King Leopold has lost his torso, someone stole it during the night.
Leopold says he must have it back at any cost and sends out his sons Barl and Karl to find it.
Author: Baron (S), 20-08-2011 15:49 OK You are on your way to the riddler as you seek ring of gems. The questguard tells you this:
A statue of winged creature hides a ring
Ring of the gems is a beautiful thing
Bring it to me and i will sing
North of your town "Statue Palace", you see a winged statue. Search around it.
Author: Alexandru (Bucharest, Romania), 20-08-2011 15:45 RE: Where are you Stuck? No Baron, i can't find Riddler, i can't find the ring of gems, and plus i can't find the purple nor the white tent for me to move forward. i've played for almost 8 mounth now, and basically for the last month i was just running around the map in case i missed something and maybe something will poop in...thank you
Author: Baron (S), 20-08-2011 15:27 Where are you Stuck? Well have you defeated "Riddler"?
If you have, you can just sail the river up northwest and land there. You will reach a teleporter. Its not hidden in any way so, very easy to find.
If you havent defeated "Riddler"!
You must enter the subterranean gate north east of Ancient Palace and complete the quests there.
Good luck
Author: Alexandru (Bucharest, Romania), 20-08-2011 13:58 Tents i found the light blue tent first and then the green one...and that's it, what is the next tent i should find and where is it, because i'm stuck...i need some assistance please!!
Author: Baron (S), 19-07-2011 08:30 Hint There are two Castles that are named "East Castle" and South Castle"
You will find them in the western part of the map, lvl 0, in Blue players territory.
Have fun

The king`s torso - The Kings torso
I can`t find the way in The king`s torso. I`ve took green and lite blue tent, but near the Ancient Palace are about 1500 fire dragons, I can`t win them and I can`t find Riddler. Can you help me?
Author: Ulairi (Poland), 19-07-2011 00:25 Like Brown border Could someone tell me please where the brown border is? I know that Baron has already stated "You find it between South and East Castle" but I need more acurate info as I can find that it :)
Btw Baron - Great map but sometimes it makes me crazy :)
Author: Kansa (Russia), 30-06-2011 14:58 where is The guardian ? I got it.
Author: Kansa (Russia), 30-06-2011 14:14 where is The guardian ? Hi,I'm coming the Guardian quest. Someone can tell me where it is? I read the message and it says that Heading The circle of Magi but I have no idea where it is. Thanks for your help
Author: Kansa (Russia), 30-06-2011 11:51 I got it Thanks very much Iname. I finally got it. You're my star. I didn't think there is water at that place. Again, thanks very much.
Author: Iname (Poland), 30-06-2011 11:09 Recanter'Cloack You must go as far as possible in the area between volcanos, until you reach the edge (there is water covered by the Rocklands, at this point of the game you will not have Waterwalk spell)- then (as written by Baron some time ago) "summon a boat, sail a few step east. Two groups of efreet exist here, One is visible, the other one is hiding in the volcano smoke."
Author: Kansa (Russia), 30-06-2011 10:13 Recanter'Cloack Hi Iname, actually, I reached to the island(rocklands with vocalnos), I almost killed all of the Efreet groups in the island. However, weirdly, there is one group left that I couldn't reach to kill them(at right most side on the island). My knights are not able to come there.
Thanks for your reply.
Author: Iname, 30-06-2011 10:01 Recanter'Cloack If we are thinking about the same place (rocklands with 10 volcanos), then you must sail there, go as far as possible then summon a boat, reach the land and defeat the Efreets.
Author: Kansa (Russia), 30-06-2011 07:19 Recanter'Cloack Hi Iname, I almost killed all of them at a small island near the quest Recanter. However, I couldn't reach the last Efreet group when have no way to come there, although I can see them. Do I need some special skills to reach there. Thanks very much for your help Iname.
Author: Iname (Poland), 29-06-2011 21:18 Recanter'Cloack Have you completed the Seers quest (kill Efreet Sultans)?
Author: Kansa (Russia), 29-06-2011 18:21 Recanter'Cloack Now I'm getting with Recanter's Cloack. Anyone can help me where it is? This map is so good, however because the number of artifacts is invisible, it somewhat causes a little headache for me to find them. Thanks for help.
Author: Kansa (Russia), 29-06-2011 18:00 Find blackshard of the dead knight Ok, I got it. Thanks very much for your help Iname.
Author: Iname (Poland), 29-06-2011 16:29 Find blackshard of the dead knight As far as I can remember it is in front of the ressources&treasure chest which are located next to the Darkness Dragons.
Don't sure if it matters but I found this artefact with Sir Edric (never tried to collect the treasures with Prince Barl)
Author: Kansa (Russia), 29-06-2011 16:11 Find blackshard of the dead knight Hi Iname, thanks for your response. I came the place but get nothing. Can you give me more hints for this? Thanks very much.
Author: Iname (Poland), 29-06-2011 15:17 Find blackshard of the dead night Hello Kansa,
Actually there are 2 blackshard of the dead knight on this map - the first one is near Sir Edric (where he starts the game) but I forgot the location of the second one :/
Hope this tip will be useful ;)
Author: Kansa (Russia), 29-06-2011 09:52 Find blackshard of the dead night Hi Baron, thanks for your instant reply :). I got quest Sokandies, however coming to quest Blackshard of the Dead night, where I can find that sword? Thanks very much.

The island - The Kings torso
First off, you could start a new comment, finding yours in 71-80 took a while.
