Take on God and Satan but remember not to upset the balance in the universe!!!
You decide to conquer pretty much everything in your path but be careful not to upset
the balance in the Universe.
Author: Sasha (Belgrade, Serbia), 21-05-2020 06:04 Gate Guardian - Conquest of the Universe I am about to start fresh when new release is uploaded. Do I need Expert Fire Magic to beat Gate Guardian who looks unbeatable without it. Maybe you can remove Offence as default secondary skill so we can have more options since all other are pretty much mandatory.

dracula and morgan - Conquest of the Universe
Both dracula and morgan have expert fire and you get bother before gate guard. also on a side note u can build gwain up with armor special to take on boragus even before i fixed boragus so map is completable but to be honest the new 1,6 map im close to complete is way more epic and added 150 quests and 100 events to it as well has utilize the new 1.6 updates. I AM JUST WAITING ON TESTERS for it cause time is tough for me to make this map and fixes and to fully test it.

Testers - Conquest of the Universe
I would gladly test it but cannot commit my time to it at the moment since my playing time is limited to 1- 2 hours per day. Back in 90s life went along much better with Heroes.
Author: Adam (Hungary), 21-05-2020 00:16 Some feedbacks - Conquest of the Universe Hi all:)
I played the normal and ult ed version before an i really liked that:) This map is lot more longer than TEW 4 ( tew 4 is xxl map too)
I think need 1 or 2 logistic spec heroes for resource and dwelling collecting.
Need admiral hats at middle stagewhen you sailing after stronghold areas
Need quest gate blocked teleports near level 7 creature dwelling group. The first titan dwelling pack is good as it is now, but first phoenixes dwellings are pain in the ass, ectreme long route..maybe a soulution will be a teleport behind a quest guard( defeat mino guard)
When i set free the offense and armorer spec heroes, it takes to much time to develop them(primary skills), but the hidden events witk 9999AB and some another big fights are good for leveling.
Maybe some more lighthouses at early stage will be useful before the 2case areas and/or admiral hats
I really like this new version but the too much walking time is killing my motivation:/ the map design, the fights are outstanding, so i can't wait the 1.6 or newer stuff:)
Gob job May:) this good map become better and better thanks your updates
I really sorry that you don't familiar with ERA...:/ with your mapmaker skills.... you can make wonder:)
Sorry for my english, it's not mynative language but i hope you understand my thoughs:)
Author: maygwan (Stourbridge), 20-05-2020 12:43 I still need maptesters - Conquest of the Universe I will soon have the 1.6 version of this map with huge changes to the map. The start up to mino bosses will be familiar but rest map changes greatly. Also i have a giant map The walking dead based on tv show which is completed and needs testing. If anyone interested email me maygwan@yahoo.com

ERA - Conquest of the Universe
The map testing with ERA is much more easier than HOTA or SOD:)
You can use Trainer mod(created by talented Valery) and you don't have to use ERA scripts to create an XXL map, but sadly ERA doesn't support HOTA (yet:( )
if i remember correctly the original Ult ed version doesn't contain so much HOTA features maybe some sea objectives
but sure i'm gladly play and give some feedback about your new version, yc1980@freemail.hu
I like what you did with the peasants seer's hut after the water portal. I do something similar with the library and the Portals of Glory after Galahad Home, from time to time I send a different hero, so he can visit the Library and other power-ups, while hiring the troops, so I feel like taking the money that way is cool, too.

your talking old 1.6 - Conquest of the Universe
ya i have done that with multiple huts in new 1.6 and feedback so far is player reached eve which is near end so im guessing the map is close to full test.
Great, I'm waiting eagerly. Any plans to revise The Bogmire Brothers? I kind of love it so much I tried to make one based on the same idea, 4 heroes with 4 different paths and prisons behind one way entrance portals. It was how I discovered that story about too powerful heroes losing against the map. Meanwhile I found the amazing template editor and completely forgot about it.
I told you already how much I envy your drawing abilities, mine are so bad the RMG looks Rembrandt in comparison...

