And here is the Mighty Titan, the best shooter unit in the game
And the only one capable of competing against the best unit in the game, the Black Dragon
Titans are strong in every aspect: health, attack, defense, morale and speed
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
This is the Giant, the pre-evolution of the second most powerful unit in the game
Giants have high damage output, high health, and are immune to mind-affecting spells
But generally, it's preferable to wait until their evolution is available, which is truly impressive

I've been a fan of #HOMM2 for decades. The Knight faction is one of my favorites. Thank you for all your amazing art and for keeping those fond memories alive.
And here's the evolution : the Archmage 🧙♂️
More attack, more defense, more speed, and he has 24 shots instead of 12 per battle !
Simply devastating 🔥
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
This is the Mage
Mages constantly study spells, only descending from their high ivory tower to go to the library or the Mages' Guild (and even then, only to study)
They are excellent shooters, although somewhat weak in resistance
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
The Roc is the Wizards' only flying unit and it's quite tanky
Big bird that takes up 2 hexagonal tiles on the battlefield
- I love them, and the enemy ranged units fear them -
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
Here's the evolution of the Iron Golem : The Steel Golem
Faster (or less slow 😅), more HP, and 2 more attack points
They are -very- tanky !
If it's very sunny, you can easily imagine them blinding enemy units with the sun's reflection on their shiny steel bodies
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
Tier 3 Unit: The Iron Golem
They're very slow but very tanky !
And what's more, they only take half damage from elemental spells
That's makes them good units for defending a siege
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
Tier 2 Unit: Boar !
In HoMM2, the hero's movement speed is reduced by the slowest unit accompanying them
Therefore, to explore and cover more distance in a single turn, one strategy is to have no slow creatures in a hero's army
Like only one boar for an scout hero

Let me introduce you to the next faction: The Wizards 🧙♂️
They are the professionals of magical knowledge
They often live in very far away and difficult-to-access regions
Here is their first unit, the Halflings
They live in stone caves or large burrows
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
Hey guys, before posting the next faction, I'd like to know which format you think is best for presenting each of the units ?
I'm wondering if the zoomed-in box detracts too much from readability and if the larger one makes the units too small... Any opinions ?

Heroes of Might and Magic II nauczyła mnie, że strategia to coś więcej niż walka. Każda decyzja miała znaczenie, każda tura – konsekwencje. Mądra, magiczna, ponadczasowa. Gra, która wychowywała przyszłych liderów.

Which creature from the Knight's castle are you ?
Let the lottery begin !
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
And here are all the Knight units finally gathered in their castle !
I heard that one castle has rebelled and raised a new banner claiming the color red and wanting to break free
A hero from the royal guard has been sent to quell this outrage
Let the siege begin !!
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
And finally, here is the Knight Hero himself
Knights are heroes of Might, their stats focus on attack and defense
They start with the secondary skills Leadership and Ballistics
More morale to your troops + makes you excel in the effectiveness of the catapult
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
All factions can hire a Captain to defend during a siege
The Captain provides stat bonuses to creatures and allows you to cast spells !
Here is the Knight version
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
I am also creating a Heroes of Might & Magic 1 ADDON to the #Civilization 2 #HoMM2 mod released at #CivFanatics & #ModDB ! In this bonus addon dev diary we look at changing everything in #Civ2 Gold to feel more #HoMM1 like this time! #Civilization2 www.moddb.com/mods/civiliz...
Here is the Crusader !
Faster, more resistant, immune to curses and deals double damage to undead
Although still weak ( for a tier 6 unit) , they are not very expensive, so they can be useful in the early and mid-game
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
Time for the big armored booyyy ! Here is the Paladin !!
Unfortunately, it's the weakest of the tier 6 units 😖
But we still give them a lot of respect because they look really cool !
(And they attack twice per turn ! - although their stats are still very weak ...
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
Here is the champion ! One of the two fastest units in the game (along with the Phoenix). They have ultra-fast speed, which gives you the initiative to start playing first on the battlefield and gives you a considerable advantage from the very beginning of the fight !
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
Attention ! Prepare the spears ! The charge is coming !
Cavalry is a fast unit (though not as fast as its upgraded version)
#pixelart #픽셀아트 #ドット絵 #HoMM2
The retro Heroes of Might & Magic 2 mod for #Civilization 2 has finally been released at #CivFanatics & #ModDB ! Almost every part of #Civ2 has been changed to feel more #HoMM2 like making this possibly the largest total conversion mod ever made for Civ2 Gold! #Civilization2
