The Heroes Round Table

I just don't get why the Dryad and the Pixie are considered two different units this time, but in H5 one was an upgrade of the other.

So, any chance to try out the caravans yet? Just curious to hear how they are working.

Does the Area of Control thing still exist from H6?



I personally disliked that aspect and wished it was the simple "flag it and you own it" method.

I chose the other one because I didn't see any catapults in your combats.

Just seems lazy to me, which really shouldn't be a surprise at this point.

We've never had the catapult on screen when it couldn't be used before, so why start now.

Now that this video, which was previously pulled, is now officially shown by Ubi I'm hoping someone has an answer to this.

Skip to 6:20 of the video for the issue I question.

Why is there a catapult on the battlefield when there is no castle or wall to be attacked?

I'm hoping someone saw it before it was taken down. Not this Twitch video, but there was another Haven video posted that has since been blocked by Ubisoft. Anyway, in it they showed a combat between the user's Haven army and a group of Apprentices. In the Haven army they had the healing Sister and a...

That's good to hear Oak and I can appreciate that it takes a bit more work, but I cannot accept that what we got for H6 was the best they could do. There was little difference between H5 and H6, yet I had no problem using the H5 editor. The H6 editor on the other hand required a Masters degree in ar...

I never heard that rumor before about using someone else's editor. Might make sense as to why it was so drastically different than the H5 one. Oh, and to be fair as CH isn't the only place that posts maps, here are numbers pulled from Maps4Heroes.com. H3: 1242 H4: 631 H5: 715 H6: 70 While there is a...

If anything, Ubisoft should look at HoMM4 map editor. You can say whatever you want about game itself but its editor is the best in HoMM saga. That one was good too. I only go back to the H3 editor because as someone who hated having to place mountains and trees individually all over the place, the...

You know what I hear when I read #3's answer?



"Once again we have no clue how to simplify a map editor and it's still going to be nearly impossible to learn like it was with Heroes VI."



Heaven forbid someone actually looks at the H3 editor and gets a clue.

@King Imp There's no difference in speed between PCI 2.0 and 2.1 but it was added some more wattage to the PCI slot. So, it doesn't matter. So, even though my system says it can only go up to 2.0, I can put in a card that is 2.1 or even 3.0 and it will work? As for the card in question, that's alre...

Speaking of the game requirements, I have a question I hope those of you who are more tech savvy than me (that would probably be 99% of you) can answer. Based on what I saw on the recommended config, my system is still better that what it calls for on the processor and RAM. Where I am going to have ...

Most fans didn't care much for the skill system developed for H6, but it seems UBI is addressing the weak skill system of H6 as it develops H7, turning back to something more in line with what fans want. Unless I'm missing something, which in my case wouldn't be a surprise, I still do not get what ...

After years of ignoring North America in the release of special editions, we here at Celestial Heavens are very happy to see Ubisoft finally conceding that the US market is important; the dedicated American fans of the franchise will be glad to have the Collector's Edition box available to them. It...

At least this skillwheel is part of the game and we don't have to open a separate file like we did in H5.

That looks damn good for an alpha then.

I remember when I got my hands on the alpha of Heroes V. It looked nothing like what the final product became.

I just received my copy of Game Informer the other day and they are already previewing this game.

Just curious if anyone has heard anything on how the progress is coming along and if we're close to a release.

I just hope in honor of this anniversary they get Heroes VII right since Lord knows they dropped the ball on the previous two.

But Ubi released this in the past, so they obviously have access to all of it.
