Idea for Homm 6
Hy all, I am a noob, I am new here.
Lvl 1 (from this game) counts as Lvl 1 in Homm
Lvl 2 (from this game) counts as a weaker Lvl 2 creature in Homm
Lvl 3 (from this game) counts as a stronger Lvl 2 creature in Homm
Lvl 4 (from this game) counts as a weaker Lvl 3 creature in Homm
Lvl 5 (from this game) counts as a stronger Lvl 3 creature in Homm
Lvl 6 (from this game) counts as a Lvl 4 creature in Homm
Lvl 7 (from this game) counts as a Lvl 5 creature in Homm
Lvl 8 (from this game) counts as a Lvl 6 creature in Homm
Lvl 9 (from this game) counts as a Lvl 7 creature in Homm
Factions:
Human Town: Bastion
Why Bastion isntead of Castle or Haven?
Becuse Bastion is a "Strong Fort", a Stronghold, etc. Its a Fort, and Fort suits well to humans. I find Haven unfitting, it means Hideout, which suits more to Rogue town.
Creatures:
Lvl 1: Peasant -> Settler > Militia
Lvl 2: Archer -> Longbowman -> Sharpshooter
Lvl 3: Crossbowman -> Sniper -> Marksman
Lvl 4: Swordsman -> Squire -> Knight
Lvl 5: Balista -> Catapult -> Fire Catapult
lvl 6: Griffin -> Battle Griffin -> War Griffin
Lvl 7: Priest -> Cleric -> Inquistor
Lvl 8: Cavailar -> Paladin -> Crusader
Lvl 9: Angel -> Archangel -> Cherub
Might hero: General
Magic hero: Cardianal
Racial Skill
General:
Battle Rage: At the controll of a General, Bastion creatures amy have Rage Level. If one of the creatures allies get killed, if one of the enemies staying in the wawy of the unit, if the unit kills an enemy... these situatins may incrace the Rage Level. High Rage Level gives the units bonus Attack and Moral.
Basic Battle Rage:
The Battle Rage may give +1 moral and +3 attack, but the bonus cannot be higher than that.
Advenced Battle Rage:
The Battle Rage may give +2 moral and +6 attack, but the bonus cannot be higher than that.
Expert Battle Rage:
The Battle Rage may give +3 moral and +12 attack, but the bonus cannot be higher than that.
Ultimate Battle Rage:
The Battle Rage may give +4 moral and +24 attack, but the bonus cannot be higher than that.
Battle Rage may not effect Griffins and Balistae!
Cardinal:
Prayer: The hero may pray (only once in a battle) to his/her God that she/he belives in. This may bring bonuses, but the hero will be unable to act for 3 turns.
Basic Prayer:
The Prayer gives +1 Luck, +1 Speed, +2 Attack and +2 Defense.
Advenced Prayer:
The Prayer gives +2 Luck, +2 Speed, +4 Attack and +4 Defense.
Expert Prayer:
The Prayer gives +3 Luck, +3 Speed, +8 Attack and +8 Defense.
Ultimate Prayer:
The Prayer gives +4 Luck, +4 Speed, +16 Attack and +16 Defense.
Factions:
Undead Town: Necropolis
Creatures:
Lvl 1: Skeleton -> Skeleton Warior > Skeleton Cavalry
Lvl 2: Cultist -> Stygma -> Fanatic (they are not undead)
Lvl 3: Zomibe -> Plauge Zombie -> Plauge Knight
Lvl 4: Mane -> Wraith -> Banshee
Lvl 5: Vampire -> Vampire Knight -> Vampire Paladin (I hate uqrading creatues to lords, kings, queens, etc.)
lvl 6: Necromancer (not undead) -> Adept -> Lich (undead mage)
Lvl 7: Black Knight -> Death Knight -> Horror Knight
Lvl 8: Reaper -> Soultaker -> Harvester
Lvl 9: Undead Cyclops -> Dread Cyclops -> Necros
Might hero: Vampire Lord
Magic hero: Archlich (only the strongest necromancer can become Lich, and if Lich a creature, then Necromancer cannot be a hero)
Insectoid Town: Hive
Creatures:
Lvl 1: Larvae -> Troglodyte > Infernal Troglodyte
Lvl 2: Serpent Fly -> Dragon Fly -> Wywern Fly (Poisonus Dragon Fly)
Lvl 3: Ant Cavalry -> Ant Warior -> Ant Commando (Commando = Elite Soldier) (this unit is a Troglodyte using Spear and riding a giant ant)
Lvl 4: Insect Knight -> Mantis Warior -> Mantis Legionarie (a Human-Sized Troglodyte with the head of Mantis and with a Sword and Green coloured armour made of Exoskeleton)
Lvl 5: Mantis -> Praying Mantis -> Slayer Mantis (this unit is a Griffin sized Mantis with deadly claws)
lvl 6: Hive Guard -> Hive Warior -> Hive Champion (Human Sized Troglodytes with Big, Deadly Battle Axes!)
Lvl 7: ???
Lvl 8: ???
Lvl 9: ???
Might hero: Commander
Magic hero: Hive Queen

