Tank unit in HOMM5
Hello fellow HOMM players!
I was playing HOMM5 the other day, in campaing mode, and during the campaign (I can't remember the name or number of if) where you have to get a pair of boots in order to get pass a broken bridge, I stumbled across a rather unusual unit. A tank.
Take a look at this screenshot: http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/1822/homm5tanksxp2.jpg
I tried searching for any occurences of a tank in HOMM5, but without any luck. Has anyone seen anything like this? I doubt it is supposed to be there. I just can't make it fit in with the rest of the scenario with horses, knights and mythical creatures.
Regards
Thomas

Yes, I did. It is the mirror kingdom map. I, too, was totally mesmerized by its graphical quality.
It is a mere teaser-joke from the Nival map makers. It has no role in the game and, is only inserted as an adventure map obstacle.
Hint: use the Instant Travel spell in order to surprise the enemy through the multi-ridges in the South of the map. Clean as many neutrals as possible, boost your hero's abilities via battles and gold chests. Do not bother fighting to acquire all these military outposts, because, it will decimate your slowly but surely growing army. Try to win it within 4 to five weeks.
Good Luck!

The tank has even programmed speciality - it shoots with Fireballs (most likely like Deleb's effect but on hero's attack)

Thanks for clearing that up. It's funny that they have managed to put in an easter egg :-)

That's not the only one. Just a hint.

There have been reports of this before - I couldn't find the exact post, but I think there was pictures of this in the "funny and interesting ingame pictures" thread.
