he let them go!
i don't know why he did it, but he let them go. its probably part of his long coplicated plan.
personally, i don't think that nuetral towns should be just for the campaigns, it will make the single player games pointless.
how about the original set up, but nuetral towns can be in single player games, but have nuetral town HEROES (who don't have a racial skill) in the campaigns.
hmm, i guess Sylrath is a nice guy after all

not really. he's an evil unpredictable scheme, he may seem nice, but he is an unpredictable as the wind.
another possible faction (big one or small one, you decide)
the city-states of Challoth
Aka: The mercenaries
Associated colors: all the city-states have different colours.
Worship: they worship no dragon god in particular.
Country / kingdom: the city-states of Challoth
Capital city: each city state has an individual capital.
Key symbols: a gold coin.
Town Status: city-states

sorry, i think thats more along the lines of a seperate faction... i wasn't thinking straight!
lets try that again
the city-states of Challoth
Aka: The mercenaries
Associated colors: all the city-states have different colours.
Worship: they worship no dragon god in particular.
Country / kingdom: the city-states of Challoth
Capital city: each city state has an individual capital.
Key symbols: a gold coin.
Town Status: city-states
the city stats of Challoth is basically how italy was in the late medieval period, ie, the city states were at war with each other. many of the city states don't have their own armies, but with often have privately trained warriors and also rely on mercenaries. but now the city-states have stopped fighting so much, alot of these soldiers are finding work...elsewhere.
creatures
level 1
wardogs-> armoured dogs
level 2
arbelester-> master arbelester
level 3
swordsman-> duelist
level 4
sergeant-> captian

level 5
pegasi cavalry- pegasi kinghts
It sounds good, but in my opinion, in those mini-towns should be maximum of 4 creatures.
So, delete one you don't like and give a higher tier to one that in your opinion should be stronger.
I wasn't around, but I read my friends' replies and I want to say that I'll be glad to help you.
If you need any help, just ask.

Maybe something with African theme. For example an african inborn camp. That could be useful. Ground should be than thease red and brown sands you know what Iīm thinking, donīt you?

But African seems to constitute yet another human faction, which is really not what we need. I think finding a suitable race is the primary concern, when working on a new faction, and finding a theme is secondary.

I think it should be maximum 4...
They just won't add 9 more towns!
It's too much.
You are making this game into those neutral-towns game.
The whole game is about the original towns...

it certianly would be very interesting, but a different race from humans. it would be interesting to have Zulu culture as that is servely lacking from the fantasy world.
how i rate the ideas that i have come up with so far
halfings-good good
mercenaries- not so good

Very nice ideas! 
What I like about these bonuses is that every bonus fits the race!
Like pirates that move faster in the sea then normal player.
It's great, in my opinion!
