HOMM 4 tactics!

whacky · 08-27-2002, 01:10 AM

For all you rookies out there here are some of my own experiences
For sieges the best thing to do after you've destroyed the ranged units, use an order made to cast a displacement spell on one of the enemies near the wall so that he comes adjacent to the wall, now he's in range of your range attackers and since your armies are way way back from the gate the computer wont even bother to come out, and even in multiplayer it works fine, but you do get off a few attacks before people realize it

Secondly while against any difficult opponent get a high level spell caster to dulf a potion of fire resistance and armageddon, its ok if you have fire elementalsor efreets , i practically won whole of HOMM 3 with it, and am getting away with it in this too !
I'll keep posting more here and then !

What type of magic school do you have to have to learn "Town Portal" in Homm 4 ? and how can you be an expert in it?

In homm 3 was it Earth so is it Nature in this game?

They dont allow Town Portals now, you can cast town gate(order) which will teleport you to the nearest friendly town. And Megabot and all be sure to try this :
While sieging an enemy town, now you dont have to worry about pesky ranged units, as they are ALWAYS on the towers cast teleport(order) on them and bring them next to your best melee unit, whack and smack the ranged unit, now he doesnt get to fire on you from afar, cheesy, very cheesy

Thx but i have try this Towngate spell and it only take you to the town nearest you so you cant pick out what town you want to go to. That is irretating when you are on otherside of the map (xl)
