Yes, the new skeletons look great, and the banshees look pretty good too! Vampires are always cool, but I prefer the old ones with the retaliate ability!

Why are Lords so scary? Their initiative isn't that high! New units deal great damage, dragons are good, new liches are effective against neutrals, especially if the Necromancer hasn't taken summoning magic! Spirits are good against armies of Mages and Elves!

However, I don't think Necropolis is a weak faction.
Yes, that's true, but I would still like to see black knights. I think there was even a mod for that. Is there a similar mod for the Stronghold?

I think the alt-upgrade for specters is very useless – stealing ammunition, how original...

High liches are the best! The tormentors go – they die, they are revived; the cultists die – they are revived... :smile54: :smile14: :smile28:

Yes, there is, but I seem to have misplaced it... I'll find it and send it to you...
By the way, I noticed that the "Deadly Strike" ability didn't work immediately (or maybe it's just my impression). In this regard, I have a question: should it be accompanied by any visual effects?

1. Bone Archers (in my opinion, the Castle needs 2 Archers; if you take Warriors instead)
2. Plague Zombies (the weakening effect works better than the Aura of Death)
3. Spirits...or Ghosts (depends on the situation)
4. Greater Vampires (due to the Retaliation ability, which changes a lot)
5. Archliches (Cloud of Poison, and the hero revives them)
6. Banshees...or Messengers (still haven't fully decided)
7. Astral Dragon (Grief + Banshee's Wail + artifacts that reduce enemy luck and resistance + sometimes a Howl of Terror = the enemy stands there and waits to be killed)
P.S.: How do you steal arrows with Ghosts? It says it's an activated ability, but nothing happens, either when near the enemy or when attacking them.

This thread isn't a duplicate... Because here we discuss the differences and the principle of choosing one of the upgrades. And in that thread, it would be off-topic because it should only discuss the alt-upgrade... I have the same heroes as you... I'm playing the campaign now. The vampire alt-upgrade is great. It applies stun after 3 attacks (1k7 is nonsense, that can't happen), and it's also a great blocker against ranged units (NEUTRAL), so I wouldn't put them in the front against another player... If I really have to, I'll pair them with specters... They remove retaliation. The vampires take care of the rest.
Let's be reasonable; diverting two valuable units to deal with one stack isn't very efficient. I stick to the tactic of attacking with 7th-level vampires and ranged units. The vampires should be self-sufficient. That's their strength. And it's better to use specters against some spellcasting units, so they can drain mana and resurrect themselves.

I agree with Cheri@ about the Spectre! I remember playing against someone here, and they took Spectre from the Haven faction – a secret Spectre (so that the Seraphs could cast Divine Retribution twice). And in battle, the Spectre immediately went to the Seraphs, and that was it! And they also stole mana from them.

1. Definitely new ones. They protect against ranged attacks and are stronger themselves, and they deal more damage to archers.
2. New ones. More HP... but why another zombie?
3. A rare ghost is unlikely to reach the casters of a cautious opponent in battle, so the new upgrade increases HP.
4. I never build Vampires because of the constant shortage of iron. There's always a dilemma: either build Vampires or Undead, either Vampires or a Castle, either Vampires or Dragons, either Vampires or a Guild of Mages... and the choice is always not in favor of the former, as they are too weak in Heroes 5.
5. While fighting neutrals, it's better to use those that resurrect in the early stages – they greatly increase the survivability of creatures and make the game easier. For the final stages, it's better to use Cloud, either 1 - many creatures and Cloud will always work, or 2 - 300-400 points of resurrection for the final stage is nothing, you only reduce the stack's HP by -20%, but you restore it.
6. If you don't expect to encounter a Phoenix, then the new upgrade is due to the increased HP.
7. I haven't seen any advantages of the new dragons.

I never thought anyone wouldn't build Vampires... :eek: In my opinion, this is the most powerful undead stack, and a real killer with double vampirism=));)
Honestly, this is the first time I've seen someone put them down... read the thread about Vampires, maybe it will change your mind=))

But the old ones recover mana faster; although the new ones seem to have more hit points...

Yes, I had it, but I seem to have misplaced it... I'll find it and post it...
By the way, I don't remember if the "Deadly Strike" ability worked right away (or maybe it's just my impression). This leads to a question: should it have any visual effects?
O God of Earth and Altar,
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not thy thunder from us,
Take away our pride.
G.K. Chesterton: English Hymnal
