To those who still are charmed by the nostalgic feeling related to this game, I have created a huge map with focus on the beatiful graphics and landscape this game provides, using campaign heroes and bringing you a huge challenge where the AI got a bigger advantage than you.

Author: Marek Oleják (Česko), 17-07-2022 13:03 Crash log - The Final Test Hi, would like to try this map, but cannot run it in HOTA 1.6.1, nor in map editor. Any ideas?
Author: sandro 1 (Athens, Greece), 29-06-2021 12:13 Like excellent map design - The Final Test Having played the map with success as a team of two human vs the AI, I plan to replay it, since is a great map and victory can be achieved in many different ways. I strongly recommend it
Author: Marcin (Gdynia, Poland), 07-09-2013 15:26 Superb map! Hello. I'd like to thank author for creating this awesome map. Before I started, I've put all the computers in one team to make it more challenging and I banned town portal (however, the red computer acquired it anyway). It was challenging game and I barely made it on impossible, however I was quite lucky that most of the strongest armies didn't invade my lands until I was more prepared for them. I played Conflux by the way (I changed it as well, didn't really wanted to play Stronghold or Necropolis).

Author: Caine Black Knife (USA), 02-11-2011 11:25 Brilliant! I'm only a couple months into this map, but so far it's great. I set it on Impossible, but I'm finding it pretty easy because I found a tome of Earth Magic and got expert earth magic right away. So mass slow + animate dead + town portal lets me put my whole army on Nagash and easily rescue my ally's towns. The shackles of war I found is a nice bonus too.
Author: HoTo (Norway), 19-09-2011 20:24 Like Thanks for the reply! Hehe, yes there are so much frustration the last months, where all you have to do is trying to capture every town, and try to have the control over the 50 AI heroes running around like headless chickens... I didn't enjoy the last part of this map, but i gained control with expert town portal :P
I have made another map that is on this site, but it gets only 0-20 downloads, since you somehow cant find it on the main page... I tried to update this map too (very unbalanced the first time) but every once in a while, the map is updated back to the original one. I don't know why this is happening, and I haven't taken the time asking... :P
I'm not very happy about those 2 maps. I think they are absolutely adorable visually xD, but i think I failed when it comes to gameplay. If I continued making H3 maps, I think i could make some pretty good ones, with the experience from those I've already made. But it seems like people doesn't care about Heroes 3 now, and it takes very long time :)
Thanks for your reply, I can't remember my score. I won it on impossible, but i think that was on another version, which was easier than this one. At the same time, you have to be a bit lucky, with the opponents attacking each others, instead of charging you :D Awesome to see you completed it on impossible!
Here is the other map I've put here,
http://www.maps4hero es.com/forum/opinion s.php?map_id=875&gam e=3
The AI is too weak in that version, and they don't really care about you. But the gameplay there is really nice if i can say so :P
Author: Fi011 (Belgrade, Serbia), 19-09-2011 16:41 Like Victory! I finaly completed the map, though I was on the edge to break the computer because of frustration :)... The worst of all (beside the fact that fly and dimension door were forbidden :D)is those bloody covers of darkness... I just come to explore some area, and then AI just overwrite it with darkness... Grrr, so frustrating :)))... I completed the damn thing with Sandro, undead, in 133 days, on impossible, had Archangel, high score 444 :)... And the army I had was really huge :)... What was your score Hoto? Did u make more maps? :))
It is a shame, maybe u should send them again... And you should erase those covers of darkness :(((
Still, I voted 10 :)
Author: HoTo (Norway), 18-09-2011 19:05 Like yup Thanks for the reply. I totally agree that the AI is everywhere in this map. You have to defend so many places... I tried to update the map where I've been trying to reduce this problem, but they didn't update the map when i tried to send it :/
Author: Fi011 (Belgrade, Serbia), 16-09-2011 16:07 Like In 2 hours??? Tell me MaxSI, Im really puzzled, on what level difficulty did u play? I suppose you put it on normal :)))
I play on impossible, on Wog settings, and AI insanely quickly gains experience for his monsters, so one his fully upgraded Ghost Behemoth is double times stronger then the one I just buy, and I gain experience VERY slowly until I get experience stick and then I set up on my level 8 monsters to gain XP 50% faster...
Im maybe on half of map, and it is well balanced, but little annoying cause they are everywhere so I have to defend all the time, and didnt have luck with Town Portal...
But still, I WILL prevail...
:)))
Author: fionn (UK), 08-06-2011 15:55 Help sorry to type a help request in here but wasnt sure where else to put it :-( I have dowloaded some of the maps this one included and have extracted them and copy paste into maps folder of Heroes but I cant seem to get them to work i.e when I boot the game up they arent in the list...can someone make some suggestions...is it a version issue as I did manage to get Middlesearthxl map in??
Author: HoTo (Norway), 27-04-2011 22:42 Like re: You're right dude, the AI is really getting confused here... Several times I've noticed them wandering around at the other side of the map after a couple of days with their main hero, and not even touching their ore/wood mine after some weeks xD
But I have been very afraid of buffing the underground team too well. Some games, they randomly grows into an force that cannot beat no matter what, if you play impossible... And I want the difficulty ''impossib le'' to be a possible quest x)
I won on impossible, I challenge you guys to do the same ;)
Author: bigcitymama (greece), 27-04-2011 19:01 re: [I can see one problem with this map. I find it too messy... Too many enemies everywhere, and so hard to get control over the whole place. I think a good map is supposed to be a bit overwhelming, but this map might be a bit too confusing...]
no m8!
this is exactly what makes the map interesting!
only the AI aint got "a bigger advantage " as you promised...
and you know why?
cause AI gets easier confused than humans :)
AI cant really grow a huge army in such a map...
so if you want to make the map a bit more challenging,you need to give the AI a bit more advantages :)
as for you my friend MaxSI that finished the map in 2 hours!!!
you should reconsider the risk on your helth of amphetamine abuse!=)
Author: HoTo (Norway), 27-04-2011 18:39 Like Thanks x) Thank you so much for the feedback :)
I can see one problem with this map. I find it too messy... Too many enemies everywhere, and so hard to get control over the whole place. I think a good map is supposed to be a bit overwhelming, but this map might be a bit too confusing...
Please forgive me for only using Stronghold and Necropolis as possible starting towns!
Author: vladica (Kumanovo, Macedonia), 25-04-2011 22:57 nice Nice classic map for HMM3. I play till the end and finish with 306 points. Thanks and continue with one more heheheh
