Posts from The most intense battles are in Heroes of Might and Magic III and V.

Post screenshots or videos of your epic battles; I would be very grateful:smile14:

Here's an example from the "Blood of the Dragon" campaign (Heroes 3: Armageddon's Blade). This monstrosity had more than twice the number of troops as I did (though he didn't have any dragons), and it took me a while to finally defeat him.

Sorry, but what are Heroes 3 and 5 doing here? This is a section for Heroes 5! Let's keep the topic focused!

I apologize, but what are Heroes 3 and 5 doing here? This is a section for the fifth installment! This topic is turning into a flood!

Why immediately call it a flood? IMHO, the idea of the topic is interesting, but either the title should only include the 5th part, or it should be moved to the section for all Heroes games. The only thing I don't quite understand is how to handle battles from parts 3 and 4, because replays can't be made there, and posting save files is not quite the same, IMHO. In general, Stalker, decide for yourself what you think is best and talk to the moderators about moving/renaming the topic, because right now the title doesn't really match the section.

Yes, and you went overboard with the videos. It's unlikely that anyone will download an entire video just to watch a battle. At least, I wouldn't.

I didn't download the video either. I'll just remind you where you can find the most epic battles – it's in the campaign in the basic Heroes of Might and Magic V, playing as the Dark Elves, when Railag attacks the demons, trying to save Isabelle. The armies there are simply huge, but mostly the demons have them. And towards the end of the month, Railag encounters a demon hero with an army that is at least twice as large as his (that's how it was intended), but despite everything, he wins, about a third of his army remains, the enemy castle is captured, but immediately destroyed. At that moment, it shocked me a little. Despite this, I continue the game, gather an army in the creature dwellings that is slightly smaller than the first, and I encounter a powerful Inferno hero again. Another battle, and again my victory, which I was very surprised by. In the end, after another month, the map was completed, but I will not forget this mission, where troops were dying by the hundreds. Another battle, even more epic, was in the Tribes of the East add-on, in the third mission playing as the Undead. There was an Orc town there, maintaining complete neutrality. However, it was a tempting piece of land. Towards the end of the mission, I couldn't resist and attacked. The approximate composition of the enemy army was: Cyclops - 300, Paoka - 500, 5th level (I don't remember which upgrade) - 750, then Daughters of Earth - 1000, Mercenaries - 1300, Centaurs - about 2000, and Goblin Shamans - about 2500. I failed several times, and it was all because of the Cyclops. However, I gathered Undead, turned several human castles into Undead, and finally took the town. Then my army consisted of about 250 Phantom Dragons, 300 Undead, 450 Liches, 600 Vampires, 1300 Ghosts, 2300 Plague Zombies, and about 7000 Skeleton Archers. The main thing was the Dominate spell – with its help, I quickly turned the enemy units against each other. And I came out with fairly decent losses. In the end, towards the end of the battle, all my units finished off the remaining Cyclops, and the Cyclops completely wiped out the Vampires and Skeleton Archers. I earned about 250,000 experience points. That was an epic battle, the most epic of all the time I've played Heroes of Might and Magic V!

in the very last mission, there are huge armies!

Yes, but still, it’s smaller, about 2-3 times smaller compared to that neutral army later on, but the main challenge in that mission is that as soon as you capture the city where the orcs appear, Alaric immediately comes out. I found a solution – with another hero, I gathered reinforcements from the captured magic cities and gave Alaric a proper fight!

Here's a recording of my tough battle with 5 heroes on a Ubi server, on custom maps. I didn't manage to bring reinforcements to my troops in time, so the opponent, playing as Necropolis, had three times the number of units, but I still won.

I promise to improve; this is just the first time I'm posting topics.
