voted h2.

h2 - nostalgic/misty/basalty, really good.
h3 - cluttered, next to castle worst-looking h3 town.
h4 - all h4 towns have no infrastructure at all, minotaur maze looks so strange clothy(although nobody ever seems to build em anyway).
h5 - nice one, but im a big fan of that foggy-swampy stuff like h2.

maybe ubi should make a swamp town into h5 with h2 warlock town theme.

Also voted H2 - for swamp, waterfall, statue and dragon tower. And I never like this underground theme (how dragons can fly there?).

Here is link to H1 mountain castle:

Here you go: http://www.heroesofmightandmagic.com/he ... arlock.gif


And that's pretty sneaky of you putting the almost naked statues up front for H5.

But H2 still wins for me, with H4 second (it actualy works for chaos to have the buildinds spread out like that).

H3, with all the underground-type buildings and dwellings. H2 is a very close second, but I like the underground feel more...

Vote Heroes 5 - somehow it gives me more of that 'oomph' feel, being grand and beautiful.

First time H2 without doubts. Maze, swamp and dragon tower looks awesome.

Voted for HII,although HI is my second choice because it has life in it.HV is my last option because it turned hydras into freaking bats.

I think you cannot compare HIII and HV with the rest. These are subterrainean town types in contrast to the others.

I think, I won't vote here.

But I have to say that overall, HII is clearly the worst.

This is the easiest town choice for me. H2 looks wonderful and has the best music as usual.

H3 comes in a respectable second because it gives an accurate atmosphere for an underground dungeon filled with scary, mythical creatures.

Is the entire H5 dungeon really just three or four statues surrounded by purple crystal? If not, could someone please put up a picture that actually shows the whole town? If yes however, then that is the saddest excuse for a town I have ever seen.

I feel sorry that the once fierce and menacing dungeon creatures have now become synonymous with exotic, stripper elves. How could they possibly have enslaved the mighty and proud minotaurs, or risen above the ferocious chaos hydras? (Which by the way, were much better suited in Fortress, but alas, there's no Fortrees town.) Poor dungeon. :(

Because it's 3D and spread around a huge cavern putting up a pic of the whole H5 dungeon is rather imposible. Sorry.

Then we can`t compare anything. All Sylvan(H5) town is tree! Just look at the H5 academy! it`s floating, every other academy town was on the ground!

No its not.To see most of the heaven you have to use birds perspective,because of the central building.Here,you just use frogs perspective.

To Berntie:
Thanks for the screen. I would like that people stoped giving me links to AoH site. You can't see those screens unless you have visited the site.

Then may somebody make such a screen and post it on the net because there is no Dungeon screen from the frog perspective.

H3 for me (and looks like im the only one) .... just the whole underground feel worked incredible well for dungeon

H2 is second, but H1 is awful, too mismatched
Human madness is the howl of a child with a shattered heart.
