How did you come to play and like Heroes 1/2/3?

I have not played heroes 1 but i have played heroes 2 and i own heroes 3. I will also be buying the much anticipated  game Heroes 4.

The reason i got h3 was because oneday i was at a friends house. It was his birthday and he had been given h3 for it. He also had h2 and my friend is also a member of this sight. anyway, I was sitting near his computer and we played a hotseat game. there was 4 of us who were playing. I was extremely interested in all the characters and the towns as i am a lover of these types of games. It was really interesting moving the hero and fighting wandering heroes and monsters, sometimes winning and sometimes losing. It was fun estimating and guessing if we had a chance or not. Anyway, after the party i went home. I decided to get h3 for my birthday too. It was fantastic when i first played it. it was fun and also a bit confusing.

Well that is my story on how i came to see and get H3.

I installed HOMMI from a Twilight CD and got hooked right away! Just went out and bought the original HOMMII (that’s the first and probably last game I actually bought ).

Just been an addict since (well ,,, me and my wife - luckily).

I remember this very clearly

I was talking on the phone with a friend of mine and she said she was playing a game called Heroes of Might and Magic and it was highly contageous. I asked if it was an RPG and she said it was a strategy game. It was a NWC game and I thought it was worth seeing. She showed me later how one plays it and I found it interesting but nothing more. I joined the 3do comm and there I found MM fans. I talked to some HoMM3 addicts and they all were fascinated that I posted on their board without knowing the game. My friend gave me her CD and soon after that I joined the HAA.

This is it. :-)

One of my friends had HoMM 2, and he showed me it once at his house. That was enough to get me hooked. I bought HoMM 2 right away after that, and 3 (and both expansions) right when they came out. And I'll be getting HoMM 4 within a week of its release for sure.

Cussing is not the only way to insult/ hurt a person. I can't remember hurting/ insulting a person but I do remember getting angry with guys who can't hold their tongues. So, mister Titan, let me tell you a thing or two about Internet communication before getting me acquainted with your six joyful friends.

First, there are graphic thingies called smileys and they are used to express feelings and emotions without words. This smiley here ;-)) means either that
1. I am kidding
2. I don't really mean it
3. I am pulling you leg.

This smiley here :-P means I stick out my tongue and ;-P means that I DEFINITELY am pulling your leg. In case you don't know what this means, well, it means I say something without meaning it for the purpose of teasing you.

Plus, there are typical abbreviations. *rofl* means *rolling on the floor laughing*

Am I really a nerd? How interesting.

Bored at work searching for a new game...

Came across the demo on a site somewhere (cant remember now) downloaded it and started playing and someone at work had Heroes 3 and brought it in for me and I started playing and got hooked.

Im only just getting the expansion packs, and then heroes 4 and all the chronicles after that.

...hmm, indeed I do believe she has a point...while you do have your right to free speech, there still are further boundaries than simply refrain from using profanity...if anything gets out of hand, I still reserve the right to close the thread...just wanted to remind you of that


...lol, that was great! lol, if she's a nerd, what're you supposed to call me, haha

Old School...

I played a great SEGA Genesis game about 10 years ago called King's Bounty. It never left my mind over the years, because it was so darn good.

Then in summer 1999, I was reading Mac Gamer's Ledge (now macgamer.com) and a news article was titled "Heroes of Might and Magic III Coming to Macintosh". I was curious so I clicked on the link and read about it. It sounded interesting, and more importantly, there were a couple screenshots. One was of a battle sequence, and my first thought was "that looks like the battles from King's Bounty". So, I drooled over the game for months waiting for it to be released and bought Heroes II in the meantime, and have been addicted ever since. But really, if you count King's Bounty, I've been addicted for 10 years now...

I heard the game "HoMM: Quest for the Dragonbone Staff" for PlayStation 2 is a remake of King's Bounty.

Well, RMS, I myself don't like people who have ALL but the right sense of humour. You tell em a joke and they get offended. Thank you, not my kind of stuff. I get pissed off in moments like that (as you could see)

Plus, on many boards the filter can't "catch" everything. Offensive works like the 2 4-lettered words, etc. are easy to filter bit not the idioms and direct assosications. I can give examples on IM but not here, of course. My point is that this is what mods are for. To add to the filter. And so far, they have done well here.

My adventure began like this:

Back in 02.1997 My favourite computer magazine put a demo of Heroes2 on the CD. It was my favourite game for looong months. But I could never beat that Broken Alliances sceniario even on easy . Several years later, a friend of mine had HoMM3. I played it and I liked it. But it wasn't as good as that HoMM2 demo lol. Last year a friend of my bro lost three of my CDs, so he gave me his HoMM2. A bit later, the very same magazine gave away HoMM1. And at the early 2001, I found HC. About a month ago I got my 4th star. Oops! This isn't just the beggining! It's the whole story!

The same old story

a friend of mine told me he was very good at this game and no one could beat him up. I started just to prove him the opposite. And I got hooked.

Why would you use that word?
Yes, you are lucky because I only got pissed off. Next time make sure I don't have any comic abbreviation or reaction like *laughs* or *smiles* or *grins* or *winks*. I usually say what I mean.

I also mean it when I say something makes me laugh. HARD. Rolling on the floor laughs suggests I'm UTTERLY amused. Better remember this. Others might use it as well.

And last before I shut up. Think with the right part of your body when talking to a lady. If you attack girls for no reason in RL, I doubt you are going to be successful with them. I hope my point was understood well this time and I no longer have to explain why I am amused.

...hehe, the only reason I don't use abbreviations that much is only because I prefer smlies much more, and since the most common abbrevs are used for emotions, I think that would be redundant

...oh, and can you lighten up with the exclamation marks a bit? Thanks

DT, I asked you to mind your manners

Stop with these !!! marks. It takes the page ages to load. I'm trying to be patient but even my patience is an infinite quantity.

Plus, I am on the opinion that "The exception only cofirms the rule" Think about it. The way you talk to me is not the way a lady should be treated.
