Probably not. I don't think Necro realy needs a "first-aid tent", with healing hurting them and all.
Uh... plague tent? Or a machine/unit which revives creatures on the battlefield (not a big amount of course)

Ghost dragon has some interesting abilities but why can't they give the lich some proper deathcloud attack instead of some nansy pansy aoe curse?

he, lol. i was thinking more of the intended strategy the faction as a whole was designed for you know, mostly beefy and relatively slow units (not even the flyers were very fast and the skeletons were beefy through sheer numbers).
but damn. 7000 skellies on week 3? is that normal?

The Plague tent, if it is intended to function like in H5, does exactly the same as a Balista-like machine would, I.E. Damage. You don't need 2 warfare units to do the same.
And resurecting creatures on the battlefield instead of afterwards was what was so generally hated about H6-style Necromancy, something everyone wants to move away from.
From the looks of things, Necropolis gets a Damage and a Siege Warfare unit. No healing, but with Necromancy, they get reinforcements afterwards instead, which serves a similar function.

This unit modification is an "extra" for the project. We won't cut content to make it happen (even if we are not able to print money)

Any guesses as to what kind of warmachine this is supposed to be? It's the icon of the tech tree and Heaven and Academy have the ballista and pyramyd instead.

Looks a lot like the H6 Necro-catapult to me.

I think it's catapult. In Heroes 6 Necropolis' catapult was a spider.

That's good to know, apart "the not being able to print money" part.
Ps. Are you avoiding me regarding my Uplay issues?

Probably not. I don't think Necro realy needs a "first-aid tent", with healing hurting them and all.
That could be it. We'll see.
Speaking of Plague Tents, I loved playing Plague Tent Kaspar in Heroes 5.

Can you tell us if they will be redesigned from scratch or if it's just a.. facelift? Because completely redesigning them into Skeletal Lich and Nosferatu/Count/etc. Vampire is what we want.
