The Heroes Round Table

Another question: What world is King's Bounty: The Legend set in? Is it in the old Might & Magic universe or in the new Might & Magic universe or in a separate universe altogether?

Well, at the end of the battle you get loot - so maybe they would be included in the loot, but I don't know.

I just got the demo - this game is awesome!



Does anybody know if he chests that appear during battle-scenes disappear if I don't pick them up during battles?

Back to the factions - yes, I do like uniqueness too. That's why I am willing to settle for 6 factions. I would not, however, accept say only 3 or 4 factions, no matter how unique they were.

4E is just stupid overall - not just in alignments!

I like how the factions are structured in HOMM V. The one thing I do wish for from HOMM III is that they would start with 8 initial factions rather than 6 as in HOMM IV, but I do understand that this is difficult given that each faction now has much more mechanically unique creatures and a greater d...

Ok, so maybe it was just confusion caused by tha phrasing of some of the above posters.

Interesting, but some of the players above speak of having 5 resurrected Titans left when this happened - well resurrected creatures are like normal creatures, so it shouldn't happen unless I am missing something.

Asheera, thanks for posting that article - I enjoyed reading it a great deal. The automatic translation is far from perfect, but understandable enough. :) I think I agree with the conclusion that the back and forth between a developer and a publisher can lead to a better game in the end. That said, ...

When does that happen?

I think Heroes 5 is an excellent game and Nival/Ubisoft did a good job on it and saved the franchise. As such, I would expect that Heroes 6 would be similarly well-done and if not, well then I would just stay with Heroes 5, just as I stayed with Heroes 3, when Heroes 4 was released and did not appea...

Well, at this point I am still rather satisfied with HOMM V and the expansions, so I don't really feel the need for HOMM VI yet. Still, if it were being made, I would certainly welcome it. I have never actually played the MM RPGs back in the day (apart from playing a little of MM VI, where I did enj...

I feel generally supportive of companies that make products that I like (unless I feel they betray my trust somehow or try to misuse this trust, but Ubisoft has not done that), so I am also rather happy to see Ubisoft doing well. HOMM V + Expansions are excellent games, so I am definitely glad that ...

So the only reason to buy the other expansion would be if you really wanted to play that campaign That answers that question perfectly. :D Thanks! The Tribes of the East (or ToE as it is affectionately known around here) is truly an excellent expansion, but before installing it, I would wait until ...

Necropolis are probably the best creepers with Dungeon a close second.

DRM stands for Digital Rights Management and DDRM for Draconian Digital Rights Management - a term that seeks to differentiate between normal/friendly DRM that relies on CD checks, CD keys and so on and between draconian DRM that has limited installs, necessitates online activations and so on. Starf...

Wow, I didn't know that Heroes V was supposed to have Starforce. Kudos to you all for fighting to remove it and succeeding! I was not following the development of HOMM V - I didn't even know it was being made. In any case, I hope you are right that Heroes VI does not have some draconian DRM (DDRM), ...

All this does make me wonder whether HOMM 6 also implements draconian DRM (DDRM), such as online activation and install limits. As much as I like the HOMM series, if it does do that, I will most definitely not buy it.

After playing HOMMV for countless hours your mind starts to wander in funny directions. This is a possible explanation why Havez is so imba. Because... THIS... IS... SPARTA!!!! http://geocities.yahoo.com.br/tiagoinka/havez.JPG (Possibly why he comes up with 300 gremlins too...) Bring yours too! The...

Great pictures Metathron! "Make yourself into a H5 (or general HOMM) hero of your choice" contest is a great idea - sounds like great fun! Heck, it would be cool at some stage in the future to have a contest to just make yourself look appropriate to some kind of faction as a general hero!
