Heroes of Might and Magic V

[RATTY...]

I'm talking about the upgraded versions of the monsters.

The upgraded archer got two shots. What can a little Gargoyle do? It's dead even before it can get to the shooters on the other side, and its weak in melee, cannon fodder.

Griffin got unlimited retaliations, that's amazing to have in end games when you have loads of them. Golem goes nowhere, they either stand there and defend shooters, or they just die.

Monks got 30 life, Genies got 40? Monks shoots, they don't need to fly around like Genies, so the HP doesn't hurt that much. Genie can't get across the screen on one move, so they either get shot down, or has to wait for a flier to come to them.

Naga got no retaliation upgraded, that's a free hit in. Then you get a cannon fodder to hit the same weakened creature to get the retaliation away, then attack with a strong melee so you don't waste creatures. Dread Knights are good when double damage gets in, but they die faster.

Archangel against Titan is about preferences, I still like the angel better.

In a battle with Castle and Tower, Tower gets easily raped.

Dungeon? 2 shooters with great weekly growth, the team can easily shut down a Tower team. Shooters take down the weak ass shooters from Tower, Black Dragon on Titan, and the rest is just cannon fodder and is easily killed. Only the Manticore is a bit weak, but the rest of Tower is weak except for Titan and Naga.

Pikeman Vs Gremlin
Winner 1st tier = Pikeman. Master gremlins are usually good for 1 shot before they get cut down. Pikeman are damn tough for a 1st tier.

Archer Vs Gargoyle
Winner 2st tier = Archer, by a hell of a lot. Archers get 2 shots and gargolyes are just too fragile, I don't even make them when playing Tower.

Griffin Vs Golem
Winner 3rd tier = Griffin, by a hell of a lot again. Griffin has soli speed, damage and the unlimited retaliation can be so annoying if you play them right. Golems are so slow and don't dish out enough damage to conpensate. 75% magic resistance is useless when no one in their right mind would waste a spell on them.

Swordsman Vs Mage
Winner 4th tier = Swordsman by a bit. The double attack is just too powerful, but Mages are really strong shooters.

Monk Vs Genie
Winner 5th tier = Monk by a bit. They can do their full damage in hand to hand. The fact that Castle has 2-3 solid meat sheilds make their shooters more effective. Genies are decent. Good speed, alright damage, low hp for a 5th tier non-shooter, but I don't find their spells all that useful.

Cavalier Vs Naga
Winner 6th tier = Naga Queens. They are certainly the best tier 6 unit, but they are damn expensive and Cavaliers are top 5 in tier 6 and their ability is really easy to use and has huge benefits.

Angel Vs Titan
Winner 7th tier = Titan. Tier 7 shooter with crazy damage and hp? Arch angels are great (will give you first action every round), but Ward is right when he said that their ressurection isn't that good. With less than 7-8 Angels you won't be ressurecting that many units and a lot of the time you wouldn't want to waste the damage they can dish out. I usually find myself sending Angels in and ressurecting themselves late in the battle.

Nice to see a real HOMM player agree with me. I just dislike Titan cause they look ugly, about preferences like I said.

Ward is just talking out of his ass. Talks as he is good in TW, but still a random newbie, and prolly a random newbie in HOMM too.

[RATTY...]

Was wondering which difficulty you guys played HOMM V on?

I did one of the maps on heroic, but when I do heroic on the other maps, I get assraped with unbelieveable amounts of units, I think the computer cheats :P

[AngelsGirl]

Heroic but......
I got CE.
Nuff said.

(PS. Lan ftw)

[Eric is God]

I've managed to beat every scenario on the hardest difficulty allowed (some scenarios won't let you choose the hardest difficulty).

[deathking]

hmm...is there a way to work the game with geforce 4 mx? 3d analyze crashes the game (mayb becuz i selected the wrong ones)

[Vatican Assassin]

i'll consider playing 5 again when someone can tell me how to eliminate the god damned hero attack animation. every time they attack it shows them run up and hi tthe enemy and grunt its soooooo annoying. i can't find a mod to eliminate it please help me. if this doesn't bother you then you're crazy.

[Galleleo]

I liked HOMM3 (or was it 4) way better then 5. I especially dislike the creatures in this one..
