Madness reigns in Jianghu, affecting even the Angels. A precious artifact has been stolen. How and why? Only the High Wizards know, but they are beseiged by mad dragons. Eight Heroes set out to find answers. Are their stories different, or threads of the same tapestry?

Author: Bobby (Saudi Arabia), 13-09-2010 13:49 sword of light I can't reach the hidden rogue for the sword of light quest. I already have all the 10 spyglasses. Using the spell Water Walk doesn't seem to work. Am I doing something wrong. Please help.
Author: M (Bulgaria), 11-09-2010 20:34 Just to say First,thanks,Valery, for the info about the scroll.
Second,I just want to warn if bug-I got the speculum and waited for sunday to go again to lighthouse and fought the battle against the genies!After that some over 300 dracoliches in one of the slots became genies.
I reloaded the game before the fight.
Tried again living one dracolich in the slot so if the dracolich changes to genie,not big loss...And after the fight I discover in the place of 80000 sceleton warriors 80000 genies!!!:)))
And to say about my previous game with the atlantis mode installed-if I choose Azrael with hidden race,I see him as dinosaur!:)
Author: valery, 11-09-2010 12:59 Like M There is a scroll of water walk a few tiles down from the fortress town (cursed ground). It is well guarded and hidden behind mountains.
Author: M (Bulgaria), 11-09-2010 02:19 waterwalk I am now trying the Terry Pratchets mode and seems the game is working fine with it.Now I am with Azrael and already have orb of vulnerability and orb of fire.I collected 10 spyglasses and want to visit the rogue,and he is behind trees but near water.
Till now I learned the town portal,clone,berserk ,implosion.I just wonder-I havent seen yet how to learn waterwalk...Am I to learn it from a quest for example or some other way?
Author: alex (USA), 08-09-2010 02:53 Doctor Valery/Salamandre: Tom Baker is the best Doctor ever. I actually meet him in Boston in late 80's. Glad you like him too. I am plyaing him now, and it is fun. Also, I am a big fan of SG-1, SG-Atlantis, etc.
Author: valery, 04-09-2010 23:45 Like M Of course it can not be played with Atlantis mod installed, I think you got funny creatures in TDS, goblins = dinosaurs? :)
For the wog version, the one downloadable here on maps4Heroes should be ok, take it.
The map was done in 2005, so it does not require any special wog. Just the existing one.
Author: M (Bulgaria), 04-09-2010 23:30 Freezing Thank you for translating this wonderfull map-lately I played Xarfax with his two henthmen and made some army and managed to get some improvements by emerald tower.
I have only the problem that my game freezes a lot and I dont know the reason.
So I thought that I should play without the objects and heroes images from atlantis rising and tryed to play it on clean wog.
There the message was the I have 3.58 version og wog(needed),but I dont have 2.81 version ERM needed and my ERM version is written to be 2.58.
Do I have to find 2.81 ERM version or something else? Or do I have to get something anti-freezing?
Author: daoanhanhdung (vietnam), 25-08-2010 06:44 wonderful map doubtlessly, this is an awesome map. Almost things and items are a little bit strange.
But the thing that really stands out is the battle you're facing - getting harder by virtue of the time you spend. This is because of both the growth of the neutral monters and the randomly supporting magics.
by the way, chinese people are really good at making map.
And i wonder how much time it takes them create the map. Although the map is very huge along with a wide arrange of objects, every thing is in order.
but Azarel(a little easier to play), the other heroes is really equal, i guess. Therefore, there is a variety of "tastes" you can experience through the map, i suppose.
But the only problem is that it would take time to familiarize your self with the map, in my view.
the wonderful map
10x!
Author: valery, 10-08-2010 17:40 Like Pass Both authors names can be entered as pass.
Author: M (Bulgaria), 10-08-2010 17:36 Hidden race What is this hidden race and pass for it that appear before the start of the game?I will give "no" to it,but I am curious!
Author: valery, 10-08-2010 01:22 Like MIRA The hat is given by the shipwreck at 70/143.
Steps:
1)go by water walk at 65/137
2) Now return at darklord town and flag the shipyard at 11/104. Build a boat. Now press space, it will build another boat at 64/138.
3) Take that boat and attack the shipwreck.
4) You get hat, equip it and visit the mermaids near, it will teleport you outside
Author: Mira (Bulgaria), 10-08-2010 00:38 ths thanks for the help. I have a break through, though I still wonder how could one possibly go down in the Underworld without cheating for the admiral hats, because the quest with the bags of gold gives you necklace of ocean which does not give summon boat.
Author: Player, 09-08-2010 22:51 very hard Almost impossible, but great!
give 10
Author: valery, 09-08-2010 01:03 Like More To get out from whirlpools equip the orb of water and move on the square where elementals were. You will be teleported outside.
If Catherine blocks all physical damage, that means the story wants it like that. Let her kill you, you will wake up in tne next morning with full army and the final plot will start from there.
Author: valery, 08-08-2010 23:56 Like Mira nothing is unreachable in this map. Check every square, visit every object, they have different properties. For example the purses of gold are:
1)in the middle area, south from the Neutral city, walk over the watering hole till the end
2) Right side near the Hall of Hell, in water, guarded by some monsters
3) South from Dark Lord town in water, near the hidden obelisk and palace of dreams
You need the four orbs. Go and take the whirlpools while wearing captain hat.
Author: Mira (Bulgaria), 08-08-2010 21:03 need some hints! I need some hints. I'm already at month 15. I've captured all towns (at least the visible ones), took blue and red tents, have monsterous army (playing with Azarel). But now I am stuck. I cheated for the admiral's hat (couldn't find anyway to go exploring underworld without it), have no idea how to collect most of the artifacts that the guards want (like cloak of undead king, endless sack, purse, bag of gold etc), can't open the four quest guard in the four corners to reach the magic towers, though I have two orbs - eargh and fire (it always give me the same massage: 'I can't pass this yet'| and the orb of water which is behind the mermaids is unreachable, that is to say - I can get it but I can't go back, and the last thing: in the house of wisdom Catherina always kill me, she blocks all physical damage, and her ballista kill one or two stack of my army per turn...
Please help, I invest over a week playing it and yes I read walkthough in Heroes Community, I couldn't find my answers there..

Author: songfx, 08-08-2010 05:24 Wonderful map It is the most popular WOG map, not "one of".
Author: songfx, 08-08-2010 05:22 Amazing map It is the most popular WOG map in China. We are so glad to see an English version.
You should have a try if you are a good WOG player.
So many quests to be finished, so many stories to be triggered.

Special notes:
If you can't inflict ANY damage to one of the AI fixed heros, let them kill you, you will wake up next morning with full army and next quests will be triggered.
Use the emerald towers, palace of dreams and Upgrade in-town growth to build a powerful army.
Remember to resurrect your dead henchman or commander. If dead they do not improve.
You can buy almost all commanders artefacts at the Battle Academy (50k gold each)
Use the commanders artefacts to switch your secondary skills with the hidden one, then remove the artefact, so the slot becomes empty. Think to never accept scouting, so you can use that.
Visit the scholar in the Underground to get scholar skill and teach your scouts, so they can visit emerald towers and other.
Flag as soon as you can the mithril mines.
If you choose less than 200% difficulty, there are chances that AI leaders get killed by neutrals, therefore you can't visit the blue tent in underground. If so, visit the second blue tent hidden at 93/36/0 and pay 200 mithril to get access.
