I'm interested in the SoD description on one of my countries internet shop muve.pl:
"Konieczny zakup dla fanów Heroes VI: Cienie Mroku to fantastyczne zakonczenie Heroes VI, bez którego nie może obejść się żadna kolekcja gier."
It translates like this:
"A must have buy for fans, H6:SoD is a fantastic end for H6, without which any game collection is complete."
So the description implies that SoD is the last entry in Heroes 6 line 
Oh and the cost is 70 zl so it's about 19 euros...
Although Elvin said that is sales goes well there may be a second expansion...
Anyways, I really hope SoD it's the end of HVI...and Ubi listen to the community for HVII and don't mess things.

Either suits me fine realy. I'd love to see more factions for Heroes VI. I'd also love a fresh start.

'New world' fresh, 'new game mechanics' fresh or 'less buggy' fresh?

Possible historic settings:
The Wars of Fire
Featuring: Ylath-worshipping Haven, Inferno, Sylvan, Academy, Fortress, Sanctuary.
Story's based on the Wars of Fire. Demons tear down the Angels' Sky Cities and Sar-Elam sacrifices himself to banish the Demons to Sheogh. After the war, Angels start influencing the young Brian Falcon and the Empire starts worshipping Elrath. Free Cities are established in response to that. Sar-Shazzar gives The Prophecy of the Dark Messiah.
First eclipse, war of the Blood Moon
Featuring: Haven, Inferno, Sylvan, Academy, Fortress, Sanctuary, Stronghold.
Demons invade and the Wizard's create Orcs to fight them. After the war, the Orcs start getting replaced by Beastmen and the Orcs rebel, achieving freedom. The Holy Falcon Empire starts 30 years of crusade to kill the Orcs but then Shalassa sinks their fleet. Constructs start replacing Beastmen.
War of the Bitter Ashes
Featuring: Haven, Inferno, Sylvan, Academy, Fortress, Sanctuary, Dungeon, Stronghold.
Elven Queen Tuidhana declares independence from King Arniel. The Holy Empire invades her dominion. Arniel sends reinforcements but after they defeat the Empire, Arniel wants his people back and Tuidhana is forced to seek aid with the Faceless, leading to the creation of the Dark elves. Then demons incinerate Brythigga, Arniel blames Tuidhana and she dies a martyr. Dark elves then fight dwarves, lose, and are forced to live within the ancient realm of the Faceless: Ygg-Chall.
Third eclipse
Featuring: Haven, Inferno, Sylvan, Academy, Fortress, Sanctuary, Dungeon, Necropolis, Stronghold, Free City of Karthal.
Civil war between Wizards and Necromancers. Sylvan helps the Wizards. Necromancers are driven to Heresh. After the war, the Crimson Wizards and their Beastmen leave Al-shazzar to create the free city of Karthal. Then the War of the Broken Staff happens and the Wizards make some kind of huge explosion that destroys both the Undead and the enviroment.
Fifth eclipse, War of the Last Alliance
Featuring: Haven, Inferno, Sylvan, Academy, Fortress, Sanctuary, Dungeon, Necropolis, Sahaar Stronghold, Free City of Karthal.
Demons are fought by Knights, Wizards and Rangers in the desers of Sahaar. Naga and Dwarves don't car. Orcs, Dark Elves and Necromancers have "unsettled grudges with the forces of the Alliance". Demons lose and portal into Sheogh. Emperor Alexei IV, of the Griffin, charges into the portal with his Knights. Alaron, Elf king, and Cyrus, Supreme Archmage, stays behind. Knights die but Dragon Knight Tieru rescues alexeis soul and makes it into the Heart of the Griffin.
I think Eclipse 5 and Wars of Fire are the most interesting just because awesome Ylath-worshipping Haven. Probably to many factions in Eclipse 5 though.
I'd love a new continent though. Colonial Haven, anyone?

I would prefer a less "Global topic"
Something like Armageddon's blade campaign. Not directly connected but going deep into the individual factions.

But Ubi likes a lot big stories
I would be really really surprised if they don't bring a global campaign in Heroes VII, at least on the base game.
For expansions would be great to have more independent and individual campaigns...but it's too soon to think on campaigns for an unannounced game

I think it's time for Inferno to be left out of the next game. It's an overused faction at this point. I'd like a new big bad. Same thing with fanatical Knights.

I rather agree with that. Though for different reasons.
I highly doubt that a new installment will feature all 9 factions, though we may ever dream. So I say, start with the 6 Classics. Which in current terms would correspond to Haven, Sylvan, Academy, Dungeon, Necropolis and Stronghold.

I would like to see a 2nd expansion with Sylvan/Academy or both. Though I suppose, because one year was wasted on H6 bug-fixing, time works against it. I think it's too early for Heroes VII not to mention the fact that we will get another bug-fest, I'm sure of it...
And there's the issue with potential plot. Not a single story from those presented by Xerox is to my liking, they feel to episodic to make a game around them (I mean those are big conflicts, but they look more like skirmishes between a couple of factions, then some world changing events). Maybe the best idea would be to make a jump-through-the-ages campaign structure? Maybe coupled by one big plot? I would like to see a plot (maybe a few ages after Dark Messiah) where the dragon gods have finally appeared and draw each faction into a great war of supremacy... that would be something!
Still, Heroes VII is far on the horizon imo, because to make a good game (not a bug-fest) they really should spend much more time polishing it.

Just let them make more expansions. I do not want to wait 2-3 years for another buggy game with 5 factions.

All they need to do to bring this game back from the grave is simultaneous turns.

I'd rather see them abandon this cheesy desu desu World that is ashan.
And give us back our old school fantasy setting from all the Might and Magic and the HoMM 1-4.
Ashan is a cookie cutter messed with childish and exaggerated creature/landscapes (''wuw Spikeh + purple = suuu kool''). The most recent plot was the exemplification of a japanese teen drama in a flashy high fantasy world ( FF...).
Screw it, nowadays decent old school fantasy settings are too rare (if not inexistent).
If they could simply follow the story of Danse macabre and leave this trash for the void, then that would be great.
Old school fantasy + simple, more pure music (like in 2-3-4).

I would like to see Sylvan & Academy factions in H6, although I would prefer to see H7 consisting of H5 skill format with H6 creatures and graphics.....and factions kept to their vibe (either might or magic, not both!)
