Correction note (thank you Archon Studios team for checking our video):
*After the attack, Magogs (unit from Inferto expansion) must attack a unit with their special skill - if there is no enemy within range, they will hit an ally from their own army. They ignored it because it wasn't applicable.
*Correction: retreating from combat against neutral units may be done only at the end of a combat round, not in the middle of a combat round.
Hope you enjoy our playthrough video, give you an idea of how the game plays. Publisher may corrected or clarified the rulebook along the way, so what you see here might differe, thank you for your patience.

"Just gonna skip through to get a feel of it..." 2,5h later "Man where's my kickstarter already??"

[@MeepleUniversity]

Hahahah. 😍. Hopefully soon

[@jacobgrzanka3014]

Magogs do friendly fire - similar to Leeches, Stellas creatures should be hurt when they are adjacent units to the attacked one (if there are more than one adjacent attacker choose who will be hurt)

[@TyphonLeTitan]

You are right, althought it is not the end of the world 😂 especially for the purpose of the video. These guys learned hundreds of board games.

[@MammaSomari]

35:45 You don't ever get to see what map tiles you were dealt until you are about to place one. You just draw the top one randomly without looking.

[@TyphonLeTitan]

True but it is a minor detail.

[@zacinc6687]

Bingo, that's what simulates fog of war from the video game. You don't know what's out there until you explore it. Defintely one of the coolest ways they transferred a mechanic onto a board game.

[@rogadip]

Yep, this.

[@Hscaper]

I actually love when one of you makes a mistake and points it out with the solution because we all operate that way and seeing real life oversights helps us remember that we can or can’t do something when we are playing.

[@MeepleUniversity]

We are all human, thank you for understanding. Hope you are well.

[@CropKroco]

Great video, few missplays but still great. Could you make 2nd video with other scenario and with our beloved Fortress and maybe Tower or Necro? I would love to see this duel

[@joshwhite1562]

I loved watching an actual game playthrough. Personally, I would love to see another playthrough with maybe Castle and Tower playing the cooperative mode with the full battle map. It looks just like the video game! I will cross my fingers that you can post a video with one or two of these ideas. Thanks for the great videos so far!

[@MeepleUniversity]

Thanks so much!

[@mateuszniedziela5484]

Wow, very nice game - I want to play it!

[@csabaidonat]

Great content, I loved how you presented the game! Still, some corrections: around 1h 55m, when you fight against that Level VI opponent. a) You forgot the Cerberies special ability (damage an adjacent opponent by 1 damage) and b) after you retreat, you should have returned back to the field where you were before engaging the battle. This (retreating rule) was also applicable in a few cases in the later stages of the game. That also means you cannot go through a field where there is a neutral opponent you can't defeat. Around 2h 10m, if your secondary hero is defeated, you need to remove it from board, but you can recruit it again for 10 golds. In the final battle around 2:25, when you attack with the Gold Dragon, since the Gold Dragon attacks 2 spaces in a line, I think besides the wall, Pack Pit Lords should have been damaged as well with an attack skill of 2. Later, in the final battle Magogs could also have damaged Unicorns when they selected the Gold Dragon as their primary target (as unicorns were an adjacent unit next to the target). And around 2:32 unicorns shouldn't have been able to retaliate the Cerberies, as Cerberies ignore retaliation.

[@TyphonLeTitan]

Seriously, I understand why you are saying all of this, but it is useless. These guys are there to show people what a game looks like to actually help people decide if they have to buy it, and you are there trying to point out some insignificant mistakes. This is not a tournament. And you are not the first one here to do this. Anyway, what I mean is that probably you had good intension with this but the reality is that it is not helping anyone.

[@csabaidonat]

@@TyphonLeTitan I am pointing this out because of those people who probably watch this to learn the gameplay. Would be good to take this minor mistakes into consideration.

[@TyphonLeTitan]

@@csabaidonat Yeah I know that it is your purpose. But like I said it doesn't really help. People come here to know what a game looks like, not to learn every single rules, for this you have the manuals and the QandA document available with the game. Furthermore, people will not read every single comment here to pick comments about the rules. No. Of course you are free to do so but I think it is pointless, especially because many of you is doing this. PS: next time, use the format hour:minutes:seconds if you want that people can watch directly what you are talking about :).

