I can't remember if there are bats in the game, or if I might be confused with birds? a bat model would be useful for one of my mods ideas.

Usually no divine vengeance, no Wyngaal or Haggash, no hit&run or mentored kamikazes. There weren't a lot of rules, you basically try to avoid annoying your opponent
PS if you are lucky enough to get both ring of speed and staff of netherworld the game will more than likely be a complete slaughter. Just a warning if you want to have a closer game

She And she is pretty broken, having +20% init to centaurs at lvl 20 plus the att/def bonuses really is too much. It also doesn't help that they are easier to act before chieftains, following which chieftains would make them act again.

Hi, another newbie posting 
Recently me and my friend started playing ToE. We played HoMM3 but werent't really good at this game series.
I was wondering do people still play this?
What quick maps for 1v1 do you recommend (those contained in ToE)?
Do games last really long or we just suck at creeping & time management?
P. S. I play Inferno (Deleb) he is Sylvan (Ossir). So far the score is 1:1 (I won on Disputed Islands, he won on a 4 player map, can't remember the name)

Disputed islands while fun, is a totally imbalanced map First to defeat the phoenixes can get the dragon utopia and other things which pretty much gives him the victory. Also not all factions can take down the phoenixes as fast, I think some can do it as early as week 3.
Anyway ubi maps usually suck, try some of my suggestions in the masterpost of this thread Nothing beats a good custom map by an experienced mapmaker.
And actually.. The better someone is, the more time he takes I've even seen 45 min turns because my opponent took on a bunch of insanely hard fights.. And H5 has a lot of exploits that allow you to take on ridiculous amounts of neutrals.
For that reason I was happy if a multiplayer game would last 6 hours, while the game ended much sooner(usually week 4-6 at most) the turns could be pretty long.

At the moment we are playing The Art of the Strategy. That 4 player map was The Greed.
So far we usually spend a lot of time creeping then meet at the center of map and whoever loses that one fight just surrenders. Is there any point in continuing the game past that point (1 fight with 2 main heroes)?
Anyone interested in games with me? Show me some strats etc.

That depends but usually that is what happens. H5 is already a bit sluggish, not much of a reason to further delay a (mostly)decided game.
I don't think many still play but there are plenty of faction strategy threads around, the table of contents sticky should provide you with links.

I'd be willing to play some other time (would be my first time on-line), sure! Just a warning, I'm a bit of a newb at multi-player, though I do know a few strategies.

Yeah in the 18th century, two inventions suggested a method of measurement. One won and the other stayed in America.

It's 2:1, I won!
He had twice my army but mass confusion made the battle one-sided in my favor.
Is mass confuse a bit op or is there a good way to counter it by Sylvan? (I had his army confused all the time and my army had greater initiative, he never had a turn)

If a light caster plays before a dark one then he is pretty much screwed. But sylvan can certainly overcome mass confusion, with silver unicorns and resistance your arcanes have like 45% chance to resist. Problem is if you get puppeted then your cleansing or magical immunity will be subject to your own 45% resistance

Good choices. Let's see..
Battlezone, Hourglass, Twilight World or Genesis as far as long games go. Personally I despise battlezone for the silly amount of teleporters, hourglass is an epic yet fast paced map, insane if you want to break the middle garrison week 3-4(try it ), twilight world is a reimagining of Moria with amazing eyecandy - you should love it - and genesis is similarly epic map with various routes to the middle and your opponent. I like how it is possible to watch your opponent's progress. For short games try Heritage of Deleb and Rat Race, so much fun and always challenging. A good time to rush the opponent is week 3 though it requires some serious leveling
Just found this post 
Great list of suggestions, I will check them out.

hi, can someone please tell me how to edit HoF maps so that they are completely playable in ToE? i tried to edit in warcries for the barbarian, but they cannot learn them. also i don't think barbarian creatures appear as neutrals and i don't know if the barbarians can get talismans.
or specifically if you can convert the map "anwyl" from maps4heroes to ToE i would appreciate it.
thanks in advance

Just a small quick question from a complete beginner in HoMM5.
I have begun HoMM5 campaign...in the 2nd scenario I have taken the town...Strongbow I think...but although the build list says I have fulfilled the criteria for a tavern, I cannot build one...and not because of a resource shortage.
Why is this?
Edit: It's OK. I guess it's just part of the restrictions of that particular scenario.
