The Heroes Round Table

If you don’t recognize me, you’re new. If you DO recognize me, you’re probably thinking: “Oh man! THAT guy again....” No, we are thinking "Yay, another one who made my life more fun years ago!". (I know the OP is also over a year old, but since the boards are so flooded with new posts now...

Here we have almost normal life. Mass gatherings and travels are somewhat restricted, but most people have returned to pre-pandemic lifestyle. There are a few new cases daily, but mostly these are imported ones and can be isolated. It is clear that at some point there will be a second and probably t...

So, I finally beat the game with KMRT. I cracked and played light rather than dark path, mainly because I'd just finished the dark path with a more normal party and didn't want to do it all over again. This said, it probably is one of the most challenging combos to play as (that doesn't involve dou...

Slow is IMO an excellent spell against melee instakillers - ancient wyverns, minotaur kings and also the first spell to cast against Tolberti/Robert. In general I am an archer fan, and an archer with slow spell is something else than an archer without it.

I've recently started new game with solo druid and that's something. He's mediocre at everything, and first promotion quest need to finish priest promotion first, that's a mess! Yes, and go with the dark side and do the second promotion... If you pick your fights and use right spells (turn undead, ...

I've seen a clip, and it can be done, the mouse cursor can move independently from the camera.

Caps-lock does not work for you?

Theories are nice, but no theory is good without experimental evidence. So, elf kinght - elf monk - dwarf thief - human ranger it was. Played in mmmerge, which changes some stuff, but tried to keep true to original MM7 as much as possible. The emerald isle was pretty much like always for me - bows, ...

- NPC Portraits All games recycle persons/models behind portraits, but most obvious it is in MM8 in my opinion. Initially I did not like the MM6 style (although that was kind of common in games in certain times), but I have grown to like it. Perhaps the reason is that I have replaced several of the ...

MKTR may be the one which requires the most brainwork from player and luck in game indeed. Archer would add ranged firepower which is always good and has access to most elemental spells. With knight the party is strongly melee, but without support units/spells it will have troubles in many areas. Ho...

In truth it is not post count. It is the number of tiny robots that the goverment has injected into our bloodstream to control our mind.
No, I do not have schizophrenia. I am telling you as things really are and if you do not believe me, go visit your doctor...

Not much help, but about 2 weeks ago downloaded merge files from Mega, had an old gog MM8 installer and a computer that had never seen a MM game before. Everything seems to be working fine for me. Is there anything else broken in the game than quest triggers? Intro videos etc running, game plays nor...

http://heroes2.forumactif.com/t102-hero ... ated-lands ( Download Link from this website is Dead ) The link may be dead, but not because the target file does not exist (my browser says link disabled due to copyright issues). You probably will figure it out by yourself how to get it if really want. ...

The problem with ballista is that it is a single unit and once craeture stacks grow, the single unit loses its relative strength. Therefore, as Pol said, it can be a major force only in small maps / rush strategy or maps specifically designed for it. Hence from the heroes mentioned in opening post O...

Against neutrals and AI Inferno is a very efficent town. Devils, especially with force field and high mana can take on pretty much everything. If armageddon is available, a second main hero does efretogeddon and map clearing goes really fast and no lower level units are needed. Demon farming is IMO ...

The amount of data available in thieves guild depends on number of taverns controlled. I guess that 2 tiers count as two ordinary taverns? I do not have Hota running at the moment. Personality says whether the player is human or AI and the latter can have explorer, builder and fighter personalities ...

A general rule is that the higher the difficulty, the faster one needs to strike. Armies are collected as you press forward. In specific maps, like in campaigns a different strategy may be needed though. Unfortunately I do not remember the SoD campaigns that well. However, many people have completed...

Wow! That must have taken a lot of effort! Downloading now... (although may not be able to try immediately)

Not very active, but still functioning... We probably need a HodgePodge to initiate some interesting discussions. How have you been?

The score is certainly impressive. Whether it is some kind of world record or not remains unknown since many people have achieved great scores, but most of these playthroughs were over 20 years back. Who play MM6 today, probably play some kind of modified version. Also, AFAIK most people do not cons...

Abusing turn base and real time in battle is kind of heartless and reloading for loot is quite obviously a cheat strategy. If you want good gear safe and fair, better go to circus. If you want a challenge in the game then a classic test was solo peasant (lvl 0) knight. Dunno if the lvl 0 character s...
