The Heroes Round Table

Mien is Terrance Smith from MM6 (Dagger expert).

He teaches you how to wield dual daggers and lives in the back of a tavern. How cool is that?

Top that.

Uninstall Vista Install Windows 98 SE Problem solved. Sometimes it helps to have to have an older computer just for classic games. We have had a special computer for the great old RPGs and would never part with our older Windows versions. That's what I've always been doing. Keep all my old computer...

The next time I'm trying a dark party I'm going CDSS (or CSSS) for the pure monstrous magic damage

Problem solved.

>>> It reminds me of my own experiences with Chess, when an opponent that refuses to resign wastes a lot of my time. I have to interject you there: POSSIBLE STALEMATE. I can't tell you how many chess games I've tied by sticking to the bitter end and making my opponent not be able to checkmate me by ...

It's even a little worse than stated, because the laboratory costs only 5 of each. So if you start on normal, with 5 of each precious resource, you need the 10 sulfur.

Yeah, also correct, and it's coming back to me now.

Bone Dragon rush WAS a serious problem on many small maps back in 1997.

Speaking about Necro, there's one more imbalance that nobody mentioned so far, and it IS a problem on small maps in multiplayer ( i lsot to it quite a few times) played on normal difficulty level: the dreaded bone dragon rush. The Bone Dragon structure is quite easy to make if you start the game wit...

Attack & Defense percentages reduced to 5% and 2%

No, it's 2.5% for defense, not 2%.

Heroes 3 uses 2.5 %, the documentation is wrong.

Yeah he's the dwarf king. A neutral choice would RULE. They could have involved him in some way, and made "neutral final classes" that could use both light and dark magic, but having BOTH wizards & necros as enemies, and a tougher game overall. There would be neutral promotion quests. ...

That means you never played Archibald's campaign in Heroes 2 ??

Speaking of the minotaur maze, the most fun spells you can use there are Rock Blast, Toxic Cloud and Fire Spike - try them! Fire Spike can be used to ambush minotaurs very effectively. And It's EXTREMELY fun to have Toxic Cloud and Rock Blast "ricochet" against walls and hit someone you do...

Light -- better buffs for a Might addict. :) Though the Dark side is significantly easier as far promotion quests go. I mean, 5 Arena Victories at that level vs. raiding the Elf Castle? :jester: What about Warlock vs Arch Druid? Arch Druid needs you to go to 2 easy (and probably already cleaned out...

Well it was the one you sent me first. (Don't trust the numbers - I rename all files before uploading them)

Here's Avonu's "Chuck Norris" solo monk file

Avonu sent me this weird MM7 game with tons of artifacts on his characters.

Ahh, black potions, that explains it. In my last few games I had a druid and created them myself so I had +50 to all stats, no exception.

And I believe Goblins can only go up to 15 intellect/personality at the start, so you obtained (27-15 = 12/2) = 6 barrels of personality.

Which side do you prefer to choose, and for what reason?

Here's the solo paladin savegame you sent me (renumbered to 17)

Question, how come his personality is so low?

Apeman sent me this mm7 solo paladin save game.

Where you are now!

People, if you're still using Windows 98 (the optimal platform for H2 - H3), like I do, you DON'T need any other third party program - direct TCP IP will work.
