If you think ratio's bad, MM1 had an additional human male and gnome male, for a 5:1 male-to-female ratio.How long in game before the non human beasts rape the sole human female?My first party will be:
Gallard the Defender, dwarf male
Xenon the Hunter, Orc male
Zerena the Freemage, human female
Wizbang the Druid, elf male
I'll probably use spear and bow with Hunter, axe and crossbow with Defender.

Yes Yes. Embrace your inner mondblut.
My party will be :
Male Human Crusader
Female Elf Blade Dancer
Female Human Freemage
Male Dwarf Runepriest
Ill probably use some random fantasy name gen for thier names.
About the Mercenary, I think they should reduce crossbow to Expert and add a GM weapon. With GM weapon+ GM Warfare + master 2H should be able fuck shit up in melee.
Can anyone link/explain what the different stats affect?

Assuming you mean the main attributes?
Might increases HP very slightly, and increases melee damage dramatically.
Perception increases all attack values (hit %) and ranged damage dramatically.
Magic increases MP very slightly, and increases all magic power dramatically (includes heals afaik, though not entirely sure on this).
Spirit increases MP at a much higher rate than Magic.
Destiny increases crit chance, but IMO not really worth it considering the rate of increase is slow, + Might & Magic are just way too good in direct damage increases.

Destiny is useful in at least one Grandmastery skill, if not more.
Chaotic_Heretic That is exactly the party choice I am considering, save I am thinking about swapping the Runepriest for something else. Probably won't though
Hope the game will have necrophilic torture porn like MM6

Hmm I wonder if it's midnight PST for the release. Since Steam is west coast USA I think...
That would mean about an hour to go.
I keep checking Uplay obsessively...

From what I have read, the game will be unlocked on steam at 6pm GMT, which is almost exactly 11 hours from now. However, there is a very slight possibility it could be unlocked in under an hour from now if someone misread GST as GMT. Even then though steam typically updates at 6pm GMT, so only those wil direct Uplay access will be able to update the game and start playing. (even box version folks will need to update a 8GB patch because the DVD contains the Beta version, not the final version)
The first DLC and deluxe dungeon have also been announced, but no ETA on when they will be available.
Ofcourse, this being Ubisoft and this being a Unity3d game, expect bugs and many performance related patches.

I'll be mostly using dwarves.
A defender, a scout and a rune priest. Not sure about the last but probably either a druid or a freemage.

Lots of crunchy info rearding mastery levels of skills and spells and what they do. These are as per the early access, all skills and spells may have gone extensive retooling. Shamelessly copy/pasta'd + formatted from the Ubi forii.
The spells especially can change drastically in their skill expertise versions: For instance, Light Orb only produces a light source at novice level. At master level it is an attack spell that blinds enemies. At GM level it enhances all healing spells cast on a party member(s). Pretty sweet, as it means each spell is actually 4 potential spells rolled into one, many with their own animations.
Only problem is, if a pc has multiple skill levels in a spell skill, can he choose which version of the spell to cast?
