The Heroes Round Table

Supposed to be an alpha of the map :P Not really done. We were going to test it in MP (already tested a tad in SP) but then we realized that you can't play user-made maps in Multi-Player yet cuz of another oversight on Ubi/BH's behalf (LOL). So it's there, but you can't play it in MP until they fix ...

The attacks are mostly triggered by where your hero is when the patrols go by. If you stand a hero somewhat near the shore north of the windmill when the patrol is going by then orange will land and attack you. even if it's pretty early, it seems. this doesnt seem to happen if you dont come near the...

nice. seems to me by looking at the graph that h5 doesn't significantly diverge until ~Level 30 though.

it's not hard, just mouse-over the upwards arrow (the upgrade button), it will tell you the cost of the upgrade, no matter where you're upgrading. H5 has a lot more info than you'd think at first glance; some can be found by right-clicking on stuff, some by mousing-over. it could be more obvious tho...

i think it's really hard to say.. which is a tribute to the quality of the game

vamp lords dont seem overpowered to me at all

- $0.02

i think it just needs to be beefed up in power a bit in an upcoming patch.

enlightenment is one of those catch-22 things. yeah, you level up a good bit faster with enlightenment, but choosing enlightenment takes away some of those level-ups that could have been used for something else.. lol edit - but if they increased the % increase in exp a whole bunch so that it's hugel...

that's what i was thinking.. that maybe i visited them in the wrong order. but then i couldnt figure out what the right order was.. lol

Has anyone played this scenario? I killed everything but have no idea where the tear(s) of asha is. There are no obelisks on this map.. rather you're supposed to follow the signs or something.. but most of the signs aren't helpful at all. Maybe I'm missing something obvious. Anyone that can help?

When playing Necropolis, when you are on the battlefield and loose units, cast Raise Dead spell. Unlike in *all* other factions, undead will be actually resurrected(not until the end of the combat). This little element combined with eternal servitude and skeleton raising abilities, will make your a...

Ele Chains aren't nearly as strong as they were, and Sinitar is a joke of a hero. After level 15 he stops gaining any benefits (mana cost of empowered reaches mana cost of normal spell), he's good for small maps but not anything else. joke of a hero??? i have yet to play MP but i bet he will be one...

Just curious, with only six slots for skills (one or two of which is almost always already taken) which skills do you want, vs which skills you don't want? I'm curious to know, are there any skills you flat-out HATE? Ones you wish you never get offered? Are there skills that are MUST HAVE'S no matt...

i love how the liches draw out their little sword when they get melee-attacked. i like the treants.. i don't see the problem with them. plus their stats are so hoss.. what's not to love about a huge 175 hp lumbering tree? djinns.. i hafto admit i laughed when i first saw their hands.. but theyre not...

the problem with the people's logic who say H5 is a H3 clone is that they think in this manner: " OH, 7 creatures in each town, and every creature has an upgrade.. that means h5 is a h3 clone!!! " Oh yeah, but the stats and abilities of the vast majority of the creatures are TOTALLY differ...

agreed.. in the scenario in the inferno campaign where you start going through the elven lands i had a big fight with a sylvan hero that i SHOULD have won, however at one point in the battle his master hunters targeted my strongest stack and got luck on both shots. that resulted in Agrael dying and ...

Actually no.I believe graphics arent a big deal,hence my question why did they spend thousands of dollars on it?And if they did,why isnt it gorgeus then?

umm.. are we looking at the same game here? heroes 5 looks gorgeous

I wouldn't jump the gun so quickly. First week observations are often looked back on and laughed at. Doubtless i've produced a few laughers myself. Not necessarily saying that "haunting needs patching" is a laugher, but on this one it isn't clear enough to immediately say "patch it.&q...

true, it may have been.. i can't even remember anymore. i just remember using it on occasion.

that's the great thing about it.. if you choose to go for the "ultimate skill" then it's a high risk/reward thing.. you risk the possibility of getting stuck with some crappy skill combination in order to get the ultimate skill.. or you can choose a surefire good skill combination and NOT ...
