This is a sizeable combination of mods from an old Russian fan forum for Heroes 5 modding. There are graphical changes to some creatures, rebalancing on units, spells, artifacts, passives, and more. Most notably, this mod bumps up neutral creature generation. ONLY AVAILABE IN RUSSIAN

Changelogs
Version 2.3
Fixed neutral creature spawn rates from being x10 to x2
Version 2.2
Readded chonky treents back into the pack. Should work. Removed most Dungeon units ability to cast Earth Spikes at master level. Removed some spells from Dungeon dragons list, now they should only have fire based spells. Removed Storm Titans ability to cast chain lightning. Might add something to compensate in the future. Slight rebalancing of other units with ridiculous attack, defence and initiative stats. -Most notably: -Obsidian (golden) golems got their damage adjusted. Scaled back from 5-20 to a more reasonable 5-10. -Removed defense from Spectral Dragons and nerfed their HP heavily. Added incorporeal status to compensate. Well see how it goes.
Version 2.1
Fixed major bug which didnt take into account modified creature stats during gameplay. Cyclops lasers are back temporarily, probably.
Version 2.0
Fixed some broken stuff. The whole thing should be more or less balanced, but spicy.
Version 1.9
Removed some leftovers from an unsuccessful mod merge from 2010. Treents should now be chonky and not abominations of polygons all over the map. Removed 3rd cyclops's upgrade the ability to shoot lazers.
Version 1.8
Removed dwarfs ability to throw pickaxes at people. Melee only now.
Version 1.7
Who knows what happened 10 years ago.
I could spend some hours trying to tag all the changes in this mod, however I'm not going to do it. All that needs to be said is that its a big compilation of a bunch of mods made back in 2008-2009. I absolutely cant tag all involved authors since I don't know where their work stops and my custom tweaks begin. All I can say is that it was made possible due to help from some great people, mainly Mr. Silver, who taught me all about modding. Brief summary of changes: Starting neutral creatures spawn quantity is tripled or maybe doubled. Some graphical changes to heroes and creatures. Rebalancing of skills. Rebalancing of artifacts. Rebalancing of spells. Rebalancing of stuff. Rebalancing of passives (heroes and towns). Unlocks campaign heroes in scenarios. (Some are unpatched and very broken, potentially very fun) Some possibly extremely broken things included, but hopefully patched out already. Only available in russian. (The txt translation can be deleted manually from the .pak file, however the descriptions will not match with what the rebalanced skills do.)
I will try to update the mod in the future. No promises.
The mod will conflict with any other mod that changes creature stats, rpg stats or hero textures.
