You cannot imagine how much I waited for this.
Same!!!
Yeah! It's finally here 😊
Saaaammmmmmmeeeeeee
Same. I'm so excited I wish I could wet my pants.
But I am a adult, and such things are not wise.
We can cause most of us did;)
16:14 "men of the sea" teehee
Impressively quick thinking on Noro's part 😅 !
Sperm Whale Hunters was also an option.
Hahaha
LETS GOOO FACTORY SERIES! I really appreciate your narration in these videos, it's always clear what you're thinking!
I like how as soon as you start taking out loans from the bank, you start complaining about lack of income. Very realistic. 10/10
The 'Men of the Sea'! They've returned!
Thank you very much for the great Work! Your content has already entertained me for so many Hours. Please keep it up.
Thanks so much!
16:13 And that is what we call a pro play.
I think norovo's excitement for the armadillos is merely a cover for him to commit mass genocide against the species. How many times did we see him "defend" when he could have saved an armadillo. I think we can see the pecking order in his armies.
Well, they're there to die so that better people can live :-)
🎉🎉🎉 I am so happy to see a new homm3 playthrough, don't get me wrong, I love homm2 but I've been binge watching your 3 videos for a while and I'm back at your first Halloween special 😅
Haha that one is almost ancient history now
the 8 knowledge intelligence hero running around with no spell points is triggering me something fierce
Really love your play through!
Thank you Noro! I've been looking for this playthrough ever since the wasteland terrain was announced!
I've been looking forward to this SO MUCH, thank you for your work and I hope you enjoy playing the new town :)
Thx for the Playtrough! :) Because of you i started to play Heroes 3 again, after 20 years.
16:12 Nice save!
😂
Love to see another playthrough ❤
Honestly you are my favourite homm3 content creator on this planet. Your vibe is so chill.. No cursing, no shouting, no bad words. I re-watch your content so much. It helps me fall asleep (not that I find your videos boring). Great thanks for your work and I am looking forward to seeing more of homm3 content ❤.
Maybe you play some more custom maps with lots of wealth to really see how factory works at his fullest. Inferno also benefits if you have tons of money. But as long as you play homm3, I will enjoy it 😊
I just love your playstyle. I would watch your gameplayes of HOMM3 every day every hour.
Love the channel!
Thank you!
YIPPEE, I was looking forward to this playthrough, thanks Noro!
Your playthroughs never disappoint. Can't wait for the next part!
Cool! I was so looking forward to this. Hope you like the faction. I'm captivated by it 😊
No words to explain how much this means to me, thank you !!!
I was waiting for this
So happy to see another homm3 series! I wonder if it will be another nail-biter like some of your earlier homm3 series. Like I said before, it's amazing how much of an expert you have become at the game, and sometimes I miss the creativity you had to use to get around almost impossible obstacles. Can't wait how this one will play out!
Nice! Been waiting for your play through
Glad to see your take on this faction. Thank you for all the great videos!
A tasty treat for my Sunday evening at home. Thanks as always Norovo!
Really been loving your videos ^_^ played this game a lot as a wee lass, but there's so much i did know that I've learned watching you play :o Never seen this faction before, glad I found this playlist on a day I'm feeling sick lol. Gonna watch it all.
I love your videos, keep up the good work! I hope the new episode comes soon
Been waiting on this one, Norovo!
Thanks Noro, have been waiting for this.
Norovo Factory playthrough?
We're so back.
been waiting for the gameplay let's go!!
Thanks for this science fiction, double feature! Looking forward to the next episodes :)
Your voice has become my new ASMR, I love you narrating!
Your videos are amazing please keep up the good work, you are the best
2 of homm3 - what a treat and what a pleasure to watch. Thanks for the content, really looking forward to the series. And I sincerely hope you'll find a magic well soon. That's such a pain to watch the poor guy between 2 and 10 of a possible 135 SP :D
So glad you're doing this
Great stuff bro, thanks for the entertainment!
Really looking forward to the next episode.
thanks to you, i downloaded the mod and i'm gonna explore the new factions with my son in a hotseat game later this evening. again, thank you for the video mate.
Finished watching your oldest series of HoMM3 videos one hour before this video released, nice timing 😊
This was great viewing highly enjoyable.
Men of the Sea made me laugh, well played.
Wow, that was a super resource poor start. Shoutout to you for making the best of it!
Finally a new series, let's f gooooooo !
Been looking forward to this for a while now! Been slowly playing my first playthrough of factory and it's pretty fun
Edit: watched now and that's a tough starting zone, no dwarven treasuries and a lack of treasure chests. I've noticed that the treasure zones are ridiculously tough on the random maps now.
Great video
You are the best Noro!
Man i would love to see a match between you and TheKnownWorld on a random map. Much better showcase of strategy in a strategy game than jebus cross or duel could ever hope for.
Whoop whoop 🙌
Thank youuuuuuu
Love your videos! Got to ask, are you planning to make any more “Town Guides” episodes?
Let's freaking go
Let’s gooooo🎉🎉
Yesss. You da boss Norovo :)
I NEED MORE!
great video, Noro, I see your logic, but I dont get it why not building city town hall etc earlier instead of focusing on unit buildings?
Thank you for this

lets go!!
Finally!
This faction is like my household, struggling for money and living off loans from the bank.
Hi Noro!
Loving this playthrough! But I wonder: will you release more of your HoMM2 campaign? I'm really intrigued to see how you will beat it ❤️
Next ep is up now, sorry for the wait!
