TOWNS:

HAVEN - units are mostly doine nicely and the castle looks good. The biggest gripe is the focus on order and not actual goodness.

the Angel is not exactly as I wanted it, but it's not bad.

The Paladin is a terrible mergining of a crusaider and champion nd looks like hte worst lvl6 unit. HEAl for a special abiltiy? Even if it was mass cure that heals all friendly units nad removes all negative spell effects it would still be a bad skill for a lvl 6 unit....


SYLVAN - more akin to what I would like, more elves That I like ,as I do the deneroids.. But no Phoenix...

INFERNO - like it. Can say nothing bad about it.

NECROPOLIS - same thing..

ACADEMY - I'm personalyl not a fan of the orientalness of this town but icna live with it. the dissapointing fact that there are no dwarves and that the mages look more lile some fat sultans is what kills it for me..

DUNGEON - dark elve.ok, I have no gripe with it, but it must be the realisticly speaking the worst castle of all. The hulking minotaurs only lvl 3? Teh blood furys are supposed to be uber-fast, uber-agile MELEE fighters? with no armor and HIGH HEELS????? What's with the scace clothing Nival? Do you think every fan out there is a ***** 10 year old?? Ever heard of clothing that fits the purpose????

-----
OVERALL:

Linerar upgrades, chaining is in, the stupid attack system from H3 is back, and my favorites units of all have either been butchered or removed (Paladin, Phoenix, etc...).

Ovarall
the oinly thing that might somewhat save the game is a high modabiltiy factor..and I siriusoly doubt about that...

[vladpopescu2005]

My analysis:
Haven: creatures are OK except for imperial griffin, inquisitor, anime-angel.
castle is dull
Inferno: creatures are ok except for overseer, succubus, nightmare, devil.
castle is dull
necro: creatures are good (some crappy details though)
castle: ?
Dungeon: only minotaur, hydra and dragon are OK.

Sylvan: no pegasi - bad; war dancer - worse. otherwise ok.

Academy: pretty cool.

[Babulino]

Wow, that`s strange, i really share your opinion.
I am missing pala , phoenix and dwarf
Minotaurs need to be higher level, definitivly.
They were/are one of my favourite units.
And to add one thing, like ellderon said, i thing dungeon is ok, but like said in some other threads, both elven ***** units look nearly the same. Well they have different weapons , great. I would suggest bringing back manticors instead of the level 6 girlygirl or harpies instead of the level 2 gothicgirl.
I guess they wont do it so "at least" i`d like to see some difference in the style of the girls.
Maybe white hair for the level6 dark elf. Like Storm in X-men.
And... am i am the only one who thinks that the raptor riders are a lot too small compared to the hero riding the Rex?
Finally i have to say, i like the academy and it`s arabic touch but i was fine with our winter academy too.
Well, just my opinion

[grendelian]

I like the Angel, and evrything else The only problem i have, and this is major for me especially cus it could fit in so nicely, is that there is no pegasi rider in the sylvan town It could even help balance out the Raptor rider in the dark elf town.

So I will give you my analysys
TOWNS:

HAVEN - Never been my favorite , but it is well done ... The unapgraded angel is nicer then the upgraded



SYLVAN - a good town ... I am fine with gold dragon , although I wished for faerie dragon

INFERNO - Good town ... I like all the units here .... I do miss efrettii , but hell i do not care any more for them ! Great town

NECROPOLIS - This is a good town ... I love new vampires :P

ACADEMY - I'm glad there are no dwarves here ... Never liked this town in h3 , however I do like the new desert town idea ... Genies fit to desert .... Well who knows maybe here I will like it more

DUNGEON - How can you fight with swords on HIGH HEELS????? I do not like the 2 and 6 level .... Other then that it is ok ... IMO 2 and 6 level should be merged into one unit ... On 1 st level there should be a troglodyte slave and on second the assaisn ... No blood sister as she is the same as shadow witch and lame...

Clearly this is the worst town ... It is a pity as I always wished for dark elven town in homm , however not like this

-----
OVERALL:
Heroes off combat = good

Game is based on h3 = good

I fear of chaining like in h3 .... However this is still not 100% certain ....

Zooming .... I do fear that zooming on adventure map will be needed to play eficiently....

Ovarall : not bad
I still wait for sth more about gameplay.... Dungeon faction should be changed ....

[Ironlich]

yeah the only town that needs significant improvement is the dungeon other than that everything is pretty good.

This is what needs done in my opinion (or something similar)

A little level switching by pushing d. hydra up to level 6 and move minotaur to level 4 or 5 and made beholder level 4 if your not going to have medusas then have the shadow witch as level 3.

here's what I would like to see:

1. Assassin
2. Dark Champion
3. Shadow Matriarch
4. Beholder/Evil Eye (whatever)
5. Minotaur Guard
6. Deep Hydra
7. Black Dragon

My Analysys:

Haven - stun for 2 units might be overpowered (unless the chances are not that high); I hope the paladin can heal himself; It's a very good town for long games when you know you can just make an army of angels and none of them will really die.

Sylvan - LOVIN' IT! elves rule! reminds me of the green color in MTG.

Inferno - I don't like the self distraction ability (could be usefull if the damage it'll do is really really really good); chain lightning made of fire is unusual but I think it looks cool; FINALLY you don't raise the dead as useless deamons (like in HoMM3) but summon powerfull level 6 creatures; I noticed something about the pit lords:

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">
Pit Lords are the elite warriors of the Inferno realm. They exist only to spread chaos on death in the outer world. They excel in both might and magic, and can cast devastating meteor showers. On top of that they all possess a vorpal sword that will take an additional soul for every creature killed.

Pit fiends are the most skilled warriors amongst Inferno troops. They also have the ability to cast fireballs or spells to weaken the enemy. Gifted in both defense and attack, these creatures are the backbone of any successful strategy.
</div></BLOCKQUOTE>

So these guys are good at their attack AND defense, they are powerfull WARRIORS and they can CAST SPELLS! In addition, their sword got an ability too... What can't they do???

Necropolis - the Vampire Lord looks like he's wearing a halloween costume; Ghost is the only creature that it's representation on the battle field includes more than 1 creature; It's good the skeletons got something to do for a change (most of the time I just passed their turn), considering you got a lot of them.

Academy - It's not my favourite town anyway but as long as the Genies are not random-spell-casters and the Gremlins and Gargoyle got a special ability then It's fine by me! otherwise, it's just a booooring town.

Dungeon - nice! Dark Elves looking good! I wonder how many squares can Hydras take in the battle field (got it? Squires? ); I hope those new units won't disappoint us.

I agree

[Lith_Maethor]

lesse.... first, we take the factions...

Haven/Castle: peasants, archers, knights, griffins, monks, cavaliers and angels... nothing new here, just your vanilla army, never my fave, still nice

Inferno: finally away from the catholic hell imagery, i simple love these guys... and of course the succubus is my favorite (lousy pun, i know)

Necropolis: oh baby! never the necros looked this good... especially the fang boys... one of the best towns all around ...not so sure i like the dragons here, but that may be because i never liked bone/gost dragons

Dungeon: ...to quote Joey... "how you doin?" ...bootiful! ...and not just because of the ladies... me likes... alot ...has a certain edge

Academy: a line-up i don't like much in parts (gremlins... bleh) but i like the new arabian twist... i may finally be interested in this town

Sylvan: would rather see dendroids as highest level and dragons out, but will live with it... i just loooove the rest... can't wait for artwork

EDIT:
the rest, after i get some of that... yes, rest
