like to rally the troops or something...doesn't really affect the game anyway, just thought it'de be cool...and then you could record your own voices and load it onto one of the heroes...
...hmm, now that I think of it, there's not realy any point to this...I hope I didn't just waste a good place for a new thread :/

that will took one programmer + one sound engineer + one producent assistant, i guess  And maybe one sound tester or regular one. Also it must be paid to recording studios, and you can't go with three or four voices (yep - you got about 126 heroes - and even if the speech artist is good - he can't simulate 20 or 30 different voices).
Also it will get repetitive - there will be no colour commentary, play by play will be limited and no public announcer at all saying the results after the combat. What about the crowds, chants and organ music
heh... just kiddin' of course - it happen that i'm workin on the speech/sound for our game - and it wasn't the best thing i wanted to do - but i have to...

I think a few sounds would add a nice touch. Something better than the way the Medusa's sqeeck!

I know I like it when the heroes shake their heads when the battle is going poorly. Adding in something where they scream "dammit, pick yourselves up and give em what for" might be cool. Or maybe just yell "Charge" or "Yeah" or something. Or the creatures uttering some cool phrases from time to time would be nice...along with their little body motions and movement noises.

i remember in a game that was called 'commandos' perhaps (it was long ago, but i hope that's what it was called). each character said sth different, and that sounded quite nice. there were fewer characters, though.

Well Well
It would be cool to have that feature but talking about development is way too much. They can do it but it will cost them a lot which will also slow down the development. I this case, it would be applied as a valid idea! 
BTW, great suggestion RMS!

...hey thanks
...yeah, you're probably right...maybe there's no need to actually record your own voices, but yeah, some dialogue would be kinda nice...not just stoic heroes on horseback watching their armires grunt at each other

My opinion:
Recording your own sound/voice: NO
Some charateristic sound/voice/speech for some heroes :YES
