I've been getting back into HOMM 3(Been years since I played). My friends and I have always argued on which creature is the "best". My personal favourite creatures are Griffins. You get them in high numbers(if there is a week of the Griffin, GG you win), they have infinite retaliations, and can fly over obstacles.

I've always played castle. I never really play anything else, unless I don't have a choice.(Campaign, Scenarios) Most the time I play HOMM 3, its on a random map.

What is your favourite creature and Town?

Don't really have one...most commonly I would pick a random Town to play with and hope it was not Conflux

Storm elemental is the best choice in the game (cheap and powerful)
than...

Most OP - Skeleton + Necromancer hero. You can easily get 10k sleketon and break the game

Battle Dwarf + Ufretin are deadly

Are you playing with the wake of god mod/expansion right? If not download it here and thank me later

Can I use WOD with the GOG version of HOMM 3? I've always been meaning to get it.

i think so. Now there is a new "framework" for heroes3 called ERA. with ERA you can turn mod on/off like The Fallout/OBlivion/Skyrim launcher (if you are familiar with it). You should try it, it's much better than vanilla HOMM3

I find it funny that people still complain about the damn necromancy even after so many years when it was so damn easy to kill the skeletons. I still remember all the times i used to play hotseat with my friends and the one who played necropolis would always get cocky about his x thousand skeletons and i would just rape them with my Castle army :X

I always liked Castle & Rampart when I was younger, as I wanted to be on the good side.

Now, I don't really mind any of them, although I never remembered where each of the individual structures in the Necropolis lay (I think I played these guys the least).

Favourite units were probably Crusaders, that double attack.

That's quite simple, no?

Hero - Tyris

Creature - best in game 1 tier Infernal Troglodyte

Town... - hmmm... Castle/INferno/Dungeon

Music - NECROPOLIS based on LISZT TOTENTANZ

Not sure I really had a favorite creature (maybe the Phoenix?) but favorite faction I would probably go with the Rampart. Binding creatures into place with the Dendroids (who were able to take a lot of punishment), pulverizing them with your other units, and shooting them to pieces with your Grand Elves was just marvelous =P

Actually had to look at a wiki to revive some memories.
My favortie town was the Fortress all the way at the time, and most likely still is.
I think my preference goe to the Gorgon and Wyvern Monatch, with some love for the Hydras and Lizard Warriors.

I liked Dungeon and Necropolis the most. Minotaurs and manticores were cool and necro was fun though overpowered.

Oof. I've clocked an hour too many in HoMM3. My favs are mostly low tier creatures - Battle Dwarves, Dragonflies, Grand Elves, Skelingtons etc. Also, dat Mighty Gorgon.

As for towns... Probably Tower and Dungeon.

Dungeon, and my favorite creature is the black dragons :P inmune to magic.
And, if I can remember, I allways get Sephirot heroe..with the building that double the mana points Sephirot get a lot of magic to spare, and if I get armaggedon spell, with the dragons in my army I can kill everything easy :P

I haven't played HoMM6 but, if those pictures are anything to go on, their art department at least did a great job.

Yeah that's the only part they sort of did right, battles were fun aswell. The story is atrocious, the characters are just plain bad and lifeless, the game had no town screens which they at least corrected later with some, weak, 2D ones, terrible skill tree, removal of mage guilds and the list just goes on. I'm a longtime fan of the series and i own them all and HoMM 6 is by far the weakest game in the series imho.

HOMM6 wasn't bad

HOMM 4 was bad

HOMM6 was simply disastrous! The story was probably written by someone with IQ below 10. Come on... I've stop playing when I saw girl with brother-complex + that tragic momment when she learned that her ex-husband got her pregnant... HOMM6 shouldn't even exist.

Well like i said, the design of some of the creatures and the combat saved it from being a total wreck. However i do agree, in it's current form it should have never existed. A HoMM 6 by Nival would have been awesome, however, they refused to put up with Ubisoft's bullshit and good for them that they did i guess. Let's not forget that this game and Ubisoft's management of the project bankrupted a studio.

Well... frankly speaking when I saw that Meniac and Ghoul had exaclty the same base model I was kinda mad... So I can't agree with creatures part.

Well they destroyed everything that was good. It was cool long story but everything started to fail since expansions of HOMMV...

I don't know, i liked both expansions. Sure the story was not that amazing but it was more than decent(and stellar compared to the HoMM 6 one) and gameplay wise TOE was great. I liked most of the alternative upgrades they did and the new town was great fun to play.

Castle and my favorite units would have to be Sharpshooters and Enchanters. Yes, i know they were kind of OP, but they were just so fun to use. I also loved necropolis, conflux and storm elementals and bone dragons.
