The king empire was strong, but some monsters blocked his trade routes. Rebellion began and now 7 leaders want to be crowned as the new leader. The king will have to send his best generals to supress the riot and kill the new leaders. You will have to take king's castle and defeat other leaders.
Author: Derakusa (Estonia), 13-03-2025 21:47 After a while, rushed my map - Wealthy islands So the trick with the Green for the fast game is to break from your area around week 3/4. After that rush Thant and distribute 50 stack of vamp. lords on 4 of your heroes. Capture as many regular players as you can before Tan arrives, because otherwise they become annoying later on. So month 2 I spent on expanding to corner areas and taking all libraries. Month 3 I spent on tents and fighting with Tan. Month 4 I fought with Tan main and the gate. Good stats will help.
Author: Heilari (некрополь), 22-01-2024 20:36 Наконец-то победа - Wealthy islands всю игру карта держала в напряжении, постоянно серый агрессивно играл. Честно не думал , что вообще получится его победить ровно где-то до середины игры. Вообще я привык играть одним основным героем, а остальные чисто собирают войска , ресурсы, но тут игра заставила создать второго основного героя с хорошим войском (элементали). В начале игры собрал некро-плащ на личей, к концу игры 12-15 к примерно получилось собрать, так , что противник уже не представлял сложности. Но даже при битве с главными 2 героями серого ( в наличии было около 7к личей) с таким количеством личей было не просто, т.к. я не взял магию огня на развитие, если бы взял было бы проще через берсерк сыграть. Карта очень сложная и требует огромного терпения, регулярно было желание бросить и найти что-то более спокойное. Нравится играть в развитие, постепенно накопление сил и подходить например к противнику с городами ограниченными вратами, т.е. если зайдешь тогда и будет битва, а так он тебя не трогает и можно спокойно исследовать карту. В такую агрессивную версию карты играю впервые. Я под впечатлением и у меня вопрос-что это вообще было?! И да , даже в конце игры выдала стэк из кучи драконов и т.д. против меня, а у серого вокруг замком рай для прокачки перса, основый перс в итоге у меня по навыкам и скилам всё по 99+, второй основной (элементаль) всё примерно по 90 и тоже с норм армией. Завершил победой через. Мне очень понравилось, спасибо за огромную проделанную работу. Круто

Author: joe c (usa), 28-02-2023 19:45 Like wealthy islands - Wealthy islands This map is so fun man. I like that you can just POWERGAME the f out of it. I really like that you have all the big artifacts accessible with town portal accessible. So many maps are catered to people who want to micro everything and have super overpowered AI. Your "navigation politics" map is probably a step up in difficulty which is super nice if you're a newer player needing training. It's really great to be able to see all the game really has to offer in your maps. You make "feel good" maps if you ask me which is golden. Thanks a ton!
Author: kkk (usa), 22-02-2023 02:26 Like very good map - Wealthy islands My suggestion is maybe some artifacts can be random rather than fixed. I'm playing the second time, and I know what artifacts are where, which reduces the fun of exploration.
Author: Ilia (Banjaluka), 14-02-2023 00:30 Like Success! - Wealthy islands Won after 930 days :))
It look impossible but the key was resembling Admiral's Hat which enabled occupancy of territory and resources whilst being able to flee until built-up the army to crush the famed Gunnar.
Great map!
Author: 4223525, 27-08-2021 07:35 Nice - Wealthy islands Fun and well balanced map. Played inferno with intelligence hero, as soon as I got 1000 mana went to kill the blue tent gorgons with 1 devil, slow spell and magic arrow * 500
Author: joe c (usa), 08-11-2020 18:35 Like wealthy islands - Wealthy islands This is a great map! I've played as necro and rampart which were great to start. Very well balanced etc. Inferno was a bit slow to start and then I quit when tan showed up with the ring of oblivion early in game. Maybe a fluke? Thanks, and I hope to see more maps from you!

Thank you for kind words - Wealthy islands
Tan has an access to horn of the abyss, but for me they didn't take it every game. The idea of this map is that tan starts off strong so you have to leave your HQ and discover islands, so it is good when sometimes the AI shows up unbeatable.
Also you should try my made map called navigation politics. It is also fairly balanced, but I think necropolis (red) is stronger than the rest.
Author: Simon (Ukraine), 29-06-2020 23:18 Found a bug - Wealthy islands I just started playing it and it seems very exciting map, BUT... I found a bug which made me quit the game, fix it and start over again.
The Town Gate in the South-East of the map is not guarded by the monster because the monster is positioned one tile to the right. Need to be adjusted one tile to the left, what I namely did.
Author: Madjek (Tavel, FRANCE), 31-05-2020 22:43 One of the toughest - Wealthy islands One of the toughest map I've ever played. Tan's heroes are coming up after only 2 months and they are just overpowered (minimum 20-25 points superior to each of my skills). I had Tower. And the main one had jud just the double of my army. Very challenging, it was scary, as he is very aggressive ! I was not sure how to deal with.... But thanks to the advices here, I tried to jump from castles to castles, being smarter than them and Bersek was definitely the main spell to beat the biggest tan's heroe. The only pity is the tents quest. Because of tan, you can not play them in early-mid game. You need to weak tan a little bit before achieve them. But well done buddy, it is a nice map :)
As advice, I will tell that water magic, eath (as usual) and fire magics are essentials. Pathfinding and Logistics as well.
Author: bigcitymama (greece), 22-04-2020 17:53 nice adventure - Wealthy islands this time was easier than sod ,ALAMAR was there again 2nd month , near my brand new towns but lukely(unbelivable how he can get so strong so fast and with huge army) he returned home with TP , 3rd month he was dead ,4th month end game.But for that you need fire magic,bersek and diplomacy !
Author: Jérôme (Canada), 19-04-2020 05:34 One of my favorites ever! - Wealthy islands Wow,
I must really give super credits to the mapmaker here.
I have been playing heroes for almost 25 years, and this is one of the best maps EVER! Super well balanced, but most important, balanced at ever stage of gameplay! Many adventures, and side quests... CONGRATULATIONS!

