Nostalgia: Heroes of Might and Magic V

The game was released back in 2006, and 11 years have passed since the release of the fifth installment. Oh, time flies...

How much time and energy we spent on this wonderful game. Isn't time spent with pleasure considered well-spent? Right?) You might ask, why the 5th part, and not the 3rd! Heroes 3 is an evergreen classic! I completely agree with you, but... you'll find out more by watching the video. Enjoy!

The "Ranger" campaign. The hero Faidaen, with his elven army, initially fought as usual: if the battle is in manual mode, then all shots and attacks must be controlled. But at some point, at the beginning of the battle, the archers and druids started shooting at some target on their own, and then the battle continued as usual, under the control of the player. There is nothing about this "first strike" of these units in the hero's abilities or equipment bonuses. What is this ability, and where does it come from?

Faidaen's special ability allows him to have all elven archers shoot at the lowest-level target before the battle begins. At the beginning, they shoot weakly compared to normal damage, but as the Haven level increases, the ability becomes stronger. So they shoot from the first level.

Guys, can you tell me how to deal with AI slowdowns in long missions? It's simply unbearable to play for 3-5 months. The computer takes 10 minutes per turn. What is it doing there? Is there a way to reduce its turn time?


The best thing I can advise is to install a mod that speeds up the AI's turns.

S3-5P4Z12B4 – this map is designed for 4 players (each has an additional castle; P4 indicates this). If it’s possible to change P4 to P2 or simply add your own template, please let me know.

Is it possible to reassign hotkeys in this installment of "Heroes"? It's a bit inconvenient as it is. Most games allow you to reassign keys, but I don't see that option in "Heroes 5"... Maybe it can be done by editing the game files?

You need to edit the **input.cfg** file.

Thank you, it worked!)

Sometimes I'm editing the files to change the button assignments, and sometimes for the console. And not even because I can't play without cheats, but simply because the game freezes in one place, and without cheats, I can't get past it! This isn't a game, it's some kind of "Do-it-yourself" kit!

against ghosts, ghosts can't be used!!

Added 7 minutes later


The counter is general!!! for all creatures with incorporeality in battle!!
i.e., your ghosts attack (-1), enemy ghosts retaliate (-2), and then they hit you... or (-3), and your retaliation deals damage..
the point is that this limit is !general! for ALL UNITS with incorporeality..

I hope I explained it clearly..

I'll correct myself in 2019 -_-". Not 3x, but 2x stacks (i.e., on the 3rd time, it's always a hit or a miss).

I've noticed a pattern with phantoms – if the summoning magic skill level isn't high, the phantom is always taken down with the first hit. If the summoning skill is at an expert level, the AI doesn't always hit the phantom.

Interesting. I hadn't noticed that, but I'll keep it in mind for the future.

Hello. I felt nostalgic and installed Heroes 5 Gold, but I immediately encountered a familiar problem that I couldn't solve a couple of years ago, and I gave up: in the in-game cutscenes, the movement of trees has about 5 FPS, and the circle under the hero on the map also has such a low FPS, which prevents me from enjoying the game. Everything else seems to work normally, except that in TotE, the menu battle with the cyclops is displayed incorrectly, but that's a minor issue.
I tried various compatibility settings in the properties, and other solutions found online, but nothing helped.
Maybe someone here knows something, thanks.

Hello. I'm new here. I recently learned that when leveling up a hero, opponents also increase their army size. I can't seem to defeat the red hero in the "Siege" map [1st campaign, 3rd mission]. How many days do you usually need to play to figure out which hero to use to beat him?

Have you noticed that the heroes of the "Inferno" faction have tusks on their helmets? Well, they do! And what's more, the Devils (a 7th-tier creature of this faction) have exactly the same tusks. Therefore, we can assume two possible scenarios. The first is that the icon of the hero of this faction is a Devil. The second is that the hero attached them in his grandfather's shed, met up with some friends, and started begging them – "Take a picture, make it look like I'm a Devil!!!" In this regard, the question arises: how much beer would one have to drink to come up with this theory? And seriously, this question bothers me and keeps me awake at night; what do you think about it?

What did you mean? Everyone is here: in the bushes, under the stones... Browse the topics dedicated to mapmaking, mods, and tournaments – there, oh boy, life is bustling; there's plenty to discuss! But what's here? What is there? Well, nothing. There's simply nothing to discuss about Heroes 5. But if topics for discussion appear, you'll see where everyone is.

But, what am I saying? Yes, you're right. There aren't many people. Or rather, there are, but not as many as before. The "Heroes" are "dying" figuratively speaking, interest in them is waning. That's why there aren't many people... 😒
