- A reference guide and manual in Russian for Heroes 3.

It's interesting why the manual (p. 50) states that the maximum number of stacks during a battle is 6, when some players, including myself, have encountered 7 stacks. And secondly, how do these formulas apply, and how can they help? For example, I have 5 Angels, 25 Vivs, and 50 Archers. I'm attacking a horde of Ifrits. Do I need to know their exact number to calculate the stacks? For example, using Visions, we found out that there are 60 of them. How do I find k? In other words, do I need to sum the health of my stacks to find A?
