Hey guys, can you tell me how to quickly split an army without using the HD mod? And how can I see the number of monsters in a lair, for example?

Hey everyone! Can someone explain why it's better to play online on difficulty level 160 instead of 200? Is it true that playing on 160 is actually harder?

What's the point of playing without the HD mod?

You need to go into it, decline the battle, and move away. It will say 20-49 or 50-99.

Guys! Can someone explain reasonably why it's better to play online on difficulty 160 instead of 200? Is it true that playing on 160 is more difficult?
It's not about easier or harder, but about the fact that on 200%, it heavily depends on who gets the treasure chest and gold nearby. Someone might buy several heroes in one day, while someone else might run around with one hero for several days.

1. How can you win with Necropolis in the new patch, considering the limitations on Vampires and the Necromancy enhancement? 2. What makes Soila so good in the Conflux map? 3. In the new patch, you can't dig for the Grail until the second month. Does this mean you won't be able to dig for it at all? Or can you find it and dig it up in the second month?

1. They are strong anyway, especially on XL+U maps.
2. The hero is good for rushing, especially on small maps.

Hello!
Guys, is there Heroes 3 for Mac?
It's hard to call it Heroes, but if you're interested, try http://download.vcmi.eu/vcmi-0.95.dmg

I understand that you need to install (unzip) it into the game folder (the usual Windows version of Heroes) and run the client. Figure out where to get it yourself.

Could you provide a more detailed answer to all three questions?)))

1. How can I win with Necropolis in the patch, considering the limitations on Vampires and Necromancy Enhancement?
2. What makes Solmyr so good after the Conflux?
3. In the patch, you can't dig for the Grail until the second month. Does this mean you won't be able to dig for it at all? Or can you find it and dig it up in the second month?

1. How to win with Necromancers with the patch, given the restrictions on Vampires and Necromancy Enhancement?
Don't play Necromancer. It's obvious. How? It's impossible to explain in a single word. You need to see how others do it. Then you'll understand. (Streams can help)
According to the HotA rules, you can't start with Galthar, and you can't take Isre or Vidomina with Expert Necromancy until all the skills are maxed out. For example, start with Clavius (or Tanta, depending on your mood). On the first day, it's best to build a Skeleton Converter, and convert everything from another hero into skeletons. And carefully start playing as a Necromancer. Your goal is to get Expert Necromancy as quickly as possible. I even give up Earth magic, and Expert Necromancy will be available at level 5, or even level 3. And take Logha if you get the chance.
Then carefully accumulate bones. It's difficult to build a stack at first, but then everything goes well.

2. Why is Soyla so good for Conflux?
Let's call her Ziel? She's a specialist in ranged attacks. If there are very early encounters, you can solve the final battle purely with ranged attacks. She has decent ranged attack. That's what makes her good.
Taking her as a main hero on large maps is a risky undertaking.

3. The patch prevents digging up the Grail until the second month, does this mean that digging is impossible at all? Or can you find it and dig it up in the second month?
I don't know about the patch, I haven't tried it. The Grail is usually not something I'm interested in. But I think you can dig it up in the second month. But you can check that yourself. (Try digging after day 221).
Or someone else who knows will respond.

Thank you! This answer opened my eyes a bit, and I even checked the Grail – it doesn’t generate resources until the second month with the patch!)

Question about diplomacy! It is forbidden to develop it to the expert level in online games, but the rules with the patch don’t mention anything about it... that is, the patch doesn’t block developing it to the expert level... How to play correctly without it? And it turns out that you can’t check later – whether someone has used it or not?

You can level up diplomacy, but you cannot recruit monsters. Diplomacy is also used for paying a ransom.

Hello everyone. I have a question regarding the streams. Lately, whenever I visit the Tvaryny website (http://homm.tv/), there are always the same four streams listed as active. However, they are not actually active, and the list doesn't update. Is this a problem with my browser, or is it happening to everyone?
If it's happening to everyone, are there any other places to find a list of active streams for this community besides the announcements thread?

There are problems with the website right now. This affects everyone.

Keep an eye on the first and last pages of this thread: /topic/9287/

On the first page, if you wait a bit for it to load, it shows whether the stream is online or offline. Posts 3, 4, and 5 are for "monitoring broadcasts."

While playing online, I noticed an opponent approaching a building and then running away. I asked him why he didn't attack, and he said it was too difficult. Then, on the save file, I saw him standing right next to the building, which shouldn't be possible because a monster would have attacked. What is this? I know you can set up auto-battle and manually replay, but you can't refuse a battle. Does anyone know what's going on?
