They'll sure be in 6 or 7 stacks (seems you have a lot to learn on this matter, look for wub's posts) and you still lose if they are in one stack: they'll get morale sooner or later, besides, you can't hit and run them, the speed difference is not enough.

Ok...Orrin is a blast with marksmen...and 85 pikes is also very much on day 8..
Btw...i played with Luna...her stats were 0/0/7/7....and map was NOT jebus, but "Vortex"....so no chance to get much higher stats that early.

Orrin did not matter and the pikemen neither. Any normal hero with some 5/5 stat, maybe an advanced archery skill (Orris was level 1 too) can do the job: 30+ marksmen shoot the beasts dead easily. The same with some 20+ grand elves. 80+ centaur captains is nice too (though being 2-hexed is a problem). The key factor here is mass slow.

i tried going against 7 behemots(6 stacks 5B+2AB) with 112 master gremlins, some gargoyle fodders and 4 magi with neela 2/3/3/5 exp earth, exp air (removed armourer and scholar previously on map editor), but the AB stack got morale round two and it led me to my doom. I think it's possible with spirrit of opression or mass sorrow.

Well I tried a start on Balance template with conflux. This Town is insane.
No bad starting units.
Sprites are good for hit and run and blocking shooters (shooter armies up to level 3-4 are easy prey weak one).
Airs do a lot of damage and are fast. Waters and Fires have just enough HP to survive some bashing without even losing one.
Earth elementals are slow, but that can be compensated with tactics and battle tactics. They are good for taking out fast, tougher opponents (expect to lose some - who cares?).
Even 2 psychic elementals are too good to be true.
I have built firebirds day 7. Don't even want to try them.
Nearly no resources needed to build the dwellings.
The heroes are great. What else needed?

bless.no point in cursing them cos 4 out of 7 units are immune to fire. but even so,damage 2-8 is great for a lvl 2, with bless it's magnifficent.So bless it's pretty cool with conflux.

if you ask me [but you probably dont  ] Conflux is a very good town [but i feel like it was hand drawn... dunno why] there's just one titzy mitzy bit that bothers me about it... its WAAAAAAAAAAY too expensive you will need at least 50000 to hire a complete conflux army every week [at least i think so] except for the sprites... the cheapest unit i have ever seen in heroes 3 [unless i missed something else].

huh???
castle and tower are much more expensive. conflux costs 20500 without phoenixes and 28500 with phoenixes. this makes it only the third most expensive town.

well I like Tower, cuz of the spells and lots of archers (upgraded gremlins, titans, magis) I'm not very smart on names and things like that. I'm just not a v good player. But they have a lot of archers and that's nice. Necropolis is nice cuz of necromancy, the black horse guys that do double damage, great liches, vampire lords and skeletons and zombis

I like vamps...
And I think for phoenixes it works like this: 1 rebirths 1, 5 rebirths 2, 9 rebirths 3, and so on... you keep adding four each time... I'm not positive though, because I hardly ever play conflux...

well ever sense i got heroes complete ive been trying to master the conflux [in what order should i build, and i hope you understand cuse if you dont, hang me!]
but i still think its too expensive.
the tower was my fave town till i got complete, but i still play with it, i never noticed that its expensive. castle... i dont use it often, it feels too normal [what can i say, i like the weird towns].

And I think itīs 20% of phoenixes who resurrect...
Might be rounded up, if stack of 1 phoenix can resurrect 1 phoenix. Havenīt tested that one, though.

battle of the banneds
So, what does happen when you pit Conflux against Necropolis? Who wins? (assuming L/XL random map that makes Necro bannable in the first place)

IMO, there is an easy formula:
The longer the game takes, the more "unbeatable" Necro gets.
Conflux has a hugh advantage in the beginning of the game, coz those sprites can take out big non-shooter stacks, so u can reach other areas much earlier or get nice arties earlier. But this advantage is gone when the amount of skellies grow and grow....especially when the other guy has teleport. Legions of skeletons, teleported on the right place, will kill anything with one hit though.....
I think, if the game lasts more than 3 weeks, Necro will always win (when played correctly..).

Even bunches of bounce-back phoenixes can't stop the skeleton legions? I'm surprised.
