I learned a lot about how to defeat Necropolis with Conflux, but I didn't see anything about the opposite. Maybe someone can tell me.

Playing Necropolis against Conflux can be quite challenging. But it's still quite possible. First, prepare your "meat" (accumulate skeletons); you'll need a lot of them. Protect your liches and death knights; they will be your main force. Vampires are less important; they don't resurrect into elementals (although they can be used effectively against phoenixes). You need to build up your magic to level three as quickly as possible (to raise undead!) and get earth magic. After that, you need to hurry. Use vampires to fight phoenixes, and either vampires or liches to fight magical elementals. Then, adapt to the situation. The downsides of Conflux are that elementals cannot be resurrected, your own spells don't affect magical elementals, and ice elementals are large and difficult to protect. You need to take advantage of this.

Playing against the Conflux is very difficult with any Castle, especially on the highest difficulty level.:mad:
If you gather a lot of zombies and skeletons, and many vampire lords, a few bone dragons, and death knights, you can be successful. It's advisable not to destroy fairies so that vampires can regenerate if they take a lot of damage. You can also destroy them with magic; each elemental can be hit twice with only one type of magic, as they are well-protected against radiant magic. For example: An electric elemental can be easily damaged with an ice bolt.:smile

If you are playing on the highest difficulty, the more gold and resources on the map, the better.

Of course, I will!
In principle, nothing complicated, just the tactics are different (in some aspects):
1. It is preferable to develop a Necromancer-Sorcerer.
2. It is desirable to take a combination of Earth + Fire, or Earth + Air skills (the rest, as you like).
3. Useful magic (mass curse, slow; raise dead; don't forget to use elemental vulnerability).

Depending on the size of the map and personal preferences, there are two options:
1. If the map is small, or you like blitzkrieg, then don't build the 7th-level structure (it's a waste of money), and go and attack, gathering all your troops:
Levels: 1st, 5th, 6th – mandatory.
4th – optional
3rd and 2nd – if you have enough resources.
If Conflux built Phoenixes, it means they don't have money (or an army).
If they didn't build them, it will be more difficult, but you can fight for the first move.

2. If the map is large, then the tactics are the same as against other factions.
The longer you delay the encounter, the more skeletons there will be!!!
And Conflux is more expensive in terms of resources!!!
The only problem is that the opponent gets the first move!!!

P.S. This message does not take into account... or if I have... or...
In short, for a standard situation, and with relatively equal levels of opponents.

It is preferable to level up a Necromancer-Sorceress.

We always used that strategy. ;)

Don't build a 7th-level structure (it's a waste of money).

Yeah. It's weak for Necropolis.

If Conflux built Phoenixes, it means they don't have money (or an army).

And they have nothing to hire creatures with? What if they also capture mines?

Well, I wouldn't say it's not complicated. Taking the Conflux in Heroes 3 is probably the most difficult thing that can happen on the game map.

2. It is desirable to take a combination of earth + fire, or earth + air skills (the rest is up to personal preference).

Don't forget that a hero from the Conflux can upgrade all magic skills.

Levels: 1st, 5th, 6th – mandatory.
4th – optional
3rd and 2nd – to be built if there's enough money
If the Conflux has built Phoenixes, it means it doesn't have money (or an army)
If it hasn't built them, it will be more difficult, but you can fight for the first move.

Just "haha," if you've built the 6th level, then be sure that the Conflux already has Phoenixes. And regarding the fact that if it has built Phoenixes, it doesn't have money, do you even remember that Phoenixes cost 1500? So, this point is flawed.

Well, there's no argument there, but don't forget that the longer you wait, the more skeletons you have, and the more skills the opponent has. Even if you manage to gather 3000 skeletons, the opponent will have three times more skills.

Well, I don't know about the others, but as a fan of playing as the Conflux, I'll call you an amateur.

The tactics are completely different; I'll write about it tomorrow

Conflux is completely unnecessary and too powerful compared to the other factions! It has no place in Heroes! Down with the Elementals!

Well, saying that Conflux is the strongest city might be an overstatement, but it's definitely not weak, and not every faction can defeat it. Elements rely on numbers and magic. In my opinion, Inferno is the best counter against Elements because Archdevils and Efreet Sultans have high initiative and therefore attack first. And despite their strong magic, the heroes in Conflux are very weak warriors (unless they have powerful artifacts). This is where you can gain an advantage, especially if you upgrade the healing spell for everyone, and then there will be no problems!

I once played as Necropolis against Conflux and Tower. Solmyr visited Conflux and went straight to my castle.

Yesterday, I started playing with a friend. I chose Necropolis, and he chose Academy. We played until the 3rd month – I have 3,000 skeletons, but he has 40 Phoenixes. Our heroes are roughly equal. Do I have a chance?

3000 skeletons will destroy 40 phoenixes without a chance.

Besides Phoenixes and skeletons, is there anything else? Or is that it?

Necropolis has an advantage over other factions: Greymalkin Vampires. By the second week, you can easily conquer any Fortress or Hive (12 Vampires and a little bit of meat are enough to break even the most heavily defended Fortress), and having Angels by the second week means you can accomplish a lot.

This isn't a clear advantage...