[@Bandibo87]

Szia! Neked esetleg már megjött a játék? Tudom hogy easyn játszottak, de tényleg nagyon könnyűnek tűnik így, van esetleg tapasztalatod? A másik kérdésem pedig, hogy annak ellenére hogy easyn játszottak a 10.körig 7es szintű szörny meg sem jelent, az infernonál még efret szultán se. A játék elméletileg 14 körig mehet. Pack 7-es szintű szörnyet nem is nagyon fogunk látni egy nehezebb fokozaton?

[@csabaidonat]

@@Bandibo87 szia! Én wave 2-ben vagyok, úgyhogy júniusra várható kb a játék. A szörnyek kapcsán szerintem erősen függ az adott pályától, de igen, minél nehezebb fokozaton játszod, annál nehezebb lesz összeszedni az erőforrást a magasabb szintű lényekhez.

[@epperton]

Looks so fun. Can’t wait for my copy to get here!!

It really has a feeling of that old computer game. I appreciate that. Thanks for sharing your gameplay.

[@MeepleUniversity]

It does! 🙏 Thanks so much

[@Anor999]

Thanks for the video. I find it impresssive that it seems that you played a game with (mostly I guess) random dice rolls and card draws and still managed to show a diverse and representative example of a heroes game. It felt quite natural and unscripted, yet still well organized and informative : )

[@MeepleUniversity]

Thank you so much for your kind words 🙏🙏

[@MammaSomari]

1:19:26 This is the wrong timing for playing Weakness. You are supposed to use it when a unit is about to attack. The card would have an on-going symbol if it was meant to be cast until it is triggered or to last any longer than the duration of a single attack.

[@TyphonLeTitan]

You are right, but will you guys try to find all mistakes or what? I mean, it is useless to do so. Furthermore the mistake was minor and didn't change a single thing.

[@TyphonLeTitan]

I realized that they actually play spells the same way the pc games works, so they play spells when there's a friendly unit that activate, that is why they did this.

[@siriactuallysara]

I am very impressed on how easy this game is to follow and watch. This game exceeds my expectations. I ordered it on KS and now I’m really looking forward to playing it. Looks really good

[@TyphonLeTitan]

Glad you are not part of those complaining that it is not an exact copy of the pc game 👍🏻

Thank you for this gameplay video!! After watching it I can firmly say that i love this game!! Are you planning to make also a “solo/coop” gameplay?

[@MeepleUniversity]

Thanks so much! Not the current plan, but you never know :D

[@rogadip]

Really great video, I enjoyed it a lot. But there was some mistakes made, even crucial ones. 1) Stella forgot the long range penalty pretty much every time. 2) Steve (edit: Tarrant) always forgot Elves Pack ability whereyou get a 2nd attack if you roll a -1 or a 0, at one point he had to spend a movement point to extend the combat uncessarily because he forgot about this. 3) Choosing to attack with 2nd hero to protect main one made no sense at all. How was he supposed ot protect it? He should have attacked with the main so he could play with cards, that made potentially a big difference. 4) When you army is wiped out (happened after peasnt wa killed) you get back your starting army for free, something Steve also forgot. That could have mattered quite a bit for the end battle. 5) After main hero lost his grail, starting in home town again, he should have moved it to where he moved the secondary hero. That way he'd always been able to catch up with Stella at any time insteadof having to fight the siege battle. Together with #4, having a bigger army, I think that could have turned the tide.

[@pastuh]

Thats why we need live AI game instructor

[@MeepleUniversity]

Hello, thank you for the feedback. And we have in mind the aim of the video is less strategy, and more trying to show how different things work. Also is Steve = Tarrant? 😆 I feel like I married a Tarrant and not a Steve lol Cheers. Stella.

[@sagittariusa9012]

He also forgot that ranged also have +2 speed because of arrow card right 1 sec after he read it :)

[@pastuh]

The fact that you cannot run from a fight until the round is over is very significant..

[@rogadip]

[@MeepleUniversity]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@separi100]

Great video! Thanks for your work! Can you discard any number of cards from your hand during your turn to your discard pile and draw that many cards back to your hand? I understood it is only moral action and you need to spend a moral token. It sound a bit weird atleast since necromancer (ignoring moral) can draw two cards from m&m deck and discard same amount.

