Ok my bad, I didn't pass my turn so I couldn't notice the difference right away. At least I have learned something new. But anyway, it's not like I care much about that. To me it's a minor disadvantage that doesn't affect the way I play.
Well, a full Pegasus army or a full Dragon Fly / Wyvern army is REALLY useful :)
That's exactly what I'm saying since the beginning of this thread. Unlike some others turn based strategy games, HoMM3 is a pretty well balanced game. And I keep thinking that there is no such thing as "town tier". You may prefer a town over another for many reasons that are proper to your play style, but the tier ranking is a non sense to me.
My opinion exactly. The others do not agree, that's why I answered. The Fortress is the best according to my play style, and I thought it had too little love in this thread, but my brother does miracle with the Castle.
I tend to think that one or two castles are sligtly below par (I won't say which), but by a small margin and maybe only because none in my "play group" used those (well).
HOMM 1 was not balanced at all, HOMM 2 had a good balance, except for the knight and barbarian only balanced for small/mid size map. HOMM 4 had good balance for the castle, but not as good as HOMM 3. Never went far enough in HOMM 5 to tell.
Also : I have no idea of the balance of the Conflux in MP since we mostly played before we had the add-ons.
