my well thought out replay
Q1 (The Hero Role)
2. Heroes should be on battle field (Heroes 4 style)
or
3. Heroes should not particpate personally in battle. (Heroes 1-Heroes 3 style.)
As much as I like the idea of them being on the battlefield, it just didn't work in 4. But if it did work that would be awesome.
Q2 (How much is it reasonable that a Hero can add to an army's offence and defence? Through skills and attributes)
5. 200-400%
Justification: At first I thought 50-100 was reasonable, but then I thought about how much high level heroes contributed to your army's strength in H2 and 3 which is EASILY over 100% for both games. In H3, skills typically raised the effectiveness of your army by ~8% per level (excluding skills like Eagle Eye) and stats points were worth ~5% each uniformly (stats were worth double in H2). Most level 1 heroes start with ~25% boost already! (By the way, I basically want it to be on par with Heroes 3)
Q3 (Should Heroes be able to have side-kicks/henchmen or war machines?)
D. War machines.
Side-kicks seems to be the same thing as artifacts, so why have both? One note on war machines, they should be upgradeable, just like units (except the catapult which is a special case).
Q4 (What should decide which spells a Hero have access to barring artifacts or scrolls which can give heroes additional spells)
1. Any spell the Hero has learnt in the game (H2 - H4 style)
Works well. Why change it?
Q5 (Which level of diplomacy do you want in the game?)
2. Fixed allies on the Map.
Although good on paper, I've never seen it work well in a video game. Dynamic allies only opens opportunities to exploit the computer, and introduce griefing in multiplayer.
Q6 (Assuming you have diplomacy which of the following do you want)
B. Ability to trade by giving (H3 style)
Q7 (Assuming you can trade with other players which of the following do you want tradeable)
A. Towns.
C. Flagged Map Structures. (Mines etcetera)
E. Artifacts.
F. Normal resources.
Heroes 3 functionality was fully acceptable, however.
Q8 (How much should a Hero minor artifact be able to add to an army's effectiveness?)
2. 10-20%
Treasure: <10, Minor: 10~20, Major: 20~30, Relic: 30~50
Q9 (Stacking creatures)
3. Creature stacks should work as before.
This is in the definition of Heroes, to me. There are plenty of other games if you don't want creature stacking.
Q10 (How many Towns would you like to see)
4. 6 or more.
Q11 (How many creatures counting upgrades in each town?)
3. 13-16 (H3)
I prefer fewer castles, but more depth to each one. (Vertical depth over horizontal depth, in this case)
Q12 (How many upgrades for each creature in town?)
1. All creatures should have one upgrade. (H3 style)
I find that it adds both continuity and depth.
Q13 (Magic Schools and Towns)
3. Use 3-6 magic schools, and let each town produce some spells for each school (H3 style)
More versatility than most of the other options, but you still get optional specialization.
Q14 (How many levels for spells?)
2. 5
No reason to change this.
Q15 (How do you want the magic schools?)
2. Dedicated schools with unique spells (H4)
or
3. Dedicated schools but some spells are shared between schools (H3)
I don't care between these two, because there is so little difference.
Q16 (Should there be spells for....)
A. Global spells affecting all creatures (possible in radius from a Hero or a Town)
B. Spells directly affecting cities.
D. Altering the adventure map.
E. Summonng guards to Mines (H2 style)
All good possibilities except the permanent summons. I Don't know if they would all be good gameplay mechanics, but they're all good possibilities.
Q17 (Which of the following do you want to see during a siege of a city)
A. Shooting turrets. (increasing strength depending on hero characteristics and town upgrades)
C. Garrison mage/tower casting spells.
D. Traps and moats harming attackers.
F. Specialized defence strutcure.
G. Catapults to break down walls and gate.
Q18 (How many secondary skills for heroes?)
2. 20-29
Let's not get too complex.
Q19 (How many skill levels for the secondary skills?)
2. 4
Although 3 works great, 5 seemed to be too much. Try 4 and see how it works.
Q20 (How tightly should skills depend on each other)
1. Not at all. (H2-H3)
or
2. Losely connected with groups.
It's good to have flexibility. But sometimes too much flexibility is equivalent to imbalance.
Q21 (Should Hero class depend on secondary skill?)
I couldn't figure out what option meant leave it like classes in Heroes 3, which is my choice- where it's already defined when you recruit the hero.
Q22 (Assuming there are skill groups. How many skills in each group?)
3. 5 or more skills
Shouldn't be able to get all of them though.
Q23 (Should creatures require upkeep?)
2. No
Q24 (Do you want the one build/day limit to stay?)
1. Yes
Q25 (Which restriction on mixing creatures and heroes in armies do you prefer?)
1. All armies have exactly one Hero. (H2-H3 Style)
or
3. Creatures can move around without Heroes. (H4 style)
Totally depends on how heroes work in Q1.
Q26 (Which limit do you want for recruiting Heroes?)
