my opponent (comp) won because the titans joined him.

Not sure what kind of game u played that time, but it was for sure NOT Homm3. If it is week of the titan, then their growth in town is raised by 5. Level 7 creatures will never be spread all over the map, like it happens with level 1-4 creatures. That's why it says: "Week of the Titan, weekly growth +5", and on the other hand: "Week of the Harpy, weekly production is doubled".
This was different in Homm2 though...

The most annoying thing in HoMM3 is the music, that plays when the combat screen opens. It was ok the first 10.000 times, but now it isn't any more. It takes 2 or 3 seconds, which is more than I want to wait for the combat to start. It can only be turned off by switching off all sound, but I really dislike playing a game without sound.

@mamgaeater: You make little sense. Its not possible to have double rocpopulation. I believe that the strongest creature that can double is pegasis. Griffins is pretty common too. Maybe it was one of those that doubled in your game?

Most annoying - passing the army and artifacts trough 7 heroes to main. Its really boring. In TE this problem is solved, but in TE new annoying things appear.

One of the two reasons, why I don't play MP. I dislike the chaining, and one of my personal rules is, not to chain units and Arts. I doubt I could win anything in MP with this playstyle
@double creatures. I think I have seen unicorns spread out all over the map. Maybe this was possible in early versions, and fixed later?
Or maybe it depends on the unit, not on the level? I have never seen the month of the Evil Eye, and I play alot.

Not all monsters are possible to get named "week of the..., production doubled"...but for sure only monsters from level 1 to level 4.

The ones I recall are gremlins, trogs, centauers, harpies, gogs, wolfs, lizards, flies, wights, griffens, pegasis.
There are probably a few more.

High Level Creatures have "month of"
and the others "week of"
thats why week of the dragon most of the times do not appear in an online game.

some annoying things to add:
- spells in pandora when u have no wisdom or book
some annoying things to remove:
Quote:
- the absolutely most annoying thing is spelled: morale - i dont think anything so "small" has messed up so many fights.
Fixed. In TE version is possible to set "No moral for neutral guards". However i personally think that this damn stupid moral brings some fresh feelings and exitement into the game  and i don't switch it off normally
Quote:
- and the chest off course consists of a eagle eye artifact...
Fixed. In TE version chests never contain artifacts...cool
Quote:
When you fully defeat a big enemy hero, and they hire him back in a week!
Fixed. In TE version heroes lose experience, skills and magic when they die.
Quote:
Week of the plague strikes and you couldn't afford to buy many of the creatures anyway.
Fixed. In TE version there are no weekly/monthly bonuses or plague.
Quote:
Having traded everything to get angels week 2 and then seeing time run out the ecsact moment you push the button to build them.
Fixed. In TE version there is more smart time management system, so you can't run out of time normally...

Fixed. Even in SOD u can switch off combat-starting sound, just add silent files battle00.wav - battle06.wav (e.g. from here ) however when opponent attacks you, u will not hear this too...

About Month of and Week of creatures, I ran some tests. I went 100 months and wrote down all the creatures, plague, etc.
Week of creatures can be anything, but I never saw any expansion creatures (except Confulx). They could be upgraded or not. I got a total of 62 different creatures (counting upgrades) plus 15 repeats for a total of 77 week of creatures out of 300 weeks. That means getting week of creatures about 25% of the time.
Month of creatures were level 1-4. They were always un-upgraded, but had the same chance of one stack being uypgraded like any wondering creature. I got creatures 34 out of 100 months. And I got plague 12 out of 100.
I got the following Month of creatures:
Trog
Wight
Griffin
Serp Fly
Grem
Cent
Hobgoblin
Wolf Rider
Pegesis
Lizard
Gog
