The Heroes Round Table

He'll be back ... in 3-5 years.

Thanks, guys!

I have been able to talk to Gregory Fulton , the lead designer of HoMM3. I did so on behalf of a Russian fan community called Tavern of Might and Magic that I am a part of. Conversing with Greg was a great pleasure and an interesting, nostalgic experience. I asked him numerous questions regarding hi...

I doubt they had those plans when Heroes 1 came out, but they obviously started developing that storyline when Heroes 2 came out. This game has the first mention of the name "Enroth" and MM6 trailers in its menu.

1.) We're still not sure what name the planet of Enroth, Antagarich, Jadame etc. was supposed to have. Can you shed any light on this? Our best bet at the moment is that it is called "Enroth" as well. It's Enroth. The Oracle in MM6 introduces her-/itself as "Melian, Guardian of Enrot...

But it's presented as if it was the "canonical information researched by Slayer". Idiocy, to be short. Moderators, can this whole thread of irrelevant made-up crap be removed from the Heroes VI boards were it doesn't belong? I apologize to Slayer of Cliffracers and other visitors of this ...

Actually, TGS takes place a fair amount of time after the Reckoning, some time during or after the vanilla HoMM4 campaigns. Dogwoggle is present, and the Unity magic system has already been adapted by spellcaster, magic being divided into 5 schools. So, TGS takes place after Unity and Every Dog Has ...

It was supposed to make the visiting hero forget Secondary Skills you choose.

It's near-extinction on Enroth and Axeoth. On Enroth Kreegans were nearly totally wiped out in MM 6-7 and HoMM3: AB, and on Axeoth there is a minor population of the Kreegan who travelled there from that infested planet (some of whom are survivors from Eeofol, having fled to that planet during the R...

Looks rather good on paper, but I don't think MM1 really needs a remake. Another game set in one of the old worlds, like Varn or Xeen, would be nice, though.

Great stuff, thanks for posting the interview!

Merry Christmas!

The funny thing is, these graphics look practically nothing like those in MM 3-5.

It's obvious that the Corak Jen's referring to is the one from Webstation Beta 5.

One side note: You can see different Guardians types with each new MM game. Melian was the earliest model - he is living computer (something like HAL-9000 or various Star Trek computers). Escaton is next step - he's machine which looks like human (he obvious was based on Data from ST). Sheltem, Dra...

Mainly because I don't think that flying saucer easter egg was funny to begin with.

That's quite unfunny.

Thelonius , it's not necessary to go back to the original universe, just bringing it back would be enough. There is literally nothing preventing Ubisoft from making games set in both universes, especially if they hire JVC, in which case they'll more than likely be able to do the original universe o...

By the way, he stated in his recent interview for MM10 open dev blog that he'd like to make a new Might and Magic game. Who knows, maybe there's still hope that Ubi hires JVC and even allows him to create a new MM game (RPG or a spin-off, like Heroes) set in the original universe. That'd be awesome.
