It takes you to a hidden treasure room part of the Dragons Lair, so i doubt you found that room since you gotta know where to look and tp some distance through a wall, if i remember correctly.

Yes this is a must for MM6.
Also i should tip you of this site with mods for the earlier MM games:

Thanks, but I'd rather stick with vanilla, particularly with my first playthrough. I am almost done with Xeen anyway, today I fought Alamar (or rather, Corak did). Just gotta connect the two worlds now.
with regards to that 'monster respawn' in the mod, I think the ability to clear out entire areas from non-respawning enemies is one of the most motivating features of M&M, I would really not want to mod that out.
Doesn't this destroy the balance completely? More enemies = more xp = even more overpowered PCs at the end of the game, probably even earlier now.
Never give a djinn your password on RPG Codex or your account will get taken away too!
Don't know. I just tested it briefly and quickly realized that since the combat in MM3-5 is so simplistic the last thing I really needed was more enemies. IIRC he adjusted some of the monster stats, so maybe the XP value as well.
Also, there were other changes that annoyed me a bit, like changing the name of some character classes.

Like half the xp and most of the gold/treasure in MM3-5 comes from quests and shit anyways. More monsters is really just more tedium, because killing monsters is pretty much always profitable, but not profitable enough to be worthwhile.
The monsters are there to make some areas more dangerous than others, so you have a sense of progression as you explore, instead of arbitrarilly hoovering up whatever you want from the start.

More WIP Sheltems for the WIP Sheltem god.
Ah, i see you know of that Ironfist project for HoMM2
The recent developments on the 7th faction for Heroes of Might and Magic II: The Cyborg.
The main idea of the faction is to create a mixture of unreleased Heroes 3 Forge town with a tribute to the old school Might and Magic series.
So that, the concept of the Cyborg faction will be different than the "classic" Heroes 3 Forge, but still can have some similarities with it.
The campaign story related with the new faction is being developed, as well as the lineup and some unique features for this class.
MORE INFO ON THE IRONFIST WIKI
Please note: all graphics are considered WIP (Work In Progress) until further notice.
The castle on the global map replicates the classic Forge concept with some tweaks due to the different Heroes II castle exterior designs.
The faction exterior is based on Sheltem the Dark, the main antagonist of Might and Magic 3-4-5 games by New World Computing.
The heroes originate from Might and Magic 3 (the portraits of other 5 will be created later), and the castle icon also replicates the classic Forge castle concept.

No, real life got in the way. I've been too busy in the past few months and I'm currently trying to finish my Dune LP.
However, I do plan to take on MM2 in the future and I'll make sure to post my findings in this thread.

I did like the idea of recruiting NPC's in 8. It could have been implemented better, with half of your characters player-generated, and two additional slots for recruits, perhaps gained through questing, and with unique abilities. Recruitable NPC's would have made the whole bit more interesting.
MMX simply didn't receive enough marketing, my take. And in the same manner as Alice: MR, reviewers panned it for baseless reasons. It is a damned lawnmower game, at least it seemed balanced. Such games aren't destined to received much personality, especially since this is a revival after far too many years of silence between renditions. More DLC would have been welcome.
Whoever mentioned game length was correct, it was almost perfect in scope, because eventually ennui would have been an issue, had the game commenced. In some ways, the DLC detracted from the initial experience, and seemed superfluous. Also, procedural generating MUST become the future of such blobbers, with grid-based movement.

More specifically, the first 5 games. While I'm not doing a comprehensive search, all I'm finding are just the years each of those games were released in. What I'm looking for is a more exact date.

The first platform release, yes. The exact day isn't necessary, just something more specific than a year is what I'm looking for.
