Posts from Which faction do you like the most in Heroes of Might and Magic IV?Auto-translated
It's quite interesting here. I even understood some words, like "CD," "ifrit," "gnome," "golem"... Are "nightmares" those creatures that look like horses with a gorgon's gaze? :o And can't you do what you could in Heroes of Might and Magic III, where you level up your main hero and then ride a dragon/ifrit, while letting the gnomes be fodder for the horse? :o
Wouldn't it be possible to do something like in Heroes of Might and Magic III, where you could level up the main hero and have them ride a dragon/efreet, while sending the dwarves to a weaker hero? :o
It's possible... but it has no effect. Because the troops have their own movement points ;) So, the chain of transferring troops doesn't work in Heroes of Might and Magic IV... :cool:

Mounts – yes, but the gaze works differently. It removes a unit from battle for 2 rounds. As for speeding up the game in Heroes 3, I hope it never happens... Currently, the hero's speed depends on the speed of the troops.

It depends on the map. In most cases, I rarely take mines. Except for gold mines, of course. :) In theory, it's just an exchange of troops, because you have about 100 neutral units against you, and you have roughly the same number. Haven, Order, and Might have fewer losses, but that doesn't really matter, because you're just using level 1 units as cannon fodder anyway. Except in rare cases. For example, on Tron, it's better to save archers, even if they're just orcs.

On Tron, Orcs and Centaurs are very strong. That's why I like Barbarians with Chaos there.
Well, Chaos depends heavily on the setup. Thieves + Trolls with Minotaurs is a difficult setup to play. And there won't be enough Orcs without additional generation. By the way, that's when I was first horrified to learn that Trolls don't regenerate to full health, but only to 50 HP.

Firstly, the guardian is obtained by combining: nature magic + tactics. Nature Magic + Scouting = Bard (max luck). In general, playing with a single hero has long been proven to be ineffective. Elves don't rule at all - the damage is minimal, even with accuracy.

sorry, I misspoke, I got carried away, but with only one hero, it's obviously an outdated option; I meant at least 2. It's the same as going without a potion of immortality:smile01:
Added 8 minutes later and besides, what do you suggest? Building tigers is just extra cannon fodder; they're not effective. They're one of the most useless units among the two. And if you find the Bow of the Elven King on a large map, and the Strength of Dragons on the Elves, then everything will change!
and in general, what do you suggest? Building tigers is just extra cannon fodder; they aren't effective. They are one of the most useless units among the two. And if you find the Bow of the Elven King on a large map, and also have Dragon Strength on the Elves, then they will become unbeatable!
Tigers are much better than Elves. I only don't build them when I already have a Ranger guild in the castle – then I don't want to waste a day building an additional structure for the tigers (it seems to be called a Sacred Grove). On the map at the beginning of the game, tigers are much more useful than Elves: high speed + first strike and decent damage. With magic support (most often Giant Strength + Summon Leprechauns (cheap luck)), you can break through and rob a lot with a pair of tigers and wolves. 6-10 tigers feel quite confident in battle, and by the time they lose their effectiveness, Phoenixes will already be built. Elves, on the other hand, need much more, at least 20, and Quicksand is very useful (although the Elves have it, but the portal is only placed after building a level 3 structure). The Bow of the Elven King is a myth for standard Multiplayer maps (on which people play online). I've only seen it on one...

First of all, no need to use all caps...
Now, let's get to the point.
LET'S SAY YOU'RE BUILDING A TIGER ARMY. HOW WILL YOU FIGHT AGAINST DEATH? TELL ME.
Heroes + phoenixes – that's all you need. Vampires won't reach the elves unless they stand in the center of the formation or behind everyone else; otherwise, they'll be easily blocked. Also, weight hasn't been canceled; if there's an obstacle in the way, the damage is reduced to 1/4 per shot, which is like a drop in the ocean for vampires. Rather, elves are cannon fodder for vampires.
AND THEN, ELEMENTALS WITHOUT PENALTY CAN DESTROY HALF OF THE VAMPIRE ARMY OR THE DRAGON OR DEVIL ARMY.
Well, you can damage vampires with elementals, but not much more. It takes 5 elementals to kill 1 vampire. That is, to achieve a significant number like 10 vampires, you need 50 elementals! Elementals can't do much against bone dragons (they have 275 HP), and you can't even reach devils. By the way, those same devils easily block your favorite elves, and dragons are even less affected due to their doubled defense against ranged attacks.
ALL OTHER RACES, EXCEPT FOR DEATH AND NATURE, ARE GENERALLY NOT WORTH IT.
Nature is certainly strong, but not in the way you're saying. Its strength lies in speed, in my opinion. The phoenix is probably the fastest monster in the game, and it has good abilities. You should use this to your advantage, instead of dragging around all sorts of elves.

LET'S NOT BUILD BALLISTAS AND MONKS FOR THE HUMANS, BUT RATHER CYCLOPS FOR STRENGTH, TITANS FOR ORDER, AND MEDUSAS FOR CHAOS. BUT WHY? THEY'LL JUST GET BLOCKED ANYWAY... I REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND YOU.
You really don't understand... We're talking about the fact that level 2 monsters are generally useless in the endgame, except on specific maps. Any of them. Even level 3 isn't always useful. Level 2 is used for clearing the map in the early game (week 1). Gathering resources, breaking through oracles, clearing some paths, acquiring some artifacts, defending mines – that's what level 2 monsters are for. After building level 4, you don't need to buy level 2 monsters anymore.
IT'S NOT ABOUT HAVING A LOT OF UNITS, IT'S ABOUT HIM HAVING THEM!
Are you suggesting putting units in a square formation against an opponent with Phoenixes? O_O Practice a little more.
WITH PHOENIXES AND ELVES, YOU'RE ALREADY KILLING THE HERO.
How can you kill a hero with elves? If he's standing in the front ranks, he definitely has at least 70 defense, and often even 100! And if the Nature army doesn't have a Life Mage, then the Phoenixes will either be completely disabled from the battle with Terror, or they'll be slowed down, sealed, and a Vampire will be cast on them so they don't resurrect.
REGARDING THE WATER ELEMENTALS - DON'T FORGET THAT DEFENSE ISN'T TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT, AND 275 HP DRAGONS DEALING 10-15 DAMAGE PER SHOT IS REALLY BAD FOR THEM!!!
How many Water Elementals do you need to kill at least 3 dragons per shot? 275*3=855 HP - so you need 55 Water Elementals. And even then, they'll quickly recover under the Vampire's touch, at the expense of your elves. By the way, it will be difficult for the Phoenixes against them in this case. And you want to take down 10-15 dragons! O_o You need 184 Water Elementals for 10 dragons! Where are you going to get that many?...
