HotA with VCMI outdated - The Mysterious Island - Heroes 3 map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

Heroes 3: Armageddon's Blade

This is the story of Leondegrance's war. In ancient times this great warlord was the first one to explore the continents and finally unite them into one great kingdom. Nevertheless he was not a man of peace and honour...but a barbarian in heart and mind.

Best map - The Lord of War
Really surprised that this map is not rated higher. Played it multiple times over the years and it’s still one of the best homm3 maps ever made.

The way you start out your conquest as a king and slowly build towards the finale, the humour in the messages, the layout and surprises along with the challenges makes it my all time favourite.

Definitely try it out!

Unable to get Lord of War to load in my map choices - The Lord of War
Hey guys! I just found this copy of my favorite HOMM 3 map from way back in the day, which I presume is for HOMM 3 HD. However, when I downloaded the map and pasted it into my Steam map folder, labeled just "EN", the map doesn't show up as a choice in the selection screen.

Is anyone here familiar with the game on Steam, and might know what I'm doing wrong? Really appreciate the help!

none of the maps here is for the hd edition.
this map particular is an armageddons blade map. you also can play it with the complete version of the game.
for better gaming experience use HoMM3 HD (not hd edition!)

Great map, probably the best I have ever played. I got the spellbinder hat from the dragon utopia really soon but never used it. My recommendation - if you get the spells fly and dimension door too soon, do not use them.
It was obvious that you are not supposed to obtain them at the beginning. Maybe too much monsters at the start, everywhere I moved they jumped at me, endless fighting. But otherwise the game was really funny, longest ever, a great work, thanks.

Nice map but to easy especially if.. - The Lord of War
You get some relic artifacts in the utopias.. Some small improvements like not so much money, no dragon utopias and other minor things and it would be a great map..

+10 for that nice map. That's not difficult as some other maps but I've enjoyed it! 3-4-7 (88 days) is my result. Try to use 8-10 heroes instead of 1 or 2 "dads". Also you can find killed opponents in tavern and use some their skills. Try to find DD near titan’s land and game will be fast.

You mentioned (in the "readme" file) that you eliminated Dragon Utopias in order to unable 5-level spells like flying or dd. What is, however, the point of that, if the Blue has got Fly and reaches you in 6th month with enormous army...? Amazing map...till this moment

stuck with shipyard
When i go down into the water maze i buy a ship but the ship appears a space further from land so i can´t move on it! also it is not possible to buy a second ship because of lack of space.i explored then the island for another way and had no save to go back and reload. so i can´t finish the map in anyway and i will not start from beginning. you should give a destroy ship spell in a town.

my answer, It may be too late for you, but in those situations where shipyard is bad placed, build a boat then cast summon boat. That boat will automatically move to your location, as the spells is coded to check access.

I ran into a problem here :|
I have defeated green, some red dungeons and espcially teal rampart (really tough battle there with those dragons).

However, even after I defeated all the teal hereoes and vanquished them, there is still no shackle of war ? Is the reward in the seer hut important ? And is there any other way to obtain it.


Author: the new guy, 03-01-2013 21:47
Mediocre one
this map has some problems with balance. i got a spellbinder's hat from dragon's utopia at the very beginning so my hero could use flight and dimension door lol. you can also assemble a Cloak of the Undead King early and kill everyone with an army of liches like np. this map also lacks some remarcable scenes and uncomon battles. the good thing about it is that some enemies have a lot of troops and its not that easy to beat em.

Not the map I played

The original map that I played did not have dragon utopias. They were green dragon dwellings.

Not sure if this is an edited version or if it may be the original (beta) version. The original version I had had the crypts underground blocked to prevent getting angel wings or similar.

I did once get angel wings from small tomb on island which kind of ruined game. Maybe original ROE editor didn't allow for banning artifacts?
