Oh, come on, let's put a skeleton on display and let them stare into the void.

For Necropolis, I focus on Zombies, Archliches, and Skeleton Archers, using everything else as cannon fodder! The real fun begins when you find an artifact that increases both the minimum and maximum damage by 1 and then level up Battle Fury, and the skeletons become absolute monsters!
I do the same. But this is only effective on large maps when there are many skeletons. However, there is a downside - most opponents in battles will try their best to kill the skeletons. As for cannon fodder, I wouldn't say that vampires are cannon fodder - they are very resilient creatures.

Well, it depends on which race you're playing against... Because you can't regenerate health against machines, golems, or even undead... which means vampires are easy prey against them.

You're saying mass slow is bad? But you don't want to use the Necromancer's ultimate ability? (It affects all enemies, reducing their morale by approximately -6 and their initiative by -40%).
You know, skeletons can easily have 10 HP instead of 6 (with Endurance + some artifact), and then you'll get tired of trying to take them down... And Liches will help :D

No matter what anyone says, in my opinion, Necromancers are the best.:p

Necromancers are definitely strong, but only because of the number of starting units. When playing Academy against Necropolis, by the end of the first month, I had 250 skeletons, while the mages only had 100 gremlins.

First, get that ultimate ability. Especially if you're playing online with someone. In a 1v1 game, it will take you a whole day to develop your hero. Plus, you need to get lucky with the regular abilities.

Hmm, are you not confusing anything?) Maybe by the end of the first week?)
250 skeletons by the end of the first month is not even a proper army; one magic attack and they're reduced to scraps, if anything remains at all.
100 gremlins are the same; if they only have the hero (a specialist in gremlins), only about 70 of them survive...

If you consider their quality and quantity, they are still among the strongest!

You're wrong, there are also many Gremlins at the beginning of the week, and they initially shoot, Gargoyles are also not weak in terms of defense! So, the question is debatable!:)

Don't forget that there are also Liches and other undead, and golems simply won't reach you!!! Fortress only has one decent unit, which are the Mages, I can't name anyone else! TITANS in the 5th game are very expensive and useless!!!

Titans become terminators when bulking up, but it's unrealistic to gain that much mass due to the high cost. I have a question: I've become interested in playing as Necropolis, which I haven't done before (neither in Heroes of Might and Magic III nor in Heroes of Might and Magic V)... and here's my question: Is it possible to rush with Necropolis? The map is "Land of Outcasts." Ideally, I'd like explanations against each faction, but the main focus is against Dungeon. Please provide an approximate build order and the most suitable hero, which skills he should learn at the beginning, what to focus on, etc. In general, tell me everything you can about rushing with Necropolis. And is Necropolis even designed for rushing? Thank you in advance.

Not useless at all, 7th-level archers? They hit very hard (especially in melee), and yes, they are expensive... That's true.:mad:

Yes, that's definitely true against them! (Yesterday's duel confirms it).

They're actually quite useful, archers of level 7? They hit very hard (especially in melee), and I won't argue about the fact that they're expensive... True.:mad:
They might not be bad archers, but blocking them (and even more so, killing them) is easy. The first time I saw a Titan in Heroes of Might and Magic V, I liked it purely for its appearance, but in practice, they're only good if you load them up with artifacts; otherwise, they're useless... And of course, they're expensive. Against this backdrop, the Ghost Dragons of the Necropolis look better.

Well, I made a slight mistake. Everyone makes mistakes.

Or maybe it's about the skill of using them???? It doesn't have to be a lot and powerful! It can be small but frequent!!!!! I'm talking about initiative!! Cast spells on the Titans, and that's it...
Although we are getting off topic....
In general, Necropolis units are the best... and if you're lucky, they can kill everyone... but these are just theories; it's better to try it in practice...

Well, let's not argue about the skill of playing Heroes, because I have 10 years of experience, and I think you have at least as much. And yet, it's easier to "produce," so to speak, Phantom Dragons, even if they are weaker, but numerical superiority is still superiority (again, in your words, you need to know how to use your troops). I also note that mages generally have a problem with resources, don't they? You need to consider a unit not only from the point of view of its strength, but also its practicality (the cost of building a structure, the cost of purchasing, the cost of upgrading, the speed of appearance, the usefulness coefficient in battle against natives/players/AI, and finally, rush =)).

Here, by the way, a Dragon Utopia can be easily defeated with just 20 Vampires and 450-500 Skeleton Archers, without any losses, respectively, for Vlad. And here I have a question, is it possible to defeat a Utopia with even fewer Undead units? Maybe someone has tried? Share your tactics, please =) Once again proving the "Superiority of the Undead" =)

I do the same. But this only works on large maps when there are many skeletons. However, there is a downside - most opponents in battles will try their best to kill the skeletons. As for meat - I wouldn't say that vampires are meat - they are very resilient creatures.
When playing as Necropolis, I choose Vlad, and on the first turn, I cast some kind of protection spell on the skeletons, and then I resurrect them in all subsequent turns. Of course, there are losses, but after the battle, they are almost always fully restored!
