thx! really great videos

We've come to a point where the Chinese are teaching us how to take maximum advantage of the Necropolis... *facepalm*

The first video was recorded specifically for psyche_7. After his stream yesterday, I was a bit shocked.

And that maxed-out Necropolis is truly facepalm-worthy :D

Nothing funny about it. More than half of people can’t do this properly. And you just sit around and haven’t recorded a single video on this topic. Respect to the Chinese.

A truly useful video! Thank you.

I already knew the rest.

Well, it's a classic. You block with a level 1 unit and lure them onto a level 2 unit, and the arrows fly through the wall. It's a shame that this can't be used practically anywhere. I was more impressed by the screenshots of giants fighting with ranged units, although the idea is the same.

Thx a lot for your post. In fact it is not true if i say that we haven't known it yet, but nice videos anyway.

I think, that nobody tell it before. The real best players of Russia-Ukraine play in heroes WT version. It is upgrade of SOD version made by russian enthusiasts(the first try was in 2005), with a new view on balance of castles. It is also replaces bugs of original h3. There is a chance that someone of you will find it interesting. Site www.heroeswt.net. You can find the manual with a full list of changes there.

Another suggestion is HD-MOD - special program which changes the interface(not game play). It adds a buttons for quick excnage of armies, artifacts, also removes the bugs, life viewing of enemy castle. 99% of russian players use it with heroes 3. One problem is that i'm not sure if it is compatible
with chinese fonts. You can download it here https://sites.google.com/site/heroes3hd/eng/description. Thank you for attention).

I decided to post Lionryo's videos after watching Dirty Player's signature videos. In fact, before making this thread, I have already posted Dirty Player's videos on Gamerhome.net http://www.gamerhome.net/bbs/viewthread.php?tid=355533 (hope the author wouldn't mind). Both HeroesWorld.ru and Gamerhome.net have accumulated many tactics and inspiring moves like these over the last decade. It is a pity that we haven't exchanged these resources to engage more Heroes 3 fans from both sides. For example, Lionryo has developed his moves long time ago but it was only possible to share these videos after 2009 when youtube copycats got more and more popular.

WT and HD-MODs are great tools! Yet it takes time to persuade every hardcore player to adopt the new stuff since they are so used to the old parameters--there were some discussion on Gamerhome.net earlier this year about promoting WT. I saw numOne's effort in pushing this community to use WT as well /topic/8029/.

Your suggestions have been forwarded to Gamerhome.net. Please feel free to let me know if there are something else that any of you want to share with us!

I believe "sharing facilitates understanding." Hopefully these exchanges will help us bypass the language barrier and increase the bonds between two big groups of Heroes fans.

You might find this interesting. Given that you enjoy playing Desert War.

Added after 2 hours and 2 minutes
HD MOD doesn't impact the game's balance; it simply enhances the user interface.

WT, on the other hand, is more geared towards experienced players. It fully rebalances the magic system, making all schools of magic equally viable. It also affects traps and character abilities... Future updates will include features like simultaneous movement and mirrored formations.

The main person who represented Heroes 3 WT has left Homm forums. I will try to do something in this way a bit later. But now i wanna suppose a best russian fix-map ever(due to the opinion of strong players) which is called Land of Magic.

Some comments:

1. Size L+U. All heroes are allowed on this map
2. Diplomacy and joining monsters are allowed.
3. It is recommended thoroughly explore this map with the map-editor before playing.
4. Choosing castles by elimination: you can eliminate races both for you and your opponent. The scheme is 1-1-1-2-2-1. It means that first player eliminates one castle(either for himself or for opponent), then his opponet 1, then again 1 ... etc, till the final result will be found.

.............

Forgot to say, the obligatе final battle(if there is need) is on 2.3.4 in the center(snow).

..............

Contact between players is possible from the first week(but it demands good understanding of the map)

This map is big!!! How long does it usually take to end the AI phase and meet the opponent? How many months to finish one match?

How many months to finish one match?

months? :) Size does not matter. The match can end in the second and even the first week. The main advantage of this map is that there are many variations. Test this map and make sure.

i mean not just this 4 video... more video at

And some of them really nice.

I noticed some interesting behavior when capturing control points with Luna, depending on the difficulty level; I wasn't aware of this before. I think the other two-hex neutral creatures behave similarly. On foot, they rush into the fire, even if they're facing it head-on. On horseback, they immediately defend. And only with the rook-queen-king unit do they wait first, then defend.
