heroes 7: 2 sides to all
we kinda know what heroes 6 is gonna look like... so here is heroes 7
heroes 7 is a Biracial game, i.e each faction has two races. now, people may say "hang on, how are we going to fit two races into 7 teirs"
thats the clever bit, we have two 6 teir line-ups for each faction. each topped with a powerful monster. the buildings are going to be as normal, but dwellings are going to be built seperately.
each faction has two sides to it.
haven
side 1: holy knights in armour, galavanting off to rescue damsels and kill tyrants.
teir 1: man at arms
teir 2: archer -> crossbowman
side 2: the peasants crusade, dark, supersition, witch hunts with prophets of doom.
teir 1: militia -> enforcer
teir 2: zealot -> flagelette
sylvan
side 1: spring and summer, elves, unicorns, when the forest is strongest when the forest comes alive.
teir 1: pixie -> sprite
teir 2: summer guard -> war dancer
side 2: autumn and winter, werewolves and other mammals protecting the forest in the bleak winter.
teir 1: hunting wolf -> white wolf
teir 2: winter guard -> sword kin
fortress:
side 1: inside the mountian. dwarves, as we all know, fire, dragons, etc.
teir 1: defender -> sheild guard
teir 2: spear weilder -> skirmisher
side 2: outside the mountian, ogres braving the blizzards and avalanches, warrior of the steppes.
teir 1: saber tooths -> razor fangs
teir 2: trail watchers -> mountian warrior
dungeon
side 1: dark elves, grand, stone underground with palaces, etc, as we all know them.
teir 1: scout -> assassin
teir 2: blood madien -> blood fury
side 2: troglodytes, mud and earth underground. dirt, giant worms, underground swamps.
teir 1: tunneler -> veteran tunneler
teir 2: blind fighters -> ritual warriors
nercopolis
side 1: rotting zombies, plague, stuff like that. sickness, scarabs and mummies.
side 2: purified dead, skeletons, ghosts, vampires.
inferno and academy i need help with.
what do you think?

I think it's a tad too early to think about heroes 7...
But what the heck.
Academy:
Side 1: ancient wizards who respect the old ways and prefer the arcane over technology
Side 2: alchemists, golem crafters, tech freaks etc who prefer technology over the arcane
Inferno:
Side 1: open demons: pit lords, imps, stuff like that. they just spring out of the portals and overwhelm the world in sheer might
Side 2: fell humans, cultists and demon worshippers who strongly believe that a new power is rising and that they'll need as much demon favour as they can get in the times to come

Sorry, but this sounds an awful lot like Heroes 4:
Inferno: The Demons from Hell or the Undead from the Underworld?
And we all now that that was a bad idea.

the side 1 is the one we all know. side 2 sounds alot like Chaos to me, but what the hell.

no, its not normal vs. renegades. its one side of things and the other. they are both the same town, but with completely unique units, two heroes with seperate racial skills, seperate building agendas, sperate town look, within the same town.

ok, i see you updated the main post, but one thing, if you have 7 factions, and 2 factions within those factions and 7 creature within each of those factions you have...... 98 creature + who knows how many neutrals, but if your willing to design them, it can be done

go with 7. Or possilby have only 6 in some towns, with powerful units, and 7 in others.
Also, for the demons, what about having "Good" demons.
Demons that want to preserve the world.
Quote: Don't you understand, I want to save this h**l-of-a place, not because I like it, but because I want to save me own skin!
Cyrus Crabb, Dinotopia
They realize that if the entire world burns, they will die with the planet, and they want to keep the world in existance. They don't mind rule, but they do not favor destruction. as such, they have several units with puppetry.

man i love Dinotopia, but to the real point, would it be wise to have "good" demons? + what would the level 7 units be ArchDevil and ArchBalrog?
