Do you like playing Homam? Which version do you play? How often do you play it? Do you play in single mode or multiplayer?

Very much!! Heroes of Might and Magic (sometimes called simply Heroes or HoMM) is a series of turn-based computer games developed by New World Computing, a division of The 3DO Company. The games are fantasy-themed strategy conflicts in which characters called heroes have pivotal roles as leaders of armies of mythical creatures such as harpies, unicorns, vampires, and dragons. There are currently five games in the series. All of the games are set in the same fictional universe as the Might and Magic series - except for Heroes of Might and Magic V, which is set in an entirely new world.

Big fan in here ;) It is amazing, isn't it? Now there is the game Dark Messiah of might and magic, althought it shares part of the name, and explains the beggining for heroes of might and magic (homam) it is a completely diferent way of playing the game. This is an RPG. Thought, it is very addictive =P

I love the heroes series. I played the 2,3,4 and I also tried the 5. I remember that the second opus was a revelation for me. How many hours did I play those games ? A couple of days non stop. lol Indeed the 4 was different but I like it. There's another game of this type called "Age of wonders". Do you know it ?

I think it is a good game... speccially cause u play it against your friends using hot seat... I think that's the most addictive part of the game.

One of my favorite PC game series! Enjoy it very much, especially new HoMM5. They are much better than the previous HoMM4, IMHO! :)

It is too long to play in Multiplayer. It's fun to play hot seat though over a period of days.

Yeah, the support hot seat is something that makes HoMM even more popular. I've spend a lot of time playing hot seat HoMM2/3 with my friends.

Well.. they are not that similar. Alghough they are both strategy game, age of mitholgy is Real Time strategy while Heroes of might and magic isn't. However I used to love palying age of mithology as well... specially playing it with my friends on a local network;) Really cool

Of the three Heroes of Might and Magic games i've ever played (II, III, and IV) i'd have to say that the III was the best. you can say that it was like an improved heroes 2 in so many ways, unlike IV which was just...really different. the only reason i've not been able to play the fifth installment is because i've been (beyond, BEYOND) poor lately, so whenever i pass by the PC game shop, i make it a point to look at it and finger my imaginary money in my mind. but of course, even if i could buy it, my silly computer can't read DVDs so...well, it'll be a while before i get to try the damn game out. So, in answer to your other questions: sometimes, i play so often i'm *sure* i've destroyed a good deal of my brain; and sometimes for really long bouts, i don't play at all. but i play at least once every two weeks. and usually single mode. :) Oh, and as a P.S. my sister got really addicted to Heroes 3 and actually made up a few maps of her own with the map editor, with the following themes--Alice in Wonderland, Spongbob Squarepants, and Devil May Cry 3. she even wanted to do one on Prison Break, but that's a long time coming. :)

Well yeaah!!! Heroes of Might and Magic is the game I love to play - especially the part 3 of the series!!! I feel great when win even small battle with my hero and his army, I love to gather more and more monsters into my army, to enlarge my city and capture new ones!!! It's the best game ever for me, but it picks so many time which I haven't so much :)

Hello Dark dog. I have played heroes 2 gold and heroes 3 and loved them both - i spent many hours with them. Heroes 4, i only played for a few days, i liked some new additions, like monsters moving to attack you, and caravans, but overall it looked rather odd for me and i gave up on him. My girlfriend loved 4 however, and we were both happy when i bought the Heroes3+ heroes IV pack and now we have the originals :). I haven't played heroes 5, but as a former employee at Ubisoft i can tell you that heroes 6 looks great - can't get into details because o well, it's classified.

I have played this game from homam2 to homam5... Im not sure why I got addicted to this game but I think it was because I have enjoyed it. I have played it with my brothers, cousin and sometimes in computer cafes... We played homam2 multiplayer hotseat with my brothers and cousins... playing it like this is sorta like playing with maphack XD... oh! since its homam2, you can use cheats even in multiplayer... the 32167 cheat for black dragons were used if one of us is losing. Playing in cafes is sorta different not to mention full players and its homam3. Still love the dungeon castle for the black dragons. I played campaign on Homam 4 and 5 since Im the only one who plays it here and nobody likes to play it anymore.
