I play with all factions, choosing them randomly; they are all good.

I wouldn't say that... for some maps, some cities are not suitable...

Well, generally speaking, that's how it is, but all of this is taken into account in the third game. I never complained about having an Elven town amidst lava.

Interesting name for the Tower - "Winter Castle" ;)
The combination of the Tower town and the Swamp is very interesting... usually, if people play as the Tower, they can't stand the Swamp...:o
No, quite the opposite - those who play as the Tower often like the Swamp. In both cases, a defensive strategy works (Although the castles are undoubtedly quite different...) But I like both.

I don't know, my very first city was Castle, because I started playing with Era of Reckoning, and the funny thing is, my cousin taught me how to play. I played very badly, copying his tactics and style, but after about a year, I "dominated" everyone I knew who played Heroes... Anyway, I got carried away. After that, I really liked Tower, with Solmyr, and I lost all the maps against it... then I really liked Dungeon with Gurak (from Conquest of Evil :)), but I never really considered Stronghold and Swamp as cities; I couldn't even win a single game. Then I met a friend, Adelofofag (he signed up for the tournament here; he'll definitely appear on the forum when he's done with his exams), and he played Stronghold very well; he kind of opened up the Stronghold city for me!!! Then, at university, I met a guy who played Swamp incredibly well, and he had his own tactics, very different from others... after that, I got into Swamp, and I've always played Necropolis quite well, but then I got into Armageddon's Blade, and since then, I've been playing and consider it the strongest city... about Rampart, I can say that I play it well, but I've never been particularly fond of it, except a couple of times when I learned about Jhelu....
...Years have passed, and now when people ask me: "What's your favorite city?" I answer ALL!!!

Yeah... The Tower is a really great Castle, although it's the most expensive... But in terms of power, it's my favorite, plus they have 3 archers... and one is even level 7... No, nothing beats Cold and Titans... Except maybe Azure Dragons :-)

I played very badly, I copied his tactics and playing style, but after about a year, I "crushed" everyone who played Heroes among my acquaintances... So, I got carried away, but anyway, then I really liked Tower, with Solmyr, I lost all the maps to it... then I really liked Dungeon with Gurrar (Castle of Darkness :)), and at the same time, I didn't really consider Stronghold and Swamp as cities, I couldn't even win once. Then I met a friend, Adelofofag (he signed up for the tournament here, he will definitely appear on the forum when he finishes his session), he played very well with Stronghold, he kind of opened the Stronghold city for me!!! Then, at the institute, I met a guy who played incredibly well with Swamp, and he had his own tactics, very different from others... after that, I got carried away with Swamp, I always played Necropolis quite well, and then I got into Conflux, since then I have been playing and I consider it the strongest city... about Rampart I will say that I play it quite well, but I never "burned" for it, only a couple of times when I learned about Jhelu....

Well done! Tarnum, you're one of us, you've tried everything!:)

Necromancers... even against a Conflux, they can go with skeletons and tear it apart.

I usually play as Necromancers. Free skeletons are a nice bonus.))))

Well, going on an assault with only skeletons... :D
And besides, there are some good alternatives to Necropolis units in the Conflux.
Phoenix is better than Bone Dragon and Ghost Dragon.
Ice Elemental is better than Ghost.
Air Elemental is better than Zombie (imo!:D)
And magical elementals are still a good alternative to Black Knight.

And besides, there are some good alternatives to Necropolis units in the combined factions.
Phoenix is better than Bone Dragon and Wraith.
Ice Elemental is better than Wraith.
Air Elemental is better than Zombie (in my opinion!:D)
And Magic Elementals are still a good alternative to Black Knight.


Happiness isn't just about skeletons, but about Knights and Liches.:D

All these units are definitely better than their Necropolis counterparts...
Phoenixes are the fastest units in the game... plus their weekly growth rate...
Ice and Air Elementals shoot...
I would still question the Magic Elementals - in all respects, they are weaker than Death Knights, and they cannot be restored.

But... in all the time I've played, I've never built Wraiths, and Zombies - only unupgraded ones, for further construction... and I've never taken them into my army - they just get in the way... it's better to fill the slots with various other cheap units from the joined factions, and then pass them through the Transmuter... (also, it's worth looking in the tavern - sometimes a hero with 35-40 weak units, but not Necropolis, is also a good buy and then pass them through the Transmuter)

But in general... yes, happiness isn't just about skeletons, but about their quantity... )))

Magic elementals are useful when you need to divert attention. Especially when defending. They are durable enough to withstand attacks, and if they do strike back, you'll be left wondering, "Who exactly did it hit?" Fairies are also useful; their growth rate is very high, and you can even match them in numbers against skeletons, and they easily defeat them. The skeletons can't retaliate. Ice and air elementals are self-explanatory... Archers are always needed, and these ones don't have a penalty in melee combat. Fight – or don't! Fire elementals are, in my opinion, the perfect balance of strength and speed. They can retreat and attack – everything a "core" unit needs is there. Earth elementals are tanks. Real tanks. Slow, stubborn, just like ents! They are very useful in defense. I already talked about magic elementals. And then there are phoenixes! With their growth rate and reincarnation, they can only do great things! Looking at it from a global perspective, they are even better than Chaos Dragons. All of the above is just my opinion. I can advertise any city you want

Hmm... fairies can't be pitted against skeletons... you can't raise 200-300 fairies in a week...
Ice and Thunder... yes, ranged attacks are important... but only when they can't be reached in the first turn... (mass acceleration, and even vampires can reach them)
Fire and Earth... as far as I remember, these warriors have always been the weak point of the Conflux...
Magical... yes, they attack in all directions without retaliation... but this can be "cleverly" bypassed... a big minus - they cannot be resurrected
Phoenixes... yes, they regenerate after death... the question is, how many? 3-4?)))

A big advantage of the Conflux against Necromancers is the inability of vampires to drain life from 5 units...

I agree about the Earth elementals. But Ice and Wind elementals are awesome!
The damage of Air elementals is 2-8! Wow, even more than Ice elementals. If they have a blessing, that's great.

it all depends on the player's tactics and strategy...

because you can also "cleverly" avoid the negative effect of not drawing life from the Conflux...