[@TyphonLeTitan]

I'm not sure to understand your question. Right at the beginning of your turn, but only there, you can discard any number of cards in your hand to draw cards to your hand limit. There's of course, many other ways to draw cards and discard cards during a turn using cards effects. Is there something else that you want to know?

[@separi100]

@@TyphonLeTitan And then I found the rulebook.. my bad, I wasn't aware it can be done in multiple cases 😅

[@apollolinaire2607]

One question about the combat at 1:35:20 : Wouldn't the Pegasi play before the Cantaurs as they are Silver Units? I thought I heard that when it comes to initiative, when two units of a same army have to play and share the same initiative, then the Rarity dictates which one plays first? That might have been removed in the final rulebook though, as I see that battle prep also changed (for the better) but I'm curious.

[@TyphonLeTitan]

I don't know what was the rule before, but in the final rulebook you actually choose which one go first. Then if the oponent have one with the same, it activates and then your second creature with the same initiative.

[@krikukiks]

1:27:36 The rules say: "Population Token, used to Recruit and Reinforce Units or to Recruit a Secondary Hero" Seems like you have to choose one. Also found the same question in "Astrologers answer" book and it confirms it

[@TyphonLeTitan]

Yeah this one is not clear at all in the rulebook. They confirmed latter on that you have to chose.

[@MrObsidian23]

This just arrived. I have all th expansions. Thanks for the how to play demo. Much appreciated. Looking forward to playing. After the big battle in turn 10 where the Cerberi attacked the champions, did u forget the special ability to damage the two other enemies beside them?

[@TyphonLeTitan]

Yeah they forgot :)

[@joshwhite1562]

This was so fun! I thoroughly enjoyed watching and will definitely know more of what to expect when I play with my Grail Pledge. Will definitely have to get Inferno, Stronghold, and Conflux at some point when all three are available. Does anyone know if these will be available in the states eventually or will it be another six month delay shipping from Poland again?

[@MeepleUniversity]

Thanks so much. I've just added the link in the description from the publisher where peeps can get the game from. Hope it helps.

[@paveldvorak915]

In first Stellas combat i think she had to spend another movement point to fight another round of combat, and in first Tarrants combat you should roll 2 dices on elves attack and resolve lower one, since you shoot from backline to backline so you get "combat penalty"... Please confirm this I wanna know... Ill keep watching the rest of the video now =)

[@jacobgrzanka3014]

Guys! So what is the best strategy for this particular scenario? Fighting for Grail will make your army weak and the opponent will attack you in his/her next round to take it over. Do you think going for grail as first player is good or bad strategy? And why? 🤔Thanks! 🧙‍♂️🧝‍♂️🧟‍♂️😇😈🐲🧀

At 59:23 the elves should shoot again because of the "-1" on the Attack Die, right?

[@RomanRiedl-qu9hr]

At the first battle (13:32 ) it’s a neutral meele unit in the last row- I thought only ranged units are positioned in the last rows when the fights starts ?!

[@quarin8394]

[@qwertzy321]

I sadly never saw the kickstarter, I would LOVE the full version of the game, is it in your opinion worth playing just the "base" version of the game?

[@MeepleUniversity]

Probably try the base game first, see if it's for you? 🙏

[@caiturn6965]

Do might and magic cards that increase the stats of a creature only last until the end of the attack, the combat round, or the whole battle?

[@TyphonLeTitan]

Until the end of the attack (or defense) only. There's some exeptions but it is said on the card :)

[@michaelgoldenthal1818]

Together with your 10 rule series it was quite a work, wasnt it ?And you have to understand it all yourself. It looks like you like it ! I am a huge fan of the evergreen Heroes 3, play it at least one time in the year one basic or addon. i discovered it just last week at a website of a shop who advertises for preorders of the retail version. After i took a look at the photos and saw that it was really the graphics of Heroes 3, i was totally enthusiastic. But that did not keep long. Though i am still happy that this game exist, i will make a remake if it. I will tell you why. Soon i noticed, that a lot is missing. No ocean with ships and wreckages, no subterrain, only one charactersheet (or 2 in addons), cities under 50% of content, misses like market place and resource silo, no advanced unit generators and advanced units ! No wood, sulfur, mercury, gem resources and mines, treasures, spells and skills not only thrown into one deck to draw a lilltle cards from, but additionally total mismatched content, and so on. Reading the rules at Archon downloads was a horror of " Oh No ! " The game could have been done so much better. It looks like the developers feared Heroes 3 , they cutted and misses as much as they can. making it small and short in time. really nothing is original. That is the wrong way, because Heroes 3 gamers are used to very long game sessions. I guess many of them will be disappointed like me. So this is my critics. There is more, but thats enough. You dont need to adapt the critics, especially if you are no Heroes 3 gamer. But i am. To me it is not a game like any other. Not one for two weeks, then going to the next one. It should have been as great as the pc game. but it is just a copy of mage knight with a seductive title. Goodbye and have fun.

