Greetings to all fans of the Heroes of Might & Magic III universe!

I would like to invite you to participate in a project dedicated to creating a reference guide for HoMM III.

The topic itself is not new. There are many individual resources dedicated to describing the physics of the Heroes world, but despite all efforts, it is extremely difficult to find an information source that can be unequivocally classified as a reference guide.

This work does not claim to be original and is the result of compiling various official (Player's Manual) and unofficial (forums and websites) sources dedicated to describing the internal world of the game.

The file in Excel and PDF formats can be found at the following link:
http://vk.com/fizmig

At the moment, the work on the project is not yet fully completed, if it is even possible to complete it... :) Therefore, I would be grateful if anyone would like to participate in it and share their opinions, knowledge, and advice. An updated version of the document will be posted at the specified address for all those who wish. A link to the author will definitely be included. :)

Not all the information provided in this reference guide can be considered official, because it contains observations and assessments of players who wished to share their opinions about the features of the game. But, nevertheless, in general, it достаточно realistically reflects the physics of the Heroes world and will undoubtedly be useful to any beginner.

Given the above, any comments, clarifications, and explanations are welcome. Any suggestions regarding a more optimal form of presenting the information provided will also be valuable.

Sincerely,
AmberSoler

If the battle takes place on magical fields, clouds, or other special landscapes that offer an expert level of magic, then all corresponding spells are cast by the Fairy Dragon at an expert level of magic.

Only on magical plains. The other expert-level elemental terrains only affect the hero's spellcasting, but not the stacks (although when the AI calculates the value of spellcasting, it considers that they also affect the stacks).

Today, I noticed that when I went to the website http://homm3world.narod.ru/index.html, the page no longer exists! :(

So, did Ambersöhler just abandon it?

I tried using the "Veil of Life" spell. The description says that each turn, it fully regenerates the unit's health. But that's not true; it regenerates no more than 50 HP per turn. Also, a different description needs to be created for the "Golden Bow." The description says there is no penalty for melee combat for archers. The "no penalty" applies to units like the Titan and the Cyclops, which deal full damage instead of half damage. Here, units can shoot from melee range.

This is a vial, not a veil (and it was already mentioned in the thread, but the author was very slow to update the topic).

Guys, the guide needs to be updated urgently! So many errors have been found, and there's a lot of new information. If the author can't or doesn't want to work on it, they should allow someone from their circle to take responsibility for updating it. I suggest the author make Sav a co-author or someone else who has the experience/desire/time. How can we contact the author?

The manual was created by FizMig - AmberSoler.

You can find his email address on the first page of the manual.

I personally think that the best solution would be to create a corresponding section in the wiki, i.e., copy all the information from the guide there, and then it can be edited, clarified, etc., in short, make it public and allow for collaborative editing. So, if the author – AmberSoler – is listening, please share your opinion on this.

Wikipedia has quite strict criteria for selecting information. Therefore, at best, you can only provide a link to Physmig in Wikipedia (which would be quite important).

Therefore, in Wikipedia, you can at least provide a link to Physmig (which would be quite important).

Actually, I was thinking about this, but it's just an example. You can use any free service, such as GoogleDocs, GitHub, etc.
As for the link, it's already there.

Yes, the website on Narod.ru stopped existing for some reason, and not that long ago. I'm slowly creating an online version of Physmig.
For now, there isn't much content, as I don't have a lot of time for it. The site is already indexed in Yandex and Google. The site is called "Physmig Online."
I'm not providing a link because I don't know if the Heroesworld admins allow it.
When the site is fully populated, I'll remove the orange text from the main page. This will indicate that I've transferred all the information from Physmig 1.6 to the site.
This won't happen very quickly. The amount of content is quite large.
