How does a person remove troops they do not want?

Moon Weeks
In all the previous HOMMs, the moon weeks were random, and if you got a really bad week, you could reload and get a better week. In HOMM5 the weeks seem to be planned. If I get a really bad week (i.e. Plague), that same week continues to appear no matter how many times I reload. If the randomness of moon weeks has indeed been removed, does anyone know where to get a chronology? It sure would be nice to know if a plague or other such type week is around the corner so preparations can be made to avoid losing all you've worked for. Thanks.

Nope they are totally random(chronologically) and that is the point. Have you tried restarting to see if you get another week? Seems to work with the skills when I get a disconnection and reload.

Do you mean reloading the game? If so, I've done that numerous times and keep coming up with the same week. I don't know if it happens with every week or just the special ones, such as plague or creature weeks. This most recent experience is Hellhound--No matter how many times I reload, I still get Hellhound. The first time I was aware of this, it was Plague.
Did you mean restarting the mission itself? I'd need to replay the mission a couple of times and keep track of the weeks.

Restarting the mission or quit and restart the game.

I've restarted the mission twice since my last post. Each week is, indeed, random. Yet once the computer chooses it as the next one up, it remains the next one up no matter how many times you reload. I even saved "test" files on days 6 and day 5. Results were the same. Once I start a week, no matter how many times I reload, whether from day 7, 6, or 5, it still comes up with whatever was the choice the very first time I reached a new week. There must be some kind of code in the game that does this, perhaps to prevent getting any advantage from reloading to get a better week. Keeps the game more balanced, I guess. I think I'll see what happens if I actually close the whole game and then reload.

I told you, restarting the game - not reloading. It makes skills in lvl ups random again so it may do the same with weeks.

Makes no difference. Oh well...
Next question--I've found two rings of lightning protection. Do I still get 50% protection from lightning-based spells, or do I get 50% from each ring, making me 100% immune?

Never tried that tbh I doubt you get 100% protection but since you have them try and post back, I'd be interested to know.

Limit a search to a forum
Is there a way to limit a search to a particular forum (or small set of forums)? I've tried various things, but none of them work.

Afaik that's not possible with the HC search engine, but you can still use other sites for your search. For example, to search for the questions topic in the temple of ashan forum you could type this in google:
site:heroescommunity.com "Heroes 5 - Temple of Ashan" questions topic
try it
site: ... restricts your search to HC and "temple of ashan" will be sufficient to show primarily posts in that forum.
edit: Remember you won't always get an up to date search with google, but for older topics it should be enough

True, but not in as nice a format as the search from the HC site provides.
and then there is also the fact that

If the HC search engine allowed for such a restriction, it would be quite nice. Seems as it could be easily added by allowing the search index to include the forum title.
BTW -- I looked for a forum where web site suggestions might be appropriate and more on topic, but did not see one. Did I miss it?

Yes try the Turban Tribunal. I think there are two threads for improving the site.

Elvin,
I've finished that mission and no one ever used an electrical attack on me. The demons seem to use mainly fire. Perhaps someone else has experienced a double artifact and can tell if the effect doubles or not.
I have another question,though. In the first Godric mission, "Fall of the King", demons twice exit portals to attack my castle. Why do they flee the battlefield? It doesn't matter if I battle them inside or outside the castle, or even if I am sorely overwelmed (I could have 1 peasant!)...they still flee. Why not give us the challange, isn't that the point of the game?

They never did that with me, none of the 3-4 times I've played the map.

I've replayed that same mission 3 times (only completed once. I'm on the 3rd retry now) and it's always the same--they run away. Has anyone else come across this? I have all 5 patches installed. This is very annoying as you get all psyched out for battle and then nothing.

Easy. I've used some cheats to bulk up my characters, but I can't see that interfering when the enemy is still so much stronger.
I'm at the very end now. From reading the posts here, Isabell is supposed to defend the castle against Agrael after Godric goes through the portal. I've had her there waiting, but when Nickolai comes through, Agrael goes straight for him. How am I supposed to get a message to him? I've tried being in between where they will meet before Nicolai shows up. Then when he comes through, I try to "get a message" to him by giving him troops. The cut scene still comes up without any battle and I'm given no chance to see if the "get a message" objective gets checked.

You never deliver that message. No point playing campaigns on easy and expect a challenge. Normal at worst which is pretty easy too.
