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

I'm not providing a link because I don't know if the Heroesworld admins allow it.

Only with the author FizMiG's permission.

Only with the author's permission from PhysMig.

The resource administrator can allow or prohibit providing the link. If the author of PhysMig and the administrator of HeroesWorld are the same person, then yes. But if the author of PhysMig is not the administrator of HeroesWorld, how can he allow me to provide a link here?

Exactly, it’s high time to create a wiki version.

The administration, represented by me, does not object. However, the author may, for various reasons, object, although I think that if the authorship is indicated, there should be no problems.

Has anyone tried to contact AmberSoler? What happened to his website (or, God forbid, to him)? He hasn't been active, and hasn't posted anything in the guide-related threads on this and other sites.

Can anyone tell me, in the Heroes section of the game guide, for Josephine, one of the starting stacks lists 2 to 2 Stone Golems. For all other heroes, any stack of Golems is listed as 2 to 3. Is this a typo?

No, everything is correct.

Hello everyone! Thank you for your support and kind words. Regarding all questions that may arise, I would like to comment on the following: 1). Due to the extremely unreliable service provided by the company Ucoz (after the acquisition of "the people"), the website is currently not being maintained. 2). To date, the FizMiG reference guide has been revised (in terms of correcting minor inaccuracies, calibrating some articles to provide a more complete presentation of information, and adding new articles). S.Drake (df2.ru) carried out extensive work on optimization and agreed to administer the VKontakte group dedicated to the reference guide (as a co-author). I am confident that interactive communication between users will give the project a new lease on life. The group is already active and gradually gaining momentum - welcome! http://vk.com/fizmig As a result, we decided to continue the project together, with the starting index being FizMiG 2.0.

Could you share a link to the group?

I'm slowly creating an online version of FizMig.
For now, there isn't much content, as I don't have a lot of time for it.
I'm not providing a link because I don't know if the Heroesworld admins allow it.
When the website is complete, I'll remove the orange text from the main page. This will mean that I've moved all the information from FizMig 1.6 to the website.
This won't happen very quickly. The amount of content is quite large.

If it's not too much trouble, could you tell me more about your idea? Because a fairly detailed online version has been available on HeroesPortal for a long time (in the "Library" section).

The author of the FizMig guide is AmberSoler.
His email address can be found on the first page of the guide.

Please use this address for quick communication - my nickname at @inbox.ru

I think the best thing would be to create a corresponding section in the wiki, i.e., copy all of FizMig there, and then it can be edited, clarified, etc., in short, make it public domain and allow for collaborative editing. So, if its author, AmberSoler, is listening, please share your opinion on this.

I agree in principle. That would be a great idea, and five years ago, I tried to promote it. But, unfortunately, according to the rules at the time, it turned out to be unfeasible. FizMiG is too specialized and doesn't have references to a "primary source," so the moderators didn't allow the idea to go forward. I don't think anything has changed today... As an option, you can create a separate project on the wiki engine, but it needs to be administered on a separately created resource.

the "Neutrals" section of the game mechanics, specifically "Distribution of troops within stacks during combat,"
does anyone have a table in Excel format similar to that, but adapted for, say, fake units (where a creature's variable is divided by a fake unit variable) to make calculations easier? And also, is there a dedicated thread where experienced players can answer questions?

to calculate how many stacks the AI will share, to plan the battle before attacking, and Excel is needed so that I don't have to enter the data manually – maybe someone already has this?
