The Heroes Round Table

In H3, there was no choice. If you had the cash to spare, you bought whatever war machines you could because they were cheap and it was better to have them than not (even if you didn't have the skills). Sorry to be offtopic but in H3 i never buy a ballista if i don't have the skill because it shoot...

Fist of wrath is really the only one that I can't find a single use for, it doesn't even always clear out mirror images. Maybe I misunderstand you, but that is fine in my opinion, mirror images are incorporeal (any non-magical attack against it has 50% chance to fail) and Fist of Wrath deals physic...

I think warlocks can learn necromancy in heroes 2, but not in heroes 3. The fire magic thing can be easily tested with a magic university, knights can learn it.

Hello, here is the full list: estates: death knight fire magic: beastmaster, ranger first aid: necromancer, death knight leadership: necromancer, death knight navigation: battle mage resistance: warlock, witch, wizard, elementalist water magic: overlord, barbarian These classes can learn the seconda...

Maybe you guys misunderstood him, I think he is not talking about the ultimate skill but the ultimate level of the racial skill.
You can reach that only with the pendant of mastery artifact as I know.

Sorry, but I do not see much point in this sheet... How did town statistics come into picture? Noone said the heroes were played with their own towns. Also the statistics for not used heroes... I think it shows their strength that they are picked so few times. Adding 50 wins and 50 losses for a hero...

So now my build order is: Mage Guild 1 Upgraded workshop Golem factory Mage tower Altar of wishes Golden pavillion Cloud temple Hello, though i have not much experience on 130 or 160% settings, i would consider switching day 1 and day 2 builds. Master Gremlins can help on day 1 to conquer mines. On...

I don't understand! Why would you target to hit your own units? Just aim to the side or something. I've almost never hit my own units with Magogs. I don't think magogs can attack a certain hex on the battlefield (as you can do with fireball spell), they can attack only creatures. But the favorite s...

Hello, Good suggestions generally in my opinion, I would have a few remarks though: Forged artifact: "When two artefacts share the same property, their average is assigned to the forged artefact." Maybe assigning the higher value would be better (at least would be more logical to me at fir...

We also did not find a way into the NE corner, probably the Den of Thieves is not placed correctly. I would leave one artifact merchant in either the starting town or Arcadia so the player can sell the junk but I would also remove all the others. I ended up with my main hero having full backpack whi...

... nor do I have any units with a speed higher than 6 (unless I upgrade griffins which I don't want to), what would I do to minimize marksman casualties? Don't bring them into battle against shooters. If you really need them to beat the monsters, it may help if you advance with your fast walkers/f...

I think my lucky decision was that I left the rampart area once I saw their army (something like 210 gold dragons against ~80 archangels + ~80 titans - not to mention the grand elves and other stuff). I tried it and the dragons killed all my angels with a lucky strike - and I said "no, thank yo...

Yes, I also started to use Dracon because he has higher stats and logistics + sorcery instead of eagle eye + scholar. Against the orange for me what worked was to stay next to the blue border guard with Gunnar (having only 1 fast unit) and next turn (for me on 337) after opening the guard he reached...

I finished the map (in the 5th month), and would have some more comments. The underground part was too easy. I got two huge titan stacks (one on the barbarian land and one underground) which made all the fights very simple. Biggest army (except the two main enemy heroes) I fought was like 60 ghost d...

I have killed the teal, purple, orange and tan players. I'm at 417, I had the feeling that I was too slow but now I am not sure, things just became easier as I advanced. I had absolutely no problem with the inferno and barbarian areas, those enemy heroes rely too much upon one stack (devils, behemot...

I managed to kill the last teal hero by defending in the castle. Destroyed the catapult, then blinded the units one by one and shot them. The first strike of the archs killed 37 titans but i guess there is no way to avoid such losses when the enemy has so many troops. Killed also the 3 remaining und...

Hello, i had a little time and took a quick look. please note that i do not have much experience with playtesting maps and probably also won't have much time ;) my first problem was the garrison, kind of annoying to reload just because the monsters got high morale. spirit of oppression would help (b...

This is quite easy to try out... I created a small map, the attacker with 100 cerberi + bless, the defender with 3 x 1000 rogues. Primary skills set so the attack of the cerberi is the same as the defense of the rogues. Started a hotseat game and positioned the rogues properly, then attacked with th...

I once won the Evil final battle scenario in 8 days using the carryover troops instead of the Crown. It definitely takes longer to get the troops, but the payoff in time is huge. And no, I didn't arrive at that solution myself. I read someone's story of a really high speed campaign victory and exec...

yes, you are right.
i was thinking about serpent fly but wrote the wrong name. and i was also wrong about the movement of the hero (just checked it on a map).
at least the method to create the hero with no troops is correct
