Which is stronger, a Castle or a Conflux? — Tactics

Conflux is definitely stronger. Only Phoenixes have the advantage of going first due to their high speed (and going first, as everyone knows, is a 100% advantage when casting spells... any spell can decide the outcome of the battle)... by sending Phoenixes to attack first and applying a speed buff (expert skill), you can achieve a significant number of Phoenixes, so even an Archangel will go after them, which means the Castle's archers no longer have an advantage! In principle, a Castle without archers is the end of the game... Griffons are insignificant, Crusaders can offer some resistance due to their repeated attack, and the beloved horses can take out our beloved Phoenix in one go, but the Phoenix will resurrect... (I didn't consider the Archangel because he has two options - either resurrect or attack our archers in the Conflux)... Don't forget about our elemental magic, which destroys everything around without any response and cannot be affected by spells... 100% in this battle, even with an equal number, Conflux wins!

That's funny. You need to consider the development of this Castle, not just a battle between equal armies at the end

Yes, if you compare the development, then the Conflux is definitely better, because phoenixes are incredibly cheap and quickly available! As you know, an archer costs 3 gems and 5000 gold, while a phoenix costs only 1 mercury and half the amount of gold... and besides, unlike a castle, the resource depot of the Conflux provides mercury, not useless stones and wood!!! As for building elemental magic, everything is great here! We build a second guild and then upgrade the 6th-level elements... (since the castle specializes in magic, the guild will only be a plus!) And the rest of the creatures are mostly not difficult to obtain!

The first argument: in the Conflux, to build Phoenixes, you need to build all units in order, while in the Castle, you don't have to build Knights and Chickens.

The Conjuration skill has a relatively cheap upgrade. But recruiting angels costs 20,000 gold. Most likely, phoenixes and angels will become available in the same week. However, horses will appear later, after level 6 of the Conjuration skill, because the money was directly spent on recruiting angels. And the first turn of the phoenixes is terrifying. With a single phoenix, you attack the entire castle army, hitting the angels with an explosion, and then bribe your way out. You might get caught and put in shackles, but on fixed maps, this is often disabled, and it doesn't happen that often on random maps either. You can test it out, even sacrificing a phoenix to do so. And in a battle between full armies, it's not always necessary to cast Haste or Slow on the first turn, because the opponent might have the counter-spell. Often, it turns into a battle of nerves, where each player tries to cast the spell first, and in this case, the first turn (and the last turn in a drawn-out battle) of the phoenixes can often be decisive. In general, the Castle faction has many strong points. And also, about the heroes. The Warriors in both castles are roughly equal. But the Mages of Conflux are stronger. They have magical stats of 3.3, and Wisdom is accompanied by some kind of secondary magic skill, which is good for combat.

I am 100% sure that Conflux is the best faction. Building Archangels and Angels requires an INCREDIBLE amount of resources, and even without building Knights and Chickens, it's difficult to manage the resources to reach 20 of each resource and 40,000 gold. And the purchase price is very high!

First argument: in the Conflux, to build Phoenixes, you need to build all units in order, while in the Castle, you don't need to build Knights and Chickens.

Second argument: in the Conflux, dirty butterflies are built, which destroy all slow units on the map. This, in turn, significantly simplifies the construction of all units in order.

29580 + 6 gems to buy weekly production in the Castle
28500 gold + 4 mercury to buy weekly production in the Conflux

I don't see a huge difference

And the production from the Castle is much stronger than the production from the Conflux.

Everyone already knows this... Butterflies and the fast Storm element are a winning combination near nearby resources and mines.

Second argument: at the Conflux, upgraded Archers are built, which eliminate all slow units on the map. This, in turn, significantly simplifies the construction of all units in the correct order.

In this case, upgraded Archers are built, which also eliminate everyone very effectively.

I've been playing Heroes for 9 years now, and for 8 of those years, I've only played as Inferno, and I don't want to hear anything about other factions anymore =)

Denying other castles doesn't make Inferno the strongest.

of course. You need to be able to play with all the factions, but I see the strength in this faction and it's very significant. I don't understand the argument that Inferno is the weakest faction. The only faction in which I don't see any sense or strength is the Swamp... but that's just my opinion, although there are valid counterarguments, because I know a person in London who plays with the Swamp as if he was born there and knows everything about it.

I have arguments in favor of merging.

1) Calculate the cost of building castles, taking into account all troops. Castle is more expensive.
2) - the number of dates in Conflux, there are four of them per week! And there are only two angels.
3) And where are the heroes better? Mages are definitely better in Conflux, and warriors probably are too. And in the game, everything depends on luck, you can play with any castle.

1) maybe you can calculate the total attack and defense of both castles?
2) that's a really strong argument... :) Maybe it's worth reminding about conservatories?
3) heroes? Are mages definitely better in Conflux? How?
And maybe Sir Mullich will give you a hard time with warriors in the castle?

Of course. You need to be able to play with all the castles, but I see the strength in this castle, and it's very significant. I don't understand the argument that Inferno is the weakest castle. The only city where I don't see any sense or strength is the swamp... but that's just me, although there are valid counterarguments, because I know a person in London who plays with the swamp as if he was born there and knows everything.

But what does Inferno have to do with it? The topic is – which is stronger, a castle or a Conflux?
