I guess they just don't want HOMM to be anymore this cute little strategy game where one could easily spend hours … They want something bigger. They began with it - imho - with HOMM V.
And maybe … Maybe they are even aiming at a different target audience now ? : Those who liked Elven Legacy, perhaps ?
I don't know. I'm confused.
Don't try so hard to put things in containers

It's Heroes of Might and Magic, with a few extra things. You'll still have your towns, recruit units, build armies and move around the map.