[@TyphonLeTitan]

You are wrong mate. I will not explain you why because you will clearely not understand, but you are wrong let me tell you.

@@pastuh it is not even worth it to answer this dude. He don't know a single thing how a board game should work.

[@ondrejjanosik5114]

Safe to say this was bought predominantly by the players of the PC version and given the online comments, reception was strongly positive!

[@juan4aigle]

During the first battle, didn’t Stella need to spend an extra movement token for not defeating the neutral enemies in one round? Edit: my bad, it all happened in one round actually)

[@MeepleUniversity]

Pretty sure I did? :D

[@juan4aigle]

@University I think you didn't. You spent one move to leave the castle and enter the field to fight the neutral unit. Another movement point to go to the adjacent field and rolled the die for resources, and then you spent the last movement to go back to the castle (19:50). You should have spent a second movement in the fight, and your last move would have been going to the field for the resources (at least this is how I understood the rules, that I learned watching your rules video :D )

13:32 I think Rouges here should be placed in second row as manual states "Place any Ground and/or Flying units along the second row of the Combat board..."

[@MammaSomari]

That rule only applies to co-op and campaign unit setup. In player vs player scenarios, the enemy player who controls the neutrals determines their placement, but ranged units must be placed into the back row.

[@henioPL98]

Thanks for correcting me :D @@MammaSomari . It clearly states as you say "In a Clash mode or an Alliance mode, the player who completed their turn last is the player who freely deploys and commands the Neutral units during a Combat. So, the beneath deployment rules are only the reference, not the obligation for them."

[@christianmannsbart4074]

I love the design of the game. But battles seem to be pretty boring? Looks tactically pretty limited to me. Or am I the only one?

I don't think you are the only one, but from what I have seen, people like it. And there's the battlefield expansion if you want combats that look similar to the pc game.

[@MeepleUniversity]

Hahaha no problems. Thank you for your kind words🙏🙏🙏

[@Just4Fteam]

Correct me if Im wrong but I think first round played by Stella was done incorrectly when it comes to movement points. It is 1 move point to move from castle to mines. 1 move point to explore location that you are standing on (triggering a battle) 1 move point to extend the fight cause it was not won in first round. That sums up to 3 points meaning her turn should be over after her battle. Maybe you correct this later in video but Im only 25 min in. Great content anyways! Your initial tutorial were great. Much better than going through 40 pages of instruction.

What? The first round played by stella was totally fine. It is 1 movement point to go to the mine and it triggered the combat imediately. You do not need to spend one additional movement point for this. The case when you need to spend a movement point is when you are already on an emplacement that you want to visit again, on a revisitable point of interest for example. Then the first battle was won in one turn. Are you sure you are talking about the first round?

Thank you 🙏. I remember in one of the rounds I mistakenly not spending another combat point for 2nd round of neutral battle. Must be too excited for battle 😂

seeing all those expansions in just the first 2 minutes convinced me not to buy the game lol

I bought it and the expansions is what really opens up the game to features that make it worthwhile. The battlefield one gives you the traditional HOMM3 fighting map instead of the card board. Base game works but you’ll want the others, at least battlefield.

Is the best game ever!

The expansions made me buy the game. It needs all 8 main factions to feel complete to me after my childhood playing the video game.

[@OMLose]

Yaaa, all factions, waiting for stronghold 😊

This game would be fun for anyone, but is mostly for hard core fans of a 25 year old video game. If we've lasted this long, we're going to buy every bit of every expansion and be happy to figure out a complex rulebook. But it's understandable for anyone who doesn't want to commit financially or put in the time. But I'm here for every penny and every second. 😂
