Type : Era 3.95
My name is Commodus, Caesar of Roman Empire, Commander of the Thousand Legions, loyal son of the untrustworthy and heartless Marcus Aurelius. The Spaniard stole my throne and dignity, thus all paths led to this: Maximus must die and will do so by my hand.
Please Mars, give me strength!

I think you should disable this as you did with some other ones. I really enjoyed the map until I was about to assemble it.

Not a big fuss, just use trainer mod and add the missing artefact to your hero

Author: Sasha (Canada), 13-01-2024 03:13 Hard map - The Empire of the World IV After playing MOD, i decided to quit after 8 months. I could not beat legion of Gold Dragons for tent with 1,500 devils. I started with MOW, and will probably quit after 4 months since have no clue how to beat Ajit. Also, how Tazar is supposed to be killed.

I think the problem is the "8 months", as AI stats grow every month, so map should be won before month 6 with all factions, except MSpeed, which is twice faster.
Especially with MoD, you should not have problems, they have petrifying attack so just go for AI, not wasting time looking around. Also Tazar hydras can be killed by level 5 magic, so your devils should be given implosion on hit. Which you can remove later, by transferring it to another mob.

Here is the last battle with MoD, month 5 week 3. As you see, is not 1500 devils but more than 40 000 devils I have. I don't think map is hard, is by all means much easier than before.

Author: Valery (France), 07-01-2024 10:48 + - The Empire of the World IV Map updated 7.1.2024
Fixed a bug with Master of Wealth, delay between trainings didn't work.
Last touch to Master of Elements, instead of getting blind scrolls late game, which can't be used because the combo takes all slots, Commodus will get blind spell, level 5 and 2000 mana cost;
All factions tested as today, I am done with ;)
Author: Cristian Mures (United Kingdom), 07-01-2024 07:01 Like An honest question - The Empire of the World IV What is the purpose of this map? Everything is OP ,no matter what you play - probably MoS a bit more than any ,so many bonuses early and easily I defeated Yog in 2/4/6 with it (I really enjoyed defeating Solmyr ,Tazar and Mutare in the same day).
It wasn't that hard before ,now it's even more unbalanced ;whatever hatred units supposed to create trouble ,they can not escape from winning formula ;when they can act different ,it doesn't matter - daemons are all around .Just for fun ,first hero released can take his bonus with every faction - not sure how great achievement is this for MoD.
So...why not another map?

First idea, years ago, was to have MoS the fastest then MoD the strongest, for those playing first time. It turned out MoE and MoW were so powerful that no one played MoS and MoD anymore, with MoD being spoiled of any creativity. This version gives them what I wanted in first place, the advantage.
My purpose is not making very hard maps, it never was that.

Ok, I checked you are right, there was a bug when packing the map, graphics didn't make it... I resent map here and to your email, sorry for the trouble, I will report this bug to Era author
Thank you,the game works normal;one thing is missing : difficulty - no hell option,just hardcore.

yes, I removed all difficulties, there is only one now, the former hell.
Hardcore is an option at start.

Hmm, strange. Let me recapitulate, just in case : Install SoD or Complete edition. Then double click on Era.exe and specify Heroes 3 path. Then install HD mod, tweak it as you like, then the mods, same pattern as for Era. In mod manager, the order should be priority from the bottom, which means WoG scripts at the bottom, and then TEw4 and then the other mods.
You said you played Alexander, so it worked. Try on that version, should not work different...

Normally, when Era installs, it creates an icon on your desktop, a sword. There is link to mod manager. Also, you can find it in Heroes folder, in Tools folder
Author: Cristian Mures (United Kingdom), 28-12-2023 13:23 Like ERA - The Empire of the World IV What version of ERA is designed the map for:ERA2 or ERA 3?
Valery (France) writes:
28-12-2023 13:33
+ - The Empire of the World IV
Era 3 works for sure, Era 2 I don't know, it is no longer distributed as win 10 has problems with.
Text fixed to display properly with new ERA fonts.
Hardcore comes with bonuses as well, as Improved learning skill and reduce defense ability from start.
Master of Elements starts with all magic schools
Master of Wealth can train other heroes every 7 days, instead of 14 for other factions. Every Master of Wealth hero can train another hero. Only Commodus can train other heros when other factions.
Added much needed bonuses for Master of Speed, as starting quest bonus, better mithril from banks, speed upgraded reduced to 1/4 and Caves of Gods respawning EACH week Invaders will drop Cornucopia components. MoS becomes, as intended first, a total ownage, if played well !
However the Horseshoes (adds unused movement points from previous turn) was tweaked, to prevent massive abuse with MoS (in my tests, waiting one week with one hero wearing him then doing all banks in one day gave 15k mithril). Now only Commodus can
wear them and it gives previous unused movement points, up to 50 000 only.
The Magic Shop was modified, more interesting options.
Master of Devils was entirely reshaped, now it offers a very different gameplay than the other factions. Took me many reruns to finally get the balance between too easy and too hard. The balance was achieved by creating dynamic treasure hunters.
Check infos for each faction in game, by clicking the [?] icon near the minimap.
So which ERA 3 version and what mods? The list is from ERA 2
