we are de's. We will rock the world with our shrews and rogues.
Imagine our tropps if we upgrade it max fully:
Bandits - Renegade thugs
Rogues - Blood sisters
Minotaurs - Minatour gladiators(Since they have heavy armor)
Lizard cavalry -Lizard chargers(They keep sweeping everybody in the way!)
Hydras -Ladons(The same)
Dark witches _Dark sibyls (The same)
Twilight dragons
We can have powerful poisoners,then we can have blood raging more powerful unit in dark elf,then heavy armoured minos and more fierce and more striking lizard chargers then assailants.We should be proud for these future alt upgrades dark elf heroes! |
Dear Acron, Alt Upgrade in HOMM was for different playstyle. For example shrews are shock units while blood sisters get HP at the expense of intiative.Liz chargers doesnt have lizard-bite ability.Mino Gladiators got good defence but lost doble strike. So they are not more powerful but suitable for different play styles.
One more thing : The best alt upgrade, I think is of elf's that is forest brethren and rangers :( |
liz chargers do have lizard-bite but lost lizard charge instead |
I've had some troubles in the past playing against knights as a DE and I was wondering what other tactics people have used to win? (Btw at lvl 10) |
for post 22:
Ravna,what you say are correct.But imagine lords!Not homm!Think of upgrading the alts in a correct way!Then we can rule all level if we have those powers!Think positively everytime! |
at lvl 10, the talent tactics is a must for de because 4 stack of shrews can hit the opponents troops in the back row. for example, i am an elf and i pwn de 9 out of10 times. the only way they stand any chance is if they go offense with tactics because i cant split bowmen as much as i want because i cant protect them efficiently. tactic talent almost assures shrews survive first roundof shooters and gives their other troops time to set up in attack position. |
can some of you say some advice for me for hunts against enormous stacks of creatures with shrews? As I can see, there are always so many stacks, that I cannot do it properly.
Here are my last 2 hunts:

At farmers: they got morale often...
At skeletons: their ini is bigger than half of my ini, so I cannot attack them once and flee in the next round...
My main is demon and I hate to be beaten in such white hunts.
thanks in advance! |
in the skeleton one low tactics amde u lose.
Why bring 6 lizard cavalry in front of skellys so shrews cant attack |
Though this hnts r looking white but u need MH set to kill this...
Reason-
1) Nwe AI upgrade made this creature smarter!!
2) U shrew wont get enough tiles as u singly got small feild.
3) U somtimes need to wait to get 2 turn for shrews.Thts only def against morale burst.
Without some set its really difficult to kill this amount of hp..
1288*4=5152 that means with avg 600 damage ur shrews does U need almost 9turn to kill 1 stak!!! Do u really think this 1 easy?? |
thanks, Konan_D
now I have tried against 1089 swordsmen and it worked...note that step at the end when I blocked the way of the morale having swmen with 1 shrew...without that I'd loose this one too...

Also From ur fight u can see this improve AI.Previously they ran all 4 tile but now they only go 2/3 tiles and restrain ur shrews movement. |
hey im level 7 just turned de from demon whats some advice for how to play de well? :) |
See some lvl 7 DE batle to get idea.There no easy way to learn it u hav 2 fight & learn.
just remember ur Liz r very dangerous & use rogues in tactical way.Soon u will hav shrews :) |
i am not de when i was lvl 7 but i will give you some advise based on my experience now.
your lizard only do max damage if they charge, try to move them as much as you can when attacking.
rogues are fragile but do high damage and has high speed and initiative. they are useful in blocking shooter. make sure to take retal with one of the rogue before attacking an enemy with major stack of rogue.
mino normally is used as supporting units to clean out what left behind till they get upgrade.
poisoner are useful against elf in pvp since their poison deal exact damage s the amount of poisoner you have. they move before lizard so you could use them to take retal before charging with lizard.
and for magic guild, build them if you want go for pvp, else wait till lvl 8 when you get disruption ray. |
thanks guys ill do my best :D |
