Heroes 5.5 RC15 Beta 1 release with 46 new artifacts, New Skillbook and Potion system
A new beta release of Might & Magic: Heroes 5.5 is ready for download and will greatly expand the amount of artifacts in the game. This update will revise the whole artifact system and adds 46 new artifacts and a new skillbook system with 22 skillbooks.
There will be many new artifact effects, new auto-quests, more ultimate artifacts, more half-set bonuses and an optional feature for consumable mana and move potions (disabled by default). All artifact text and set artifact text have been redone with uniform formatting to make them easier to read.

This version is still a beta and DOES NOT include campaigns, it seems completely stable, this is only about testing design choices. If the exe file gives an Antivirus warning, this is because of extensive reverse engineering to make unique modifications and nothing to worry about.
