not more than me
anyways on topic
my favourite faction is dungeon
pros
Very strong damging spells
Best creeping ever ^.^
Great at rushing
bloodfuries and stalkers are incredible for early to midgame.Furies for slow walkers and stalkers for everything
Hydra's incredible tanking skill and shadow mistresses casting spells w/o being exposed ^_^
cons
Very weak growth rate for tire 1,2,3 units and making them all almost completely useless late game.
P.S : tire 3 is useless during any period of the game
Too much magic dependent if the hero doesn't get to cast it's spells u're screwed
Almost useless at long games vs swift factions,Ex : sylvan
Too much depenedent on crystal(but the creeping skill makes that a lil bit acceptable)
Heroes just get sp and attack and lil knowledge and no deff at all making them not able to survive even more
Irresistable magic affects ur own units making blackies + armageddon impossible (which was the whole reason i even train blackies,now i usually skip em,better save the money)
Lack of might makes it very hard to fight against academy

I play Necropolis from the day I discovcered Heroes 4 and 5 and from my experienct the time is working for me and against my enemy. Because:
You cannot cleanse the curse of Netherworld
You can cleanse Frenzy but usualy is too late,
And you are right, Necros suffer the first atack but I am curious if Sylvan will mop the floor with Necropolis units After they felt the Howl of Terror
And in the latest game Necropolis Army will bee BIG belive me. And those Skeletons and Liches will take care of most of the enemy shooters And with a little help of Franzy the meele units will be in deep sh*t.
The only problem, fighting Sylvan is defeating the Treants(man I hate These creatures)

Not really, heroes 4 was so much different that the experience from H4 barely counts.

That's why it's good to use it asap. if you wait, it will not be enough to stop might forces.
Quote:

No, you can't cleanse frenzy. Did you actually use this spell in the game, or are you just theorycrafting?

Ultimates have little impact on multiplayer game.
Quote:

It won't be that big, just a bit bigger than your opponent's one, but a lot, lot weaker if the game takes too long so it doesn't matter anyway.
Quote:
And those Skeletons and Liches will take care of most of the enemy shooters
THe shooters aren't much of a problem in this game anyway, excluding arcane archers.
Quote:

If you cast frenzy on them when they are next to your units, they will most likely attack your units anyway, with bonus damage.
Quote:

Treants are the least dangerous units in Sylvan's army, believe me. You have 6 other stacks to worry about first.

Can someone explain to me why are those arcane archers so feared? Dragons, dryads and dancers kill most, not arcane archers.

Even so... when i used to have a hard time vs sylvan, those were the creatures that posed a great threat, not archers. They were there just to finish the job, if there was something left to finish off.

I have to admit, this guy is really funny. Skeletons and liches taking care of enemy shooters :... You wont get the chance to shoot with them, they'll be dead before you can say, well, "raise dead" 
But, if he has problem defeating treants....
P.S. I have version TotE 3.0. What game do you guys play? Treants posing a threat, Necro endgame powerful, Dungeon overpowered, Orcs underpowered, etc etc...

exactly, but compared to other shooters in the game (for me shooters suck in this part), arcane archers are extremely dangerous.
Of course that they don't compare with sylvan's triple D attack (dryad-dragon-dancer ).

arcanes can score really good hit, but it's true that by no means they aren't most scary sylvan unit, and they hp  . but still they are far better than the other shooters.

Agree with you on this one

Ofcourse it wouldn't be enough, but it will do a good damage.
Quote:

No, you can't cleanse frenzy. Did you actually use this spell in the game, or are you just theorycrafting?
Yes I did used it. But Ididn't knew that it cannot be clensed.
Quote:

why do you belive that? Have you ever used it? Or is just "theorycrafting"?

Necropolis arent a lot lot weaker than other factions. Their only weakness is lvl 7 too weak and lvl. 2 useless. I agree that they are a town with medium low forces. But this isn't a huge disadvantage, only a small one and is compensated by the fact that they are more numerous.

These archers ARE a problem

I was thinking of casting frenzy on enemy meele stacks.

Treants are very slow but they have very high hp and very good defensive and you wil loose lots of time killing them. They do not do lots of damage but they are hard to kill.
And you said that it isn't necessary to gun me down to prove that bullers kill people. Ofcourse, but I didn't doubted that guns kill people, I doubt that you can handle a gun.

Alright boys let's play nice.
I'm loading my to keep the peace.

I generally like the idea of inferno but I hate that it's so tedious to actually play with them. Maybe if the game ran a little smoother. Not bad just not perfect.
I also like the orcs. The main pro of the orcs I can see are some interesting skill choices and a really sick time once they get the ultimate pendant.
So basically I like offensive might. hmph.

I'm really not sure at the moment but I lean on magic a little more. For now it's dungeon, orcs and sylvan.
Except for the orcs the other factions share a swiftness and are attack oriented.
