Don't be silly.

Dracoliches would never let anyone command them, much less work together in a stack greater than one.

Now, if you could have just one dracolich, and then when you "bought new creatures", it actually worked as though you were simply improving your existing dracolich...That would be awesome.

I'm still waiting for Sandro to make a dramatic return.  But I know it's never going to happen...
Dracolich sounds like a perfect fit for a boss battle in H6 then. Doesn't it?

This creature is probably a Sphinx.

Someone suggested that this might be a Lamassu or Sedu, which is actually not a bad guess.


As for the Haven glowing creatures, I'm not sure if they are to be taken literally. I hardly think the Paladins are riding glowing horses, so it might just illustrate some sort of skill or spell effect. I also have a hard time seing the glowing flying woman being a real unit (at least I HOPE it is not, because it would look extremely out of place!).

I do not know if I have said this before, I believe I have though.
I consider that flying glowy woman and the glowing Cavaliers to be the Guardian Angel ability and the unit under it's effect respectively.

That sounds very plausible to me.

speculations :

haven :
pikeman / crossbowmen / that ghostly flying unit?
cavalier / griffin / priest
angel

necropolis :
the new zombi / ghost / an archer I guess, I would say skeletons
lich / vampire / spider
sphinx?

inferno :
cerberus / succubus / flying unit? imps seem too weak
nightmare / efreet / pit lord
devil

academy :
golem / mage? / gargoyle?
rakshasa / genie / mage?
titan

new town :
I read some stuffs about nagas and garudas I think. an indian town?

for the 3 units per tier thing, I'm supposing there will be the choice between a walking melee attacker, a flying melee attacker and a ranged attacker

I find it unlikely to have two ranged core units in Haven. My guess will be something like:

Core: Sentinel / Marksman / Griffin
Elite: Swordsman type / Monk / Cavalier
Champion: Angel

There might be a new unit in place of the Swordsman-type unit, and that unit might swap place with the Griffin in the line-up. But then, the Monk might also be out for a new unit, so there are still a lot of open ends.

Isn't anybody suspecting there line-up might be 3core, 3elite and 2champion?
Like in Clash of Heroes where there were 8 units per faction.
Alternating between 3elites, 2 champions and 2elites, 3 champions.
Necro, Haven and Academy all had 3 champions.
Inferno and Sylvan both had only 2 champions but 3 elites.

No because it was said that each faction has 7 creatures : 3 cores, 3 elites and 1 champion.

The cavalry is a bit different this time around. Their steeds will have something special about them.

Hehe if it is anything like Clash of Heroes, they should deal full damage (ie no minimum damage, always maximum damage).  Why?  Cause in CoH they start at 'full power'.

My theory is the following.

First three towns will be : Haven, Inferno, Necropolis.
1st Expansion town : Academy
2nd Expansion Town : Naga, or Dragon Knight.

Though Sylvan might be in there somewhere.

You probably will not see Stronghold or Fortress.

Haven's core units will probably be. (If CoH is any indication that is.)
Pikemen, Archer, Swordman.
Champion will be
Cavelier, Priest, Griffin
Elite will most likely be
Angel.

Inferno core is.
Imp, Hellhound, ? (will check cause I forget lol)
Champion
Nightmare, Succubus, Pit fiend (? not sure on this one could be elite)
Elite will be
Devil (? not sure about this)

Necropolis core is
Zombie, Skeleton, Ebon Guard (yep that is what they were called in coh, not sure they will keep them though)
Champion
Ghost, Vampire, and Death Knight (I am pretty sure about this, could be Bone Dragon if Sphinx or spiderlady or whatever is elite)
Elite
Bone Dragon (with an actual useful ability!  No really!)
OR
Sphinx
OR
Spiderlady of some sort.

IF Academy..their core units are
Gremlin, Golem, Gargoyles
Champion
Mage, Djinn, Rak (not going to attempt to spell this)
Elite
Titan

IF Sylvan their cores are.
Blade(whatever their name is), Elvin Archers (whatever they choose to call them), and bears (yes bears)
Champion
Unicorn, Druid, and they had Deer but it may be Treant
Elite
Green Dragon of some sort (emerald, etc)

Now this is providing the 3, 3, 1 is accurate and not a head fake by Ubi.

Um, Mytical, we're getting 5 towns in Vanilla, not 3, we just don't know which the other 2 will be.

So this pretty much means that Haven will be very similar to Heroes 5 in terms of line-up?

Depends how you look at it. Most units are the ones we've always known either reimagined or with improved/different gameplay. H3, H4 and H5 had similar lineups though it didn't quite feel the same.

I have trouble seeing gremlins or imps as core units as they would seem weak compared to golems or cerberus.  in another hand, there seem to be skeletons, but it's not like zombies and wraiths were much stronger in H3.

Ah, sorry last I heard it was 3.  Well in Coh the five were : Haven, Academy, Inferno, Necropolis, and Sylvan.

@Elvin lol..that was basically the line up of CoH.

in that case there is no new town.

let's see, for sylvan...

sprite / hunter / wolf
unicorn / druid / pegasus
treant (a change from the usual dragon, which moreover is often too similar to the black dragon)

Not that I doubt your judgment but where was this quoted?
Maybe it was just wishful thinking on my part.
But now I really want to be 100% sure.

Edit: NM found it, sure is a pity though, would have liked top-tier variety as well as 8 creatures per faction.

Xhane posted the following comment on the Inferno FB item about Juggernaut:

"It does not really replace any previous creatures. You'll have lot of surprises towards the Inferno creatures. What I can tell you is that in the tier system we talked about already (core, elite, champion creatures); the Juggernaut is an elite creature."

If it doesn't replace any previous creatures in particular, that can only mean the whole Inferno lineup is entirely different from H5, right?
