I'd say elves would have that hero if any army would.

Sorry for a second post but i have another suggestion...

Since there are only 24 spells, and multiple spellcasters, why not have a specific area on your interface, along the left hand side for example, with buttons to shortcut to your spells you already know.

After clicking the button, a ring would show indicating the area your spellcasters can cast upon, if they only have a limited range, and if you target outside the ring, the nearest caster will move to cast on that locale.


P.S. Still rootin for that hero!

EDIT: Maybe we could have it so that if your mage is in range of a spell he can counter, he will automatically cast the countering spell.

I like the Idea of magic In game where If used wisely and at the right time It can sway the battle; In that way It Is true to the genre as In strategic.
From the Information revealed It looks for the most part that It will be that way; ie using magic to aid the troops In their task or defending the troops while they attempt to complete their task but the biggest focus being on the troops.
My greatest fear Is that It would be used as a means of one on one duel and so less strategic and more reaction.
I am curious If wizards can group up for a cumulative effect.

Yeah, i talked about cumulative effects in some other post

I don't think they will because it all depends on how much mana will be in that location. There will not just be hero/wizard battles.

Yes I read that post I got the Impression you could turn up with mana but then collect used mana after cool down period.
I'm pleased there won't be any dueling; I'm an old fart and my reaction time Isn't fast enough.
