In addition I would like to understand how to play heroes online.is it ubi.com or the other options.when i do ubi.com it asks me something weird ,hot seat is 4 only one computer and I don't understand what the other option is.
Thanks

good walkthrough
The Necromancer
C3M1. The Temptation
If you like to have a massive army, welcome to Necro campaign. I
would suggest to develop Markal early to raise his troops (skeleton
archers) and learn (only) dark magic. Then you should have no
difficulties with this campaign. Mission one is again about
avoiding confrontation against enemy. First you may want to hit the
huts of magi and get some more troops from E. Next it is up to you
to avoid the enemy and to first go up, E and down again and to
underground (visiting hill fort if possible). The end of the
mission is thru underground to the N. What happened to me was that
I captured the underground town from the W, avoided the enemy which
captured the town and garrisoned there. I was able to go to the
surface again and clear the N part of the town. Then back to
underground and N to end of the mission and fight.
Hints
- as said raising skills and dark magic is your friend at least
- hill fort
- remember that every necro troop joins you so take those troops
when possible
C3M2. The Attack
Godric will you again. You can use him or you can develop Markal's
army if you have difficulties with the enemy army. First clear your
island and develop the town. There could be some enemy attacks
which you should counter trying to minimise your losses. When
ready, you should ship with hero(es) and maybe visit that
cartographer to see your enemy. You can go to the E landing point
and take Lorekeep. After that it is just developing Markal and
Godric to be ready to fight the last fight. When Lorekeep is
developed enough, the (easy) way to enemy town is cleared. When
ready, take the enemy town to win the mission.
Hints
- it is not necessary to fight the Titans early, you should come
back and take the exp and artefact when ready
- starting town can have level 5 mage guild (I got Puppet master
from guild which is very useful)
- when you have blindness or other similar spells, you should not
use ballista if not skilled (as uncontrolled ballista wakes blinded
Colossus / Titan for example)
- you may have noticed the importance of the hill fort to save your
money (not upgrading all your buildings).
C3M3. The Invasion
Here you will learn how to build your necro army and towns. You
will have two towns, one necropolis and one haven. I did fine only
using necro units and converting towns and haven troops to necro.
You first task is to explore your island, hitting the hut of magi
as usual to find how your enemies just go mindlessly back and fort.
When ready you should take the three enemy towns. I took the lower
E towns first and left some troops and secondary hero (Isabel)
there as it is possible that NE town will send some troops thru the
one way portal. Also thru middle N is a hill fort which you can
use. Actually after the first (?) town taken elves will send an
army to be you can take and convert to necro troops. It is on ship
coming from the middle of map - the river. You may as well take the
elves with Markal and continue until you see two shipyards. To the
left is the town and some demon land and to the right another town.
Take them and after that explore, make necros to join you as usual.
When ready, you can take go thru those garrisons to the last town.
Take the town and go to the portal which you enemy just took to end
the mission. You should do it this way to avoid any scripting
problems.
Hints
- there are a lot of strong necro troops willing to join Markal
- also use the tools and help to advance your sailing, you will do
it a lot
- there is nothing special in demon land, but on the middle there
are islands which have status boosters
C3M4. The Regicide
You will not see any towns but if you have built your necro hero
right, you will not have any problems to clear this mission. Hit
the hut of magi and follow always the general route opened to you.
It will be complicated route visiting different tents and opening
gates but generally you will do fine following the route. My way to
do the battles was: puppet master (blindness for Titans), raise
dead and phantom forces (you can direct enemy retaliation to these
forces also). When you come back to the middle of map and
underground, it is near the end fight. Actually you can fight the
blocking Titans also, maybe blinding the other stack and using my
tactics to achieve victory. The last fight should be possible to
win if you have enough forces, spells and mana.
Hints
- you have to choose which forces you want to keep. If you take too
many large units, it may be impossible to get them all to the
battle ground
- there is no hill fort so plan your forces according to that
- there is not much to buy so mostly you should take experience
over gold from the treasure chests
C3M5. The Lord of Heresh
The general idea of this mission is as usually to gather a strong
army and attack the enemy. There are some directions to remember. S
of your Necro town there is a hill fort and level up (and possible
enemy army) so clear that area. Also take the resources in the
middle and explore the map. One enemy army can come from the see,
so prepare for that. Also, as Haven troops leave you, you may want
to be evil and turn them to necro or transfer them to other hero
than Isabel. One good way to win the map is acquire angel's wings
by trying to take the prisoner to your necro town. After that you
can fly over mountains to the last fight. Nothing special there if
you have the right spells and a large necro army. Still, prepare
to fight twice.
Hints
- keep a (slow) secondary army near your resources as they are
captured from time to time
- to get a big necro army, use Markal to fight and turn others
troops to necro
creatures

Hello.
To Gus: Quote: "there you go, it's in Dark Magic:"
Sorry Gus, but there is NO SPELL named "Mark of the Necromancer" in the listings for Dark Magic. Are you referring to the 5th level spell "Curse of the Netherworld?"
Could ANYONE tell me where to find this thing?
Hello,
the mark is a spell, but you won't find it by the spell list...
It's a spell that you get by coosing the right ability (the skill you have allready, it's native)...

so i just replayed the first two campaigns of haven and inferno and am now on the necromancy campgin 3rd mission again. The problem is, is the first time i played i wasnt able to go through the portal and in conseuqently deleted my entire campaign (not sure how that worked). then i decided hey maybe a new user name, so i deleted the other one started a new one and flew through the first 2 campaigns and got back to the third necromancy mission. i flew through that again but again had the portal issue. i managed to beat the entire board, clean it out all 5 times i played the mission, so now im really frustrated. if anyone has ANY suggestions as to how to beat this, or any cheats that helps me bypass this mission it would be greatly appreciated.
just as an aside i also have like all the boxes checked so its not a bone dragon thingor skeletons or this or that, its just extremely confusing.
thanks for any help!!!

Then you apparently did not have all of them join or you lost some in battle. I recall the map had over 20 dragons though I could be mistaken.
As for the towns you must enter them with the staff of the netherworld equipped. You'll get a message to convert them for 10k gold though I remember there was a bug and not all could be converted. Hope it's fixed by now.

no angels?
Oh, heck, I'm wondering if this is another irredeemable bug:
Markal picked Freyda up aeons ago, and Isa successfully held one orange hero out of the haven town (I bought troops at the last second to avoid desertions; she's a good defender) while Markal took care of the Orange hero from the southeast...
But no angels ever attacked, so no angels wings ... and the monolith entrance isn't clickable.
Do I have to reload from the fourth part of the campaign and hope I don't keep getting the same bug? Or is Godrick reachable without the wings? (Or is there a cheat to just *give* him the darned things?)

Yeah, I replayed and it worked this time: I think one needs to be careful to go *directly* from the haven city to the necropolis on the road, without, say, veering to the side to kill the champions on the way. Could just be a very small trigger area?
