Posts from “Heroes of Might and Magic V: Tribes of the East”

Cool Orcs... they're powerful, they remind me of something... maybe Warcraft 3? P.S. When will the expansion pack be available in stores?! :(

Cool Orcs... powerful, they remind me of something... maybe Warcraft 3?
P.S. When will the expansion be available in stores?!:(

Its release is planned for September-October...

And all the units there resemble units from other games...

Yeah... the Orcs really look like demons...

That's right, because their blood is demonic. )
Although, I'm more used to green Orcs, but that's okay.

But nowadays, a different color is in fashion... Green is for elves and necromancers...

In general, I'm really looking forward to this expansion... it's very interesting. I'm curious how they will kill Biara...

I looked at the new screenshots of the Orcs, and I really want to know more about the Cyclops...
They shoot with their eye, like in the first and second Heroes games, but judging by the screenshot, they shoot over one cell (or maybe it just seems that way), which means there will be no counterattack from enemies, and they respond with their hand (which is why they have such big hands) =)
Or is it an ability that can be used several times... and their main attack is melee? )
P.S. Also, they eat goblins and heal =))) conclusion from the interview I read.

also, judging by the screenshots, it seems that the cyclops will occupy at least half of the battlefield.

Here are 6 more screenshots from "Tribes of the East" :)

And judging by them, some Orcs wield fire... Interesting...

And the Wyverns use lightning!)

Yes, the videos and screenshots are impressive, and I really want to play Heroes 5: Tribes of the East as soon as possible! The Cyclops are cool. Also, the level 3 Orc Warriors are pretty good and hit hard. They really do look like demons.

Hopefully, this won't negatively impact the balance. With such "resistance to all magic," it won't make much difference to the Orcs who they fight; just level up the necessary abilities, and that's it. But the Orcs' opponents will have to forget about magic and focus solely on attack and defense, plus something else... and that's not very interesting or right (how can Mages exist without Phoenixes, and how can Elves exist without Arcane Wave?).

I think the "resistance to all magic" will be partial, and you'll also have to spend levels and skill slots on these abilities...
As I understand it, in the skill wheel, Orcs will have corresponding resistance instead of magic (instead of dark magic - resistance to dark magic, etc.), so reaching the corresponding level of resistance won't be that easy...
Or am I mistaken?

As far as I know, the balance will be revised, and I'm really looking forward to the Orcs; they're such a cool faction. But according to what's written in the magazines, it seems they won't be casting spells again, but will only be hindering enemy magic.
I'm placing such high hopes on them.... Judging by the screenshots, they look so awesome, terrifying, and strong, and they also have a bloodlust; aaaah, I want them, and they also enter a rage....

As I understand it, in the skill wheel, instead of magic, Orcs will have corresponding resistance (instead of dark magic - resistance to dark magic, etc.), so reaching the corresponding level of resistance will not be that easy...
Or am I mistaken?

For now, there is no information at all about how this system will work...
We can only guess...
Although this example is probably correct.

I thought the same way even before the screenshots. That they will need to level up counter-magic for each type of magic. This is the most logical. So they will also have to work hard to win!

and you thought it would be that easy... of course, it was said that the balance would be revised... so, Orcs are strong, but you need to put in some effort to level them up... most likely, they will have a progressive scaling... starting weak and then becoming powerful... or vice versa...
