HotA: Garden (replace Conflux)
Hi guys, I just want to share my small modification for HotA: the Garden Mod. With the new Highlands terrain and theme, I felt the faction needed a revisitation. The mod replaces the Conflux with the Garden, using the neutral units already introduced by HotA. The Garden is the home of Fey. The faction has a very high ranged output damage, but also a very low hp-per-week pool. The mod also makes some balance adjustments. I hope you will like that! Enjoy!
----------------------------------------------------
CHANGELOG:
Conflux is replaced by Garden
Cloak of the Undead King resurrects Wights from basic to expert necromancy
Wights does not have regeneration (but wraiths have)
Chaos Hydras have regeneration (125 hp per turn)
Orks and Orks Chieftain have no melee penalty
----------------------------------------------------

Seems more like a Conflux mopdification than a "New town" but I think it is OK. Conflux is boring anyways.
But I concur with replacing Magic Elementals, maybe Phoenixes too (Use 1 Faery Dragon a week); it feels weird that a "garden" would have giant, flaming birds coming from a volcano :V

those were my thoughts as well. a phoenix, i think, would just burn a garden down.
sprites/pixies, leprechauns, and satyrs, yes.
sharpshooters, enchanters, magic elementals, no.
i'd say replace the sharpshooters with dendroids that throw logs, enchanters with halflings(move sprites/pixies and everything else up), magic elementals with a dryad or something similar, and definitely fairy dragons for the 7th level.
also, the dwellings need replaced.

HotA turns into WOG
I've assumed it was already another WOG since a few years ago when they began modifying and balancing the original game all over to their liking instead of just adding new things.

Well, it might be a surprise, but adding new things without rebalancing and reconsidering how the game works is closer to the approaches of WoG or lesser known modding platforms.
It is also known well that vanilla H3 is not a perfect game.

That's why slowly but invevitable people will break DRM of HotA and make it to their likings. I personally prefer HotA on VCMI (HotA without HotA), because I can easily change it. But someone wants to improve basic add-on.

It is only a matter of personal preference if someone wants to play a game by rules, or to absorb in the fun of changing stuff for the sake of changing stuff.

Are you planning to add upgrades for lvl 2-5 units? Or at least disable the possibility of building upgrade dwellings?

Hi guys! First of all I want to thanks you all for your feedbacks! I really appreciate that!
I'm always listening for suggestions to improve the mod. Next update will be about upgrades of 2-5 lvl units. Anyway the basic units are pretty strong, so I plan only to make a slight buff the upgraded versions. The alternative is to make the un-upgraded versions (for example enchanters that cannot cast), and use the actual units as the upgraded ones.
Anyway, how the faction feels? It is fun? It seems balanced? Give me your impressions! Thank you guys for trying my mod!
