Author: Alexander Belous (Zurich, Switzerland), 18-07-2021 17:35 Nice, but way too many artifacts - WORLD OF ISLANDS - BY LELLI I played for Dungeon and finished the map in 5-2-5. Imho, Dungeon has a huge advantage on this map, thanks to the Portal of Summoning - I noticed the Dragon Cave right next to my first town on day 1, so I didn't flag any other dwellings (except the Azure Dragons, of course). This allowed me to start hoarding dragons before I even got Minotaurs, so I set sail much earlier than the enemies did (although you still spend the first 2 months on your main islands).
Pros:
* Layout
* Summon Boat only becomes available in midgame, making the map more interesting to explore. Sea Captain's Hat is banned.
* Eagle Eye is banned :)
Cons:
* One of the first artifacts I got from a Shipwreck Survivor was... Angelic Alliance. Needless to say, this gave me a huge advantage over the enemies.
* Way too many artifacts. In the late game I got so tired of going to the Artifact Merchants after each fight with an enemy hero, that I just went on killing them with my backpack full.
* Wandering creatures are too weak.
* Admiral's Hat, Water Walk, Fly, Dimension Door are not banned. After I got "Fly", it only took *1 week* to defeat the remaining 3 players and win the game.

Mid game, Blue player moves, game crashes
Author: Jim (Sweden), 12-11-2007 23:15 WORLD OF ISLANDS I've played this map for a while and it seemed nice and a lot to do, then it crashed :(. It was when the blue player entered a monolith. To get around it i was forced to cheat and go and kill him, before he made that move. Well now that spoiled the map for sure. Is it only me that have this problems with some maps. If not are there a workaround on this?
