After conquering southern Erathia, Hell Zealot plans to invade the northern kingdom. The only one who can stop him is Blue Baron - the legendary lord of Ice Tower, leader of the snow shooters. But first, he has to restore order in his own rebellious neighborhood.
Author: Cristian Mures (United Kingdom), 20-11-2023 03:04 One hero is broken - Ice Arrow I played the map on ERA 2 with recommended mods, I won in 95 days - the map is just great.The problem came when I tried to hire beaten heroes - actually one hero only: Griffinheart.The bad part was that the quests related to him didn't accept the hero died; the bug was that this hero acted like an AI hero ( getting thousands of titans in fight,but having 1 for travelling).Another point is battle replay against hidden event heroes;when replaying,that hero will come with much weaker army.

From what I remember, there are two grifinheart heros, one in caps the other not. That's why it may look as confusion with quests.
As for recruiting AI heros, usually I check them all, but since this map was designed by Doc Summan and I only cleaned it from tons of worthless border guards then added some scripts, that one I may have skipped him.
Is mostly due to an original bug: if an AI hero has too big army, the game will freeze. My solution to this was to give two armies, one in fight, one to travel or sit in town. Usually the conditions are "in fight with main hero, otherwise don't add any army" but as you see, it is not always perfect, thousands of details to keep in mind then check in editor.

The main reason is probably that you use the Launcher for playing Era, or the Launcher rewrote all the wog scripts, making all previous WoG maps incompatible.
I am testing right now Era 3.9.5, which will be compatible with both maps and newer mods.
Is it normal to get Angel Wings from Dragon utopia at the beginning?

In mod manager, you must have one map at once, not two. Disable tew4 and enable Ice Arrow only.
Author: Synesthesiac, 07-06-2017 05:59 Problems - Ice Arrow Hey...I'm having some problems with this map. Month 2 just started, and I realized the creature banks aren't respawning. Also, enhanced estates isn't working right. It's only working for some of my heroes. Can you fix, or I need restart? Thanks.
II see no problems. Banks respawn after a certain time AFTER you visited them. Also Estates is working well, keep in mind that you start producing resources only from level 10.

Good God, i have no idea how you people win this fights with couple of 100 s titans. Specialy with armies with 2 stacks of shooters, combined with dragon/behemonts/bir ds. I m seriosly lacking fight tactics :)

Emerald towers, improve titans growth, speed and damage. Then force field: easy.

Oh i m not that clueless. I did all that, my titans have 700 damage and 16 speed, which i think, is good enough for barbarians and rangers, considering, that the guy below is showing the final fight in which his army has 135 titans :D
Like i said, my fighting tactic are obviosly bad, because i can t figure out how to use ff effectively against armies with 2 stacks of shooters and 1 or 2 stacks of flyers. At some point the AI gets to my titans and destroys them. Doesn t matter which one, gelu or the 2 barbarian heroes...but i m sure gona try again.
Valery (Lyon, France) writes:

More damage your titans or sharps do, in more stacks you can split them. Then use 2 single bait stacks to block the other shooters, while killing them first.
If you are stuck on such fight, upload your save and I will make a video
Author: Benny (Germany), 27-07-2016 18:23 Dark Lord - Ice Arrow Me again,
after completing the map, i am trying a speed run. works good so far -- until i encounter dark lord. Got two games going and in one of them a reach him month 2 week 4 day 7 (where he hes significantly less army than one day (month) later) in an earlier game i approached with fewer troops (125 titans ans 6x1 Geenie) Got him to do a little "friendly fire with dragons" and he ressurected from there on. Now he starts summoning fire elementals and when he has no more space -- he moves out ( which happens bevor evil eyes are out of shots)
i made a screen of the start of the battle)

Spells he get are random, if you are annoyed about summoning and want everything optimal for a rush, either you edit the map before or use the Trainer mod to remove spells from this hero.

It can only happen if Ice Arrow mod is BELOW wog mod in Mod Manager. make sure Wog mod is always at the bottom, so its scripts are read in last. Then make sure you load the ice arrow.dat file from its mod folder. It contains the proper wog options.

And just in case you are not sure, they can be visited once/week. Not every day.

I just took a look at where you are here in the third month, and I cannot even imagine how you moved so fast. I feel like there are some tricks to this game that i just don't have, and they're keeping me from pulling off the tougher maps. Like TEW 4...I can't move nearly fast enough.
I'd love to get a look at the first month or so of your saves from Ice Arrow. Maybe I could get an idea of what I'm doing wrong, that keeps me moving so slow!

Don't be annoyed by the timed quests, they are only for people who try to do some rush record as I tried, because this maps can be played in so many ways. For those who fail to win before month 5, a lot of emerald towers will automatically open on 511 ad 611 so don't worry. My win time (after a lot of tries) was 441.

GRIFFINMASTER and griffinmaster
And for unkown reasons, the mapmaker gave same name to 2 diffierent heroes, one in caps, the other no caps. The griffinmaster you need to kill is in castle town, middle map. The one in CAPS you see standing, needs to be killed later and is triggered when you kill the first.

Thank you for spend time with my problem. Ive just finished the game today, that was a great map and HZ battle was epic. I solved all puzzle, kill all heroes except the one left Valeska. Is this hero killable? :D
Thank you for very joyful map
Author: Valery (Lyon, France), 27-04-2016 01:01 + - Ice Arrow ok, I took a look at save. The problem is that Petar (map author) wanted AI heroes to interact each other, or the game (Heroes 3 original) starts bugging when too big armies on heroes.
Therefore there are two solutions: either you play faster so they are eliminated before armies grow too much, or you wait 2-3 days because I am working on a new version where army of HZ is stored in variables, not in his slots -I am testing right now. Which means he will not have any army at all, but only when engaged in battle.
That will eliminate, I hope, all bugs.