no plans has such on bogmire - Conquest of the Universe
However my latest map The Walking dead is 4 players again well actually 6 players so that might perk your interest. Also i guess it is just practice if you check some of my earlier maps they are a bit bland and lack detail so i guess time helps. Also i have seen some maps with not a lot of detail but still pretty awesome on the strategy side.
Author: Sasha (Belgrade, Serbia), 20-05-2020 07:10 Mutare - Conquest of the Universe 4 peace ogre set makes him not to atack your archangels so your gorgons can finish the job. I had around 3.2k archs and 15k gorgons. Fight was much easier than giardian with gorgon guys.
Author: BloodSucker (Lisboa Portugal), 20-05-2020 01:40 been a while since i made maps and i clearly need to double check my info - Conquest of the Universe Clearly, the Power of the Dragon Father only affects owner units, you can use ForceField or Clone at will.
Now, from what I recall those were the hell of a fight. I can't remember what I did but I do remember my GF getting mad cause I was screaming and punching the table all the time...
Author: maygwan (Stourbridge), 19-05-2020 19:53 i will add some info on quests - Conquest of the Universe no problem and this map will be epic once im done
I didn't knew it worked that way. You said in the first day, you had cast some spell but since I was playing just with Castle, Tower and Neutrals and Angels/Archangels give +1, moral would be neutral anyway and I wasn't getting too many moral strikes, so I never thought about it. Thanks, it's good to know that.
Author: Cristian Mures (Braila,Romania), 19-05-2020 19:49 About hidden objects... - Conquest of the Universe Try to make a strong storyline about hidden objects so we don't need to open map editor from first month at least ;playing with open map editor is like playing hide'n'see k with GPS and predator body heat detector.Do you feel any glory in hiding arts,spells or units randomly in water, for ex?
Not if it's an event that gives them. I know there is a trick to reveal events but I think is something you (this time is singular) created for Era.

Thanks - Conquest of the Universe
Thanks maygwan for your hard work to make our hardcore Heroes 3 players life better. I really appreciate your work. I will start this map all over when ready. I made wrong decision do not have Fire As Secondary skill so will have to restart all over.
While you have set a warning on at least some of the guarded pandora boxes, neither the gloves, nor the boots, nor the Necklace of Bliss have them and it is way more probable one tries to pick them without a save then it is to open a Pandora box. In the first two cases it's not a big deal, you still have just one or two heroes, so needing to replay the entire turn is not a problem. But when you try to pick the necklace you already have four and most probably are using a lesser one for the task. Killing 7000 cavaliers with Merlin at that point it's not a problem but if you sent someone with a lesser army you will have too replay the entire turn, since retreat is not an option, cause you don't have a tavern. In this regard, The Bogmire Brohers was better, that tavern saved me a few times.
Your designing abilities make me sick of envy but I really don't get why you do these stuff.
Agree with proportions... - Conquest of the Universe
A bit balance is needed ,too: a pair of boots is guarded by 5k trolls ( boots are not so important,you have another pair ) and summon boat (which is a must in order to save time),just hidden in water unguarded.I'm saying all this just to mention things that can be improved - it doesn't mean disrespect for your work;I spent so much time playing your maps and having really good time.

Author: maygwan (Stourbridge), 19-05-2020 19:21 your right - Conquest of the Universe beserk is lv 4 and so is clone so both wont work neither will forcefield so ya its been a while since i made maps and i clearly need to double check my info. i am just going to rework entire map and release a 1.6 version of a new map. this one has too many mistakes.
Author: Stasek (Poland), 19-05-2020 18:45 Mutare and mutare drake - Conquest of the Universe Berserk? They wearing Dragon Father set. Berserk doesnt work. 3k AA can kill in one hit 450 Magic Dragon or 300 Azure. Titans deal similar damage. Afer that 15,000 pissed off dragons crash me in round 1: D Clone will not help. As for me, only the force field gives any chance.
Try to edit the map.
Set basic skills as mutare. Choose the secondary skills you want, give yourself 5,000 AA and Titans. And try to win. Insert movie ?? : D
Maybe these fights are simply beyond me. I dont know...
Author: maygwan (Stourbridge), 19-05-2020 15:46 New updated map - Conquest of the Universe Sorry for the mistake the new map updated with few changes.
1-i fixed borogas issue
2-the peasant quest now awards wayfarer boots
3-a quest requires 1 crystal dragon
4-i have made the archer test faster.
5-i have awarded more enchanters so no waiting time.

My setup was ogre 4 pcs set (mandatory), 3.3k arch, 3.5k titans, 15k arch and the rest phoenixes and all ammo carts. It was easy fight since he tried to blind arch while gorgons killed fieries in the first round.

