That certainly looks very nice - it's got a good tight structure, although I'd like to see the buildings to be larger and take up more room in the picture. The symmetry of the four elementals around the central axis is also still something I'd like to pursue, but that's just my oppinion - think it would make sense, though.
I'm having some other thoughts, but I think I'll buzz a bit on them before letting it out here.
come on Alc, lay off him, i bet his spent ages on it.
you have spent ages on it, havent you daystar?

It looks amazing, actually.

Oh, don't get me wrong, I think this is really impressive. I just wanted to provide some input as to how it could get even better.

actually, it was only a few days. alright, I did very little else but read this forum and watch BtVS, but it was only a few days.
Okay! Updates!
Master Town Image!
Standard Buildings
Marketplace + Recource Silo
Tavern
Dock
Blacksmith
Citadel
Capitol
Dwellings
Shines. They allow you to hire Manifestations.
Portals. They allow you to hire Elementals.
Temples. They allow you to hire Spirits.
Palm Tree Pyre. This allows you to hire Firebirds and Pheonixes.
Special Buildings
With these I'm not sure which tower is the mage guild.
The buildings infront add to the Confluxion ability, (allow combinations to be made)
Altars of Water, Air, Earth, and Fire. These reduce the cost of said elementals and their extenssions, and improve the visiting hero's primary abilities.
Fire = +1 Attack
Earth = +1 Defense
Water = +1 Spell Power
Air = +1 Knowledge
Only two out of four are allowed to be built.
And lastly, The Grail building, only available through a tear of Asha.
The Aurora Crystal is a fragment of the Crytals that Created the portal that led the planeswakers to Ashan. It is kept only in sacred places that these crystals are kept, incase they are needed again.

Sweet! I'm not too sure about the Palm thing, but apart from that, it looks great. I love the Portals, and I love the Altars even more. Have you considered making another six Altars - Altar of Storm, Plasma, Dust, Steam, Mud and Magma - which would be the buildings you tied to the dwellings to allow you to transform the normal elementals into the advanced ones?

That's kind of what I'm going for. The big temple is where you recruit the 4 basic spirits, and the two smaller are the two temples for upgraded spirits. I did not detail them much.
In Mythology a Pheonix would be reborn on a Palm Tree. I think...

That's actually interesting. Never read 1001 Nights, but if that's so, it does make sense!

wow, Daystar did good, real real good, but one thing, the Air and the Earth elementels altar look to similiar (in colour)
that also brings me onto my next question,
if the name of the Heroes 5 world is Ashan, then why are there Earth Elementals?
or it could have a mistake and it was supposed to be Stone or mud
either way, answer the Question

Excellent job, Daystar! I'd really love to see a Conflux town similar to that one in the game.

Those altars: If you mean the spheres, those are just stat improvers.
Also, the word "Earth" applies to the ground, not the planet. Most people wouldn't get it if it was implemented thus. You are, however, very intuitive. nice job.

Yes i am very intuitive (i hope its a good thing), well we could now start to do a campaign perhaps? it would be good(well might not be)

we actually have two towns, so far, my race based one (you know, efreets, dryads, slyphs) on page 6 and this one. i'm not really sure for campaign ideas, but the story of my conflux is on page 8. have a read and tell me what you think.
for the other one, we need to establish a homeland for these guys.
possiblities are:
1) Nariya: this homeland fits well with the idea of Japanese structure, its a twosplit island with bamboo trees on it, it is even placed in a similar place to Japan. (i'm using it for these reasons)
2) the shrouded south: if that is the case, the culture would have to change, as the Shrouded south doesn't, to my mind, appear japanese, more dark cultists and vicious raiders.
3) Chaga-dai: although it is on the stepes of the Khotan mountians, it would give us a similar cultural set up to the japanese, the mongols (ok, not that similar, but more similar than to the aztecs or to fuedal europe).
4) lost Paledra: this gives me a sense of a lost civilisation, which could be the conflux. it certianly gives us a sense of mystery, that would be alliend to the magic element of the conflux.
any one wishes to make more suggestions?

As far as I'm concerned, this is only a dream project. I don't think any of us has the tecnology or skills to really include this. The only exception would be if Nival actually developed a Town Editor, that would make it possibly for you to import your own Town Graphics and Creatures - however, I doubt even in that case, we would be able to do it.
There are probably some on the board who looks at it in another way, however.

We can of course send our suggestions to Nival, who develop the game for Ubisoft. As I said, there are different views on this, but my belief is that Nival have their own plans for the game, that are already made - and therefore, I don't think we'll have any luck to make them embrace our ideas - even though we might inspire them, if our ideas match their general plans. But that's just my belief.
