Didn't Isabel abdicate in favour of Freyda at the end of TotE? And Freyda is from Unicorn Duchy :D
25Antalyan L'Ancien
I tihnk that there WILL be Unicorn empire. After H5, Freyda from Unicorns became the empress.
23JotunLogi
exactly! but suprisingly it was long time ago.... really waiting for those new events! not that do not like new stories (Ivan seems to be most interesting campaign hero since Realag- Sandro and Crag not counting here)
14Iwanesosuro Le Fou
But then the champions will become more powerful than the angels ;(
14Arqueiroarcano1 Le Gardien
Me too. As far as prequels are always welcome, I would appreciate if they took one ending of the Dark Messiah as canon and made a sequel of H5.
On a side note, I do think unicorn-head-shaped-pauldrons are pretty cool ;P
23JotunLogi
besides, I was always both curious and impressive about the lenght of Ashan story when compared to old world:
In hoMM 1 we have Lord Ironfist as main hero, in hoMM 2 story occurs around his sons (Roland and Archibald), in HoMM 3- Catherine and Roland, HoMM 4- several years after world destruction, there are descendandts of Gryphonheart dynasty (Lyssander). M&M 6-9 take place in the very same time- it is mentioned that in New world son of Roland and Catherine survived- and even Archibald could.
13sung4n Le Gardien
ummm you do know that H7 event is before H5 in the timeline, so, the story of Freyda will have to wait, maybe H8? When they finally decided to move the timeline AFTER Isabel's war? that is interesting, because:
- if Sar Elam's prophecy is to be believed then it means how the world ends
- Sareth already release the doomsday by giving the Skull of Shadow to Kha-Beleth
- I think Kha-Beleth is Sar-Elam himself, well a quick speculation
23JotunLogi
somewhat in Ashan there are not that many twists and nth changes that quickly, on the other hand- I miss simple continuation of events that was present in older Heroes and M&M games
22Niwroc L'Ancien
That would be an interesting twist. Although I suppose it would explain his sudden appearance and rapid ramp up in power to the point of unifying all demons, mostly, in the span of, what? A few hundred years? Too lazy to look at the timeline right now.
19B_WE
Interesting idea... I hope, that we will see some neutral creatures associated to the different duchies... Maybe we see the way the unicorns find their way from haven to the sylvan fraction...
21Najakir Le Kreegan
Human knights cannot ride unicorn, but it could be horses with horned helmet.
Yes, I wonder what the unicorn empire will looks like !
17ChrupekPL L'Aventurier
It will probably look awesome, but some parts will be completely destroyed by Biara. Wonder if they will take a Witcher approach and show us some poor cities touched by hunger during Biara's Wars.
19B_WE
Why humans can't ride on unicorns? I do not understand this... Maybe they are so rare? How ever: A real unicorn is better than an horned helm...
21Najakir Le Kreegan
It is said that elves already find horrible that human use unicorn as symbol... if they ride them when most of elves cannot, it would be war. XD
17ChrupekPL L'Aventurier
Would they really break an Ancient Alliance because of a single knight riding a unicorn? ;-;
19B_WE
This sounds like the stuff of a great story... With many unicorns... (smile)
22ptrsc L'Ancien
@B_WE
Unicorns (they were often seen as a symbol of purity) may not allow humans to ride them because humans are hardly pure creatures;P
21Najakir Le Kreegan
Unicorn are sacred creatures... no I really don't think there will be unicorn riders in haven... not even simple unicorns.
28Chiasa Le Fou
Bullshit, the Holy Empire knights are the purest of the pure. Even unicorns seem unworthy compared to them :3 That's why H6 knights rode some shiny things instead of horses ;P
19B_WE
Of course you're right, they don't like humans... I'm only searching for a way to see the unicorns as neutral creatures back in Heroes VII...
21Najakir Le Kreegan
Neutral creatures could still be link to a faction, like in H4. So why not neutral unicorn, snake, phoenix, etc... as elven neutral ?^^
22ptrsc L'Ancien
@Chiasa
Hahah, yeah, maybe, but the Sun Riders went extinct. I do not exactly know how to understand that - were they not humans? That would explain a lot while also support my thesis;P
19B_WE
@ptrc: In an effort to defeat the competing duchies, the humans forfeit a piece of their connection to the god of light... Maybe that is a reason the Sun Riders disappear... (just maybe...)
25Sussugamon Le Conseiller
@Najakir
That's something I faintly still hope. Other units, neutral as they may, under a certain faction relation, such as these you mentioned, and other additional ones.
11jeremy_hudson Le Mystérieux
Never thought about, but yes i believe you are right, they would make a great addition to haven
25LightAvatarX L'Incorruptible
Today is the...I am not sure how it is in english...carnival day?Also I am not sure if there is this traddition in all countries...
Anyway,I was thinking to everyone would change his/her avatar to the excactly opposite one faction!
For example:
Academy->Stronghold
Haven->Dungeon
Sancturay->Fortress
Necropolis->Inferno->Sylvan
And maybe different gender...
Up Vote10
30mediczero Le Marteau du Destin
Well from snake to dwarf... Fortress is my second favorite anyway...
And nice avatar light!
25Sussugamon Le Conseiller
Here in my country, Carnaval will be this next week. There's a big party people go in the street. Men clothed as women (too much for JeremiahEmo's heart), in a party called Bloco dos Sujos. It's rather fun, although I don't enjoy much as some of my friends do. Carnaval in Brazil is quite popular, but, alike football, a great deal of Brazilians are not fussed about it.
28Chiasa Le Fou
Damn you LightAvatar! :D
I was considering changing mine to this sexy face you've chosen :< And you beat me to it.
30Mirash_ge Le Dragon
I do not like the alliance faction / Anton -Beautiful man )
30EnergyW Le Pirate
I'll bite... even if I did change my avatar recently...