Author: BloodSucker (Lisboa Portugal), 18-05-2020 20:49 GoD's experience - Conquest of the Universe Another thing, I start watching Glenn's playtrough and he dismissed the troops not to give GoD a boost. Now, he starts at level 1, with 99 in all primary skills and the Angelique Alliance gives more 27 so, if he recieves all that experience he will certainly get them all negative, then he can move just enough to find the event with the Azure and Crystal Dragons. He is supposed to dye there, right?
Author: maygwan (Stourbridge), 18-05-2020 20:32 MAP TESTER NEEDED - Conquest of the Universe I am looking for 1-2 people to test my new hota 1.6 giant map.

Its a very hard map so will be tough and i can help if u struggle with few tips my email maygwan@yahoo.com message me if u want to test ty.
Author: maygwan (Stourbridge), 18-05-2020 20:08 you might be right - Conquest of the Universe I will check n fix any problems in the ultimate ed and the 1.6 version of the map i am working on. If u find more let me know.
Author: BloodSucker (Lisboa Portugal), 18-05-2020 15:12 Negative Boss - Conquest of the Universe I believe the Lizard Boy (the one with the Chaos Hydras) is too strong to be moving. I never found him and instead took a nearby Temple of the Seas, empty of creatures but with artifacts inside. From my own testing of my maps, I think that when the hero's power is above a certain amount it simply loses any fight, because his strength becomes a negative value.
Yup, he appeared in tavern in the beginning of this week, caring a bunch of useful artifacts. So, the loss must be more or less random, cause he must have taken some topes and temples first. Again, level 53 with 99 in all primary skills and artifacts boosting them, he could also had negative prims instead.
Author: Alek (Belgrade, Serbia), 18-05-2020 04:13 Guardian21 - Conquest of the Universe I really have no clue how to beat Guardian21 with Gorgons. I have 1.5K Titans but not close beat him. No blind, force field... any hint pls.
maygwan (Stourbridge) writes:
18-05-2020 20:27
titans and angels should do it - Conquest of the Universe
if you cant blind and he has haste then slow is kinda pointless so you will need to block his advance clone titans and focus down units. Draw him away from titans and use 5 angels to resu each other or 5 stacks phoenix to allow you to focus. once u clear a few stacks it should get manageable.

Author: maygwan (Stourbridge), 17-05-2020 00:21 im not sure but - Conquest of the Universe you can probably play it using 1.6 just not sure wat outcome will be ..also the pirate invader can be beaten easily in a multiple of ways.
Author: wasilix, 16-05-2020 21:23 Hota 1.6 - Conquest of the Universe Hey! Any plans to make this map play well with 1.6? Or maybe a tip on how we can properly rollback to 1.5? I couldn't find older Hota installers online.
I have to say I didn't like some of them and I'm not even talking about having my ass kicked in all those garrisons fights but about this tentative of humor - "SOMEONE HAS PLAYED THE MAP BEFORE?." and worst of all, the reduction of the number of Archers in front of the library. I had just upgraded almost 2000 archers a few days before, cause I've sent Robin Hood in front to pick the resources barring the way and was sure to find the needed ones after the fight with the Phoenix. Then I realized I had to wait a few months doing nothing to get them all.
Sorry, my bad. When I played it the other time I probably didn't upgraded the ones from the dwellings and with the 2000 they were enough. I recalled it differently though, I had the idea I would have to wait and then voilá, they immediately matched the number. But I looked on the other version and they were only 2000.
In the underground there are four Castles behind a Black Border gate, three of them have Grails built but not the second from the left. Is it like you wanted or you forgot it by some reason?

ive completely changed the map for 1.6 - Conquest of the Universe

So, if I download the map from this link, it's already the 1.6 version?
Author: wasilix, 16-05-2020 21:21 Indeed - how? - Conquest of the Universe It seems that at maximum I could get before the fight is:
9 titans
1 archangel
some meatshields(satyrs and cavalry)
+ I managed to get blind before the fight
It seems like the most one can get in 1 week to fight this invader. Stats are around 4-5. Opponent's stats are 13-17, she has decent resistance and kills a titan or AA with a magic arrow every turn. Even without an arrow she'd be a pain in the backside to deal with, but with it I don't see a way to win a fight against her.
The only way I can imagine is digging up the holes where she lands before she comes, which seems like an intended way of playing it since there are more coming later.
Please let me know if I'm not getting something, but I don't see how she can be beaten (even with major losses it doesn't seem possible).
I was wondering if : 1.it's ok to dig holes to prevent second pirate to come ;2. if it's absolutely necessary archery skill (if not, can i get ballistic , for ex?).So far i didn't meet summon boat spell yet ( I'm hanging around 4th guard ) which it makes the fights' order a bit restricted;but the game goes on.
