That same method can also be used to kill off larger numbers of other creatures - particularly skeletons!

Sorry Jok3r...but this posts shows, that you never played a game against a human player...
And YOU angilito should read on! Halbardiers have 5 speed and they own spriets anyway!
Sprite VS HB (halbardeier) let's say three weeks full growth whicīh means 150 sprites and 84 HB:
sprite attacks first, takes about 20-30 HB
HB can't retilate but attcks after that, BANG! about 50 HB strikes and takes about half the sprites
etc,etc,etc.... Sprite will be owned!
ROFL...LMAO....you tell me you have played this game for about four years?.....LOL...
When you are playing against the comp., surely you will win like that, coz AI is playing like a fool...
But against a human player, the situation is different.
Do you really think, that i will attack your halbadiers and STAY in front of them?????
No way....i will wait on my first move and let you come into my range. If you wonīt walk but take defense stand, i will fly only 3 hexes. Next round i will wait...and what r u going to do then? Doesnīt matter....when itīs my turn, i will attack you and then fly away (9 hexes away from you..).
And the fight will go on like this...your halbadiers will be dead andīiīve lost NO SINGLE SPRITE...
The only way to help you in this fight is getting moral...if not...no chance....for sure..
@ KingofMinotaurs
You mentioned the defense skill of conflux units...
Same like stronghold....if you can strike first with huge attack, you donīt need great defense, coz when your attacking turn is over, the opponents army is so decimated, that he couldnīt do great damage on his turn anymore....
Believe it, the only town-type which can stand against a conflux is necro (coz of skeletons)....
Why donīt you try it on your PC as a test?
Make a hotseat game against your friend. He takes conflux and you castle......if he has played H3 for more than 2 times, he will swash you away...

What strikes me as kinda funny about this whole debate is that jok3r has never played online. So he can only make the assumption he is right. Its best not to declare u are right unless u have experienced hotseat games AND online games. Believe me when i say the online game is a whole new world
The only question with new players joining toh is: How long will their learning curve be? Angelito seems to have learned quite quickly, but oh too many times have i seen someone such as u jok3r come online with the attitude, i am right and the heck with all others experiences. If u dont give up, u will learn, but im betting it will take a long time 
My advice jok3r is be humble, read the threads, and learn. There is much information on this board. Good Luck

When i look on the TOP 20 players list of WW, i will see grendal on place 4...that means to me, he knows VERY WELL from what he is talking about...
But there is another very, very interesting fact on the "Banish List" of WW in relation to our "Jok3r" here:
Look at the second name of the banished accounts in Season 3
There you can see someone who is called "warrior_jok3r", banished coz of multiple accounts (wizard_sak, wizard_sak2, and some more) and false reporting.
Our Jok3r here in this thread has the following email-addy in his profile: "sak_the_great2000@yahoo.com"
Can you hear the same bells ringing like i do?....
...any suggestions, please mail to 220 Baker Street....lmao

Yeah, Lord_Woock is right.
Itīs another tournament and a site on the i-net.
Itīs similar to the "TOH" (Tournament of Honor) which is "a part" of this community here.

That's what the wait turn is for, no? You get two moves in a row that way, giving you the chance to return before hbs can touch you.

sorry angelito
I'm rally sorry! I got really mad, huh?
i guess sprites would own HB... but the thing is... I have never have a chance to play against a good human player... CAUSE OUR COPMUTER SUCKS!! I'm mean, it's the worst cpu you can ask for! homm3 is the best game it can handle!
that's why i don't know anything about online gaming or anything like that angelito! cause we NEVER BUY A NEW ONE!!
please forgive me..
but i DO know much about homm3 otherwise... that's for sure!
I've only played homm3 against a human player at hotseat!
but soon we'll buy a new cpu and a good "bredband" as we call it in sweden (don't know how to say in english tough)
PLEASE FORGIVE ME!!! I'M A DUMBASS!! I'M JERK!! YES!! but still i want to be in this forum! it's good!

Hehehehe....
Youīre far away from a dumbass dude...
There were also many points for me that i had to learn (and surely still have to...) when playing online against human players.
I didnīt felt offended by your words, coz i was in a similar situation like you are...
But take this as a good experience........if you believe it or not, the guys who played only 1 year online games are more IN the game than any other man who played 5 years against AI or hotseat.....thatīs for sure...
Take it easy...

OK....OK
I guess I have to agree with you all that conflux castle is better little bit that Castle. However, the truth is I hate conflux. They Gay, and HOMO
First, whats up with that butterfly women. Second, that storm element is walks slower than I turtle lol. Third, how the water elements walk on the ground, don't they need water? and for ice element, aren't supposed to melt in hot place, specially fire element standing near them. As for fire element, what they thinking of them superman or something. And magic elements attack looks gay, hiring the hands thats so homo attack, also magic elements looks they need to be in circus. Phoenixies looks like borning sparrows. ROFL. Just image by yourselfs how the will look without the fire. And for last for magma element, no comment. They look fine.
And you people saying that sprites will own halberdies. LOL they can't. If halberdies can't kill them they will rape all sprites. They looks nice chicks too.
Thats all I have to say for conflux gay, for now.....

Hmmm..
I think there is quite a problem with the conflux. 5 of the 7 kind of units are non-living, and can't be resurrected. In a castle mage guild the resurrection spell is not a rare one. Archangel-stack can resurrect a whole stack. The more is the better. So if you have the resurrect spell, you can use it on your archangels, then your archangels can resurrect another tough creature in the middle of the battle. The double resurrection (although only once in a battle, unless you have more AA stacks ) Is a great advantage I think.
I know I have to be lucky to have resurrect, but its not impossible. Training a hero to Expert Scholar, fishing Alamar or Jeddite from the tavern, and you don't even need the mage guilds. I like the larger maps, and on them this method has a real chance to work before I meet an opponent.
It's a way. It can work, but it can fail too. Maybe I am wrong, but I don't think conflux is so overpowered.

What need's to be done is to force the one whoever developed the game to make some simple patch in which he will make changes:
phoenix building MUCH harder to get, growth +3 tops, speed 15 or so,
cut off the immunities of conflux which practicly makes them unbereserkable, generaly way to immune to magic.
Practicly the only way to fight conflux now is to have that arti which negates all natural immunities, and hope that conflux will wait first turn, and that your big unit is immune to blind (artifact perhaps) and the opponent doesn't have berserk (but you do)... Armorer specialty hero would aslo be nice ;-)
There is now way that the castle can defeat conflux - all that's needed is blind at the start, or berserk all the time. And you can't counter the same way...
But frankly, this imbalance is not the worst for me in the game, DD, (and yes, TP too), are much much worse. When they happen, heroes practicly stop being heroes, and all adventure tactics is set aside.

Pardon my cinicism, i am only a n00b, but how can anyone make a statement that Conflux would rape other town, by comparing individual units, the whole army is like a team, i think the combinatiosn between units that whats is important( e.g. wolf raiders combo with hand-to-hand unit, they attack twice REALLY hard)
well correct me if i am wrong...

I am experienced at HOMM III and I say you can be good with any town if you know how to use them strategically. For ex: fortress is crap unless you use mighty G's. You can beat frozen cliffs with about 20 of them. Any other town would take a lot more creatures. With necropolis, I can beat overwhealmingly more powerful armies with just vamp lords. I think you guys get my drift. Personally, I hate conflux and castle. They can still be good teams though.
