This is on a map that was developed really carefuly and we use it most of the times for vs matches. Fortress gets the Azure dragon if the other town is Castle but that's it. Everyone has to play with population only from their castle. And getting several level 7 creatures would be pretty bad, first ...

Gnolls are pretty useless, I replace them with anything that is as fast or faster then the Archangel. We agree on that before the match starts. Usually it's one Azure Dragon guarded by 40 Black Dragons.

No. You have to develop an antistrategy for each town. I always asume the other guy has got either mass haste, mass slow or mass prayer.

I've played with Castle players who know what they are doing, me being usually Dungeon or Fortress, and sometimes I would win and sometimes I would lose, however there was no rush tactic of which you are saying. None of the matches were quickly decided.

As I've said before Armageddons wasn't never used for MP, and if it's SP you're talking about, well, exploiting that isn't hard in any game.

If that were the case then Heroes 3 wouldn't have been such an instant classic. Haste, Slow, Disabling, Berserking, Flying, Range, Speed, Hero specials, Stats, all comes into account. It's not like we're fighting with 7x1hp units that rush out in the field and insta-kill the other ones.

But what if you use sylvan against dungeon?Since most of sylvan units are faster then their dungeon couterparts,youll be able to win without your opponent getting a shot.Your right,that helps a lot! Sylvan against Dungeon does spell disaster for my poor babies, but, that's only the state of things ...

So if Im given a chance to actually use my units even if your units are way faster,its called turtleing?Interesting. It is intresting, because I'd really like to see the bright person who would develop a game bringing all fast vs all slow units in the field then balancing the it around those condit...

It is, it makes you lose your entire turn. I really hope they put wait + defend back.

@LordHoborgXVII Youre kidding,right?Simretal gives you free for all and emphasizes sheer brute force?Wait,youve lost me there.I could say the same for turn ratl in this maner:Well,if you manage to get enough force to oblitherate your enemys stack with one attack,than you can just go from battle to ...

Gaidal, the problem you are saying is affected by mass haste/mass slow being too strong in Heroes 3 (which I agree on), and has less to do with sim retilations. If mass haste/slow were not as much powerful I am almost sure no one would have came up with introducing sim turns.

Well, I for one dislike sim.retilation, because I want, like in chess, to have an upper hand in attacking. If I position myself so that the enemy will fall to my attack first he deserves to be beaten, and the other way around, if I expose my troops, then go ahead and take advantage of my mistakes. E...

Actually, of all towns the sylvan is the CHEAPEST. The most expensive ones are Academy and Dungeon.

Academy has a very strong special to boost its low levels,but its high levels loose because of this. High levels lose because of it? So an initiative, speed, luck, defense, offense ect is useless on titans? Sure no one in the right mind would add hp or damage upgrade on titans, but there is plenty ...

Dungeon Dwellings

I wonder how all those creatures (except dragons wich can fly) can get down to the ground.



Why, didn't you know - there's an elevator in the central part of the cavern :D

Some things can be blamed on it launching early (like bugged grid) but some don't have an excuse - the whole game looked like it was taking place in a plastic world with rubber dragons. The fact remains, the mix of some bad ideas and early release, H4 spelled disaster.
