Havez

Standard profile

How to use this hero

Home faction: Academy

Shooting army · Gremlin and upgrades

Havez suits the Gremlin / Master Gremlin / Gremlin Saboteur line. Protect their firing space and focus on a target whose removal prevents the next enemy action. Reassess the specialty when replacing the whole recruitment line.

What the profile establishes

Specialty · Gremlin Master

Gremlins / Master Gremlins / Saboteur Gremlins: +1 Attack and +1 Defense per two hero levels, with the first bonus at level 1. Its practical value depends on how many of these troops you field.

Listed starting skills

Suggested army and further development

The following is our recommendation. Creatures, spells and items must actually be acquired; this does not establish current inventory.

Maintain reinforcements for this line first. Then build on the listed skills and choose offensive or defensive support for the actual opponent. The specialty’s numerical effect is explained with the connected creatures.

Skills I would build around: Basic Artificer · Basic War Machines. Match further choices to available ranks and the current army.

Creatures I would consider

Equipment I would compare

Compare effect, slot and acquisition conditions on the item card. A suggestion does not establish that the hero starts with it.

Army: ranges in the manual profile

Counts are manual ranges rather than a fixed state in every mission. A zero minimum allows absence, and repeated stacks remain separate.

Machines listed in the manual profile

Owning a machine does not itself grant its control ability. Distinguish War Machines mastery from Ballista, First Aid and Catapult.

Spells and suitable equipment

This profile’s individual starting spells are not yet established. A school or recommendation below does not confirm spellbook contents.

Equipment suggestions for the plan (2)

Editorial suggestions based on sourced magic or an army plan. These are not starting inventory or guaranteed finds. Check acquisition, slot and rules on the item card.

  • Beginner's Magic WandSuggestion

    Adds two Spellpower; despite the name this is not a limited-charge casting wand.

    For spells whose damage or duration actually uses magical power. Check the individual spell formula.

  • Necromancer's HelmSuggestion

    Adds two hero Knowledge for greater base mana capacity.

    For a longer spellcasting expedition. Capacity and daily recovery are separate effects; compare current reserves with the next battle.

Creatures connected to this hero

A specialty target, conversion and tactical example are different relationships. Check conversion costs and compare individual upgrade forms on creature cards. A tactical example is not a confirmed starting army.

The 3.1 manual names all three forms in this line. Under this hero, they gain +1 Attack and +1 Defense at levels 1, 3, 5 and every two levels thereafter: +5 to both at level 10 and +10 at level 20. This is a flat bonus, separate from percentage growth or the +1 Speed in Heroes III. The specialty does not confirm starting ownership; compare both upgrades by cost and abilities. The specialty description above covers this hero’s additional effects.

Roster and source scope

Tribes of the East 3.1 manual: 64 standard heroes and 49 additional profiles including campaign variants. Skills and four attributes describe the manual profile, not a guaranteed state on entering every mission.

Development and equipment suggestions are our analysis of the listed profile. A mission may alter the starting state; each relationship distinguishes school access, an actually learned spell and a future acquisition option.
