Indeed navigation will be easier as maps are thought in a way you don't need to rotate the map to see where you can/cannot go. You'll be able to rotate the map but it'll come back automatically to its original position before you move so you don't get lost underground.

Hello Guys,

On this Q&A, the topic is "Heroes". We have gathered all questions we had so far on Heroes and answered them.

You'll get futur Q&A's specific on spells, skills, etc. Also, we are working on a combat pure gameplay video, so that you get to see ingame images.

Transcript is here. We are trying to add subtitles right now on the video itself.

"Welcome Heroes!
I’m Julien Pirou, also Marzhin on the forums, Lead Level Designer on Heroes VI.
I’m here to answer some questions you asked on the forums, fansites and Might & Magic Facebook page.
Today, let’s talk about the “Heroes”.
Of course, you all know that you control different Heroes in the game.
In Campaign mode, you have 6 premade Heroes,
linked to the storyline: Duke Slava, Anton, Anastasia, Kiril, Sandor; and the sixth one which has not been revealed yet.
They each have a totally unique model and face that shows on the map.
When you complete a campaign, you unlock new Heroes.
There are other ways to unlock new Heroes. It’s up to you to find how!

In Multiplayer mode, you can use the premade Heroes and the Heroes you unlocked.
You can also create your own Hero, by selecting his or her class, gender, model, portrait, specialization and name.

In both modes, you can also recruit tavern Heroes as secondary Heroes.
They all wear helmets and are not customizable.
Their model is different depending on their gender and their class, and of course they have unique 2D portraits, specializations and names.

By now you may have guessed that Heroes specializations are still in the game and work exactly as it in Heroes 3 and 5, Meaning that each Hero has a unique skill.

Now let’s review Heroes mounts.
As you can see, each faction has its own mount, but basically they are all horses.
If you played Heroes V you may recognize the Hell Stallion the Inferno Hero is riding...

There are also special Heroes that are on foot.
You’ve already seen the Orc Kraal walking around in the Stronghold dev diary.

Now let’s tackle spoiler questions about the characters, so if you want to keep the surprise stop watching now!

One of the great fun of the Might & Magic series comes from the Heroes appearing in several games, thus becoming legendary Heroes. I’m sure you’ve heard of Crag Hack, Solmyr, Sandro, Lord Kilburn... and so on.

So, if you’ve played the previous games set in Ashan or the ones before, you can expect some familiar faces in Heroes 6.

Also, you might want to keep your eyes open for references to the ancient Might & Magic universe.

It’s all for now. I hope you learnt interesting pieces of information and there will be more info on Heroes coming at the end of February. See you soon for another video Q&A at the next turn."

If you have other questions related to this theme, ask them and we'll be pleased to answer them.

I think you're misunderstanding the purpose of Q&A videos. In the Q&A we'll answer as many questions as possible, as long as it doesn't overlap stuff that is part of the PR plan.
So if you are looking for big news and big announcements, you probably won't find it in the Q&A videos, but in the press releases. However if you want more details and additional info about things that have been hinted at or not elaborated upon yet, I (or whoever appears in future videos) will do our best to say as much as we can.
