Apart from better graphics (debatable of course), the one big advantage II has is the non retarded-economics. In III it's waaaaay to easy to be swimming on gold, even starting on the impossible difficulty level. On normal the game has no sense, you can just build everything one after another and have to literally be retarded to have any problems.To be fair, auto-combat-moat-free-attack (or whatever we should call it) sounds like a glitch. Also, I don't think it's just AI units that can move into the moat and attack, if it's like in III, they have to be defenders in castle.
No, I've tested it. AI controlled units can enter the moat and attack the defenders when attacking a castle. For a human player that is not an option; you can only move into the moat, but not attack even if ending right next to an enemy unit.
For the defenders it very rarely is a good idea to enter the moat and attack the other way, so I haven't tested how that works, but I can't imagine it being different.
Another annoying thing is that as defender you can only reach the end of the drawbridge if sallying out the main gate, no matter how many movement points your non-flying units have.
HoMM 3 was definitely a huge improvement over HoMM 2.
Yes, it was (gameplay wise). 2 has its charms though, maybe nice looking cartoony sprites and castles. Not saying 3 is is bad, just different. I prefer the look of 3's maps definitely, with all its small details and charm. Combat screen wise, I'm not so sure, I think 2 wins there, it has prettier combat backgrounds and maybe characters, but only by a notch.
Sorry for the rant, nostalgia got me.
I'm your alt.Your gimmick of posting screenshots of games the Codex would shit on is becoming pretty tiring. Then there's the fact than you've got an oblivion avatar... whose alt are you?

Chinese Paladin 1 (A.K.A. Legend of the Swordsman and Fairy):
This game is awesome, a fucking shame that no one knows about it. The battle art is great, and is full of details, like how a powerful attack will permanelty scar the ground... and the music is really good.

For all the "OMG HOW AMAZING" comments I have read about that Infamous game it really doesn't look a hell of a lot better than a PC version from the last few years. At least in pictures it doesn't.
It took me hours to find it, the only remaining link to this is from a russian guy that made a torrent with everything inside and posted it here: http://chinesepaladin.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=3&p=12358Looks damn good, where do I get a hold of it?

Shitty generic everything design
Apparently they already have.I wonder when game designers and filmmakers are going to run into that wall that they can't make any more spaceships because someone's already done them all
