Yes, the Mage Guild is not necessary. You can view the chronological order of the missions here. I recommend completing the campaigns in any order, but do so entirely – jumping between heroes is not interesting. Of course, the Necropolis army consists of undead creatures.

I started playing as Necropolis, and I have a question... how can I turn the living creatures I killed from the enemy into creatures for my own army? And is this even possible? If so, how?

Has anyone managed to defeat a large number of "STRONG AI" opponents at once in a battle, even at a normal difficulty level? Anyone? :) Smart AI? :) And try to say that the computer is stupid, and humans are smart! :)
I mean, when you give all opponents "strong AI" (let's say 5 or 7 of them). Giving "strong AI" to only one opponent is a joke; give it to everyone.

In Heroes 5, I could defeat them... and the question isn't whether the computer is stupid. If you analyze it, the computer is indeed dumb and doesn't have real intelligence; the intelligence is programmed, and as a rule, it's not yet possible to create perfect AI. Of course, in many ways, they surpass humans, but still, AI is a product of human creation... in the game, you can always easily defeat the AI because you have the ability to save. )) And if something goes wrong, you can load from a successful point and continue the game; otherwise :smile26: if you play without saving, that's a completely different story

There are no difficulty levels for "AI" (artificial intelligence) in Heroes 5.

Recruit, Warrior, and Veteran. So, there are.

Okay, I understand. Please answer my question regarding Necromancers. How can I turn the living creatures I kill from the enemy into creatures for my own army? And is this even possible? If so, how?

Thank you. I have a couple more questions.
1. What are the "Tears" and "Blood" paths, and can both paths be upgraded?
2. Are skill points only awarded upon reaching a certain level, or is there another way to earn them? It seems like you get a very limited set of skills from a large number of options. Even each spell requires skill points. It turns out that the hero is very poorly developed (((

No. These are just difficulty levels, where the initial resources and troops differ.
Then, in Heroes 6, what is the "AI" difficulty level? If, according to you, the difficulty levels in Heroes 6 are "easy," "normal," and "hard," then these are levels of artificial intelligence, right?:) No offense.

It's not just the initial conditions that change, but also the AI's behavior. This is a common principle for adjusting difficulty in the Heroes series.

What are the "Tears and Blood" paths, and can both paths be upgraded?

Each path provides two perks (active or passive abilities). You can only upgrade one path. Only the main hero can upgrade paths.

Are skill points only awarded upon reaching a certain level, or can they be earned in some other way?

Each level-up grants one skill point. This has always been the case; nothing new.
Now, you simply choose not from a pre-selected list, but from the entire list of available skills. The only thing is that they are divided into three categories based on usefulness (some are taken from the first level, others from the 5th, and the last from the 15th).

I have a lot of experience where one hero transfers about 22 skill points to another in one go. :)

Could you please elaborate on this?
1. Does the "training" skill need to be present on both heroes, or is it enough for only one of them to have it?
2. What does it mean that skill points are transferred? Does it mean that if one hero has 5 skill points and transfers them to another, they are left with 0?
3. Are skill points transferred only when the skill has not yet been learned, or does it not matter?

Each level increase gives one skill point. It was the same before, nothing new.

The new thing is that in Heroes of Might and Magic V, I could choose, for example, Dark Magic and learn a lot of spells, but here it turns out that one level is required for one spell.

Experience is passed on, not points!

Could you please elaborate on this point?
1. Should both heroes have the training skill, or is it sufficient for only one of them to have it?
2. What does it mean that skill points are transferred? If one hero has 5 skill points and transfers them to another, does the first hero end up with 0?
3. Are skill points only transferred when the skill has not yet been learned, or does it not matter?

First of all, experience is transferred.
Secondly, they are not transferred, but added. There is Hero A, who has 10,000 experience points (not skill points!) and Hero B, who has 1,000 experience points ("exp" hereafter).
Hero A has a skill that allows him to train Hero B.
Hero B does not necessarily need to have this skill. As a result of the training, Hero B's experience becomes 7500, i.e., 75% of Hero A's experience. It becomes that amount immediately, and is not added to what he already has! (it cannot be reduced).

The new thing is that in Heroes 5, I could choose, for example, dark magic and learn a lot of spells, but here it turns out that there is only one level for one spell.

Well, that's true :) Although there weren't that many spells there either

Well, at least you can skillfully play as a Mage, and for example, using hypnosis, you can defeat an opponent who is 5 times stronger than you ))) and Chaos magic at the beginning of the game (or rather, at the beginning of the map) is very helpful with a small army ))) in general, there are many possibilities... and it's more interesting )))
