The Heroes Round Table

Argh!!! Another "dark" game. As if we really needed another one - especially since virtually every fantasy game out there is "dark". So far I haven't seen, heard or read a single thing that remotely tempts me to buy Heroes V. I have and play Heroes I - IV with all of the expansions. They are each, i...

Wow! This must have been the result of a four way. A Centaur (obviously), an Elf (check out the ears), a Devil (check out the eyes), and a little bit of Popeye (check out the right forearm). Pretty kinky if you ask me.

Not only is the unicorn not pretty, it is the ugliest unicorn I've ever seen. Frankly, it just looks like typical 3D - that is collision, collision, collision.

Good story and narrative. We chose Order for the lead character, "Adventu...

In response to Marelt Ekiran: It's true you need a hero to flag a mine in IV, but once flagged the mineral, etc. it automatically accumulated.
In III, you had to have a hero "retrieve" the commodity every week.

ARGH!!! Remember, the game is called HEROES(!) of Might and Magic, not Armies of Might and Magic. Heroes IV is way better than Heroes III. So much of the tedium - crap, I have to send heros to all the mines to get the resources because it's a new week, waiting until day 1 to get new troops, etc. - w...
