Troop mixing between factions in Skirmish mode

36 votes

I would like an option to turn on troop mixing when playing skirmish mode.

Details would include another option when capturing enemy castles/settlements, where the player may continue to build and recruit troops, even if it’s a different faction. I would also like to have the option of whether to “raid” or “hire” when interacting with neutral dwellings of other factions when troop mixing is enabled. And, if possible, the small and large camps could pull from all the factions rather than just your own.

That feature was really fun on Hero's Hour, having a human army along some demons while the Angel leads the charge was fun to see

"Add a game mode in which you can capture and use other faction towns." (suggested by Klotar on 2022-07-04), including upvotes (1) and comments (0), was merged into this suggestion.

This is the one feature I'm waiting for before buying this game, being able to mix troops is that important to me. Sunk so many hours into HoMM2 hot seat that had this option.

The fact that this is missing is a deal-breaker for me. I understand it makes the game harder to balance, but at least make it optional with a disclaimer. It follows that people who like HoMM don't care much about balance anyway.
