Is anyone else intrigued by this?
What's it supposed to be? An academy town? It's quite different from their typical arabian style.
I really hope it is the new Necropolis. I hated the green pyramid in H6... really, undead deserve a more ghostly, haunted, eerie buildings, not a dull pyramid

It's really blue though...
Besides, I thought it was a random temple of sorts from a card game.

Marzhin, any news on the leveling and achievement system of the Shadow Council? Something more precise than "soon" would be appreciated.
No idea. The guys are working on it though.

I hope that a level 12 town being needed for a level 2 mage guild is just an example. A very bad example.
Waiting almost 2 weeks to get 2nd level spells is horrible.
Not if there are only 3 levels of spells.

I hope you are joking.
But, then again, H6 technically had three levels too...

Hm it seems that people are entering arguments about town conversion on the comment section. Many people want it personally I don't care either way.

People that want town conversion don't have a clue what it will do to this game, we will have H6 all over again.

We already have same tiers of units(core/elite/champion) which just means that cores will be again a lot stronger than in previous games(just like in H6).
Whole town conversion created a problem of cores being stronger than elites and champions because you just had so many of them with being able to convert all towns, forts and dwellings.
How would you implement that feature then, without damaging the very important aspect of the game?

to give an example: if you really want a town to convert, like we say, you saw a really strategical need in that, you have to accept some consequences. waste both time & resources. not only resources. that conversion in h6, that magical instant conversion, is just plain wrong. capture it, convert it, recruit armies in 1 day is really wrong.
so how it can be done properly? make it risky and demanding. for example, it may require some "demolish" first. more the complexity of town, more the time it takes. meantime, it loses fortifications leaving itself and conquerer of that town, defenseless. when demolish finishes, you start to develope that town from zero.
this may also provide additional strategy: "raze the town". make use of your second(or third or whatever) hero, run to defenseless towns and capture them. until you leave, demolish some buildings and give a great pain to careless enemy.
or entire different implement:
make whole process of H6 untouched but make the converted towns less unit providing for few weeks. even this kind of simple thing would have made conversion better.

I also prefer to stay away from town conversion. Big risk for an issue that can be solved with good map design (and a bit of game design too, economy!).

Just speculating.
If there are only 3 levels of spells then its sort of okay to wait 12 turns for them. If 5 then it's obviously bad.
But it is probably just a example.
Hmm... could comment some thoughts on spells and levels, but it proably requires another thread.

Why some people chose Bambi over Unicorns or Phoenix ? Why people want non-random skillsystem ? Why people don't want mvt penalty while boarding and landing a ship ? Why people like 4 ressources ? Why people like easy teleportation ? etc etc etc
Because UBISOFT proposed such heresies, erm, features, pleasing some, and now they want more.

i liked some of them even if i am an old fan. just because they didnt worked well, doesnt mean they are heresy. no need to go back roots all the way. thye were done because of some potential behind them, its too easy to give up, what is important is, to fix and improve them to make them use of their potential.
