I use a handfull of mods

* no combat mod, so the main menu has a black background (prevents massive lag)

* sharper textures mod, way better grapics for units

* necrobutton mod, it shows wich units get raised into what necro unit

* treant mod, beta treants rule

anways if your interested in mods I recommend the modding wiki

You heard it wrong. game is more more balanced than any other official heroes game in the series. (it still has several flaws tho)

As for mod recommendations, one is way ahead of any others, and that is LotA MOD, hosted on celestial heavens.

Last time I checked, LotA was a campaign.
I am back and ready to... ready to... post things.

Is there anyone out there who doesn't know what LotA stands for, or am I the only clueless person?

I thought it's "Lord of the Armpits" or something. :)

Are these mods easy to undo, in case there is an undesirable side effect? I had a very bad experience with a map that affected all my other maps. It took 3 uninstalls/reinstalls of the game to fix it. I still don't know how the 3rd reinstall did the trick, while the first two couldn't. I almost threw away the game in disgust. It's not an experience I care to repeat.

Mods do not change original game files, you just put them in the UserMods folder and voila! If you don't like one, quit the game and delete the mod file(s) and restart the game! I don't know what you mean by "affected all my maps"???

That's what they said about maps too. Put the map in the Maps folder, and when you no longer want it, just delete it. Well, some maps will permanently "infect" other maps, and in my experience, deleting the offending map didn't correct the problem, as inexplicable, and infuriating, as that may sound.

And didn't someone point out that Legend of the Ancients is a campaign (map)?

Quoting myself - It IS a campaign, but it uses the MOD-s in a way many custom maps do.

Anyway, here is an interesting thread that lists many H5 mods:

That link contains many mods, and some are pretty cool ones.

They include:
