The Heroes Round Table

Q9: Medusas will also do the trick if the enemy hero has little to no magic resistance.

By the way, some of the questions in this quiz were inspired by this ancient thread started on HC by Wub. It will matter in 1 or 2 questions in this quiz.

Okay, one of the solutions about which I'm not sure if it works is... half of the quest army. The other half is standing in front of the town. There are 2 armies of 25 Nightmares and 75 Minotaurs on the way to the town, so in total there are 50 Nightmares and 150 Minotaurs on the way to the town. I'...

It looks like TotE C1M3: The Bull's Wake. Maltz mentions some Zombies and their masters, Vampire Princes in his walkthrough of that mission. I remembered there was a situation like that in the Necro campaign of TotE, but hadn't remembered which mission it was before I checked it in the walkthrough.

I didn't count the charmed stack as 'created'. However, the charmed stack can create a stack for you on its action (if it hasn't acted this turn yet). Mana leech is the only answer Yes. The rest was just saying how (with higher level heroes) could the trick be enhanced to maybe even regenerate mana....

The hero is a Fireguard, so he is immune to fire. As such, he is not a valid secondary target for the Dragons' firebreath. There's not enough space for the Dragons to land next to the hero and attack him directly (there is a stone above the hero). After several tries I've found a battlefield without...

Why do you think it isn't a good thing? It's only bad for the power of the spell. An Archmage will only kill 10% ( not 20% ) more creatures than a Necromancer of equal level if both have GM Demonology and neither has any Artifacts. In general, I guess it makes sense if passive bonuses are additive(...

I believe it might've been quite boring to watch a video with this fight. It took me almost 3 hours (some of this time was surely due to very frequent saving). I might do some vids if I happen to get bored on holidays:P Q5 was inspired by a question posted several years ago at HC(my answer to that q...

Some of the stacks were reduced. It's 111k and 164k, but those writings are too long to be displayed correctly. http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/6864/dragonsbattlescreen12.png The last stack left. http://img857.imageshack.us/img857/9312/dragonsbattlescreen13.png And done. 1000000 is again too long...

Hold 'd' to defend. Here's a fully buffed stack of Ice Demons: http://img546.imageshack.us/img546/2743/dragonsbattlescreen10.png The hero distracts the Dragons with an illusion once in a while to avoid too many hits without retaliation on Ice Demons. There are just 10k Ice Demons left, but they will...

Now, spellcasters move towards the Dragons to buy the Devils time to summon some more Ice Demons and let the Tactician and Ice demons jump to the corner. http://img857.imageshack.us/img857/1972/dragonsbattlescreen08.png Devils without mana are not very usefull, so give them to the Blacks too.:D http...

Finally, the casters are out of mana. The Tactician still has some left, because he was just making illusions for 1 mana instead of Summoning Phoenixes for 3 mana or Devils for 9. Each stack of Dragons was hit 2-3 times with firebreath, so they're now reduced a bit. http://img715.imageshack.us/img71...

You probably noticed that one of the heroes has one action to spare every 2 turns. First, use that action to make more summons, so that when a new turn starts, there are already some stacks on the other side of the battlefield. http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/3360/dragonsbattlescreen05.png Then, st...

Every 2 turns one hero Summons Devils. Cast Mana Flare and then the Devils can Summon Ice Demons every turn. Other heroes summon stacks for distraction. http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/6558/dragonsbattlescreen03.png The stack of Ice Demons grows quite fast. http://img694.imageshack.us/img694/3249...

Other heroes summon Phoenixes and other stacks for distraction. They can move that far because of GM Tactics.

Below is my answer to the question number 5 of some heroes 4 quiz . One of my heroes used a combination of skills and Artifacts like below. Chaos and Combat are for Fireguard Advanced class, so he can hide behind a large stack, giving it Tactics bonuses without being fried by the Dragons' firebreath...

I don't think the Sorcery skill improves Hand of Death however. Confirmed. Asylum Grail doesn't help either. Also, the bonuses seem to be: Archmage class 20% Cloak of Darkness(from WoW) 25% Staff of Death 50% Necro Grail 50% All of them are additive with eachother and with 100% Demonology bonus, wh...

I mean, if only one hero has plenty of spellpoints, then the other one has little spellpoints, not nessecerily no spellpoints. However, by 'mage' I mean a hero with Mage class. Sorry if it wasn't clear from start.

@cjlee: Good suggestion, I hope I'll upgrade my walkthrough(yes, there is one ready) this weekend. (btw. you keep misspelling my name) You have 1 town, but you can't build anything there(there is not even a fort) and the only tile from which it can be entered is blocked by the Dragons. Halberd is a ...

Yep, I discovered that already. The hard way. :D I don't think you can make them not split into 4 stacks. The only way I see is to add 3 more stacks of different melee creatures. Oh, well, I guess 1 Pirate, 1 Bandit and 1 Troglodyte won't make that much of a difference. Do you think it's possible t...

No, you can't hit-n-run, just like in the map. Growth: from what I observed, neutral armies on Champion: - grow every day - grow at approximately maximum[10%/week; growth rate(1/week for Blacks, 36/week for Peasants)] This means that 1 million Black Dragons will only grow by 1 every 7 days(long term...
