I had friends who almost refused to trust me when I told them "Yeah, don't expect HoMM 3, this crusade system is fairly terrible". Now they are cursing every time they have a battle to deal with.
I mean, the fights against gargoyle armies especially during chapter 2 basically end with like 8 turns of all four of my units whacking away at the lone gargoyle unit after I've already cleaned up the rest of the army, while the lone gargoyle unit does inconsequential damage to my clerics.
It's like... I never saw this shit in beta. Like, why?
I'm still having the time of my life when it comes to actual gameplay otherwise, but it's really awkward as hell.
