The Floody Land

There is still some people with the old phones around!

The thing is the strategy doesn't happen during the battle, but before. You need to come up with a balanced team and others which are color counters specific, the whole system with combo dots is a bit confusing at first but once you start to get the grip of it it's kinda awesome. It is highly rewarding to wipe out enemies after you spent an hour or so managing your creatures and coming up with the best you can given what you got. There is also a lot of variety in the creatures, 500 is not just the number, the people who worked on this are clearly dedicated. All the thinking part is very immersive and sadly not shown in that video, each creature has its own screen and it's really tasteful, with wonderful music on the background, closer to the old homm tracks in spirit.

Yeah I guess I got a "coup de coeur"...

Get a smartphone, android!

Spoiler:

Ah, these mobile game icons.
I always feel sick of such bright tones and "vector"-styled interfaces put over hand-drawn images.

That's how mobile games look like, at least this one has some fairy behind the artists' hands.

Aw crap, got -38 Celsius today, and up to -50 is gonna be in the night. The car is not moving, the deadlines are crawling, merry christmas everyone.

That's what I call a cold day! I would like to wish everyone a merry christmas

This year in Poland the weather on Christmas will be perfect: not so warm, so we will have a little snow and no mud outside, and not too cold, so going to a shop won't look like an adventure to the South Pole I really feel for inhabitants of southern regions, I will never forget when temperature fell to -35. This disturbing silence of beautiful, frozen world ... and all those preparations, when mum asked to go for a bread

Got my first tattoo session scheduled on the 13th of January. This stuff is kinda expensive, but I cannot let myself go to a less skilled master.

Seems that the shoulder and forearm parts will still be covered with Neptune, but I don't leave hope that Erathian Archangel has chances

So.. Why Neptune?

There is no specific reason. This example just covers that part of the arm in a satisfying way.

Yeah, when you plan a full-arm tattoo sleeve, all your ideas go to hell and you have to choose from a very limited number of options. Otherwise the sleeve won't look good and whole. I wanted sculpture, and that's what I can get.

Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!

HotA team just wrote an update on the situation of the next release: Here

It features information about a new visual feature of the game that makes hero classes have different sprites according to their gender. It looks very impressive to me and I see that Dr Slash played a major role in make these. Amazing work indeed, dear Dr Slash

Thanks! Yep, it took almost eleven months of hard work, but I did it But it's still not the biggest addition of the update, there is more cool stuff coming in HotA 1.5.0, stay tuned!

Awesome video with JVC playing Creature Quest: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWrMDnAApvM&feature=youtu.be

Honestly, I'm having a blast with the game, here is the HC thread that has been kicking off lately, if anyone interested.

It's a smartphone game!! yay!
Thank you Galaad for sharing.

You're welcome, feel free to join our guild, HC Kreegans.

I played it a little, and how to say... Hmmm seems to be a rince and repeat system.
I am not sure to play that much anymore, but if I feel like playing daily, I sure will join HC Kreegans

The grindfest is only there if you play competitively, the game in itself is surprisingly strategic.
Check here for a post I made with example of how my main team works. And here is a nice starter guide.
Feel free to submit in the HC thread as well as sending an in-game request for joining the guild.

I found that.

EVERNIGHT - Enroth I (The wizzard) - Tribute to HoMM2

https://gaming.youtube.com/watch?v=6E45hn57klQ

Aye brothers of Enroth, I seek for your help, could you -for those also registered down HC- help us out down HC were there are still a few Ashanites infesting the Altar, by voting in favor of the complete annihilation of Dark Elves and Faceless in our dear Dungeon that has been raped a thousand times by Erwin le Moron and Ubi**** you will remind everyone it was an atrocity and we must be a crushing majority.

Thread/Poll HERE

In advance, I thank thee
Hail Enroth!

Aye noble sir, the vote of destiny has been cast.

Sir Albe cast on Ashan "Dungeon" faction.
Ashan "Dungeon" faction fainted.
Victory

I thank thee again for such fast and efficient response, I knew I could count on you!

Ehhhh.

On one hand, I can understand and sorta agree on the dismissal of the D&D-knockoff dungeon additions of the later Heroes games, but I am against of the hate what drow's getting there in general. Salvatore is a great writer and I have almost all the books of Drizzt Do'Urden (with only three missing - one I lent but I never got back and two which were only just recently released) and I don't find the BDSM aspects terrible and all that. (Infact the same person who introduced me to Heroes introduced me the Drizzt-saga at the same time - and Star Trek, and Magic the Gathering, and pen-and-paper RPGs, and I was 11 at best back then. Fun times.)

TBH I wouldn't feel the inclusion of a single drow-knockoff unit as a dungeon addition/neutral one atrocious, as long as the traditional/legacy Heroes unit concepts take priority.

Opposing the developments of Ubisoft over the classic MM universe has become a habit and joke on its own (see Purple Spiders, for instance). So, don't take it too seriously.



Also, it's not about Drow themselves, but their Ashan-native impersonation in the Dungeon setting which was originally composed of Greek concepts and the like.

HC Kreegans has been severely injured! Felonies happened and I would really like to send a call to all JVC fans to give a chance to Creature Quest and join my guild! Especially fellows Enrothian brothers. I've been playing the game daily for about half a year now, and I can assure you it is absolutely fantastic, the genius of JVC and the former NWC crew that are working on it can really be felt in this game, and I just know it will keep on getting better with time.
Thanks for your attention and consideration, hail Enroth!