Guys,guys I have with a lot of difference the best costume xP
I bought it yesterday in Astron!It had 40%!My favourite ashan's shop...
Just look at my mask!It'so beautifulll xP
25Sussugamon Le Conseiller
Another hashtag?
Give us all the hashtags!
#GUATH
Hm...liked it! Sounds almost like BLAH!
25Sussugamon Le Conseiller
I bought this mask because it suits my ... er ... lack of hair.
28Marblethrone Le Chevaleresque
A one-day avatar change to celebrate the feast of Carnival? Well, why not!
Tomorrow I will be Kilburn again, but until then...
Yrris all the way, a handsome Dark Elf girl with blood-red hair. Such a beauty, and yet so dangerous. Oh, the memories.
28Chiasa Le Fou
@Marble
It's a girl? I could never tell :D
//Didn't play shades of purple so have no idea who that is :)
30Mirash_ge Le Dragon
Marblethrone )) With Antonio were also uneasy memories ))))
30Mirash_ge Le Dragon
@ Chiasa )
This girl Iris -Beautiful and clever dark Elf H6
28Marblethrone Le Chevaleresque
@Chiasa: Well, it's quite obvious, isn't it? Her face, eyes, hair...especially compared to the other Dark Elf heroes we can select as our avatar. Go, play (50) Shades of Darkness, you will enjoy it (and get further proof that Yrris is a she xD)
@Mirash: Antonio? Should I know this guy?
28Chiasa Le Fou
Ok, I believe you :3 But honestly I was never sure about her gender. All elves have slender faces, are beautiful (well, most of them) and men could have long hair as well. So I was confused whether it's a woman or a really pretty man :D
I think Mirash meant Anton
30Mirash_ge Le Dragon
@ Marblethrone
went into the kitchen ... all thanks //// Jeremiah hi )) \ And Iris -elf Pts beautiful! \
30EnergyW Le Pirate
Ay devs,
when will we expect more portals to be opened, like Game World or Community? Or even have a peek at the Stronghold units?
23JotunLogi
would also add all those promised interviews, update of fan fiction, some statement about planned action on the website (if it is possible to expand number of letters, add forum and all those stuff- we really need that cause in comments there is too big mess cause of lack of those)
28Marblethrone Le Chevaleresque
"Know also that what I'm about to reveal is something that can never leave this Shadow Council."
*After a long, tiring day I leave the Council Halls and head for the local tavern. There, I order the usual and after a few well-earned mugs of fresh apple juice I lean onto the counter, facing the bartender, and say:*
"You NEVER guess what I just heard today. It's amaaazing, I tell you...here, let me...repeat it to you." *All present in the tavern get closer to me as I start telling*....
14Iwanesosuro Le Fou
Probably about a half of the council will be in the tavern so the bartender will be the only one to hear anything new.
28Marblethrone Le Chevaleresque
@Tito_Reni: I knew I should never have fallen in love with that Dark Elf girl...bad company, I tell you. Very bad. You learn things you come to regret later on. Still, at least they don't start shooting at you if you try to carve your name in a tree, much unlike their Sylvan brethren.
@Iwanesosuro:
But I go to a special tavern. If all of the Council goes to the same place it's as busy and crowded as it is here in these halls.
Your name sounds like 'I was not so sure' for some reason :|....
14Iwanesosuro Le Fou
I was not so sure about what you have said about my name.
14Storm-Giant Le Destructeur
Excellent chapter, the ilustrations really help to follow the whole war and the different battles.
Now hoping for a Sandro appereance!
21Pawek1308 L'Ancien

