0002812: [Feature request] New artifact class with visual representation - Banners
New artifact class - Banner

Currenty the only function of the pole in battle heroes def is to difference color of the player. How about changing it for special class artifact - only one per hero. It would contain simple symbols so they are to be distinguished easily on a flag, and also would change the color depending on the player as well.

In my mind they would be quite powerful and would grant bonus for all units in army.

For example:
1) All allied stack of creatures receive 10% less damage from all attacks
2) Increases by 10% the speed of all allied stack of creatures
3) Increases by 10% the damage inflicted by all allied stack of creatures

Where should such artefact be put (in hero screen)?

It could be miscellaneous slot, or completely new slot.

It is more logical to have new slot as it can be only one banner at same time. Then question is how it should look in hero screen? Other question is should we introduce generic artefact slot addition feature?

I think that there are two options for banners which won't make hero screen too clustered. I would say "1" is better since they would be artifacts, not war machines.

I think that every new option is welcomed, but we have a lot of slots already, and I can't think of nothing other than banners which would require new artefact slot and new interesting mechanics

P.S. I have added potential visualization of how it could look, so "1" is referring to hero screen image
