We conducted an analytical study with the intention of identifying the best combat race. After that, we were convinced that Heroes of Might and Magic 3 has a balance, and a very good one at that. But these studies still gave us the opportunity to identify the strongest combat race in Heroes of Might and Magic 3. These studies should not, in any way, influence your opinion on the strength of the races, because only the power characteristics were taken into account here (plus a couple of features that you will learn about below). The following were not taken into account: magical features, economic factors, and all other factors that affect the strength of each nation.

The study was conducted as follows: All seven units of each race were studied. From all nine castles, the strongest unit of each of the seven levels was identified. The best creature was identified taking into account all characteristics (attack, defense, damage, health, speed, as well as growth rate, taking into account the construction of the castle). Also, each unit with a special ability (such as +1 to the morale of all troops, retaliatory strike, etc.) is given a score from 1 to 4, depending on the usefulness and strength of the ability (example: protection against blinding in troglodytes - 1 point; retaliatory strike + regeneration in a vampire - 3 points). Each creature was given a test score (depending on the strength of the characteristics) and a rating score (depending on the characteristics of other creatures of the same level). Even such a thorough study could not give a one hundred percent picture, and therefore, in controversial cases, the winner was determined using computer simulation. Two heroes with absolutely identical characteristics (which, one might say, did not exist; both heroes had no primary or secondary skills, no spellbooks, and neutral morale and luck; the hero was also neutral in all battles) had to fight to determine the strongest unit.

And archdevils in second place and phoenixes in third?
Qwerty
Second place for skeleton warriors ahead of halberdiers, for example?
There were big arguments about this; it was necessary to take into account the fact that there are a very large number of skeletons in the necromancer's army. In the end, I lost this argument with my partner. And, taking into account their supposed number, they were placed higher than halberdiers!
Qwerty
And the second-to-last place for fairy queens, where did that come from?
They only have good speed and retaliatory strike; they lose in all other parameters, verified by comparing them in battles with halberdiers.
Qwerty
And archdevils in second place and phoenixes in third?
Archdevils have a higher total of parameters than many others (324 points for all indicators, taking into account retaliatory strike, -1 to luck, while phoenixes have 303 points).
And phoenixes (again, I lost an argument) were taken into account due to their huge growth rate.
P.S. Guys, maybe we shouldn't get angry, especially Romashsh; I did this study not wanting to offend anyone with bad results.
