With proper use, Hydras can be much more dangerous than Dragons, and they are also cheap and, with a bit of luck, can be built in the first week!

At most, in the second week! But with a Castle and decent growth. ;)

well... Phoenixes have better growth rates :-)

I don't like Conflux... I don't know why, I just don't like it. And I don't really like Elves either. Warlocks, now they're powerful!

Sorceresses, yes. But there are no Sorceresses in the swamp!

It just felt unfair that they nerfed the swamp.:rolleyes:

and what does resentment for the Swamp have to do with it? The Swamp is objectively the weakest faction! I also find the Guild of Mages at level 4 annoying!

No, they only have a maximum of level 3. But they're still cool creatures, especially the upgraded Gorgons.

3? Not 3 for the Barbarians? I don't remember... I think it's 4... The little creatures are cool, but they're already very weak!

Barbarians also have 3. Humans have 4.

Yes, I remember the Humans. I don't understand how such a weak Castle, which doesn't have any significant advantages, could also have its Magic Guild limited! It's nonsense!

I just felt bad for the Swamp faction.:rolleyes:

Whether it's a reason to feel bad or not, it's true! The Castle isn't a strong faction; it's moderately expensive and doesn't have any clear advantages (its focus on defense is very weak). I think many would agree that it's one of the weakest factions in Heroes of Might and Magic III.

I completely agree, and so does Inferno!

You know, I disagree. In skilled hands and with the right tactics, you can achieve a lot even with the swamp, but you have to be an Expert.....
.... I said that I love playing as the swamp... let me explain.... it became very easy for me to play when you choose a strong city (Castle, Tower, Conflux, Dungeon, Rampart), then playing is easy; but when you get into a city where the units themselves are very interesting. On one hand they are weak, on the other they are strong, so you apply tactics and logic. The only things the units in this city lack:
1) Either +30% health
2) Or speed of at least 17 for one unit -----> then it would be even more interesting....
.... although we've drifted from the topic ... the units here are weaker, or rather, they don't have enough of a distinction for the city to be strong!

I agree with Uther 100%! Swamp and Inferno are weak! But Inferno is a little stronger!

I absolutely agree! It's true that the Swamp faction is missing something!
