Egypt
Here is the last post from the EGYPT topic from the old H4 forum:
Mystery Posted 3-19-2001 17:52
Sun god
"I think a sun god would be a too strong unit, maybe
there could be added a Sun pharaoh as another evolution
for the dark pharaoh, maybe the could be a grail called
the sun god temple or another building and the grail
would be a large pyramid or obelisk."
If you want to see the entire topic and its posts go to the old Heroes4 forum and see the topic called EGYPT.

One thing that I hope, is that the highest level creature shouldn't be 7. We have neutral creatures in AB higher that lvl 7, why not have higher lvl creatures in town too.
I think that the Sun God should be called Amon Ra. It has the same meaning but it is in native language.
They should be tall, like Titans, face looking like gold golems, with a staff in their hands. They should be immune to fire (sun gods) maybe abbility to teleport, I can't think of something else right now.
Keep up the good work.
Have fun guys...

Here is the whole topic:
Topic:EGYPT
Mystery [guest] from Heroes Community
EGYPT Posted 3-8-2001 17:53
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why not make an Egyptian castle instead of the barbarians (not sure about that) with mummys, cobras, Pharaohs and scarabs, and more, with some special attributes like cursing or something... I would love to see some new types of units like these ones and Japanese ones like posted in another topic.
Drizzt [guest] from Heroes Community
Yeah... Posted 3-9-2001 12:33
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
great idea, then they could build ,Darkpriests,mummy's,sand-spirits,Giant-snakes,and many other, but i dont think they should cancel the barbarians,more races the better the game will be, more challenge and more enemy to fight
Galactus from Heroes Community
Egypt Posted 3-13-2001 05:55
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is a great idea. Mummys, nomads, ect. would make a nice sand town. Barbarians have to stay though!!!
Mystery [guest] from Heroes Community
Sorry... Posted 3-13-2001 13:50
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was wrong, Barbarians should stay.
Mystery [guest] from Heroes Community
FINAL DECISION Posted 3-13-2001 20:19
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Egyptian castle: Mummy -> Royal mummy -> Anubus (or something). Priest -> High priest -> Sun priest. Scorpion -> Sand scorpion -> Scorch stinger. Scarab -> Holy scarab. Sand spirit -> Sandstorm. Desert snake -> Cobra -> Fire cobra. Pharaoh -> Dark pharaoh -> Pharaoh God. Yamato castle: Samurai -> Zealot (or fanatic). Bowman -> Composite bowman -> Assassin. Shaolin Priest-> Shaolin master. Flame master -> were dragon -> Dragonmage -> Dragon god. Mage -> Demigod -> Diety -> Sky diety. Phoenix -> Golden phoenix.

its a good one Posted 3-14-2001 21:15
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
thats a good one mystery but why shoulden a town have more creatures i dont hope they will do the same mistake as in the homm3 whit that few monsters more creatures more game play time.
Mystery [guest] from Heroes Community
more monsters Posted 3-16-2001 12:00
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I thought about some more monsters that should be thrown in, I dont actually know what level. Egypt:Silver golem (x2 damage vs. vampires)->Gold golem | Sphinx -> Royal sphinx (or something). Yamato: Sapphire golem -> Diamond golem. I especially would like if they'd leave the gold golem with its egyptian look. By the way, I liked the change in H3 from cartoonish monsters to realistic looking and that the evils ones look more evil and the good ones look more good (Dont reply to this, if u wanna say something, create a new topic).

Egyptian Castles Posted 3-17-2001 14:17
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I like your idea about the egyptian castle. Gold golems would be great in an egyptian-themed castle. Scarabs, mummies, sphinxes, etc. are great ideas. Just a thought though. I had to study the ancient Egyptians in history. They worshipped cat-gods. These cat-gods had the body of a person and the head of a cat. Sometimes they had the head of an eagle. I think that these cat-gods and bird-gods would make great units in an egyptian castle. Also, it could be called a pyramid or something.
Mystery from Heroes Community
Good idea Posted 3-17-2001 17:40
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Good idea, I already used it in one place as the final evolution of the mummy, i think its called an anubus, a human like being with a kinda long face of a cat or a dog, something like that. Dont forget to look at the topic called: "New mythical, magical *strange* town".
Diablo2112 from Heroes Community
Another new idea Posted 3-18-2001 01:12
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun God would be a great highest level unit for the egyptian castle. I'm kinda busy right now. The ideas are flowing in.

Sun god Posted 3-19-2001 17:52
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think a sun god would be a too strong unit, maybe
there could be added a Sun pharaoh as another evolution
for the dark pharaoh, maybe the could be a grail called
the sun god temple or another building and the grail
would be a large pyramid or obelisk.
RazorX, I don't think a sun god or Amon Ra should be a unit, because its a god, there is only one sun god existing, maybe he could be a special campaign hero (if there would be an Egyptian campaign), or as I suggested before, there would be a grail structure or another building in his name.

