Is the magic resistance only for the hero or their entire army?

I thought that the hero skills wern't applied to his creatures. But maybe it is with some acceptions. I think the creatures provide the additional skills instead of the hero (e.g. the dwarf has magic resistance so maybe the allied troops have resistance as well?)
LIke attack skill is only applied to him. Have you noticed how most of the skills can't really be applied to creatures? I mean how do you teach estates to a sprite? Lol.

You better be joking
Quote: the hero must be in the town garrison for the Nobility skill
From a screenshot, it appeared that a hero must be made governor, but if the hero has to be in town, then it's a waste (a main hero w/ plenty of levels of development, stuck in a town?).
BTW, thanks for the info.
Edit: Wasn't Estates also supposed to improve with the level of the hero? From one preview, it said that Grandmaster was 1000/day + 10% per level (which seems awful high, but maybe ... ?)

You gotta admit, some of these spells are a bit crap if they don't share with the units. 100% MR on the hero is great.. if he's the lone unit. But if he's not, they can just cast their spells on someone else instead. You lose the benefit of resisting spells. That's not to say it's useless, just a lot less useful than it should be. The game seems to emphasize using heroes as combatants, which is not something I plan to do. I'll just have them cast spells and let my troops do the work. I'll have them around to pick up stuff of course. I hope their levels go up a lot quicker, because the skills they get only apply to themselves which is a LOT worse than it used to be, so to make up for that they need faster levels.

Thats stupid i mean isn't the hero supposed to teach everything he knows to his troops so he can confirm a won battle?
Maybe the creatures should be able to teach the hero abilities and maybe there should be an option to teach new skills to creatures or something.

Nope. Just heroes. It'd be too tough to work out stacking creatures of various experience levels.

Thanks for the corrections
I was worried that Nobility wouldn't be very useful with heroes stuck in town. Also, it's nice to see the subskills for it (Mining and Estates, in particular) improve over time, since battle skills will be a bigger factor with bigger armies (+20 attack for all your creatures isn't much when you have a few halflings, but that's a lot of extra damage from dozens of titans).
