If not, then this will be a major limitation that will make positioning have an even less impact on the battle tactics. This will actually create more attacking opportunities than with hexes.
1) squares vs hexes: If on a squares battle field diagonal attacking is permitted then there is no problem. Maybe you could list some of your particular strategies for that?Īmccour. I'm less sure about the town building stuff. And again, securing enough for that isn't really difficult unless you're playing as a very multi-race empire, because you can just buy them from the marketplace.
Each race only needs one of the resources besides gold for building their top-tier unit. You need them for *building* stuff, but getting enough of the given resources for THAT is trivial enough to do and doesn't really require any sort of resource control. The SPEED at which a stack could move across the map mattered, yeah, but again, changing from hexes to squares doesn't seem relevant to that.Ī quick glance at gamefaqs seems to indicate that most of the resources really aren't going to be used for a lot. HoMM1 through 3 had fairly tiny strategic maps anyway. The actually positioning of the units never seemed to matter in enough of a way that a change from hexes to squares would really matter much anyway. Battles seemed more determined by numbers and whatever spells/skills the heroes had than anything else, and to a slightly lesser extent whatever unique properties/abilities the units had (which was still sort of a factor numbers). I disagree with every one of your statements. Iuliand: Have you played HoMM3 more than a few random maps on easy difficulty? Otherwise I can't figure out how did you reached this conclusion. A little more time-consuming and deeper than the HOMM series but the chances are high that you would like it. You probably know about Age of Wonders and it's sequels. Hopefully it will be a part of GOG soon since Fantasy General II, made by the same people on the same engine is here already. (Paul Romero and Rob King did something similar for the soundtrack for HOMM II) The graphics are gorgeous and the music is supposed to be very good, reusing many classical compositions. It is not really comparable to the HOMM series, since it seem to be much more focused on tactics than strategy (probably closer to The Battle for Wesnoth) but it looks like a game that could appeal to many of the same people. But remember, if we can't fight them in this world anymore there are other planes, other fields. i dont even want to write full list of great things they removed to make homm6 be "great" game. No normal battlefield with 8sides, only primitive 4side for children.Įtc.
No city building like in homm 1-2-3-4( i prefer 2d city rather than rotating 3d one building with branches)
Ambient_orange: why create yet another homm6 thread? we all know it only has homm in the title.
