Beim Durchstreifen seiner unterirdischen Domane sah Rumple der Zwerg eine dunkelhautige Elfenmaid beim Baden in einem glitzernden Pool. Von ihrer Schonheit verzaubert, schwor er auf der Stelle, sie fur sich haben zu wollen, komme was es wolle! Doch bevor er auch nur etwas unternehmen konnte, war sie schon in die Dunkelheit entschwunden.

Author: Roy (USA), 22-06-2011 16:55 English The author has said this was a German version of the map. So if you want the map in English then download the English map that was made a while back.I have started to play it again since this has just remind me of it.
Author: Orkidea (Bucharest, Romania), 31-05-2011 13:54 ok First of all thank you for your interest :) It's nice too see feedback and I'm sorry if I was too mean but last night I was so excited to start a new map and when I saw it wasn't working I got really sad ...I don't know any German ( so an English version would help ) but I had a feeling that the story was about Rumple :) and when I saw you can choose factions I've said to myself "why not " that's how I've seen the Academy problem . Btw I didn't get any message in the first day ("Getrieben von dem Verlangen..." )
Anyhoo I will give it another try because I really miss HOMM .
Author: Koni, 31-05-2011 12:26 Bug fixed The map was uploaded again under the original zip. I've just tested the download and restarted the game. On the first day there is the window screen with the message: "Getrieben von dem Verlangen...". So all other scripts will work fine as well, and you'll get the messages when approaching the pool and finding Miranda's ring. And now you will get access to the red tent with this ring in your possession. You only have to follow the instructions given by story.
So you could give Rumple a new chance to find his beautiful maiden. And hopefully you change your "very bad" rating of 1.00 :)
Author: Koni, 31-05-2011 04:08 Bug because renaming the zip Orkidea, you are right. The map is not playable, how it is now.
But first of all: the map is intented to be played as Red (Dwarven town, starting in the underworld with Hero Rumple). That's the story!!!
But when you do so, at the start on day one there MUST appear a message.
But it doesn't (as I just tested after donloading from this site.) The reason only can be, because the stuff changed the zip and renamed it. I have asked for a new upload with my bugfree zip.
Sorry for your "waste of time".
Author: Orkidea (Bucharest, Romania), 31-05-2011 01:44 I don When I start a map I don't like to open it before in the map editor to see if everything is in order - I like the element of surprise :) Also before I've started playing with Fortress I choose Academy and there was another problem - couldn't explore much - only a few steps around the town ...so there is more then " a little problem " and the thing with the tent ruined the map for me- I won't start it again, just doesn't worth it . It's a shame there aren't many good maps anymore...
Author: PrairiePlayer (Minnesota, USA), 31-05-2011 01:13 Then fix it Orkidea:
Then go into the map editor and rotate the red tent 90 degrees to the left. Takes only a minute to correct. I have nothing to do with developing the map by the way. It just seems to be a very small problem.
Author: Orkidea (Bucharest, Romania), 30-05-2011 22:00 very bad I've started to play this map and it was ok ...nothing special but it's not playable !!! I can't access the Red Tent so I can't go any further ( no Instant Travel spell also ) ...why make us waste our time ?!?
