That is my question. After the 1,5 patch there are not 8 but 10 slots in the boss section. one is for T bird. The other "tenth" one is the one I am interested in.

Dave James learn to count - there were nine bosses in HVI, so you had nine slots for them. DLC added two another, so it's eleven, not ten.

Jorgen couldn't be boss because he is Haven Cleric hero on that battlefield. He is just "ordinary" hero, not creature. And beside, in editor he always was in Heroes tab, not in Boss tab (which disappeared long time ago).

To be frank the image is not mine and I was pretty sure that the person who took the screenshot opened both with the same program, it would make no sense otherwise.. I'll investigate.


I have no doubt that the screenshots came from the same editor. The question is whether they were using the same editor that Black Hole used in-house or the same editor that Limbic used in-house. No reason to believe the two companies were using the same program.

In Black Hole's editor, the Black Hole code presumably looked legibly formatted. In Limbic's editor, the Limbic code presumably looked legibly formatter. Certainly, there are editors that display both sets of code with legible line breaks.

There are huge coding problems with both sets of code. But neither one of them is written in garble speak. The screen shots were deceptive. Whether deliberately or not I do not know.

Ok. Sorry my bad. For some reson I thought that you fight Mother namtaru two times (maybe due to the hearts of nightmares scenarion) and was comming out of the total number of 10 - 2 Boss battles. So the question should be (And I will edit it) who is the eleventh boss.

As for jorgen not beeing a boss. The battle where he is freed is considered one of 10 boss battles in the game, it has all the characteristics of a Boss battle but it is a very unique one as far as Hereos VI goes.

As for him beeing a Cleric. If anything else, after the games finish you cant say he is a Human Cleric when he is a Faceless, From game mechanics yes. He uses the skin of a Cleric and when you fight him in the Blood epilogue he is a Cleric but as well as Mukao they are only Faceless who have hiden their true form. In general. Even if the Faceless do notact as an active unit (to bad in my opinion), mentioning them in the bestiary would be very nice. And as the faceless appear only in few sceneraios of the campaigne the best place to put a triger for their adding into the bestiary would be Jorgens rescue. They do not have to add state or abilities to them just question marks to make them look more mystirious and some text.

For the same reason you cant buy Heroes in Web Conflux. I think think the web conflux has not been updated to the state of 1,5 yet. For example when you play a map from this patch it's name wount display in it.

Due to the fact that I just can get Altar of Wishes in the Web conflux to work at home (wonder if its due to my computers or something on conlux side) I cant tell which one of us is right. The fact is, there is no "hero" tab in the web conflux.

Incorrect, turning it off does not mean you play offline.

How?


* In the Uplay main window, click on the button with a gear on it in the upper left corner (between your profile name and the (i)nformation button).
* In the new window that appears, uncheck the 1st option (Enable Cloud Save Synchronisation for supported games)
* Click "Close" button.

I did that about 2 weeks after buying the game back in october.  I just couldn't stand waiting about a minute each time I exited the game.  Moreover, the synchronisation often ended with an error message.

Since then, I never had any troubles with my saves, even with the new version of U(can't)play.  And frankly, I prefer managing my files myself.

The problem is that there are a fairly limited number of different "functions" creatures can have:
- Melee offensive
- Melee defensive (tank)
- Ranged (not really sure if it makes sense to talk about offence and defence here, as Ranged units are pretty much by default offensive)
- Caster offensive (direct damage)
- Caster defensive (support)
- Flyer offensive
- Flyer defensive? (I guess you could call the Vampire a flying tank)

And that is, I think, pretty much it. Of course there are hybrids between the classes (Caster/Ranged most obviously, also some Melee/Ranged (or at least there used to be)) but still the number of "boxes" you can fit the creatures into is pretty limited.

Though I agree with you, Alci, I think one can divine a few more "boxes". Especially melee can be divided into more roles than just offensive and defensive.
-Assault(traditional melee offensive)
-Shock-Assault (melee offensive, designed to break defense(usualy via movement))
-Offensive support
-Glass Cannon(Very high damage, dies like wheat before a scythe)
-Tank
-Interceptor (Melee Defensive with high movement)
-Harasment (often paired with another role, most obviously shooter)
This is a bit late, but I disagree completely. While it is hard to think of other options they can exist, especially with special abilities and make the game much better. There are numerous units that have odd roles, take for example the shark guard. He defends your two ranged units, not by standing in front of them, but by crippling the enemies movement. If you were to squeeze out alternatives for every unit in a month or two most of them would be repeated roles, but it is entirely possibly to come up with units that have completely different and possibly unique roles.

The patches for this game are going in a direction I don't like.
Patch 1.4: Bugs fixed - NONE, zero, zilch.
Patch 1.5.1: Bugs fixed - maybe 1-2, but added at least 2-3 new bugs.
Bad bad bad!!!

P.S. Well, they did add 3D townscreens in 1.5.1, but this is not good enough with the multitude of bugs.