21Milets Le Gardien
Hmm.. maybe, but that's getting old... just hope they come with something new
24KhanOfSlaughter Le Conquérant
Did anyone else notice that Tieru is wearing a dead animal's corpse on his head? I thought the elves were respectful of nature. Apparently chopping off a deer's head and using it as a fashion statement is not against nature...
28ramborusina
Maybe it's worthless unit that gets killed by the dozen so you got lots of "hats" available? ;P
20Cosadj Le Conseiller
The fashion already existed in H5 ^^ And maybe he didn't kill it. Maybe it just grew old and die. Or perhaps it was his old companion who died, and he decided to wear him out of respect :D
15Quetzatoul Le Kreegan
Sylvan elves are tree-lovers, not animal-lovers. There's a difference.
21Igelkolnikov L'Ancien
@Cosadj
You mean, it was his "deer" friend? :-O
21Igelkolnikov L'Ancien
@Cosadj

21Igelkolnikov L'Ancien
@KhanOfSalughter
I agree, never liked the H5 druid much. Both because of the cartoony look, which the whole game sufferd from, but also because of the whole head as a hat idea. The H7 artwork looks better, where the antlers are made more as a crown and the deer face have been removed.
23JotunLogi
I think that Hannibal Lecter would approve such a marvelous hat- perfect outfit for official meetings, dates with the true love and holidays with family!

25RobvD84 Le Fou
Hmm i think you have to wait atleast 6 hours to be sure. But i rather have less articles and have them better quality.
28ramborusina
I'd rather get articles about game mechanics and their ideas on them. I don't wanna end up with them saying this is how we decided was best, too late to change anything.
Articles like hero-classes explain very little when the skills aren't explained to us. Abilities for creatures would be nice to see or have explained(for example area/radius). Articles about lore or heroes are of very little interest to me personally as I (hopefully) get all that in game, they just feel fillers here to me :S
30Sempai_Mur Le Ténébreux
@ramborusina, +1 I really anticipate skill system. Totally important thing.
21JedynyHex Le Puissant
I think it's too early for this Sempai.
I was looking forward to promised gameplay video.
30Sempai_Mur Le Ténébreux
@JedynyHex, why? Game mechanic should be designed from the very beginning I suppose. That's the core of the game.
25RobvD84 Le Fou
Yeah maybe the vid will give us more information. But i am afraid the vid is going to be a showoff about what they did with the graphics and models, and not about gameplay and game mechanics. But well see...
25Sussugamon Le Conseiller
Actually, game mechanics should have been presented first, given that it's really something they won't be able to change later as 'easy' as some couple of artworks; and because that all the fun and purpose of playing is all about.
But again, they chose to sell a dumbed down idea so far. I'm smelling H6 all over again.
25Sussugamon Le Conseiller
@RobvD84
PRECISELY! You'll have flashes, glimpses of things we want to know how to work, and no explanation. Many of the answered stuff from those Q&A might be then shown, but those questions that they couldn't answer at that time (all those regarding what really matters such as mechanics) will remain in the dark.
It's going to be a let down. Alas!, here we are, grouped together, singing songs, expecting the inevitable.
28Marblethrone Le Chevaleresque
It would be a shame if someone mistook TIeru for a Stag officer and shot him.
28Marblethrone Le Chevaleresque
That deer cap is very deer to him, I see.
Oh well, he's in H5 so nobody did actually shoot him. But still, what if....
25RobvD84 Le Fou
Hmm think the joke would have been funnier if you added sherrif instead of officer.
14Kobaltmaster Le Gardien
Props for the deer jokes guys. With all these deeranged gender discussions you've lightened up the mood here! XD
28Marblethrone Le Chevaleresque
@Sussugamon:
You can also shoot people with a crossbow, or a normal longbow for that matter.
11rnaflyer Le Puissant
@RobvD84
Instead Tieru would shot him - in a self-defence :) =>

