Question 1: The Hero should be like in Heroes V, I think, but with a few modifications. There should be differenences of attack, such as attacking hard and destroying a lot or attacking in a different way that deals less damage but has Bash or Fear or something. Perhaps this could be decided by your faction, eg, Inferno = Fear, Sylvan = Pacifism, etc.
Question 2: More than 400% if they are off the battlefeild. It's called "HEROES of bla bla bla" so they should matter.
Question 3: Perhaps commanders? But no sidekicks, it adds to the lonely aspect of the Heroes. We don't need Robin when we have Arantir.
Question 4: I think Magic needs to be reworked thouroughly, but it could take a while. I'll start a thread if I ever get around to it.
Question 5: Dynamic alliances but with the possibility to play without Diplomacy.
Question 6: I like option A quite a lot:
Hostile: Different from War how?
Unknown: Might be just called "Neutral" like a normal person.
Peace: At the end when all others are overthrown, lands are devided, or fought out?
Question 7: Towns no, but yes to the rest.
Question 9: Stacks should never change.
Question 10: By towns do you mean maximum controlled? There shouldn't be a limit. Do you mean different factions? There should never be a limit.
Question 11: 17 or more.
Question 12: One to several, but all should have at least 2 upgrades. And XP!
Question 13: 8 Schools. Because Namus demands it.
Question 14: I think there should be 6-7 spell levels. 5 for normal/multiplayer maps, plus an extra uber spell for Academy and Dungeon (and other magic place??) if you get the Grail. In the campaign there should be a level 7 spell.
Question 15: For spells? There should never be a limit.
Question 16: Shared Spells.
Question 17: I would like to see more done with Castleseige. You have a lot there, and I think there should be only some for every town (eg, Academy has casters and Traps, Dungeon has Traps and uscaleable walls (Adamantine or Hexed)
Question 18: LOTS OF SKILLS!!!!
Question 19: Variable skill levels, anywhere from 2 (basically an upgrade) to 6 (For the racial skill)
Question 20: I think the connections between skills should be somewhere between Heroes V and Heroes IV.
Question 21: I think Heroes are good with just one class.
Question 22: LOTS OF SKILLS!!!!
Question 23: No upkeep. Seriously.
Question 24: I think, except barring scripts/special circumstances/grail there should be one build a day.
Question 25: Armies should have one hero except special circumstances.
Question 26: I think hero recruitment should be based on the size of the Hero's kingdom. If the hero has a lot of castles and mines and things then there should be less limit.
Question 27: No.
Question 28: Hero specialties! But various ones.
Question 29: Lots of differences in spcialities, all over the place. Different factions should have different specialties, eg, Haven should focus on expansion of empire, where as Academy should focus on Magic, etc.
Question 30: City Hall Income should start with enough but not be enough by endgame.
Question 31: Random Map generator is very important, but knowing this community someone will make one on their own!
Question 32: Release without multiplayer is like latin without "-us endings"
Question 33: I'll buy the game, but I'll be annoyed to the point of protest if it don't be havin' ze map editorzz!
Question 34: The same about editing everything.
Question 35: Let fog of war die slowly.
Question 36: Same to mobile guards.
Question 37: And Line of Sight rules.
Question 38: I like going to the caravan thing, which could be captured and held for ransom.

Q1. Like in H4, but not so extreme, ie, hero starts out as about 4th level creature stats, at about level 5 at level 5, level 6 at level 10, etc.
Q2. I'd like to say 50-100% but that would make low levels essentially useless in late game, instead of at least being cannon fodder, so 400+%.
Q3. War machines.
Q4. Other. Like in H2-H5, but heroes are barred from learning certain spells (Haven hero blocked from learning Death Ripple for example), or can only learn with max. wisdom, and not all spells possible in all Mage Guilds.
Q5. Fixed allied.
Q6. Trade only by giving.
Q7. C, D (if in), E, F, H.
Q8. Don't know, never really thought about it.
Q9. Same as before.
Q10. 8 or more, though 10 or more would be even better.
Q11. At first liked 9-12, but now 17+, depends on my mood.
Q12. H3, H4, H5 mix. Two upgrades for normal creatures, but some exclusive creatures, which only get one upgrade each.
Q13. H5 style, based on elemental.
Q14. 5, it works well, why change it?
Q15. H4/5 style, based on effect. To explain further, MG schools are based on elements (earth, air, fire, water), whereas skill schools are based on effects (bless, curse, summon/heal, damage), so each town provides a few spells of a mage's skill school, but not too many.
Q16. B (eg, blind arrow towers), C (some towns, but not on adventure map), E.
Q17. A (though damage type depends on town), D, F, G.
Q18. Not sure.
Q19. Variable, but with only three mains and a few bonuses.

In my HoMM6 there is battle mode as i have said many times.
You can then kill heroes, and then they will not appear on that map anymore.
If you surrender, then you pay the enemy money (but they will maybe not let you flee). If you retreat you will come to nearest town without 1 tier 1 creature.
If you lose but is not killed then the enemy will get you to prison and you will have to free or buy them out (without artifacts and tier 1 creature).
If the enemy doesnt have a prison then you will be hireable in taverns for a large amount of price.
Price increases by 2% per heroes level.

Q43. How should morale work?
1. Creatures get morale after their turn, which enables them to move again instantly. (H1 - H3)
Q44. How should luck work?
