I'm facing a specific issue in this mission. On the first day, I move the heroes, their turns end, and I skip a day... but skipping a day takes about 5 minutes. Although it could take a maximum of a minute and a half. Please, comrades, advise me on what to do. I'm starting to feel the urge to cheat, but I don't want to because I'll miss a cool cutscene, and I like the cutscenes! Help me. Thank you in advance. P.S. The game version is 1.1. I've heard it's buggy, but in some places.

I read all the comments, and many people had some difficulties, but I don't know, the mission seemed very easy to me. The only thing is that it took quite a long time to complete, because I set a goal to take all the heroes through all the upgrade paths. Otherwise, I systematically captured all the castles, cleared the entire territory, built everything to the maximum, and when I came to fight Isabel, her army consisted of 11 Archangels and 35 Paladins..., and I had 114 Archangels, 145 Paladins..., and moreover, her army didn't increase at all, so the battle turned out to be quick and easy. Well, if necessary, I could have gathered an immeasurable undead army.

Let me tell you, this is a very easy level! But at the beginning, it's a bit difficult because you need to capture at least a few castles to proceed. I did the following: I specifically trained all my Haven troops (except for the Angels) in the training arena. The funny thing is, I had a lot of troops! I deliberately sent a hero with 20 archers to Railag so that I wouldn't fail the mission. Then, Godric approached (I had 1.6k knights and 43 archangels + I took 30 hellhounds from Railag and Shadia) and destroyed Isabella! )))
P.S. I leveled up all the heroes so that they could fight, and in the final mission, I had Railag at level 27, Godric at level 34, Faidaen at level 33, and Zephyr at level 36!

Are those the heroes' levels? :eek: As far as I remember, in the 4th mission, the maximum level for hero development is thirty. So, you probably exaggerated a bit! :rolleyes:

Well, from the very beginning, the AI also took a long time to think (compared to other missions, it was clearly noticeable), not five minutes, of course, but it could think for a minute (especially, I think, the brown one took a long time), but there's nothing you can do about it; at the beginning, it has eight castles. Then, as the territory is gradually captured, the situation slowly improves. Version 1.1 really has a lot of bugs, so I advise you to patch to a more serious version, preferably to version 1.5. But I don't think this will significantly affect the problem. Most likely, you just don't have enough RAM :)

I actually have 1GB of RAM! And I can't patch the game. It always says: "The program is either not installed or installed incorrectly. Reinstalling the program may solve this problem." I think I'm installing it correctly, near the game's shortcut. In general, I don't know how to properly patch the HoMM5 game. Damn, what should I do??? :smile35: :smile35:

First, you can ask what version of Windows you have. If it's Vista, it always asks that, you just need to say that everything is installed correctly and run the game. If it's XP, I don't know, I haven't had that problem. P.S. Moderators, please move these posts to the appropriate topic.

Well, 1GB of RAM is good, but 2GB is better! Especially if you really have Vista. If you have a licensed copy, the patches should install without problems, but you need to install them in order, for example, if your game version is 1.1, you can't immediately patch it to version 1.5. First 1.1, then 1.2... 1.5.

For example, if you have version 1.1 of the game, you can't patch it directly to version 1.5. First, 1.1, then 1.2... 1.5.

I don't have a licensed copy... I have a Russian version of "Chronicles," where everything is in Russian and there are additional dynamic video clips. There's also an original version where the clips are voiced in English, but the saves from "Chronicles" (even the additional clips!) are compatible. However, this version also can't be patched. (The version was taken from the "Complete Anthology of Heroes 6-in-1" collection.)

Well, to patch the game, there's only one way: you need a licensed copy.

Yes, but I don't buy games in specialty stores. There's a place in our city where they sell high-quality discs, and I'll also write to the website of the publishing company "Neogame," telling them to stop cutting games down to the point where they're unplayable and to release games in a normal format (I don't buy them in stores because you often find all sorts of junk, and besides, they've never had Heroes games).

Here's the essence of the bug. After capturing the last castle with Isabel and performing the ritual on her, a message appears indicating that the task is completed, but the mission doesn't end. The task next to the ritual has a checkmark, but all the heroes do not. Also, in this mission, I have three heroes, and after talking to Railag and Shadia, I can't play with them. I approached the castle with Isabel with all three heroes. I fought with Isabel using Fayedan because he has 5 points in luck and morale (Isabel's troops: 420 paladins, 53 archangels, 1000 swordsmen, 500 archers, my troops: 45 archangels, 73 paladins, 350 ghosts, 90 lynx, 54 death messengers, and 130 warlocks). I couldn't defeat her with Zehir; I only win with Fayedan. But then, the "mission completed" message doesn't appear. What's the problem? All the castles are mine, and there's no one else on the map. All three heroes are alive: Fayedan, Zehir, and Godric. :mad: :mad: :mad:

I have three heroes in this mission, and after talking to Raelag and Shadia, I can no longer play with them.

I had the same bug.
Before approaching Raelag, I dismissed all the secondary heroes. Only the three main heroes remained: a mage, an elf, and a knight.
Then I approached Raelag, and it worked: two heroes were added: Shadia and Raelag, whom I could now control.

However, I haven't completed the mission yet; I can't seem to defeat Isabel. Her army is too strong and grows quickly. I've fought with all the heroes, but none can cope. Paladins take out everyone very quickly. :mad:

My computer didn't take too long to process. I also completed the mission in about 3-5 hours, trying to develop the heroes as much as possible. As a result, Godric and Zephyr reached level 26, Faydaen reached level 28, and the strongest, charismatic former demon lord, Agrail, now a Warlock named Railag, reached level 30! His Meteor Shower dealt about 800 damage, and his Earthquake dealt over 1100:eek: :smile19: :smile15:!