- We are opposed to Galaadlehaut's actions that bring NOTHING to this community website.
- We are opposed to Galaadlehaut's disregard for the rest of the community which he views is beneath him (Hence why he's happy to troll users' posts with dribble).
- We strive to show Galaadlehaut that although he is level 30, he is NOT the ultimate authority on EVERY topic like he thinks.

24KhanOfSlaughter Le Conquérant
It's so sad that GalaadleHaut has pushed people to do this.
25RobvD84 Le Fou
Why is that so? He isn't even that active as before. Also just because he is really active and states his opinion (sometimes trough spamming) is still no reason to do something like this. And ive only seen GriffinKind saying things about how he hates Galaad, so there is clearly something about that needs to be checked if he has so much trouble with this. The same with the ppl that upvote this. And you ppl claim that you are for free speech.
25logical.dust
Although I do not agree on everything with him, he is one of the few who really care about the game. I would say more iritating are ass kissing people like LigtAvatarX posting quizes all over place who in fact dont care about the game at all. They will probably pirate the game play it once or two times and delete. Advises of such people should not be taken into account at all. Overall I think kids input is somewhat less important as kids change mind in matter of seconds and are easily impressed
25logical.dust
And I almost forgot ... NO I do not support your cause.

Druids are female, that's inevitabe, all should deal with that. Jeremiah included.
No one should be banned, and no one should request banishment of fellow Councillors. Jeremiah, despite his strong opinion and, shall we say, commanding presence and of course his quirks, does provide us with something to do. I do not share his opinion, nor do I justify spamming (by anyone, not just him), but I can say that people are being moved about by him. It's never quiet when that woodland sprite shows up.

ELVES are female. Anyone has seem ever a male elf?
21Igelkolnikov L'Ancien
Maybe there will be a villian in the sylvan campaign, named Jehrimu, that fights to purge the faction from female druids. He gets handilly defeated ofc, by many many female druids who sends his corpse to Anastasia. She then resurrects him as an servant ghoul to obey her commands for all eternity. One can always dream!
22JeremiahEmo Le Destructeur
@Chiasa
actually no. They're just gender-bended to please the feminists.
@Igelkolnikov
As if brain-dead female druids can defeat the almighty Jehrimu. If he'll be defeated by them, it's because the legendary Tieru, coupled with the strategic genius of Findan and Talanar are helping them. Yeah, it takes 3 legends to beat the mighty Jehrimu. :)

Yeah, we already know it. You always return as the terminator.
JotunLogiFebruary 11, 2015 18:49:40
Strongly waiting for Uncorn empire!
1) the story will finally push forward and we will know future events
2) unicorn in Haven would suit, would provide magic and proper atmosphere in the lineup
3) unicorn would be fine mounts for knights
4) blue- white colours like the most, resemble kingdom of Erathia
5) hope that thouse pauldrons and unocorn-styled armour elements would not appear, they look awful!
6) hope for new partition of Empire and new interesting duchies (Dragon Duchy!) :D
