Re: Heroes 4 Ultimate v5 by Nimostar - Review and ongoing play journal by CJLee

Other big chances that I have noticed (not exhaustive; I'm focusing on a few big changes that could really upset the way some people play): Nature faction's Archers have been changed to Rangers. Instead of archery, they get pathfinding and scouting. This could really mess things up. In the past Arch...

Heroes 4 Ultimate v5 by Nimostar - Review and ongoing play journal by CJLee

Since I found that the Conquest of the Underworld campaign would take fairly long (8 maps, of which the 5th is XL sized), I thought I'd try my hand at checking out the Heroes 4 Ultimate mod by NimoStar. I'd like to at least complete one campaign using this mod, and post a review or share my experien...

Re: Heroes 4 The Restoration of Axeoth

Response: 1) Definitely do away with the pikemen joining you in map1. H4 Pikemen are the equivalent of H3 Griffins or Ghosts or Stone Golems. Or decrease the joining number a lot. 2) I think there's no need to stick too closely to the storyline. You could have a third hero who gets killed at the end...

Re: Heroes 4 The Restoration of Axeoth

Corrections: I've done nwcprometheus, and now I realize where the Dragon wielding enemy hero is coming from. There is an asylum town in an inaccessible location underground, Ennismoor. I guess these guys are intended to be harassers to spice up the fights? Also - I'm playing on Advanced, not Interme...

Re: Heroes 4 The Restoration of Axeoth

Some thoughts about that: It is ok for me to be giving feedback on multiple points of weaknesses that lead to an overly-easy map. But actually when you address the weaknesses, if you're going to address everything, have to do so in moderate fashion. Making one aspect harder will have a knock on effe...

Re: Heroes 4 The Restoration of Axeoth

OK, I'm on map 5, Old Wounds still. After several easy scenarios on small maps, now I'm confronted with a huge map. The difficulty level has gone up a lot. But hang on. It's not a challenging map in terms of battles fought. There are few really strong stacks, and these tend to be defending important...

Re: Heroes 4 The Restoration of Axeoth

And to answer your questions above... Played on Intermediate, since I also wanted to go through the missions rather than to have agonizingly tough battles every minute. One suggestion: instead of making gamers wait and drag out their missions in order to read all the events/ scripted stories, you co...

Re: Heroes 4 The Restoration of Axeoth

Map 4 issues: Map is tiny and can be finished in under a week. Since I decided to explore everything and milk all experience from the map, I delayed it and sent my heroes on a map tour at the end when I managed to get 1 hero to level 19 (with advanced death magic), so I wanted to visit all mage guil...

Re: Heroes 4 The Restoration of Axeoth

Hey iLive inAbox05, your hard work is appreciated! I played the first map of Warlords of the Wasteland, and didn't go very far. but then again, I'm not good at barbarian heroes and first maps are usually pretty hard when you're leveling your heroes and just about anybody is capable of killing these ...

Re: Heroes 4 The Restoration of Axeoth

Map 3 and 4 feedback for Heroes Chronicles Conquest of the Underworld: Quest tower at 48, 105 says have to 'achieve level 13'. But the wording is wrong. At level 13, I still couldn't get past the tower. (Which is a pity because my heroes were level 13 by the time they came to the tower. The design o...

Re: Heroes 4 The Restoration of Axeoth

Not supposed to be able to hire angels in Map 2? No wonder. I was playing Map 3, and at the start they had a message saying the angels had decided to join Tarnum. I was wondering why the need for such a message. That said, Map 1 and Map 2 both could build Angels, at least on the old version of this ...

Re: Heroes IV Ultimate edition v5 with Succubi, etc.

Hi iliveinabox05 I have been playing the first two maps featuring Tarnum as a knight (underworld conquest). I played using Winds of War after you told me the scenarios are not designed for Map 1 was not difficult. I am only an average player, so I should think that good players would find it boringl...

Re: Heroes IV Ultimate edition v5 with Succubi, etc.

Thanks for replying iliveinabox05! I should tweak my comments. Although I have not finished the first maps on the Tarnum knight (underworld conquest) nor Tarnum wizard campaigns, it's not necessarily because they are hard. In fact, most neutral battles are easy. However, a few battles proved to be p...

Re: Heroes IV Ultimate edition v5 with Succubi, etc.

I've tried playing one of the Masters campaigns starring Tarnum. Couldn't get past halfway the first mission. Almost every map that I play with a wizard, I've really wanted to play a pure spellcaster. Not possible. No combat skills gets you killed everytime, and you can't afford to lose Tarnum. It's...

Re: Heroes IV Ultimate edition v5 with Succubi, etc.

I played it a little, and like what I see so far. The animations and graphics are quite well done and it looks stable. I am not completely sure if all the changes are for the better. For instance, I don't see why initiative needs to be renamed Drive. Then there is the question of Gold Golems - now c...

Re: Heroes 4 The Restoration of Axeoth

Awesome

The power of fandom and fan-aticism...

It's thanks to the super enthusiastic guys that we have people who do so much hard work to adapt these campaigns to other versions of Heroes.

And with good cause too. Older versions of heroes, especially H3, have vastly superior AI to H6 and H7.

Hero's Hour gameplay video

The adventure map looks like a downsized, reduced version of H1 with its 1980s graphics.

The battle screens don't look like turn based strategy to me. More like arcade games.

Some may like it. I'm not sure what to think.
