Discussion about the Stronghold faction.

The Elves and Mages turned out the best for the developers of HoMM6; the others don't even come close.

In my imagination, they also turned out better.

P.s. although, in my opinion, a Troll would have been better.

It would have been better to bring back the Rukh.

The Centaurs... I must admit, they look pretty good.

You can see the Cyclops from a distance, but there's no doubt that it's a Cyclops. By the way, it looks very similar to the unit of the same name from "Heroes 5."

In general, the Orcs turned out pretty well. The situation with the Shamans and the new unit is still a bit unclear. But overall, I like the race. :)

You can also conclude from these screenshots that the graphics are pleasing. :)

But for some reason, I didn't like them; the developers clearly chose the wrong model for the gender change:smile30:.
Yes, it's definitely a Cyclops; you can tell by the presence of one eye. I'd like to see them up close...
Yes, I also liked the Orcs, especially the core units, but in the elite tier, I think Blackhole went a bit overboard, changing the gender of the Shamans and removing the Wyverns. They added Jaguar Warriors, which immediately reminded me of Warhammer 40000. Although the unupgraded ones are still decent, I liked the Centaurs, and I'll get used to them over time. Although, visually, the Orcs look very good. I'm just surprised that they said there would be 3 ranged units in the faction, which is very unusual for a race that prefers physical strength...
The screenshots are great; the mountains are simply huge compared to the objects, as they should be. The water expanses are magnificent; you can even see the reefs. There wasn't anything like this in the previous Heroes games; that's what a new graphics engine and Ubisoft's support mean