@@Norovo thank you! It is a brilliant episode as always! And no reason to apologize, I love that there's even more Heroes ❤️
I would love for you to play through the new factory campaign, because I'm struggling with it :(
Lexiav is playing the campaign and is struggling, it's hard, look on his channel
It is indeed quite hard. I just finished the second map and it was tough. However, what it seems impossible at the beginning it turned out possible. The narration/lore is very good and the feeling of overcoming the map was worth it 😅. Try it out!
@@Raziel_J I got to a point where I only had Zog left to defeat, but he was to strong form me. Does he get stronger the longer I wait?
@@nukeape3213 doesn't seem that much. I fought him on the first week of month 5. The key to defeat him is to recruit in all the castles and dwellings of Stronghold around the map. That in conjunction with your Factory army should suffice.
@@nukeape3213 almost forgot. It is highly recommended that you have equipped with the anti lighting collar (to avoid thunder attacks on your archers). In any case, if you are struggling that much, there is one way to cheese it: use the teleport spell on your halflings to place them in the middle of the arena surronded by stones. There is one free hex where you can place them without the threat of being attacked. That and the forgetfulness spell on his archers. Hope this helps, good luck!
Why didn't you go along the road week 2? Usually it's the best strategy - breaking into zones, taking towns, accumulating power on the way, looking for creature banks and ultimately control spells
I don't understand it either. He should have broken into the swamp zone on the left, rather than trying to break to a "resources area", which are usually heavily guarded and there are no enemy players.
Nice demonstration of this faction so far. Also, anyone know of a way of getting into the text files and changing the name of that unit to "Sailor"?
Hey Norovo, thanks for the upload.
Your game and menu looks very crisp - What initial graphics settings are you using from the HD mod?
I personally use
Stretchable 32-bit GDI
1180x664
Bilinear 2xSharper
Maybe i am wack, but it feels like yours look better while maintaining original aspect :D

When are the other videos coming? Says there is one hidden video. I need more! Haha
Let's gooooo
If HotA was released with this faction, I would have been all over it. This is so much more interesting!
When I play HOMM games now, my internal monologue speaks with your voice, and I always wonder, what would Noro do? 😂
hype
Really happy to see the Factory update finally release! However, it's not showing up in-game for me in HOTA, I've updated and everything. Is there something I'm missing that I need to do to get it in-game?
It should definitely be available if you're on 1.7.0. If it isn't, it may be related to your map choice? Otherwise I'm not really sure, sorry
@Norovo thank you Noro, I was able to figure it out. I actually had to go download HOTA again, fixed the problem right up! Thank you again for the great content as always!
Is the halfling adobe an acrobat tho?
Ok real question: why do you wait with the halflings so often, even if the enemy isnt in full range dont you waste a turn of dmg??
in 1:20:00 you could've protected your main armadillo stack by bringing any 1-stack near the big stone thus avoiding breath attack. I mean, yeah they moraled but still would be worth it.
I think the random map generator always starts you in your home terrain. Or maybe it generates your home terrain around your starting town.
The second is correct
Nice Video! Can you tell me wat are your grafic settings? Whatever I do, it dosn't look as good as in your videos.
On the HD mod I use:
Mode: 32-bit OpenGL by Verok
Source size: 1180x664
Stretch filter: xBRZx2 + Lanczos
@@Norovo So you use a other Mod than Horn of the Abies ?
I am not naive English, and don't know the word your were trying to avoid (the sea men). Can somebody at least explain to me what is it related to?
Rough start, will Noro be vanquished?
He should have gone alone the road after a couple of weeks and try to get more resources and probably another castle.
Feel like the zone to the west was the way 2 weeks ago. Hindsight of course, easy to say now.
On first glance Felt like a slower start than you usually have However having the Gantry opened and building will see quick power spike.
it would be interesting if you do 1 rampart vs 7 factories or the other way around
What template are you using?
YAYYYY
Hi. I need some help with mods. I m looking for one that lets u create bigger maps and the second one which allows u to have more skill slots on every hero. I believe it's 10 instead of 8. I have Hd mod but I don't want horn of the abyss. I don't like how the game feels in this expansion. Do u have any suggestions?
Get ERA III. It has bigger maps and a huge amount of mods available including one which lets you have 10 instead of 8. Easiest way to install it is the Heroes 3 Launcher
@@KyriosHeptagrammaton I can't stand era 3. Sorry. Not an option for me
@@KyriosHeptagrammaton I installed HOTA so I have bigger maps but still I would love 10 skills
Todd is my fav hero from this town
Next episode pls!
"I think we want to go through the ssss... the men of the sea"
Where can I download this.?.
It's too bad that you can't play with music, because the Factory and Wasteland music are awesome!
Commenting for the algorithm
where can i buy horn of the abyss? any good site?
you dont buy it is a free mod added to heroes 3 complete
Grenadiers early are OP
Too much pondering and choosing poorly in your first few weeks. Tough starting area with few resources to collect. Your knowledge was high, but lack of topping up those spell points for not wanting to waste a day or two collecting them cost your units dearly. But it's fun to get off to a struggle and not run away with the game so soon. Will we see another player break through to you in part 2? Could be a tight defence if they do! Looking forward to the next instalment.
I always have mixed feelings about units that have a sacrifice mechanic but deal damage.
In this case it´s kinda throwing away army numbers with the automatons.
Dunno.
I'd love to see an xcom style of this by firaxis - tbh not many modern games are better than Heroes
make heroes 3 tier list
WHYYYYYY there is no "WOGification" for HotA....... :(
there was a reason this town is cut and not coming back even after two expansions.
this is Factory. Unreleased town called Forge. It's different towns.
Yooo
