The Heroes Round Table

Damn, and I thought that I had just finished the most difficult map in the campaign. I was hoping for an easy ride through the rest of the campaign.

I guess that I was just thinking that there should be a little more mystery, but then I guess it makes sense that no one would go on a quest for an artifact if they didn't know what it was.

And I though going up against Lord Slayer was supposed to be easier than the prior map. Oy.

Why do they show the actual artifact on the map? Is anyone really going to pick up the Fizbin of Misfortune when they can see what it is?

No, I wasn't able to do it without the reveal map cheat. I actually took a saved game that I had, where my main hero had the ultimate artifact sword and then started implementing your advice. It actually went fairly smoothly after getting in the mind set of not trying to look at the castles as the f...

I had a chance to get back to this campaign and Lord Ironfist has finally been successful. What worked for me was adapting Kristo's concept of defending territory, not castles. I had a few armies fanned out that kept sweeping forward, claiming castles and destroying any enemy armies that tried to ge...

She should get some penicillin.

What do you mean by 'computer's troops'?

You might wanna try my Heroes 1 patch. Makes Knight castle units quite a bit stronger and Warlock gets only 2 dragons per week. Where would I find that? And would it screw up an in-process campaign? I'm not sure any patches or mods will work with my version, though as the game is actually played th...

So what do you do? Do you form one or two large armies and just keep advancing, attacking any heroes that come your way? I think a more aggressive behaviour on my part is definitely required. If I lose this current go round of the scenario I will give that a try.

I think that there just must be something wrong with my playing style. I can get a few castles, maybe 4 or 5, but then I can't defend them and still expand, as I can't raise enough troops to both defend my existing holdings and supply more than 1 army. I usually get my Knight up to 15th or 16th leve...

For what it's worth, I hate chess these days. I think it's because the only time I'm exposed to is about 6 a.m. after pulling all night party session and I'm in a state where my brain just doesn't want to deal with such thought processes. In fact, watching others play at those moments makes me just ...

Maybe I'll do that if I don't succeed on this run through. I've actually resorted to using the show map cheat so that I can keep an eye on what's going on with the enemy.

You know, I can't believe that I'm having such trouble with a game that came out in 1995. How embarrassing.

I'm doomed.

Are there any working cheats for this game?

I'm definitely talking about the first HoMM. I decided to go back to the beginning and play all of the games' campaigns since I never have. I picked the Knight for my first go through on this campaign, and am having a terrible time on this map. This time I went all out to get the ultimate artifact, ...

I'm playing through this game for the 1st time and am stuck on the same scenario for at least the 6th time now. I just cannot win, as the other forces just swarm me. It's the 4th map, which is fairly and you have to conquer all of the other 3 opponents. I'm even willing to use cheats at this point i...

I seem to be able to avoid crashes, at least so far, by also slowing down my clicking and typing. I was getting a lot of crashes when transferring troops from one hero to another. But I take my time now and wait until the windows actually update before hitting OK or whatever and it seems to be worki...

Is there a way to trigger a lith stone without moving off it and back on?

And does anyone have a lot of crash problems with this game?

Very cool. Just to clarify, if I install the mod will I be able to play the original maps and campaigns with the enhancements of the mod? Now this game just needs a RMG that doesn't require player tweaking.
