Retinue[]
A hero's retinue may consist of up to 8 units. With the 1.03 patch, most of these retinue slots are locked and the hero must invest in Charisma to unlock them. These units can be brought into battle at the start of a match much like many other units of the player's selected race by using Army Setup Points. Note that as a retinue unit increases in level, their Army Setup Point cost will increase.
You can rename the units you get in the retinue after a battle by clicking on their names, writing what you want and then press enter or click elsewhere on the screen. Your unit should now bear the new name.

Notes:
- Eight heroes, including all non race default heroes, have no 'Can't build' speech line (voice's codes AXH0 to AXH7).
- The 'No mana' speech line is only heard if there is not enough mana, if the player can't cast the spell it can't be heard (it's grayed in the spell book).
- Each hero gets three cabalistic speech lines, used when he/she casts spells.
