Limit of maximum number of Heroes you may recruit?

as i play this game again,
i thought waiting for 7 days for new hero to be available for hire was too long (i want all heroes units),
so i cheat away to make it possible to hire heroes whenever condition was met (cash+tavern, open slot/stack in town)
that quite easy to do.

while recruiting the heroes, i notice the selection of available heroes (ie the names/picture selection) for hire was getting narrower, at that time it occured in my mind that:
if i bought the all heroes in same categoty (might/magic -- male/female) then other player with the same town alignment won't able to hire the same type of heroes.

finaly i've hired the last available heroes in one category (you would know, since you'll no longer able to choose the portrait),
in my case all female priests heroes have been fully recruited, after that i went back to tavern i found that:

Theres a new batch of female priests that you could select for hire (you could choose different portrait, again).
this new batch female priest was using similar portrait as previous 'batch' that i already hired, but with different Names & Biography.
(goodbye, monopolizing-certain-type-of-heroes-thought)


this the names of new 'generic' female:
Alesha, Babette, Chiara, Dragana, Elea, Florina, Gertrude, Hermione, Klana, Karuna, Kaia, Lizolet, Micalya

i dub the names as 'generic' because i after what i've done for female priests,
i also do the same for female druids, female knights and female archers.
The result: all the new batch refer to the same new names & bios!
therefore in tavern there're now 4 diferent kind of female heroes who share the same names (& bios) that available for hire.

since it seem i stumbled upon bugs that developer hasn't fully foreseen, i choose not to continue what i've done.
well, this could be replicated normaly if you're able to withstand how long it takes with 1 hero/tavern/week.

That is not a bug but a gameplay necessity; it's been in the game since its original release. When you exhaust the entire hero pool for a class, new heroes are generated with names and bios picked out of a large pool of generic heroes, but reusing the standard portraits. I experienced it many times playing Elwin and Shaera unpatched, but it was handled better when updates were released.
