yeah. Although I'm wondering if he will ever be as major as KnightDougal.

Corret me if I am wrong... but I thought one of the biggest strength of the Undead army, and the Bone/Shade Dragon, is that they are Undead.
With a high level Necromancer hero, Eternal Servitude, and most importantly, Rise Dead, their army could suffer very minimal lost (and even none at all) at the regular encounters, as the Rise Dead would recover and recycle any that was lost (including the lv 7).
This, couple with the Necromancy, would boost it number up much higher than other race's natural productions and losts from battle, which help overcome their stat's weakness.

Sorry Gnoll_Mage & Daystar, gotta let you down.  I'd be way more active if I had even a glimpse of hope that Nival actually cared about all the fan ideas. Plus, I kinda got over the forum addiction a few years ago. had to spend some time in rehab. 
Does anyone actually know a game whose development has been SERIOUSLY affected by its fans?

Ive never played a game that lasted more than 2 months so i dont really know how are they doing but i can imagine they could do well with proper play despite their pitiful army lineup.

Daystar, that can be considered negligible compared to the amount of suggestions and wishes by HoMM fans. HC is only a small part of the global HoMM community, and look at post count in "Altar of Wishes"!
Face it, Nival cares very little about what we all think. 
As a positive example, look at Epic Games (best known by their Gears of War and Unreal franchises) - even I had impact on Unreal Tournament 2004's development! A completely different attitude to the fans.

As far as I know, the developers are not primarily English speakers, but mostley French or Russian.
Also, they couldn't do everything we ask, or there would be 207 towns, 121 netural creatures, 18 different editors (map, creature, spell, and hero), whole cavalclades of new heroes, and a whole plethora of contradictions.

I hope they just name the new alternate upg for wight and wraith , reaper and the alternate for the bone and spectral dragon for ghost. Im not picky but there should seriously be something done with that harm touch ability. Maybe make em instantly kill creatures in a group, depending on how many they are, but that they only could use the ability 2 or 3 times (since it would make em overpowered and able to kill quite a few lvl 7 groups if unlimited, that would be lame!)

Plethora just means "A Lot"
There would be "a lot of contradictions."
Also, My thoughts for Names: Swapping: Whisp -> Wight/Wraith

a totally different necro line-up could be:
tier1 - scarab
tier2 - ghoul
tier3 - giant spider
tier4 - dark priest
tier5 - mummy
tier6 - death knight
tier7 - anubite

Look here - you might have to go to elrath.com to find a version compatible with most recent patch.
EDIT > On topic, the thing I wanted to do with the Necropolis line-up is swapping Lich and Vampire places.
