I'm very happy for the HD version I didn't know that the game had two more expansions so that just shows you how little I know about the game. Me and a buddy did play this game when it first came out not demo version but probably early nineties.
@32:18 Oh thank God for that edit, haha. I was prepping my pitchfork. Love your channel, by the way. Makes me realize how terrible I was at this game as a kid.
Picking pathfinding would have probably been the better option since you already lost so many grand elves and since the map has lots of rough terrain, would be a good alternative to logistics.
I just skipped around this video and heard "EarthElelmentals could save our bacon, it's quite unlikely but they could" followed by my next skip seeing a bunch of earth elemental fighting diamond golems lol
I don't know if someone already mentioned or you figured out by yourself, but here is why it jumps from town to character, and how to avoid it: When you select a town, you have the buildings tab, and the garrison tab. When you are on the garrison tab, the captain is selected, and the arrows will get you through your armies. When you are on the buildings tab, the town itself is selected, and then the arrows will switch between your towns. So if you want to do your taxes the way you were trying to, make sure to have the "buildingstab" selected.
Totaly agree with you mate, i cant even remmeber the name of the game but still cant forget how the organic structure had damage and collapsing with that gore, what a perfect time of gaming. i think you are also 30+, times flies 🖖🏻
You can send 1 stacks of a main hero to a pandora's box, so if it's guarded you can flee and just re hire from the nearest town, if it's safe well you get all the potential rewards for the right hero
in 1:20:00 you could've protected your main armadillo stack by bringing any 1-stack near the big stone thus avoiding breath attack. I mean, yeah they moraled but still would be worth it.
Most differences feels artificial and limiting. Instead of taking homm3 formula and adding some minor mechanics to perfection they decided to innovate.
Not sure if this matters to you, but "Alamar" (13:53) was the name of the king in _Might and Magic, Book I: The Secret of the Inner Sanctum._ Sheltem the Dark ("Sheltemburg") impersonated him and attempted to drive the planet of VARN-4 into the sun because he was mental. He last donned the alias on XEEN, but as a warlord instead of a king. Incidentally, Lord Alamar, the Warlock hero from this _Heroes_ series, is completely unrelated to either King Alamar or Sheltem the Dark. The only thing they share is a name. This is unlike heroes such as Crag Hack, Kastore, Ambrose, and Dimitri.
This is like my all-time favorite game. When steam made it available it was like 30 bucks for five of the games. It was like Heroes 3, 5, and 7. It was a steal when it dropped down to like $15 for everything. I played this Heroes game on the computer when it first came out and then as time went on we jumped to Heroes. 3. I'm kind of saddened you couldn't get the expansions, but honestly we didn't have that much experience with the expansion. So be nice to learn from what we can see how you play the game. Especially when my friends like he calls the last level and the campaign b******* because you get like three four bases and you get bombarded from the very beginning
