The Heroes Round Table

First. I'm playing this on hard and I WILL finnish this mission on hard... :mad: I've read quite a bit about other players' strategies and it has helped but I am still getting my a$$ kicked. My biggest problem is I'm not getting enough units fast enough. And I need them to take the second city at th...

After this long absence and some hectic War of the Ring playing I have made the following conclusions: First. This is the first time I play anything outside the usual games and outside the cope of D&D. So my oppinion might not be that informed: The Game (WotR)is wonderful! We (me and me Brother)...

@Jolly joker. That Titan looks amazing! Seem to be a old game but with a very loyal following... some good strategy involved. You seem to play your engaged battles on a another map (?). There's a Valley games edition 2008 - a reprint of the original Avalon Hill title. Looks stunning... I want this! ...

@Kalah. Thanks for the link (your right, that forum is a must-know) and tips... I feel a bit stupid now about some of my complaints... and OMG! That extended mod is incredible!!! 8| Communities sometimes REALLY surprise me (Reason why I cannot turn to consoles). It's like Freespace 2 - incredible ad...

@Thundertitan - Well, I don't want to copy the 3D physical model as such, just make a cardboard paper printed edition with a image of a Space marine slapped on (like a photo of the figurine itself or even make my own artwork). @Angelspirit - Thanks for that link! I found this: https://www.celestialh...

Lol! Yeah, I guess any boardgame could be really intense depending on the situation. D&D with rapists and murderers in a cellblock is going to be different than your normal geek with a fake cotton beard and a cloak stolen from mom's wardrobe. And I agree with you there. Warhammer is overpriced. ...

Bought a lot from the bargain bin. I guess King Kong is not bad for it's age. Just very short. Colin Mcrae Dirt is incredible but worth it if you are into these games or just something different and... if you have the system (it wants a monster - minimum 8800 GT) (But I'm playing HoMMV Gold a LOT mo...

I'm kinda junping in here from the sideline: But this game is taking up dust in my cupboard because I got bored and very irretated. I want to gve it a chance again but I need to know some things: Why is everything in the game so stretched out (time). I mean, checking ou the scenery of the universe w...

I don't want to get too much heat for hoping/saying this: I don't mind DRM as long as hackers/pirates give me a small alternative installation file to bypass this nonsense (so I don't need to download the whole bloody thing). I have found one for Lost Planet while I waited for it's delivery, and onl...

@Lord13. Yes, Warhammer is way too expensive, and too FEW people around who's playing it (at least in my country - South africa). Painting the Figurines is great! The War fo the Ring contains a ton of beatiful figurines begging for color! One guy who tried it to paint them all took more than 2 month...

YOU ARE KIDDING ME!!! We are being ripped off :flame: I'm from South Africa... $10, thats about a R100. Could be more but still, it's insanely cheap. Wait, is'n't the 128kbs slow? My dad uses 512 or 1024 kbs or something like that at his business. So, how much would that be... 512 for instance in yo...

I want to play this, but... Me and my brother went for a stroll through a few malls yesterday, to check out whats new on the shelf. Lo and Behold! Dawn of War II!!! And... oh no, online activation, steam etc. etc. (Well, actually I kinda expected this). I was looking forward to the game (even if it ...

@Klaymen - twilight struggle? Is that like a expansion or something different? War of the Ring - did you enjoy it? I know many reviewers think its great. @Kristo - 13 hours!? Mmm, I've heard some people get VERY frstrated with it. Still, I'm (we) will give it a try. HOMM simplified? Well, I don't th...

Dunno if this is too off-topic (pc games), but I kind of strolled into the boardgame world via HoMM V through warhammer II (great game in its own right, very dissapointing compared to previous release) and finally Warhammer fantasy (boardgame). Looooong story. So, I've ordered myself Twilight Imperi...

@ Parcaleste. Level 40! Mentoring sounds incredible. I always drag my whole army around and stomp across the land on a personal death march... or I used to. @ Phoenixreborn. Why cheating? If it's in the game, a skill or attribute or spell and not a cheatcode or something... is'nt it fair game? @ Wol...

Thanks for the suggestions! I'll give the Angels a fair try tonight. I just felt they did'nt do much. Compare them to archers. Archers are cheap and in numbers they rock. With archery skill they really shine. Mmm, will see. I've read somewhere that there is a strategy involving only Paladins a and A...

I downloaded the manual and it is quite a big difference - thanks! So anyway... what I've figured out over the weekend: Using every turn resourcefully makes a big difference I use my Heroes mostly to transport troops and only build up one... although, I did have a problem covering my backside at a l...

@ Lakely. I'm playing Haven and I bumped into a mass (1K) of Nightmares. Pretty intense stuff ;) @Wolfsburg. Thanks for the advice! As I said, I have no problem at the moment with cheating AI. It's just the strategy I'm a bit stuck with. The manual is pretty weak. It only gives you the VERY bare ess...

I'm a bit new to MM. A week ago I Lended my brother's game and gave it a shot. I originally turned up my nose for the chessboard game style and avoided the game. My brother reckond it's good but who cares what you're little brother says - heh! This is really a terrific game. I ordered the Gold editi...
