The Heroes Round Table

So I was on Discord when someone posted this little image: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/AI4JfhN47TSDyTc4rVfQImudaqMl5XHoyPCEMrfvwni4VgNS0CqrDVuwESt1r4tsGg=w412-h220-rw It turns out, that there's an App on Google Play called "Heroes&Magic" which is a knockoff of Heroes 3. Anyways, ...

When I get the chance, I plan on trying to play a game where I have a main hero, in the army of which a Ballista provides lots of firepower. Firstly, is it a good idea to invest in a Ballista build, or should I abandon the idea and try some other strategy? Secondly, what sort of hero would be best f...

Sometimes, I and a friend of mine like to play 1v1 games on 100% difficulty on randomly-generated XL maps (well, we only played against each other once and did some games where we were playing against the AI). As far as rules go, there are none. Anything and everything is allowed. We play the origin...

As some of you may know, I am currently playing through Heroes of Might and Magic 3 on the Impossible difficulty. At a few points in the game, abusing the AI proved a valuable asset. During my playthrough, I have observed some quirks in the AI. Among them are: -Capturing mines seems to cause the AI ...

The Heroes 3 Wiki says that the Thieves' Guild building for the Cove in HotA opens 2 additional tiers of information in the Guild, so it gives more information than in Standard HoMM3. What are those 2 tiers of info? Also, in the standard game, one of the pieces of information that a Thieves' Guild c...

I have the Complete Edition of Heroes of Might and Magic III without HotA installed. I want to be able to play multiplayer with H3 Complete. Note, however, that I DO NOT want to play multiplayer with the changes that HotA implemented; I just want to play standard H3. Is there a way to play multiplay...

I think you just got really, really lucky. I am currently playing Unholy Alliance and have just finished Gelu's first scenario and am currently playing through Final Peace. The skills that I got as Gelu in Unholy Alliance were not the same as those for Gelu in Elixir of Life (I even loaded a save an...

Thanks for your reply. I've got two more questions. Can Faerie Dragons and any units that have Magic Mirror deflect AOE spells that affect them, but are not directly targeted at them? For example, if I were to cast Frost Ring, Inferno, or Fireball near a unit with Magic Mirror (But not directly over...

I've managed to beat Hack and Slash without having to restart. Turns out that the enemy hero would only try to teleport-rush me when I got within a certain distance of one of his towns, so, through trial and error, I found the right spot to stand in without provoking him. I then ended my turn and ru...

I've got some questions regarding game and unit mechanics. So I've read about a strategy on the H3 wiki called "Wraight bombing". Basically, a secondary hero with 7 stacks of wraiths rushes an enemy hero in order to drain said hero of his/her mana. 7 stacks drains it faster than 1 stack, r...

"In the second mission you could have captured all the castles and killed all the heroes except the death knight in the underworld. Then you would have unlimited time to learn every spell and visit every power-up." No, I couldn't have killed every hero except Marzeth. The enemy's main hero...

Alright, status update: I've beaten Mission 3 of Crag's campaign. However, I could only level up Crag Hack to level 18 because, despite the fact that I had expert logistics and advanced pathfinder for most of the mission, the enemy main hero could still outpace me and I had to rush to avoid getting ...

Soooo I've beaten Yog's, Gem's, and Gelu's campaign. The "Strike hard, strike fast" strategy worked wonders. "Nothing carries over between campaigns, everything carries over between scenarios within a single campaign. In "Unholy Alliance" you 'll get a 25 level Yog with tota...

Hmm, what about the Primary Skills like Attack, Defense, Spell power, and Knowledge? Are these randomized as well or do they carry over? Also, does the hero's spell book carry over or would I have to re-learn all of the spells in the next campaign?

I've decided to try to beat HoMM3: Shadow of Death on the maximum possible difficulty. I'm currently playing the Birth of a Barbarian campaign as Yog. I've beaten the first mission, but am having trouble with the second. My problem is that, by the time I amass a decent army, the enemy amasses an unb...

I posted my memes on a HoMM3 meme discord and now they are on Youtube. NICE!

I have seen lots of mods and custom maps for Heroes 3 on here that I would like to try out some day. However, these mods and maps are in English, while my version of HoMM3 is in Russian. Are maps/mods written in a language different from the base version compatible? If I tried to run, say, HotA with...
