Heroes 3: FORT NOXIS - The Defensive Map That Isn't 

I've been playing for a very long time and I just realised that !

lol i have played this for about 23 years now and i didnt know that!

i think it's called the thieves' guild? but yeah it's crazy how there's still more to learn no matter how long you've played this game for

Yeah, it took a while for me to figure out as well, I first played this game around the age of 10. Fast and stable Internet connections were not that widely available for cheap back then, and even if they were, I doubt there would have been any wikis to search for information like nowadays. One skill in particular that I didn't quite get was related to the travelling distance. There was, I think, Logistics, which increases movement points on the adventure map, but then there was something like... Pathfinding? Which increases movement points on "rough" terrain or something? I always opted not to choose that one because I thought it is related to the 'rough' terrain type, which I remember was one of the basic types like snow, grass, sand, etc. In retrospect, however, I've started to wonder whether it meant every terrain type that does not have a road on it... Yeah, I know, I could just google it.

Same here. Still learning new features about this awesome game after decades of playing it.

A member of the HotA art team posted on the Russian forum a month or two ago, said they're still working on it. I don't think they ever promised a release date, to be fair. They've likely been set back by the mod leader passing away and the war

I haven't properly tried the campaigns tbh, I sure hope they work ok. My HD mod settings are: Mode: 32-bit OpenGL by Verok Source size: 1280x720 Stretch filter: xBRZx2 + Lanczos

I haven't played much of those tbh and I'm not a fan of the 3D style after H4, but I'm hoping to try them properly one day with an open mind

You get 2 towns, one is next to all your gold with extra dwellings, why wouldn't you just invest in that one?

This map is also the definition of "the best defense is a good offense"

Ctrl+click splits them to onestacks, Shift+click splits them to halfstacks. I don't know if it works in vanilla, but I'm pretty sure it does in Shadow of Death

It's possible with the HD mod. This is only vanilla in the sense that I played on Shadow of Death instead of HotA

A lot of people do