1. No limit, as long as you can place Hero in an army or garrison. (H3)
There was a limit though.... 8 armies per player
Q27 (Should Heroes in basic classes start out identical?)
2. No
Q28 (Should heroes have specialties?)
1. Yes (like in H3)
Same question as above?
Q29 (If the answer above is yes should they)
A. Enhance secondary skills
B. Offer bonuses to certain creatures
C. Offer proficiency with certain spells
D. Other Miscellaneous, Adventure Map, Economical\Town advantages (please specify)
I find it strange that the resource bonus is listed with (please specify) and has probably discouraged many people from including it. Nothing wrong with those heroes that gave you extra gold or resources.
Q30 (Maximum City Hall weekly income should cover)
2. 50%-75% No Capitol
4. 100%-150% W/Capitol
Q31 (How important is a Random Map Generator in first release to you)
4. Not important.
Very Important sometime though. Make sure it's tweaked so it's very customizable and makes good maps.
Q32 (How important is multi player in the first relesase?)
4. Not important.
Slows release too much.
Q33 (How important is an improved map editor (compared to the feature level in H4?)
3. Important.
Not too much improved though. I don't want the game to be modifiable enough that I have to "learn" maps that I download.
Q34 (How important is possibility to modify the game, with custom graphics, sounds or similar?)
4. Not important.
I would consider this detrimental. In Warcraft 3 this has increased download size for maps and IMHO added *nothing* to the game (unless worse graphics/sounds is included in the map/patch which is almost invariably the case. Sorry, there's something about your job depending on how good something looks that just makes it better). Besides if you want to do this you can always mod the game. That's acceptable and even encourgeable.
Q35 (What do you think of Fog of War?)
3. Make it an option. (Select when Map is started.)
Q36 (What do you think of mobile guards?)
3. Make it an option.
Why wasn't this a choice?
Q37 (Do you want "line of sight" rules to restrict vision on the adventure Map?)
2. No
Unnecessary complexity.
Q38 (How do you deal with heroes who retreat/surrender in battle?)
Retreat to your nearest castle. Surrender to any tavern you own, but recruitment is free.
Above all, keep the game simple. I've seen lots of other games that IMO have better gameplay mechanics, but due to their increased complexity are not as fun as Heroes. The reason I started playing Heroes is because I downloaded the Heroes 2 demo, jumped right into the game and figured it out instantly. But as I got better, it still offered new challenges.
"Minutes to learn, a lifetime to master." As long as that phrase holds true for the Heroes series, I will continue being a fan. If it's ever broken...

Some good questions on the poll.
Q21 (Should Hero class depend on secondary skill?)
I couldn't figure out what option meant leave it like classes in Heroes 3, which is my choice- where it's already defined when you recruit the hero.
=> I think option 2 is the closest to how it works with heroes 3. Though The wording in that option gives more flexibility to the heroes than was present in Heroes 3.
Q26 (Which limit do you want for recruiting Heroes?)
1. No limit, as long as you can place Hero in an army or garrison. (H3)
There was a limit though.... 8 armies per player
=> The number of wandering armies is a separate question. "An army" in the answer above meant having the hero in one of your (8?) wandering armies (I did not wanti to specify exactly how many armies a player may have in the answer.)
Q27 (Should Heroes in basic classes start out identical?)
2. No
Q28 (Should heroes have specialties?)
1. Yes (like in H3)
Same question as above?
=> No. Heroes can also differ in many other ways than specialities. For example in Heroes 3, Heroes of the same class started out with different secondary skills. You can also have more advanced options like giving level-up options based to a certain degree on a hero basis instead of a hero class basis.
Q29 (If the answer above is yes should they)
A. Enhance secondary skills
B. Offer bonuses to certain creatures
C. Offer proficiency with certain spells
D. Other Miscellaneous, Adventure Map, Economical\Town advantages (please specify)
I find it strange that the resource bonus is listed with (please specify) and has probably discouraged many people from including it. Nothing wrong with those heroes that gave you extra gold or resources.
=> I had hoped that some of the first answers would specify their own options so I could add them in. No such luck though. This is not one of the better questions in this poll.
Q36 (What do you think of mobile guards?)
3. Make it an option.
Why wasn't this a choice?
=> I considered this, but the feature only exists in heroes 4, where it is optional. So basically "Keep it" and "Make it an option" already means the same thing. I didn't feel like adding an option saying: "I want Mobile guards, and prevent player from turning them off." (Which is the option which is missing here.)

37-same as fog of war?? make it an option
38-There should be a system developed to deal with this problem. My suggestion is: Retreating should be an option, a hero would be able to escape a battle and be recruited at towns, Surrendur's (where the creatures remain alive) should only take place if the opponent agree's to let the losing hero-and army pay to leave, he could choose to decline and kill the army. To deal with hit/run- at the beginning of a battle the attacked hero would get the option of "playing to capture" or "capturing". This would create some disadvantage to the attacked hero-or to his army, but the attacking hero could not flee if this option was enacted. Only the attacked hero would be able to "capture" the attacker could not enact this.
