Winners: Heroes III – Fantasy Lineup Contest

If you are bored these days, I have prepared a simple competition to make it more pleasant. Your task is to compile your dream lineup of creatures from Heroes III. Easy, though? Most popular can win original games from GOG.COM.

  • you can use creatures from Heroes III Complete, Horn of the Abyss and WoG
  • you have to pick only one from each level
  • you can use neutral creatures, except Azure, Crystal, Rust, Faerie dragon, Dracolich and units level 8 from WoG
  • write your lineup in the comments, then I create the graphics as in the picture
  • every lineup will be uploaded to this Facebook album
  • the most popular will be rewarded at the end of April
  • optional: you can add a short description of why you chose these creatures for your fantasy lineup

Voting started. It is not possible to add new lineups.

    Snazil som sa vyberat tak, aby som nemal dve jednotky rovnakeho lvlu, ale aby isli naozaj postupne. Dokonca sa mi podarilo vybrat kazdu jednotku z ineho hradu. Tak isto je kazda jednotka “jednopolickova”.
    Su to jednotky v brneni, resp. zbroji s bojovou zbranou na blizko (mec, sekera, kopia…), taka moja osobna armada. 🙂

    My lineup: Armored Soldiers
    lvl 1: Skeleton Warrior
    lvl 2: Battle Dwarf
    lvl 3: Orc Chieftain
    lvl 4: Crusader
    lvl 5: Minotaur King
    lvl 6: Nix Warrior
    lvl 7: Titan

    Eng. translation:
    I tried not to have 2 units of the same lvl. I even managed to choose each unit from different town. Also each unit takes just one hex.
    Description: All of them are units in armor with melee (close combat) weapon like sword, axe, spear… My personal army. 🙂

    Chtěl jsem hlavně mít dobré range jednotky ale zároveň bez postihů na blízko a k tomu i silný jednotky na blízko (přemýšlel jsem že přidám i Ghost ale to by bylo moc op a Werewolf ale to by byl chaos, ale určitě sranda 😀 ), takhle mi to vyhovuje, je to celkem dost silný, ale co, legie skeletonů to stejně pozabije. 😀
    Lineup:
    1. Santa Gremlin
    2. Wolf Raider
    3. Sea Dog
    4. Lava Sharpshooter
    5. Fangarm
    6. Enchanter
    7. Juggernaut

    EN translation – I wanted to have mainly good range units but without melee penalty and at the same time strong melee units (I was thinking about adding Ghost but that would be too op, and also about Werewolf, but there would be such chaos in the battlefield..on the other hand, it would be fun I bet :D) this lineup suits me well, it is quite strong, but whatever, a legion of skeletons will kill it. 😀 (:

      Nazdar Yogg, ďakujem za lineup, len mám k nemu 2 výhrady 😀 Santa Gremlin je level 2 a Juggyho tie neviem zaradiť do súťaže, lebo nemám jeho štatistiky.Musíš tieto dve jednotky zmeniť.

    2. Storm Elemental
    3. Sea Dog
    4. Vampire lord
    5. Mighty Gorgon
    6. Nightmare
    7. Titan

      Nazdar Sid, rovnako ako Yogg, v tvojom lineupe je Ghost, ktorý je ale level 3, musíš ho niečím nahradiť.

        Omlouvám se, měl jsem za to, že je to jednička podle statů (má je horší než Centaur Captain).

        No v tom případě Centaur Captain nemá konkurenci, tak volím jeho.

    In my opinion, I think there should be more categories / awards. That is, not only the most popular.
