aaaaahhhhh... this music brings me back memory... how i'd always play it while hoping that my brother isn't home early.. he'd push aside n take over the pc..
Dungeon gotta be my favorite, for a couple of reasons. Mana vortex, you end up having like 300 mana points so you can spam your implosion ore lightning bolt and*insert spell here* the whole time. Black dragons who are immune for all magic, so just have a couple of black dragons and just cast the spell armegeddon and you have instant victory. And the best reason cause its a creepy castle to begin with.
Haha, well, one of those heroes has the very common Swedish name Gunnar... which over here is regarded as more silly that cool. A geezer kind of name, so to speak. XD
Alamar Ajit Gunnnar Darkstorn Tunare Sepinroth Shakti Deemer Jeddite is the heroes That I can oull out of my head without even thinking so much over which is in it. But yeah most of them are overpowered in dungeon but If you looked at how expensive that castle is you'll see why they are.
I really hate in heroes 5 how there wouldn't be any explanations as to how you get items and stuff - In heroes 3 it would say you found some old battlefield or something and found the armor, gave a neat little story.
In heroes five - You get the armor. And that's that. Woohoo. :|
When comparing Towns, heroes and buildings must be put into consideration. Besides the ridiculously overpowered Conflux, Dungeon and Castle are nearly par due to the heroes and buildings. Two Warlocks START with Resurrection and have easy access to any school of magic, especially Earth and Fire. There are two Castle heroes which stand out, Adela (Diplomacy is OP) and Sir Mullich (+2 Speed...)
Overall Dungeon is my favourite town, even before Castle.
Tactical combat town, mana vortex is great, 2 good ranged units plus 3 fliers, great for siege plus during defence gaze of medusas and paralyse of manticores help very much if your walls are penetrated. Overall very strong
I like Dungeon as well, but other castles like Fortress are just as good. You simply need the right tactic and amount of units; perhaps a combination of different castles. The Minotaur Kings are definitely tough, and the Black Dragons can be a pain in the a**. Deemer is the best hero imo for Dungeon : ) To start out with meteor shower helps you A LOT in the beginning. And the mana vortex rocks! :D
sry but you are mistaken - Dungeon is a good town, but Medusas and Black Dragons are hardly the reason. The town has one of the best heroes and structures, namely - Shakti and Portal of Summoning. While Medusa has it's crowd control capabilities, it's mostly the Black Dragon that helps. It's speed and anti magic helps win the mass slow/haste wars.
By the way, does anyone know where I could find the classic 'Myth and Legend' scenario. I've got Heroes III Complete, but for some reason it's not there. Anyone?
Damn. I started playing Heroes III after a 3 year break and, no surprises here, it's still as awesome as ever. There's no better way to spend an evening than to open a bottle of Fanta and begin a XL sized scenario.
Yes, the Architacutre is Asian.. but the rest of the cultural themes are from Celtic folklore! and then we have both the Norse version of Elves and Dwarves!
this theme fits the dungeon perfectly. evil, charming and MAJESTIC. the best city theme in homm3, for sure. and one of the best town artworks in the game.
dungeon.... definitely the best faction ever.... until the fag elves coming... Maybe one day, dungeon will find again this ancient glory... i hope.

Heroes 6 WITHOUT Dungeon faction -.-
can´t undestand why they are making a heroes game without black dragons..
does any of u guys now if there even is underground terrain in heroes 6 ??
s4loking 6 months ago 2
@s4loking there is underground terrain, and i guess they wait with elves and dungeon for an addon.
the mainfocus is on orcs/humans/ and the war with the demons.
i think theyll release an add-on about the split of the silver cities (academy and necromancers) and possibly the same with dungeon and elves.
definitly Add-on-material

I think Dungeon is one of the best towns. Some reasons:
1.) It has mage guild 5
2.) It has one of favourite monster: Minotaur King.
3.) It has some good creatures.
4.) It gt good magic heroes. (Malekith is my favourite, because I love "Sorcery")
5.) Mana vortex and that experience place.
6.) Black Dragons (Even though I like Archangels better).
Dungeon is a good town. While something like Fortress, sucks. (Personal opinon, even though I love those Mighty Gorgon's death stare.
HimTheHein 2 years ago 3
i think you didn't play human opponents with reasonable iq.
Fortress is one of the best towns, but lets stay ot Dungeon.
1st. and foremost reason: It has Shakti as a hero
2nd. Portal of Summoning!
3rd. nice lvl 6 flier to battle lots/horde lvl 2 and 3 shooters week 1/2/3.
last - if you ever get to black dragons you get speed and magic resist to win the speed/slow contest : )
now forget Sorcery and learn to get logic and earth magic to complement the offense and tactics you already have : )
