Heroes Of Might And Magic

Submitted 8 years ago

I thought of what you people at Ubisoft could do to make another good Heroes of Might and Magic game, and I have a fair idea for the base to build the storyline off of. There are at least two ways I can think of to do it. The first would be to have it where there for the story mode, a very strange and surprising event has happened. Right after the skull of the seventh dragon (the one who's body somehow is what traps the demons in hell) is destroyed, sealing away the demons semi-permanently (they can still funnel through a few cracks, but not very many at a time, that type of thing) portals have started appearing all over Ashan, and strange people have been porting through them. People like the Gryphonhearts, and the Ironfists. In the pretty much failed HOMM IV, they already have this set up with the blowing up of the planet, and the fleeing to another world. This event of the sudden mass appearance of large numbers of people, monsters (even new ones)and 'new' royalty would naturally result in clashes, and you could tell the undoubtedly interesting story of what all happens through either, or both sides very easily. This would also let you use a virtually infinite supply of legacy heroes people loved, and not get any backlash over how they got to Ashan, or what happened to them, and so forth.

The other way you could build the story on, would be to maybe (though not necessarily) have a few of the heroes from the old HOMM (guys people loved from HoMM 2 and 3) series be all that got portaled into the middle of Ashan (have Roland, and Cathrine appear in the throne room of the 'Holy' human empire of Elrath, or some thing like that! The reaction of the people there to that, and scene that would create would be quite humorous.) and the rest of the people (like the heroes 4 cast) got put on the other side of the planet on a different continent. Then it could be that the original inhabitants send expeditions out, found where they were, and that sparks off a whole other series of events.

In both, or in an expansion of the game, you could have it where the hell hole the demons are trapped in is in greater turmoil, and chaos than normal, because the old HOMM demons have suddenly been porting in there, causing things to get really crowded, and starting wars between the 'old' demons and the 'new' ones!
