Hi my name is ColdBeer and let’s take a look at the amazing towns and creatures fans
have created for Heroes 3 over the years.
I’ve made a small collection that includes the most interesting and well made towns and
few crazy looking ones as well.
So let’s start with a crazy one.
This is a Zerg town.
Yep, that exists.
Starcraft 1 themed town let’s you recruit zerglings from famous Blizzard game and take
them to battle.
Town is not finished in terms of creatures you can hire here, but it kinda invokes flames
of nostalgia, especially when you hear this music.
And now let’s move on to the city called the Preserve.
Town is animated, it has moving stuff in it and in general it is made really professionally.
But that is just a tip of a dick - Preserve is beautiful not only on the outside, like
you were ten years ago, but from the inside as well, because in this town you can hire
7 new creatures that are really well made and ready for battle.
The amount of work someone put in this town is really incredible.
And this is the Courtyard - a well made whole new faction.
Great artwork, nice animations and of course - various creatures.
Some of them you can upgrade not twice as usual, but three times and get even more powerful
allies that will pillage towns of your adversaries and make them suffer your eternal wrath.
Well, I have to say that this bird called dodo went extinct in the real world because
it was helpless and people just ate them all.
Last one was killed in 1680.
Yeah, so putting this delicious helpless animal in tier five probably isn’t the wisest decision.
Your enemies may eat it as well.
Although as an art object the bird looks cool, along with the other awesome creatures of
the Courtyard.
Welcome to New Grove, another town with a druidish-elfish theme, a bit similar to Preserve,
but this time with a strong purple presence.
Yep, we have no difficulties telling which color is the artist's favorite.
But I still have a question.
Among all these druids, grove keepers and similar stuff - why do you implement spider
queens?
Does it make sense to you?
Anything makes no sense.
Yeah, you have made a great town, gave that town a nice color palette and then... then
added black spiders.
What is wrong with you?
Death Valley is a treat for everyone who likes playing undead and is a fan of necromancy.
This is an alternative town of the dead and it has a bit more creepier vibes than the
original one.
Those plague mummies are terrifying stuff from your nightmares.
Town is made very well, all units are animated and have nice details in general.
I have noticed only one flaw - the upgraded versions of the monsters mostly are just the
same models just with different colors.
And Bone Giant is just an inverted version of himself.
Take a look.
Pew.
Pong.
Pew.
Pong.
Pew.
Pong.
Farriery is a town of various robots and cyborgs.
You may think that it is not lore friendly, but did you know that Heroes of Might and
Magic is not pure fantasy, but also a science-fiction franchise?
I believe that at first it can make no sense to you, but just watch some ending cinematics
of, let’s say, Might and Magic seven or Might and Magic eight RPG games to get a real
grasp of what is going on.
So, apparently these robots from Farriery make sense and I do really like that all of
them look like they were based on horror movies of the late 1980-ies or something.
Highlands
If you love dwarves, search no more, because this is the town dedicated to our little warrior
fellas.
Although if you love boobs instead of dwarves, then I may have not hit the jackpot with this
one for you.
Anyway it looks like most of the models are re-used and redone from the original ones,
but it looks and feels nice anyway.
And I understand that they have put the dragon in the dwarves' town, because you know, dwarves
and dragons unwillingly share the same living space since the times of the Hobbit, but this
dragon seems a bit off.
I don’t know, maybe it’s the color.
Or maybe I’m just too picky and it’s time for me to shut up.
Pavilion
Every lover of ancient Egypt says that this is the best town ever made in the entire Heroes
franchise.
Yeah, I made that up, but it sounds believable, because this town is really great.
Probably the best in this list.
New models with new original animations are spectacular and the town itself is drawn especially
well, because it has all the perspective done right, all the buildings are really detailed
and it also has nice music with real people singing.
And that is the real spirit of Heroes of Might and Magic.
I love it.
Abyss
If you ever had an aquarium you probably know that most of the water creatures hate each
other and try to beat the shit out of the neighbors all the time.
Also your critters tend to die without any reason and float at the surface until you
pick their dead squishy bodies and flush them in the toilet.
So having a whole town of underwater things that live in harmony all together is, you
know...
***. Anyway, these creatures are made really well, I like the color palette and animations.
Although the city itself looks like it was taken from Heroes 4 - It lacks depth and perspective
in general.
Despite that it is one of my favorite towns, I love the oceans and everything in them.
Horde Town
Just like the Zerg town it draws inspiration from the Blizzard game.
This time it’s World of Warcraft, meaning that this town is definitely not lore friendly.
It’s not lore friendly visually as well, because every unit is made using Warcraft’s
3D models and they look 3D as well, which is really not what you expect from the third
Heroes game.
But if you are a fan of the horde or you just don’t care about the friendliness of lore,
this town is one of the most complex ones - you can upgrade your units not once, but
two times, and we all love it
