Heroes in Dawn of Fantasy

[Dijia37]

I think it would be awesome to have some form of customizable Heroes. I haven't heard anything saying there is so I thought I would bring it up and see what everyone thought on the matter.

I totally agree. I think you should be able to customize your hero from the beginning at the race selection screen when starting a new city.

I have to say that it's an interesting concept. Only problem is that the hero system could easily fall flat as being nothing unique other than a look if somebody finds "the perfect combination" of points for certian hero strengths.

it would be good to see the points that build up a hero's skills be gained randomly, depending on how you fight your battles and other strategies you employ. There may still be some ways to attempt to get "the best hero", but at least this system would make heroes not exactly the same.

[Dijia37]

They could have a level system that differs depending on your tendencies, for instance having you level in combat the more you kill or leveling in tactics for commanding your troops.

If we will have castles, we could have lords, which rule there and get exp and lvl, when your army is in the battle. In every 5 or 10 lvl we could get new buildings for castle and equipment for army.

Lords would be a cool idea.

[Alex Walz]

All units will be able to level up.

As for hero customization, we're not ready to discuss this quite yet, but it is something we definitely want to see. The level of detail will not be as significant as that of an RPG editor, but we hope to have various weapons and armour available as well as some other assets boosting individual stats.

If I was a girl I think you would excite me as it is I am having hard time coping with my feeling about you when you reveal information :P Heroes are sounding good.

Perhaps some kind of trait list for Heroes, both negative and positive that can be chosen from (say, on level up, or every 5 levels etc.) would be fun. One of the interesting things in the Total War series from Medieval on was the traits your generals/lords could gain; I wouldn't want the full random nature from TW replicated, but perhaps your choices of traits could be affected by your actions in game (Warlike traits for engaging in lots of battles, Management traits for well, managing). Choosing a negative trait could add points to another stat or open up other choices, leading to some interesting decisions.
