Maybe he has some other virtual rom,but securom treats them all as securom.Or maybe it just missinterpreted another(physical)cd/dvd rom. I had alcohol 120% installed on my computer. I haven't used it for many many months. I erased it and the game ran finally. Still though it was very irritating sin...

My copy of homm5 is now a fake since patch 1.3

This game just gets worse and worse the more I play it. Now I can't play the game that I actually bought legitimately?

ARGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!! Securom says I have daemon tool image mounted. I honestly don't see where it gets this. Any suggestions on what to do?

1. To learn high level spells you need to have basic, advanced, and expert magic of the appropriate type(dark for puppet master and light for ressurection). Basic = Level 3 spell, Advanced = Level 4 spell, Expert = Level 5 Spell. Level 1-2 spells everybody can learn. 2. Not at the moment until the n...

It's just a shame that they are rather boring to use and not balanced compared to the other units in the army. Actually I like that. Unlike the other HoMM parts here you don't totally rely on your top tier unit. And another good thing is the fact that you don't have to upgrate (most of) your units ...

I'd have to disagree a bit with dungeon having such a hard time with dungeon against neutrals. Though it is very true that you have to be extremely careful with your troops. However, between Blood Furies, Deep Hydras and at least 1 destructo-spell, there's almost nothing that you can't kill. And I ...

Other spells are so very much more powerful than SP. SP should remain as is, as should PF. Nerfing those 2 means there are no more summon spells that a summoner can use to win battles. Will the summoner then use Fist (single stack weak spell), Fire Trap(too random to be useful), Wasp Swarm(too weak...

Heroes V Add-On Q & A

@Ethric Well according to nival's logic it would probably make sense to simply provide no more support other than bug fixing. I mean then you won't have all the bonus 'features' and then you'll have to get the expansion! Such as simultaneous turns and a playable multiplayer... As for the dwarves in ...

I think all other factions except Dungeon should not use Destructive Magic. Dungeon is the only faction that can achieve reasonable damage with empowered spells or with warlock's luck with destructive magic. However, I still think that destructive magic is still weak. In fact the weakest spell scho...

As for Wasp Swarm, even expert version deals 30-40% less damage then untrained Ice Bolt. And delay effect is just for one turn, comapred to, for example, slow spell. Same for Fist of Wraith, also -20% weaker at expert then untrained destruction spells. Fire Trap is pointless (and mana expensive), d...

Honestly I would of prefered to see cavaliers/paladins have their dmg downgraded to 15-25 from 20-30 rather than a jousting nerf to make them a little more specialized tier 6. As for Klaus he needs a hardcore nerf. Making him provide a 2% bonus with .5% per tile bonus every level thereafter would pr...

Honestly it's a pretty close tie between titans, emerald dragons, black dragons, and arch-angels. The tier 7 besides the spectral dragons and arch-devils are pretty balanced in relation to each other. It's just a shame that they are rather boring to use and not balanced compared to the other units i...

Conjure Pheonix is simply ridiculous

My god this is possibly the most overpowered spell I've ever seen. If you have a high level hero the pheonix can kill 20 titans as if they are nothing. It's way too strong. Does nival ever even play this game before they release it? It took me 1 battle with the pheonix to realize it's outrageous. Th...

Personally I think dungeon would make an excellent might faction. Their units are extra buff and with expert luck, offense, and defense they could easily dominate. I honestly don't see why they don't make a good might faction. Compare their units to the other races units. Assassins are pretty awesom...