To Mystery
Titans are very powerful unit, and they are similar to gods. It is said that Titans challenged even gods, and are capable to rule instead of them.
Well just MYTHOLOGY, and just an opinion, nothing personal. Anyway, it is better not to have these units, just their high servants.
Have fun guys....

i like it
Good idea, and lots of cool names are listed. I think it is prolly best just to throw around names and ideas, and give the designers lots of options. I think the bring together of the 2 game series will progress with h4. So they need to put in some type of sand wyrm than.

Sorry, but I have got to agree with raZor X
I'm sorry, but I have got to agree with raZor X on this one. He made a great point about tians/gods. I am going to stick with my opinion about Sun Gods. I think they would make a great lvl. 7+ unit. They are gods, but raZor X made a valid point about titans challenging gods. I'm going to stick with my idea. Also, someone said that the Sun God should carry a staff. I think it should look similar to the mummies staff. And I think [whatever raZor X said meant Sun God in Egyptian] could be the upgrade to the Sun God. Also, the [Sun God's upgrade]'s staff could shoot curses similar to the lightning shot out of the Titan's glavius.

Here is an explanation to the unit:
Flame master->Were dragon->Dragon mage->Dragon god (or Dragon spirit).
Flame master: Human creaure with some similarities to a dragon, breathes fire (1 hex only, maybe flying ability).
Were dragon: Something like Goro in Mortal Kombat, 4 handed human-dragon creature, spits fire (ranged attacker, no hand-to-hand penalty, when hand-to-hand, he attack 3 adjacent hexes, the upper one, with the upper hands, the lower one with the lower hands, and the middle one with fire breath).
Dragon mage: A creaure which is as tall as a regular human, with wings and a tail and scales (preferably red) and legs of a dragon, but hands are human like (longer and have fingers, flyer and ranged attacker), also its head should be a dragon head but a little more triangular like the demon's head and with horns, it could also wear a cape or something.
Dragon god (or dragon spirit): A small (red) dragon, that flies and attacks with hand-to-hand (non-shooter), maybe this evolution is too strong and shouldn't exist, or should require a lot of EXP.
As u see, the evolutions are very different (ie. Were-dragon is a ranged attacker with no hand-to-hand penalty, and dragon god or dragon spirit is a flier and is a non-shooter), so the units should be very different and special.

Really good ideas you have here... I like both towns suggested by mystery, it will contribute to a great variety of creatures and towns.
Concerning Egypt town, I'm glad that someone liked Sun God. I would say that we shouldn't be too strict in our thoughts, you know all that stuff, this shouldnt exist because of this or because if that...
Ok back to topic then...
Well ... you have all the lineup here, all cool, it would be good to hear others opinion.
I agree...

I think the heroes should be:
Slave master (or Overlord) - Might.
Priest (or Conjurer)- Magic.

If Egypt town should have dragons, then the proper one would be the rust dragons, because of thier pyramid-like sulfurous lair. Of course, the reduced-stats version of the rust.
Just an idea...

No... there aren't enough dragons. I'm not saying that every town should have them, but I'd like to see more of them.
~O~
But what I'd really like to see is different levels of them. The dragons from Arm's Blade were good start, but people are now talking about weakening them all to 7th level and placing them in towns. If so, there need to be new lvl 8+ dragons to replace them, and hopefully more than four. I understand that people want to have access to them via towns, but part of the fun is not being able to get them every game. I think that their un-allied status made them some of the more interesting units in the game, and they were enough stronger than the other unallied creatures that they were actually worth using; a single week can actually replace several week's growth of a town creature. Several weeks' growth of them is, of course, wonderful.
~O~
Also, what do people think about low-level dragons? Faerie Dragons could be modified as low as 5th level, instead of 8th. Crystal Dragons could remain as 9th level, or be dropped to 7th or even 6th, as long as they remained tough compared to other troops of the same level.
~O~
I'd also like to see structures that allowed access to more than one type of dragon. The game already contains Confluxes which offer all 4 Mentals and Golem Factories which offer 4 different Golems. If the Dragon Utopia, in addition to its current properties, was a dragon dwelling, I'd be rather happy. Or if the money gotten from the Utopia would allow someone to get a ton of drags immediately, the Developers could create a Dragon City, instead. The Utopia could be renamed Dragon Hoard or Dragon Treasury, or something like that, and be grouped with the Medusae Stores, etc.

dragons
Yes I agree dragons are some of the coolest units in the game and it would be nice to have several different levels of dragons in the game(maybe even level 1 hatchlings or something).
I don't think dragons sholud be in an egyptian town because it's like having the genie in the tower(Genies in the snow... i don't think so).
Egyptian level 7 (or highest level creature) should be a sphinx.
The majority of dragons should be neutral creatures because they are supposed to be solitary creatures. Maybe the dragon issue should have its own post.

Agree
I agree with level one dragons. You know, like in those cartoons that they show on tv. Perhaps a minimized version of the fairy dragon. It looked so sweet  I kinda like it. I think we need more and more and more dragons, what we have now is just not enough... keep those smiles on your faces and those sad thoughts inside...

Dragons.
Dragons rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They should be strong, and the strongest H4 unit should be a Dragon, but there shouldn't be so many of them, they must be unique, notice that there are already some lower level dragons, like in the Yamato town: Flame master->Were-dragon->Dragon mage->Dragon spirit.
