Talk:Angel and Archangel
Trivia
Fafner, what did you mean when you wrote "sans" in the trivia section?--FirePaladin2 (talk) 14:20, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- Just wanted to make sure (could have been a spelling mistake?). Also, the Angels in MM7 do have a similar helmet.--FirePaladin2 (talk) 15:20, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- Mortarial is correct. Without something, except sth, minus sth, everything apart from sth. What other word could it be mistaken for? Anyway Angel and Archangel in Heroes 3 definitely don't wear helmets and while I suppose they could wear necklaces, I'm not seeing any on Angel, and Archangel could hide a plate gorget under that glorious Byzantine beard. And here I was thinking to sneak some ninja edits under your noses... :D -Fafner (talk) 15:44, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

Q: What is the origin of angels and archangels? Don’t worry, we won’t have a heart attack.
A: Over the course of my time at New World, on occasion, typically when taking a break, I would wander into Paul Rattner’s office. Even though MM6 was in mid production, Paul was already thinking about MM7, so I made sure to update him on what was happening with HoMM3. When I told him about the changes to the factions, I specifically mentioned the Angels. At that point in time, Paul was essentially the lore master for the MM universe. On the topic of the Angels and Arch Angels, he proposed they be sophisticated robots created by the Ancients to hunt down and eradicate the Kreegans. I agreed, and we ran with it.