Author: Dima (Russia (Voronezh)), 09-12-2019 16:24 Like Very nice map! - Wealthy islands I realy enjoyed it. Very hard for playing in medium stage, gray is powerful and aggressive, it early had town portal and high stats impossible hero with full stacks unit. But step by step i taken all castles and accumulate units, magic spells, stats and main usefull artifacts. And i've done it!
Finished map on 11 month, and impossible level (200%).
Respect creator for realy pretty map!
10/10!
Author: Gleb (Czechia), 09-09-2019 03:21 Wonderful map! Thanks! - Wealthy islands This was a great play!
At first I wasn't sure how to go about it, but once I figured how to beat the main Tan guy - was pretty easy after that.
Running from the Tan and having 8 different castles, not being able to accumulate stacks too high was a bit puzzling in a nice way.
Kudos on a great map!
Whoever is coming here for clues, thinking it might be impossible - it isn't, don't lose faith :)

Thanks for the nice comment - Wealthy islands
Yes, the puzzle is about using a boat and going to explore. Many people like so called "rushing" and I tried to turn off this on this map as much as possible. It gives this map an unique vibe. Thats why there are no roads and better prisoners and safer locations on islands. Its hard to take shipyards at first but it is definately possible later. Also I combined my maps from other games. Like in CIV3 I always liked to play continents template. I tried to transfer this mapscript to this one too. Also for those who dont know, most of the town names are references to the movies or real towns.

Yeah, I never like rushing and never like playing for record times, I enjoy exploring and building up forces over time - so if you're this type of person - you will enjoy this map for sure.
That said, the tan forces and their aggression keep you on your toes, so there's a degree of challenge. And I didn't think I would enjoy exploring the islands as much as I did in this map, so it's definitely worth the time and, indeed, essential.
Author: Bilbo, 21-05-2019 18:57 Super - Wealthy islands Really nice map. Tan got one super strong hero, with for example 400 black dragons. Eventually I got Angelic Alliance and enjoyed tearing his army apart!

Yes this final fight was indeed pretty cool and I was happy with the final gate fight too. I used my secondary heroes for that to see if they could beat it. Wasted 2 secondary heroes before I managed to break through lol

I think you got lucky to get Angelic Alliance. There is no Helm teapot on this map
Author: Morten (Aalborg), 20-05-2019 00:40 Like Fun - Wealthy islands Thank you for a nice map.
This is well balanced for playing "hardcore" (no reloading ever, thus if I die, I die...) - because the main opponent had shackles of war, which meant I kind of had to be wise playing and make my decisions count.
Thank you, it was fun :)
Derakusa (Estonia) writes:
21-05-2019 23:15
I like your style - Wealthy islands
Yes indeed I also think that reloading from save unless you go afk is a bit op. I lost main heroes in 3 different games like that. So I started a new game with different tribe. It is amazing how balanced it finally turned out since I tested only 2 tribes and my brother tested 1 other before I published it.

Author: bigcitymama (greece), 02-05-2019 17:18 well done - Wealthy islands good map indeed i love hit and run maps,that leave the player the oportunity to show his inventing talents!
just survive and get stronger,not such in armies cause numbers doesnt count but in skills.
good thing is that you got to take the quests(tents) at the same time and of course deal to the rest of the unlucky ones.
brown got out on me before the 3rd month :)
if you want to get it easier choose fire magic or add diplomacy^^
almost a ten!

Glad you liked it - Wealthy islands
I took out diplomacy and dip based arties out because I think it can be too easy to beat other AI players. They are already pretty easy to win by professional players tbh (except tan). I also tried to make the map good for both professionals and players that want to chill and mess around. Like the title says islands are the best bet. Usually people are not going for these, but I made islands pretty useful. Stat boosts are mostly on continents tho so it might get a bit messy. Other than that, I have the map just in the way I wanted it to be.
Author: myth (Bucharest), 02-05-2019 11:36 Tan is OP - Wealthy islands Haven't played in a while, but I think I was doing pretty well on this one, being aggressive all over the place. However, near the end of 4th month Tan started to kick the heck out of me all over the place. He has 300 black dragons and 80 Rust Dragons. Other units are between 500 to 1000. I can go around the map and survive from castle to castle, but I doubt it would help and it would take too much time anyway.

Just do your best to avoid him and make small wins across the map :) the PC is not smart as you
Author: Player (Lima, Perú), 01-05-2019 21:49 Es un mapa en exceso complicado - Wealthy islands No es un mapa de 7 humanos, 1 PC. Es más un mapa de 1H, 7PC. En realidad es virtualmente imposible. Está hecho como para repetirlo varias veces pues se depende plenamente de encontrar ciertas cosas en momentos claves. Y el jugador Tan es abismalmente fuerte y por la dinámica de desarrollo se hace, si acaso posible derrotarlo, eternamente largo.
