[weaktaz]

hi Guys.at 0.950 i find 10 heros in taverns.after 26 days(game play) one by one start leave my party...:s. now i have only 6 of them and the problem is that i lost the weapons and armors i give them .

each one has certain likes and dislikes that will eventually cause them to leave your party. Most have at few other NPC's that they don't get along with, plus some actions they don't care for (some don't like looting villages, as an example). There's a thread where a few folks have figured out which NPC's don't like which ones, run a search and you should be able to find it easily.

based on what the information available I don't think it's possible to keep them all, at least not currently. Supposedly they go back into the taverns once they leave your party, but if you added them again I'm sure they would just leave again.

The Band of Warriors mod for .903 had about 26 or 27 different heroes available and they did make for an pretty unstoppable fighting force once you got them all, or at least most of them leveled up. I usually had to keep 2 of them out of the party to avoid running into the unit type cap. They're already talking about doing away with the likes/dislikes with regards to heroes but since the module system hasn't even been released yet it'll probably be a little bit until we see any mods for .95x.

I really think they should at least make the hero stop fighting with each other. This system is one of the only complaints I have against this game.

I like it.  It makes them more than meat shields or artillery.  But then, I'm a longtime Baldur's Gate player--I'm used to in-fighting and even party members turning on me for being an evil bastard (or a goody two-shoes--ah, Xzar...).

I think the new system is superb. Particularly the NPC getting their backs up over player actions.

Burn a village, slaughter some peasants and one of the bleeding hearts has a winge,... and then gets told to get back in line! Superb!

I think the maximum number you can keep without fighting works out to eight heroes.

8 npcs?not bad.but i think when npcs leave ur party they should give back the items that they had from you.when i lost 4 heroes it really hurts...i lost items that cost to me 5000 gold  .it was gold from tournaments .(btw amazing idea the tournaments!!!really good work.)

Yes they should give back their armor/arms OR at least leave you some money when they leave your party..
But I dont think thats ever gonna happen

I like this system.
After all, they're heroes, few supersoldiers instead of supersoldier army.

You'll find the again eventually.  When you do, re-hire them (it's free), strip them naked and kick them back to the curb.

there are about 17 heros you can get

The new hero depth and personality is the best part of 0.950. Once you play for a few hours and understand it, you can restart and try to only get companions that agree with each other and your play style.
