HotA with VCMI outdated - The Mysterious Island - Heroes 3 map

Hi!

Thanks a lot for trying to play the map — I’m really sorry it’s not working.

From what I understand, there’s a big gap between the version of HotA emulated through VCMI and the “real” official HotA.

To work properly, the map requires Horn of the Abyss version 1.7.2 or 1.7.3.

As far a

A bit of history behind my map...

As a kid, I was fascinated by Jules Verne’s The Mysterious Island.

When I discovered Heroes II back in 1998, I immediately dreamed of turning that island into a playable map. I even drew a rough sketch at the time — but with the limitations of the XL map size,

finally... but not finished - To Tame a Land
alright. I wanted to say finally finished, but in all honesty, I can't be arsed anymore :D
there's only a few fights left (black dragons, gate, lord of light, castle), but it's gotten quite repetitive by the end, it's all the same slow/kite/berserk/blind. just having a lot of strong creatures gets old quickly for me, I much prefer smart battles with limited resources and spells.
it's an awesome map, nicely designed, well balanced, and I really enjoyed the quests.
although, some of them can be quite cruel. I spent so much time just travelling from one end of the map to the other (and sometimes for nothing - yes, I'm looking at you, one enchanter for 25 peasants!).
all in all, I rate it 8/10, thanks for the experience Jaakko, it must've been a shit ton of work mate

rashka... - To Tame a Land
I've restarted this battle a dozen times, but his archdevils keep getting luck, so the one remaining stack is still too strong for my behemoths :/
the best I could get the last stack down to was around 2000, but my behemoths can only kill around 1500. damn exhausting!

very complex map - To Tame a Land
I played. Sometimes I found it really tough. And sometimes I thought there is no way I could continue or even win. But finally after 928 days I did. With very little external help, almost no map editor, no walkthrough etc.
Map is perfect and crafted with great attention to detail.
Only minor thing I would improve is the cash and resources flow. Sometimes i needed to wait a month or two to amass enough resources to buy army able to withstand first two rounds with enemy. After that even the toughest fight could be won with blind and cloning archangels. I think if there is a castle with two thousands of titans to be bought, there should be a way how to get enough money to buy them...

Loved this map! - To Tame a Land
This map was brilliant, lots of intriguing puzzles. It took me a lot of time to figure out the inferno and peasant puzzles, but I got it! Okay, I cheated and looked at Lexiav's videos for the inferno one. This map was on the level of Wayfarer in my opinion, and the last battles were a lot of fun. The only negative aspect was how late it was that you found town portal, which meant a lot of slogging around for reinforcements and double mana.

It took me 939 days to complete lol

Incredible map, one of my favorites. Intricate & well thought-out, I was such a big fan. Thank you to the author!

HUGE DISCLAIMER DON'T PLAY THIS IN HOTA BECAUSE CERTAIN THINGS LIKE THE OASIS DO NOT FUNCTION WELL & YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PROGRESS

I had to hex edit my save to add angel wings to get past one place, because I mistakenly played this in HOTA...

Some tips:
- Gunnar needs to be around level 40 or so at least to do the dark blue tent
- Getting the 30K gems, mercury etc. was fairly tedious to figure out... for those, you may want to just use the map editor & go to these tiles mentioned by someone else below:

gems @125, 135
mercury @28, 25
sulfur@ 120, 113
crystal @ 82, 63

Don't give away the orb of vulnerability until you've gotten the purple tent, you'll need it

the hard battle is with the lord of light - To Tame a Land
It was really hard to fight the Lord of Light. Some stratergies used to win him:
-First round, try to kill multiple groups to let the angles resurrect them
-Try to kill 8000 group angle with high priority. Because if this group is still survice. The lord will clone and this group then clone angle will resurrect other groups
- Your Behemoths and Titants should be around 3k mens.
-Keep the Zealots enermy around below 200 mens at the end to resurrect our army. If you kill them all. There is hard or no way to resurrect your army at the end
-Try multiple times and get luck

Alternative - To Tame a Land

I had only around 2,7k behes and 2k titans. But I won that fight with a help of ghost dragons. At the start of the battle, I casted slow and then attacked the 8000 AA stack with my ghost dragons, hoping to get aging ability. Then I was able to take down that angel stack easily with behes and titans. The rest is brawling and luck. But it takes a lot of attempts to win that fight and resurrect your army.

especially the azures - To Tame a Land

you need to trade 300 of them in order to get the 1500 archangels and you can get 333 from the gate, which is +33. everything else must have been farmed. there are 9 frozen cliffs. (874-33)/9=93 plus change. that alone is 23+ months if you have access to the dwellings from the start...
