I didn't quite get the point of underground factions, since I could just get the keys from the border guard tents and move on to beat the blue castle, not needing to deal with orange or teal player (whom looked much more challenging than the upground factions). I wish you worked a bit more on the underground section, making some sort of challenge there too. Anyway great map, all scripts work flawless, thanks for the great effort!

Author: Kubuś (Polska), 09-02-2025 14:16 Like very good - Vampire Lover very good, original map, gave me a lot of fun because of the brilliant atmosphere
Author: Kees Marcelissen (Nederland), 16-08-2021 02:17 Vampire lover - Vampire Lover bad map. I killed green except the last one and then yellow complete. but cant reach the red tent. probably because of wrong order. yellow is dead but cant reach the red tent.
Author: Uganda Knuckles (Taiwan), 17-02-2021 15:56 Nice map - Vampire Lover Creeping is relatively easy with necromacers.Just bring a bunch of vampire princes and torper everything in sight.Dwarves and orcs are relatively weak upground,its pretty easy to beat them with brute force.
Underground factions are relatively strong.Their troops are huge and their hero have pretty high stats,but with Ornella's vampire prince defending in the corner(with stand your ground) and vamparism you can beat them one on one(Black dragon can be torpored).If you find the final boss difficult to beat,you can use lethos to throw some destructive magics and run away.
I beat the map in 6 months.Most of the time are just traveling through the map.
For ornella skills I suggest Defense,Summoning magic and enlightenment.Stand your ground is a pretty stronk ability.

Author: jonathan widjaja (Indonesia), 24-09-2012 07:18 nice! Nice map, good job... spent hours on hard mode, finally I won, phew... can't imagine how to win this on heroic modem is it posible ? does anyone succesfully defeat the enemies in herois mode ?
just a help for whoever can;t go to underground:
defeat green player, get shackles, release lethos, and let him walk to the crossroad (middle of path) then he will teleport to the underground. Defeat the dungeon castle below. after you capture the dungeon castle, have lethos go outside castle, so your main hero go to crossroad and then use the town portal to this castle.

Solutions - Vampire Lover
You need to go to the bridge with Ornella and trigger the quest to go through the bridge.After that you can go to green castle,and after that you can free lethos,travel through underground to get the keys,and go to blue player
Author: Seraphita (Germany), 15-02-2011 20:15 really great map you really did a great job in makin this map (: it takes a longggg time to finish it, but its cool ^^
annotations: You dont need "puppet master" or "berserk" to win the map.
It `d be nice, if you `d delete the sanctuary in player blue's territory... He hid himself in it and I captured the final castle - defended by 1 Legion of lv1 creatures X.x
thx for the map ^^
Author: alexander (good old germany), 15-01-2011 01:54 Very good map This is a real good map with a nice storyline. To fight against the large troops in the underground, you need the spell puppet master and sandros coat. After conquering all surface towns it is easy to raise a big army to kill all enemies in the underground.
Thank you for this nice map!
Author: Bjassie, 31-07-2010 20:48 good ealry midgame tiring late game good map verry nicely done. But I after the I got the the undergound and I had to fight a mega army for the 10th time I was like screw this. I mean after a while the armys get so big. and 412 archangels? and the super Dungeon army's? its just gets tiring especially when you suffer quit some losses. Then you have to rebuild your army. And wait and wait to take on the other super armys. I loved the map dont get me wrong, Untill I got to the Dungeon part I get really fed up with it.

About underground enemy - Vampire Lover
You can use the vampire prince only against Dungeon and Inferno army.I use 1k of them(it won't take much time with so many towns upground and defend in the corner(with stand your ground) and vamparism.You can kill all of the troops one by one without any lose.
Author: PrairiePlayer (Minnesota, USA), 27-02-2009 23:38 Getting to the Underground Paul:
I did enter the underground but you have to follow several steps. The first is to capture all of the above ground cities then go to the tower holding the wizard (Lethos) and release him. There is a trick as after the dialog box opens announcing that you have released Lethos, close the dialog box then click one more time on the tower and only then will Lethos appear. Take both Onella and Lethos to the crossroads but Lethos should arrive first and will be automatically transferred to the underground where he must capture the Dungeon city. Once the city is captured only then can you use Ornella's Town Portal spell to transfer to that underground city directly below the crossroads. Hope that helps.
Author: Paul (Switzerland), 27-02-2009 19:07 Could have been a contender The author's inability to post responses to the problems with this map have overshadowed what was nearly a great Heroes' experience.
I, too, cannot get to the underground, despite dragging my main all over the entire map trying to find "the crossroads" (although they appear to be obviously in the mid-north section of the map). I camped my main for days, walked over every tile, tried wearing/not wearing the manacles and the ring (needed to cross the bridge), all this in order to attempt to get transported. Nothing worked.
Additionally, the quest log is very incomplete. A bit more information should be given out about quests, especially when each one MUST be triggered by standing on specific locations. Merely stating "get so-and-so item" without reminders for location or placing landmarks near required items/areas is just frustrating for the player.
Author: PrairiePlayer (Minnesota, USA), 27-02-2009 00:21 Help with the final battle Sarvi:
I really enjoy your maps and think yours are some of the best out there. I keep going back to replay some of your previous maps such as Dark Alliance and Sorcerer's Isle but after getting almost to the end of Vampire Lover I remembered the problem I had the first time I played. I cannot attack Salacia as it is shown as an ally and not as an enemy. The same thing happened when I tried to attack Lazlo in the underground so I just gave up and left him. I would like to finish up the map but cannot figure out how to get to the last Blue city. I am standing at the city gate but can do nothing. Could you help?
Author: Thomas (Budapest, Hungary), 03-09-2008 18:08 Underworld Hi. somebody can explain where can i enter the underworld and how? where is this croassroad? i tried in the midle one strit from the prison and use townportal but i found myself in my town. Plt help :)
Author: Andreas (Denmark), 30-08-2008 07:50 hmmm Where is it i'm supposed to go to get teleported to the underworld?
Author: Mi kaela (Bucharest, Romania), 26-02-2008 23:17 Problems! I have some problems with this map: I conquered everything on the surface except the blue and the green castle from the middle. I conquered Greystone before this objective appeared on my list(and I still have it as an objective, although it's mine) but I didn't get any key. I can't get the red key because I can't enter that area so I can't get to the last green castle. I can't free the prisonier and I can't get to the blue castle. There's nothing more on the map to discover or get ... what should I do? (hope my english isn't too bad) Thanks!
Author: Michael Shuster (Philadelphia, PA), 18-02-2008 21:35 Mostly good The map had decent, but not overbaring plot. Good use of the map editor scripting features and was well balanced early on. I took the first orc town before taking the dwarves and found that I had to defend the "second" undead town with my main army, so I lost back the orc town. I like having the map be challenging enough that I can actually lose a town!
Found the map to be very good in the early-mid game. After securing the surface towns, my army became overly massive during the fairly lengthy (and when journeying to the lower right city, downright tedious) time it took me to secure the underground. The final battles weren't even slightly challenging, even if I fielded an army of only vampires (this despite facing armys such as 500 seraph, 500 angel, 1300 inquisitors and 500 titans) I never did find the teal keymaster either. I usually chose to fight without using puppet master, because it made things too easy.
