Still not immune to many level 1-5... So the Titans are still happy.

Hi, do you know a way to make it so a certain hero start with a certain troop? I wanted to make Corkes come with just a Dragonfly, so he always had 12 of movement.
It would have to be related to a particular map and somehow be removed if some other map was played.

So, first of all, is he only recruitable from tavern in your map? Or is he in a prison or directly on the map? (I think it's the first, but after all the experience with the people on reddit... Not bad to make sure of every detail)

Yup, he is in a prison. But I want to be able to dismiss and re-hire him with max movement, that's why I want to change his starting troops to one dragonfly.

You might want to ask this on the HoMM3 hacking guide thread, tbh. I think the guide contained something about starting troops and such. Lemme take a look in it.
Edit: Yeah, it does contain that. Search with "ctrl-f" for "starting" and right over the first result is how you can do that.

Update may 12th 2020:
* All Knights starts with Leadership again. (Still hoping one day the morale and luck caps can be raised and with graphics that supports it.)
* Melodia starts with Luck again. (Still hoping one day the morale and luck caps can be raised and with graphics that supports it.)
* Magic Elementals back to not being immune to enemy Fire Shield and Magogs area attack.
* Gold and Black Dragons are no longer immune to Fire spells, they are still immune to mind spells + Lightning Bolt, Chain Lightning and Armageddon.
* Shackles of War is now allowed. (It is a very powerful artifact, but it is only 1 out of 47 major artifacts, so it is pretty hard to obtain and it could also land in the hands of a powerful enemy.)
Also wondering if Mana Vortex should perhaps be buffed, to +60% or +75% mana, but since Expert Intelligence is now only +50%, perhaps it makes sense to leave Mana Vortex at +50% as well.
Mana Vortex is also a very cheap and easy to build building and AI can't build it, so I guess it should'nt be too powerful.

Update june 4th 2020:
* Mana Vortex buffed to +75% mana.
* Conflux's Mage Guild returned to normal.
* Green and Red Dragons resistances returned to normal.
* Advanced Slow is now like it is in HotA.
* AI Value of Air Shield now closer to that of original game.
* Land Mine now always creates 8 Land Mines no matter if you have Fire Magic or not.
* Increased growth of Peasants to 20. (Highest growth tied with Pixies.)
* Added a note about AI not being able to cast Remove Obstacle.
* Added a note about AI Value of spells chosen by AI. AI casts spells based on AI Value in relation to mana cost.
Update july 21st 2020:
* Psychic Elementals cost returned to that of SoD.
* Magic Elementals cost closer to that of SoD.
* Dwarf, Dendroid Guard, Stone Golem and Walking Dead all have speed 4 now, which means standard minimum speed of any unit is 4.
* Starting skills of Theodorus and Yog returned to normal. (I still don't like Ballistics.)

If you don't like ballistics, might I suggest combining it with artillery?

That is a great idea or maybe First Aid, since I consider it even more useless than Artillery.
You know how to combine Ballistics and Artillery or Ballistics and First Aid?

Ballistics can be also made more useful by swapping the catapult's initiative value (edit both: 064B8D,
064B98) with the Arrow Tower (064B6F & 064B7A), thus allowing it to get the first shot in siege battles.
Another possibility is to merge Ballistics, Artillery, and/or First Aid into one skill by changing which
skill is checked in the below routines (D3 = Ballistics, DD = Artillery, E4 = First Aid):
Tent (control): 0745FF & 073914 Catapult (control): 0745C7
Tent (healing): 0E4B98 Catapult (damage): 045AC6 & 0735E7

So if I change "tent control" at 745FF and 73914 from E4 -> D3 and "tent healing" at E4B98 from E4 -> D3 it means the Ballistics skill will affect both Catapult and First Aid correct? I guess this means I have to disable First Aid then? How will it affect the First Aid specialty?, maybe I have to give the 3 First Aid specialists "Ballistics specialty" instead?

Yeah, you'd have to switch the specialty over to Ballistics.

Hello, did you actually manage to implement these chananges?
Also, do you have discord or something, I want to ask you few questions.

Yes, all of the things mentioned in the first post are implemented.
I sometimes change things around a bit, also for balance reasons, so nothing is set in stone.

Asking all HC members:
Are you interested in me releasing my mod or should I keep working on it or just keep it to myself?
Is there anything in particular you like or dislike from my mod?

My two cents:
I expect Learning and First Aid skills to still be useless later in the game, but now they're worth early game. I'd rather have them reworked to utilize mechanics from HeroesV - First Aid ressurecting and casting debuffs, Learning providing bonus stats for every x levels (retroactively). But that could be hard to implement.
Peasant and Horn of the Abyss changes are questionable. Yes, these things were unbalanced but they had a meme value.
Overall, very good mod changes.
I was reading through them and then realised 'wait, there is no download button, do I have to make all of this myself?' So yeah, I will be glad if you decide to publish your modification.
