I was actually pleasantly surprised by HOTA. I expected some broken barely working mod but instead got a package that wouldn't feel out of place if it was in the original game. The Cove town looks HoMM-y and not cheap, kudos to comrades for their hard work.
Chris I must tell you, some of my fondest childhood memories were while playing this game, with my friends and brothers. Watching you play I can relive all those memories without the anxiety of losing :) . Thank you!
Hi, thanks for video. just a tip: Nomads' sandwalker special ability causes hero to ignore terrain penalty on sand. This ability applies if the hero has at least one nomad in his army.
Hi Chris, a useful shortcut in HD mod is to hit Q at any time in combat to resolve quick combat from the current state of the battle. Just entering battle and throwing Mass Slow and then hit Q is great for quickly beating easy fights with no losses.
Hey, I very like your videos :D And portal in dungeon can summon one of the creatures of your acquired buildings to recruit on map, so if it's possible and you have dungeon it's very good to don't take buildings what recruit for example nomads, only dragons, because you have 100% chance to recruit this in portal when you have only habitat with dragon.
Hey Chris! I might be in the minority here, but are you planning to play another Civilization 4 / try out Civilization 5 again at any point in the future? Your videos are awesome, and are worth watching whatever game it is you choose to play. Thanks for keeping uploading videos throughout all these years and for staying true to your fans. Cheers!
+Chris67132 I like homm3 but only the first part after that you get a unbeatable hero and simply take out the entire map. In civ4 at least it's challenging from beginning to end.
While quite late it's never too late to learn, Offense and Armorer are the 2 most powerful skills in the game next to Earth Magic and Logistics. Out of the 3 Intelligence Specialists Ayden is the best because he's a Heretic which means he has a hightened chance of getting Offence (4/112 compared to Andra's 2/112), Earth Magic (4/112 compared to 3/112), and Tactics (4/112 compared to 1/112)
I don't think the conservatories were modded. Weren't they always giving that amount of angels? 10 griffons per stack = 1 angel, 20 griffons = 2 and 30 griffons = 3?
Lol...somehow this came right after your 2018 Homm2 game. So I thought this was from 2018 too. You are still talking about Hota crashing a lot and I never saw that Homm6 playthrough you spoke about here :P
Another amazing playthrough, thanks, Chris! Hell, your Heroes 3 vidoes are even more amazing than usual when you DON'T have Town Portal/Dimension Door/Armageddon spells. PS. Ever considered doing Fallout 1 or 2 playthrough? Man, I'd love to see you play this classic games.
Love your homm3 vids so far. Any chance to play the Empire of the World II map? Also I'd love to see some challenging vids by you like: playing on Grigor Minchev maps, Wayfarer, Lone Knight, etc.
lol that skirmish with the faerie dragons! xD also, it seems like you're using HD Mod, but I don't think you have it enabled. Such as when I have HD Mod on, the adventure screen allows me to see all eight heroes in the hero slots, not just 5. But its an interesting gameplay!
hey chris great vids I bought this game because of these vids and subbed ! great content I was wondering whos your #1 hero and favorite town is ? I like necropolis with thant that always seems to scare the AI when you have 1k skeletons !
You should try your hands on some of HotA's actual challenge maps (Only 1 available starting option and odds are carefully stacked against you). From the Depths of Hell and A Cold Day in Hell come to mind. The first is hard but doable with significant reloading, A Cold Day in Hell is extremely hard.
+DzhonijsTorpeeda HOTA I don't actually know too well. But I'm not sure what I could mention other than what I've shown in the videos I've already made.
Hey Chris , i really enjoy your videos cause i really like Homm series :D and i Wonder ... what do you think in general about the WoG mode of H3?... to me looks too far fetched. but i wanna hear your opinion on it... is it well made ? is it well rounded ? does it makes H3 a lot better or it doesn't ? i would like to hear your opinion on it... Thank being sad , keep up the good work
1:52:27 hahaha can't help but laugh here, could there be any worse 2 to choose from? All the witch huts and university didn't give any useful either. Bad luck
hey!sorry for being mean but I played the game too (not the mission) but I think it would be more easier if you upgrade the castle and the town hall at maximum
Can you learn spells with eagle eye from your own troops? Running with fairie dragons and expert eagle eye might not make that skill complete and utter crap...
Yeah thats true, when i think about it i dont think i have ever seen you struggle on any map. Love youre vids chris ur commentary and knowledge on the game is awsome to watch and lissen to, keep it up!! ur my fav
"When I get a graphics card, it will be Might and Magic VI" The game I've waited three years for... lol. Can you send me a link to your game and build?
