Sander Payne was always a good student. He liked to study, he often received high marks on his tests. His favorite subject was history and he studied it feverishly. Some thought he was obsessed.
But nobody knew just how far he would go
Author: bluefairy, 06-02-2017 22:43 Great map, too bad it became unplayable - Sander's Folly This map would have been awesome, great storyline and many challenging battles. I love Tim Duncan's maps. Unfortunately, I won't be able to finish this one, because some stupid monsters spawned on the only landing spots of the red tent's island, making it inaccessible.

HD+ Mod - Sander's Folly
If you play singleplayer, I highly recommend the HD+ Mod and the SoD_SP Plugin (Packet for the Mod). This solves problems like that.

You don't - Sander's Folly
Read the event message before the fight, it says to FLEE. Then you can find Sander again at the tavern.
Author: mtor (Modiin, Israel), 06-06-2013 20:23 One of the best One of the best Heroes3 games. I did it on easy, normal and impossible levels.
Excelent Map.
Author: Snake Madman (The Netherlands), 01-07-2012 23:20 Brilliant & epic Most original ideas
Author: Rakimou (Moscow, Russia), 30-11-2010 04:55 Classic A classic map with amazing story. Definite must play for everyone.
Author: Petr (Buenos-Aires), 18-07-2010 23:58 You need to eliminate FLY!!! Excelent map,I liked it, but so disappointing finish. Arestra's "Fly" ruins all the game's end, because you can use it to pass through the gate to gain +40 knowledge and claim the victory perhaps at the same day. Just disappointing recognize that you need not kill Moraji, Sagimyris, Leblanc or find mercury to win. You can evade almost all enemy to reach Arestra and doing nothing more.

dont need to cheat
Its very hard to make a map as complex as this bug free. Just because you can cheat doesnt mean you have to. This is the best heroes 3 map I have every played in 15 years
Author: 1cecold (Warsaw, Poland), 24-04-2010 02:32 I First of all, this is one of the best maps ever made.
Now, can somebody tell me where I can I get an Orb of Inhibition? I've already got an Everpouring Vial of Mercury and Vial of Vialblood, but I can't figure out where's the last one to open the gate.
Or maybe, where are the Minotaurs?

Player - Sander's Folly
I can NOT find the Vial of blood or Vial of Mercury - can anyone help? I have been playing for months, been everywhere on map i can, all enemies defeated...
Author: Selm (Budapest, Hungary), 17-04-2010 19:09 good job I like your maps, Timothy V. Duncan, they are all like short novells, and not just a simple game where you just go and defeat the enemy. The story is really interesting, so it was worth playing. By the way I used this map to learn english for my studies and it really helped me seeing those words in a sentence, so thanks a lot.
I hope you make more maps. ^^
Author: MiuMiu (Faraway, Kingdom), 11-04-2010 16:50 Miro's request I sent "Outpost of progress" and "Story of the fool" to the site admin. He should add the maps shortly!
Tim Duncan is indeed one excellent map maker!
Author: Ash (Tours, France), 10-04-2010 22:52 Like Perfect Map Along with GoldHeart, I this is my favorite map I have ever played. Tim is a great inspiration to me. I look forward to seeing some more great maps in the future. I love everything about his maps, especially the:
Author: Miro (Bugarua), 08-04-2010 12:35 Man, I've been waiting forever... ...to see some of Tim Duncan's maps on this site. He is a wonderful mapmaker with a tallent for story-telling as well. This map, in particular, is one of my top ten favourites, combining challenging fights with an interesting plot and even has a few hidden goodies, so the replayability value is high.
Could someone please add his Traemask maps, I can't seem to find them anywhere.
Author: MiuMiu (Faraway, Kingdom), 01-04-2010 19:26 Wonderful singleplayer map with a great story I asked the server admin to add this map to the map pool, but I don't take a single credit in creating this map. I shall only give a humble opinion of the map as a player.
The concept of the map (without any big spoilers): the story revolves around a history student who has his own hypothesis about how his kingdom (and the king) became as great as they were. To prove everyone around being wrong, he finds a way how to travel back in time, to the temporal period where a true adventure begins.
Story: I am not sure, but I am inclined to believe that the entire story of the map is based on a fairytale, a novel or a book, because there is a lot of reading (many-many events on the way which include huge amount of text, but the text is very nicely written, very interesting to follow). Putting is shortly, the map has a great and well articulated story, with a very hilarious yet enjoyable finale! Story line 10/10
The gameplay layout: at the beginning, you're faced with somewhat straightforward linearity while reading events and having maybe at best a few fights. This slows the desire to play if you're not into the reading, but once you're done with "wizardry studies" (in the story), the very hard part of the game start. A lot of really hard battles, some of which you're not even meant to win at first. Really hard for a beginning player to play, but for an experienced veteran an enjoyable gem.
Oh, and did I mention that the map designer had an excellent idea how to make the concept of time traveling in HoMM3 AB possible.
