I would have understood if you preferred H2 or H3, they are really great themes but H5 was too repetetive imho and inferior to the H4 theme.

Marzhin said: The terrain music of Heroes IV is great, even if it should be said Rob & Paul "cheated" a bit and simply reused pre-arranged tracks from The Complete Celt sample collection. (You can hear the original samples on this page, by scrolling down to the "Complete Celt" items.)
Wait, what is this? I absolutely adore the Celtic music of Heroes 4, and I always presumed they were composed by Romero-King. Did they just take them from here? That's disappointing...

Dave_Jame said: Am I the only one, who doesn't understand why the Spiders are Undead? Do they kill and rase them again?
I'm confused too. Although I was the one who screamed "make them Undead or Necropolis is ruined". Undead Spider is kinda nonsense.
Do you question the fact that Namtaru are Undead?
Cause we can read that it is theorised by some Necromancers, that these spiders are larval Namtaru.

Well the music is still great Just not really composed by Rob & Paul (who did compose the town themes and the rest of the soundtrack, however).
The Complete Celt samples have been quite popular among composers, it seems. They are also used by other games like Black & White 2, an anime called Twelve Kingdoms, and more recently they could be heard in the preview tracks of The Witcher 3.
I even found a CD of ambient celtic music that is basically the H4 terrain themes with sea sounds on top. Very relaxing -- if you don't mind seagulls

Actually I find H4 Infernopolis to be quite repetitive
PLEASE DON'T HURT ME!

To be fair, when I first played H5, I didn't paid much attention to Necropolis theme, but with time it has grown on me a lot

Marzhin, destroyer of dreams
I already knew of that (thanks to Elvin), but I still think it made for excellent ambient music for the different terrains, I wouldn't change them any day

I'm pretty sure they are larval Vampires. Then again I'm pretty sure that blcak dragons are vampires as well...

It's good..for the first minute and then repeats itself.

I have a pro-tip for all of us. It is a game, a fantasy game, with a quite convoluted lore and for our own security and mental health we shouldn't wonder about it for too long. Otherwise we will start another discussion about sex in Necropolis...

Well, Namtaru seem more like spirits of Death, but yeah, they're Undead.
But that's just a theory. Maybe those Necromancers made a mistake...
Ah, ok, you convinced me ^^

Vein is boning Anastasia, and they weren't lovers or married in life... zombie bride
At least the music is good because Rob and Paul made it since the beginning, but why didn't they more old employees? Ubi would satisfy his greed and we would get a good game

Blah, twilight romance made by Erwan. Festering gonads and vampires copulating for eternity Well, in medieval folklore, the semen dripping from hanged men was believed to create mandrakes, so maybe all that green in Ashan Necropolis comes from vampires jerking off
