Erwan le Breton
Race: Human Spider-Vampire
Affinity: Totally Magical
Class: Creative Director
Specialization: Lorelol (everything he touches becomes a vampire)
"After he took over the position of creative director at Ubisoft, Erwin took an oath to make everything as cliche as possible. He ripped off popular games in order to make more profit for the Ubisoft Duchy, most notably Warcraft and Warhammer. Everyone on the battlefield fears Erwun as his mere touch turns everything into a vampire. He also really loves spiders (probably Formicophilia), maybe because his parents gave him an easy to remember name, but no one wants to spell it correctly "
Alternate version:
Don't thank me. Really. Do NOT.

did you mean human Spider? That's in his bio.

If Erwan sees this, we'll have no peace. Although on the bright side, perhaps we'll see crab-polis (crapolis?) in H8 instead of spiderpolis.

Give us better heroes specializations.

Give us more diverse creatures abilities.
Already 15 upvotes at the blog but we need more.

Thank you for clarifying that and I do agree with these, especially the first one.

You don't with the second one? Remember Landsknecht and Rakshasa both has Sweeping and Disciple and Crossbowman both has Piercing shot. You ok with this?

I a gree in case of some units (Ghosts) but generally speaking I don't believe this is such a big issue. In Heroes games units' abilities generally repeat so I think that a few repeating abilities can be changed but should they? Not in all cases.

While some replicates may not ruin the whole game, is it really that hard to come up with a tad more diversity?

2x2 creature share similar abilities. sure, they're in the same 2 factions (haven academy) but i feel they're different enough otherwise to make this point kinda moot. wait and see what the other factions bring, k'? i'll be all up in arms with you if this turns into a thing but right now...
though more interesting hero abilities would be nice (i miss improving creatures per level) i also understand that it's a pain to balance. necessary evil even though i hate it. i want my heroes to be unique, damnit! but still... balance. ugh.

To be perfectly honest I don't really see the big deal about balancing. H3 and H5 are the most fun titles after all.
Also, this can be adjusted later on if we have access to ini files (or whatever format they will be in H7).

not the one to force balance into anything so i'm with you here. balance is something to keep in mind and if Limbic don't think they can pull it off, then i'll accept that. won't like it but whatever.

Not only Knecht and Rakshasa have Sweep ability. Blade Dancer and Hydra (to some degree) also have it.
As for Piercing Shot one unit from Dungeon has it too - Stalker IIRC its name.
And we don't know (Stevie and Galaad actually do know) if some of Stronghold units don't share these abilities or other abilities that are already present in game.

No dublicate abilities within the same faction please. I hope for more abilities in general, but no more than a few per creature that define them.

I think creatures having same abilities is not that nice :/ And what about that piercing shot? Already on two units. I got the impression that units are using more covers and the battle field will matter more in this sense, but piercing shot kinda works against that.
And about balancing the hero specialties and all that.. I dont actually think its that necessary to have them in total balance. I explained this thought in this post.
Anyways... Im happy to have Tyris in the game! Really liked her in H3 Also cool that she still has that iconic helmet

Sometimes it may be. Think about Rakshasas and Hydras. Both are are units to which ability to attack multiple adjacent units without retaliation truly suits. Although their ability is the same, still these units differ. However, in case of Marksmen piercing shot could be changed into the one from Heroes V (up to some distance, when Marksmen attacks a unit, defense of that unit is nullified) and it will get another ability.
