Heroes 6 Secrets. Bored Units. Part 2. Free Tribes.
We continue exploring the Easter eggs hidden in the game by the developers. In the previous article, we talked about what the creatures of the Necropolis get up to when left unsupervised by the player. The theme of the second article will be the Free Tribes and the tricks of their inhabitants.
Goblin Hunter: "Where's the damn boomerang?"
Despite its absurdity, the boomerang is an ancient weapon of the indigenous people of the Australian continent, and as years of practice have shown—quite an effective one. The Goblins, who are likely kept in the Free Tribes just for a laugh, have successfully mastered this strange weapon, accurately hitting targets on the other side of the field. To keep in shape, these small, big-eared guys practice by throwing the boomerang as far as possible while out of combat. Sometimes they succeed too well—the boomerang flies away for a long time, and just as the goblin begins to peer into the distance, the weapon suddenly returns right into the owner's head.
Crusher: "And the circus has left town again..."
What is the life of an Orc? War, war, and more war! And sometimes they want entertainment other than bowling with the heads of their opponents. For example, going to the circus to see acrobats, equilibrists, clowns, and other amusing folk. But unfortunately, war does not wait, and all the clowns were long ago turned into canned food. To entertain themselves somehow, the Crushers have learned a few funny tricks. If the enemy has dozed off and is in no hurry to attack, the Orc will carefully place an axe on his nose (with the poll, naturally) and balance it for a while.
Fury: "A chicken is not a bird"
Oh, how much suffering has been and continues to be brought by vile bird-women with their unanswered attacks. Ever since the third installment, these creatures cross the entire field in one swoop, hit weakly protected units, and return to their spot.
Harpies also found their place in mythology; however, scientists, historians, philosophers, philologists, and other folklore-studying creatures cannot agree on a single opinion: woman or bird? In some places, harpies are depicted as quite attractive ladies with wings and claws; in others, as horrific monsters that make one nauseous even in sleep. Ubisoft expressed its opinion quite accurately in its Easter egg. When a Harpy gets bored, she begins to flap her wings like a chicken and peck at imaginary grain.
War Centaur: "A horse's profession"
Known since ancient mythology, Centaurs have always been depicted as first-class archers. Perhaps because the image of the centaur is most likely a reflection of nomadic tribes. After all, no one could compare with steppe warriors in horse management, and the accuracy with which they hit targets with a bow while galloping was phenomenal. Well, setting history aside, the Centaurs, who entered the Heroes series long ago, have now become formidable archers with many advantages over their rivals. A horse with a human torso or a human with a horse's backside? Who can tell... however, the presence of a human essence in a Centaur cannot be denied: during "idle" time, this four-legged warrior begins to play his bow like a violin. Or perhaps horses just like music?
Panther Warrior: "Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee"
This motto was chosen for himself by the famous Muhammad Ali, who changed views on world boxing. By emphasizing not only a boxer's endurance, power, and accuracy of strikes, but also footwork, he overcame many opponents.
Panther Warriors, who prefer honest hand-to-hand combat against several opponents at once, also try to imitate Ali. When they get bored, they "warm up" by jumping from foot to foot and shaking their hands with huge brass knuckles. Although, to be honest, they make a better sturdy Mike Tyson than a nimble and fast Muhammad.
Dreamcatcher: "What was that about the circus?"
Shamans, they are just like that. It's quite easy to enter the spirit world and perform cleansing rituals after a properly packed peace pipe. Dreamwalkers are formidable opponents: not only can they strengthen allies and weaken enemies, but it's also better not to get hit by their heavy staff in close combat. However, for the Dreamwalkers themselves, the staff doesn't seem heavy. Inspired by the example of the Crushers, they toss their weapon high up, do a backflip, and deftly catch the descending staff.
Enraged Cyclops: "Oh, how I love nature!"
As stated in the unit description: Cyclopes are naive creatures with sensitive souls. And who would dare argue with this three-meter-tall naive brute? Their very sight evokes tenderness, followed by a relaxation of the bladder and intestines.
In their free time from battles, Cyclopes engage in studying nature. Unfortunately, nature itself stopped their development, so, having caught a butterfly with a huge paw, the Cyclops carefully releases it and observes its fluttering flight with childish delight. And then smashes it into the ground with a club!
This concludes the review of bored units of the Free Tribes. In the next part, we will tell you about the funny tricks of the Inferno. Believe us, there is plenty to see there!
