HoMM III: The Board Game – Community Stretch Goal Reminder
Next on the docket is to show off the Unit cards that will be coming with the new expansions as well as a brief breakdown of what each faction will play like. So without any further ado, take a look at these cards.
I’m sure you’re all asking yourselves “what does it all mean?” well, allow me to explain: Stronghold; The Units and Heroes in this faction will focus predominantly on attacking, making them ideal for the more aggressive player. As you can see below most of the Stronghold unit’s special abilities focus on attacks. For example, if you manipulate the initiative of your units, then the Ogres ability can be your strongest weapon. Imagine Wolf Raiders performing 2 attacks with a +2 Attack bonus, Scary stuff.
Conflux: Magic and elemental enhancements are these guys’ bread and butter, increase the effectiveness of your spells and conjure your way to victory. Elemental units in this faction can change the way you use spells. The Pack version of a unit can increase your Spell power if you use a spell during their turn. Will you wait to gain a specific bonus or blast a spell at the start of Combat, the choice is yours.
Cove: This faction is the more balanced of the three, with a dizzying array of effects and abilities; such as the ability to reduce enemy damage, poison them, or even have a double attack. Here is where you can find almost every type of ability. There are dangerous ranged units that can hit without taking a retaliation attack and can even ignore the combat penalty. Additionally, you can spend coins to change the result of your dice rolls.
So, which faction piques your interest? Which one will you try out first? Remember that all units are still WIP, so some abilities and statistics may vary from the final product.
Once again, thank you ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls for joining us on this update, we hope to chat with you in the comment section, Facebook, Reddit, Discord, and all of the places where you can find us online.
But until then…cheerio
