Each time a Hero advances to a new level, you'll be able to get a boost in or learn one of three skills: combat skills that increase troop morale and ability; magic skills that allow the casting of new types of spells; and nobility skills that can increase rates of production and loyalty.
Another change in Heroes is they're no longer disembodied, spell-flinging entities in combat; they're actual battlefield units, weak and fragile at first, but as they advance, they can become as powerful as any large assembly of troops.
Keeping your Hero protected is a must, as upon their death, they're captured and transported to a prison in an enemy town.

Heroes accrue experience after each battle; when they gain enough experience points, a hero ‘levels up’ and can raise attributes like attack rating, defense rating and spell points.
Heroes can also upgrade their skills when they level up, which gives them more abilities in melee and magic.
Heroes can even be captured and held prisoner in the conquering hero’s town.
