Hi all
Today we announce an add-on for H5 - it should be released before the end of the year ! The major element of this addon will of course be a new race for the game : the dwarves, and their own runic magic. The dwarven clans will be pushed unwillingly into the wars ravaging Ashan, and will fight for survival ! You will also get one half more content from H5 : 15 campaign missions, new solo and new MP maps, new buildings, artefacts, neutrals, etc. In terms of features we'll add the much-awaited random map generator and simultaneous turn for MP. We'll also pack the caravans in the addon due to popular demand The patch program is still underway, we are in the final tweaks of the patch 1.3 with the map editor. The addon will carry an improved version of the map editor, which will also be delivered for free online. It will also include all patches released at the time. Be careful about leaked information, what is not announced officially is at best not yet approved, and at worst already cancelled or replaced |

*grin* I was wondering if he was going to mention the caravans. I've been biting my tongue for weeks now about that one. :O)
"The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again. In one Age, called the Third Age by some, an Age yet to come, an Age long past, a wind rose in the Mountains of Mist. The wind was not the beginning. There are neither beginnings or endings to the turning of the Wheel of Time. But it was a beginning." |

I hope that means the Dragon art is not final |

Best news I've heard in a while.Thanks FC for this clarification-It tells more or less all we wanted to know about without spoiling surprises.Hopefully caravans as towns'3d tour will have an option to disable.Good work

Caravans! Yes, this is I was waiting for.
The dwarwes on bears look cool too! |
|||
|
Oh heck that's where I saw it before! .... now I'm stuck with that image. Looks promising. Yep. Definitely going to keep an eye on this. (Even if dwarves is probably one of my least favourite faction ideas... ) |

the one on the end looks like ghimli

It does - looks exactly like Gimli in Battle for Middle Earth |

That screenshot looks really nice. I can't wait to see the other units in that resolution. Loving the hero on the wooly mammoth as well. That's cool.
Now, I asked this in another thread. Let's see if I can get a serious answer this time here. I'm not going to harp on this or anything as we don't know any concrete news, but something strikes me as odd. We already have a town that is fire-based (Inferno). These Dwarves are supposed to be up in the mountains and from what we've all guessed, it would be a snow-based town. Why is it then that the units seem to be fire-based? I really was hoping for an ice-based Dwarven faction. |

There are 4 more screenshots. Check out the screenshot thread. :O) That dwarven underground is simply stunning.

*Disclaimer* I am not posting this to complain or argue. Just a general observation.
I am very surprised to read that they are looking at a November release for this expansion. That means they must have been working on this for a while now. Kinda makes you wonder how much more they could have done with the base program if they didn't split their time between projects. |

I thought it was long since known that the Dwarves would be fire-based? The Inferno is, storylinewise or technically, chaos based (follow the primordial dragon of chaos as opposed to the dwarves who follow the elemental dragon of fire). |

Guess it was just wishful thinking on my part to go along with their snow terrain and all.
|
|||
|
oh, the mammoth is the heros mount? i guess ill be modding that to be a tier 6 unit then and giving another creature as the hero...

If you live in a cold climate you learn to nurture and feed fire to keep you warm during those cold winter nights. Fire is good in a cold climate.