Secondly, on island without green there is only hint in an event. 119/13/1, says:
'You meet an old hermit.
"The Gate Key you say!. Yes it was here long ago. It has been moved. You will probably find it around the Wizard Statue. The only way to get there is through a whirlpool." 9;
So you shouold go through a whirpool at 75/9/1, explore the area you find, find the statue at 118/60/0 and key at 117/59/0 in an event.
Author: Baron (S), 28-06-2011 22:22 Sokandies Hello Kansa and thanks
Is it this you mean?:
"Bring me the Gate Key. It was last seen on an island group called "Sokandies" ;"
If you have visited the red tent, teleporter north of the river? Else visit the red tent first.
Then sail west of the questguard whom seeks the gatekey and enter the blue players area, in here you will find a teleporter to Sokandies. Read carefully messages.
----------
Thanks wish
Author: Kansa (Russia), 28-06-2011 19:50 how to get to Sokandies island? Hi Baron. Firstly, thanks for your wonderful map, I'm getting pleasure from it. Nevertheless, I'm stuck in quest guard "open key" (dont' know how to get to Sokandies island). Can you give me some hints for this? Thanks very much.
Author: wish (ID), 28-06-2011 18:34 Like Finished Finally I have finished it for 20 months with 2k LordThunder,300 GhostBehemot,300 Supreme,15k imp,4k OgreMagi.
The clone and berserk spell are also very useful.
Great map and thanks Baron, when I was stuck, I always read previous hints given by you.
Author: Baron (S), 28-06-2011 07:57 Mist River After you have removed the white border gate with a boat, sail back and use waterwalk instead until you reach the volcanos in the north. Then summon boat. Good luck.
Author: wish (ID), 27-06-2011 22:35 Like last teleporter First I want to say thanks for the great map.
I have visited the white border and go to the north , sail to the cloud-water, pass the White border and collect some artifacts. Then I dont have any clue for the next step?
Any hint would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Author: kuboy (cze), 24-06-2011 15:05 Like ... y its your easiest one, im used to harder ones from u, then i remembered that i didnt finished this one...
think havent lost a unit since i have welfare skill and bersekr..even against gatekeeper
Author: Baron (S), 23-06-2011 18:22 Developing Thanks kuboy, yes there are some things that could be changed in this little earlier map. But it suits many players anyway so i leave it as is. The Diplomacy as you say should not be present, also the berserk spell, but what the heck its not an impossible or expert map so.. Btw huge army you got there, unbeatable of course :)
Author: kuboy (cze), 23-06-2011 12:29 Like finished finished month 17 week 1 day 5, lvl 53 (no trees visited)stats 94 88 79 90, army: sacred phoenixs 1048, mighty gorgons 7877, hell hydras 540, supreme archangels 448, naga queens 1708, titans 1061, imps 905589 :) think that the diplomacy made the game a bit too easy, still 10/10 well done again baron...
Author: Baron (S), 17-06-2011 07:36 LoT Hi Andali
Yes you figured out correctly, second group is the target, But they should be smaller then the other groups, thats odd. It can be a tough fight, try using slow, air shield, clone, ressurect amongst all, let one small group of enemies survive long while ressurecting in the end. You cant afford to take heavy losses, if so, return and hire more troops. If you have lot of troops available now, do it before fight, else wait until after as the LoT grows.
Author: Andali (Norway), 17-06-2011 05:15 Lords of thunder Loving your map so far Baron :)
But Im having some real problems defeating the group of lords of thunder for the seers hut quest. by reading the previous comments and the hint from the seer i figured the second group was supposed to be easier the the first. but both of them got 7x571 lords of thunder wich is to much for my current army to take without getting some really big losses. am i missing something about the tip or should i just take my losses there and continue?
There are some hidden/unvisible objects on the map, but there is allways a hint
on what to do (Except in one case, silver tent bonus).
So keep in mind to allways read messages.
----------------------------
Known Issues:
Wog settings allows amongst all Sorceress to grow new ability. After a while she
manage to clone an enemy troop into a friendly troop. This can be a disaster if
there is another enemy troop in that square where the new cloned troop is placed.
The previous troop vanish both visually and from any attacks but will continue to attack.
You cant, as far as i know get rid of this invisible enemy without cheating.
My advise is attack with Sorceress only if there is a free square on each side on the
troop you are attacking. (This is not a map issue, but worth knowing about.)
-----------------------------
Solved problems in map:
Later in the game when/if enemy attacks your castles, at first i was forced to purchase
all soldiers in the castles that are going to be attacked. Risk for game hangs else.
I have experienced this especially everytime on "Ancient Palace" [Rampart], which hung
if i didnt purchase all available troops, this could also happen in "East Castle" [Castle].
If buying all the troops of the town before being attacked, the bug didnt appear.
Finally i was forced to block "Ancient Palace" and "East castle" for new invaders.
Think this was the best way to get around the bug, little disappointing though, aspecially
at East Castle as the idea was later on to trying to avoid an hiding enemy.
Hopefully this bug dont appear anywhere else on the map.
I heard other having this issue when making maps.
Later in game when releasing enemies on the map. At two places enemy heroes could meet,
when that happened, they exchanged troops with each other, resulting that the strongest
of the two heroes got the toughest troops. Couple of turns later that hero hung.
Some of the extra bordergates that you may wonder about is put there to hinder two
enemy heroes to meet.
So the wrong mixture of troops in an enemy hero will crash the map. This annoying bug i
have seen on all maps i have been doing.
