The Heroes Round Table

Congratulations! Let's hope the expansion not only fixes the bugs, but also improves the gameplay designs.

Hm, what is the post-patch reward of the "We come in peace" quest? If it is not very important, you may as well just take the towns so you can survive the mission. Or how about the way that always works - wait until you get a big army and then crush it? The CPU's army usually grows slower ...

Hehe I am actually playing Shogun Total War 2 recently. Highly recommended. H6 unfortunately lost the "heroic" difficulty comparable to Shogun 2's new Legendary mode. But H6 still has lots of strategy game potentials when the patches iron out the obvious shortcuts to victory. Graphics/soun...

The player gets different carry-over side kick heroes for choosing different paths. Since I also pick up the trait "free first generic hero", I don't think leveling up the secondary heroes make a difference. You can always pick up Mentor to level them up. (Then drop Mentor at Level II Tear...

Sorry, nope. I read that people could access such information, so there must be a way. Maybe this particular hero picked up the boots from his/her territory?

You could accumulate Tear points well past the required 250/1000 for the next level, but choose not to level up. The leveling is not automatic.

Time Stasis is under Prime school, with an hourglass icon.

Thanks for everyone's support and suggestions. I am going to review all walkthroughs once and update them to v1.2. Probably can't wait long enough for v1.3 though.

Thanks for your information. A very easy way to level up your secondary hero is to give your main hero the Mentor ability BEFORE he/she reaches level II of Tear/Blood reputation. This way, you can both level up your secondary hero for free, and also remove the ability point spent on Mentor by the ti...

That's weird - are you sure it is not town G and H? Is it patch 1.2?

This brings back memories. I read about a strategy to get this book extremely early by a series of exploit on the game's design, such as by pasuing/unpausing the game to avoid the enemies ever acting in battle, and the door closing.... and I tried it myself. Very exciting and did get the book early!

After playing through the campaign, I think some of the orders are not quite clear. For example, Necropolis 4 and Inferno 2 are closely related. But on this list they are very far apart. In fact, in my (limited) memory these are the only clues in the game (besides the obviously chronological order w...

There is a "25 year anniversary" achievement that you get by playing 25 years of in-game days. That's... a lot of days.

Before patch 1.2, the counter only works when NO enemy faction is present. Now all days count. However, by finishing all campaigns once, you only get about 4 years...).

Whenever I see the scroll bar moves, I exit the save game window and try again. This usually stops the moving.

I see. In my game I cleaned up the Necro units before talking to Hiroshi. That's probably why. I'll update the walkthrough.

Happy holidays to everyone! I wish all your payrolls grow like the neutral stacks!

Did you "go south a bit" after passing through the portal (4-4')?

Just read this off the official forum (maybe you already read it):

Try the respecialization immediately after your hero gains a new reputation rank (e.g. Tear I, Blood II).

The game's sale will be miserable for competing with Skyrim, though. Going for the early release, to get the sale, and then have monthly patch to address bugs and so on. The result might be the same two months later (70% of bugs being fixed).

Don't want to sneak in the ability testimony thread - so here comes a new one. Please feel free to provide your own experiences with Dynasty Weapons and why you recommend them to others. May I start with a couple: Arache (Might) Obtained from Necropolis Mission 1. Its low level abilities are great, ...