The basic concept of a lot of creatures on every faction is nice. It might happen one day. Maybe in a far version of heroes we'll have more than 7 creatures on every faction...
The humans' creatures line up is okay. I wouldn't do the Knight a 4th level creature out of 9. Away too weak for something that has been a mighty hero so far. Maybe level 8, or minimum 7. I'm not crazy about war machines as creatures as well.
The racial skill should be more interesting than just status bonuses, that seem very overpowered for me. If the hero's entire army will have +3 speed or +4 morale, he won't have any problem to win.
I got the concept behind the towns' new names. I don't think haven is a very good name for the humans faction, and every kind of castle will be suitable here.

I call the town Fortress.
And all factions will have a cool, powerfull racial skill!

Can you suggest anything better name?
Castle, Fort and Citadell are buildings (an uqrades of fortification)
Haven is unfitting
Fortress fits well (in my option)
Oh... if Fortress is bad name, then it will be very hard to find a good name for the Human Town.

Nexus for Human town? You'v gotta be joking.
Human town is (mostly) a Military town, with Medieval Fort sytle. Fortress suits the town best.

nice work!
i like the way you are thinking about heroes6
but don't call the dark elves town "Dark forest", that should more unoriginal than when my friends tried to come up with an idea for a computer game.
[freaky flashback]
(four people, keri, josh, richard and gemma sitting round a table)
richard: ok, here is the game, we basically have a head wandering round a maze eating pills and getting beaten by ghosts. no-one has thought of that yet!
[flash back ends]
i really have to stop watching family guy.

Lvl 2: Drow Trooper -> Drow Raider -> Drow Warior (drow means dak elf)
Dragon Elfs?
Weird.
Lvl 3: Scout -> Assasin -> Ninja (why not? A Dark Efl ninja!)
No, its sounds childish and weird with Ninja for this kind of town.
Lvl 4: Lycantrophe -> Werewolf -> Ancient Werewolf
Good.
Lvl 5: Lizard Rider -> Lizard Raider -> Dark Raider
Good.
Lvl 6: Shadow Witch -> Black Witch -> Black Sorceress

What's wrong with the Dark Forrest? Shoud I call it Asylum instead???
Imperial City is the name of a city, not a faction...
Quote:
Lvl 2: Drow Trooper -> Drow Raider -> Drow Warior (drow means dak elf)
Dragon Elfs?
Weird.
One: I mean Dark Elves
Second: It's Elves and not Elfs.
Quote:
Lvl 3: Scout -> Assasin -> Ninja (why not? A Dark Efl ninja!)
No, its sounds childish and weird with Ninja for this kind of town.
What's wrong with the Ninja?
Hell Hydra: Its from WoG.

Lol, im so stupid i thougt that it meant "Dragon Elves".
You can say both elfs and elves, you say Wood Elfs for example.
But i think that Elves sounds better in the most cases.
I just thing "ninja" is boring and sounds... bad.
Imperial City was just an example, since when was "Dark Forest" a faction name?
You should take Asylum or something else.
The most things inm your H6 is very good.

I have trouble understanding why you would want to put Undead CYCLOPS, of all creatures, as the necros tier 9  What's wrong with the Ghost Dragons? Or the Wraiths? The addition of a non-undead fanatic to the army could work.
I don't like the balista unit in the human town, neither the idea of 6 archer units at tier 2 and 3. It just seems overdone. More logical would be 6 knight units at tier 3 and 4. Infantry is always more numerous than archers (at least with humans).
As for the name... Haven means a safe refuge, a sanctuary. So in that sense, it somewhat fits.
I can understand many people have trouble accepting the idea of Fortress for a human town name, since its still associated with H3 reptiles and H5 dwarves.
But there's indeed not much other options.
What of "Empire" ?
Here's a list of names I'd personally be ok with for various races:
Humans - Haven, Fortress, Empire
Elves - Sylvan, Rampart
Warlocks - Dungeon (monstertown)
Wizards - Tower, Fortress, Academy, Sky Fortress
Demons - Inferno, Demongate
Undead - Necropolis
Orcs - Stronghold
Reptiles - Fortress, Asylum, Refuge, Watergate, Temple
Dark elves - Asylum, Dome
