you can see it for example at 03:10:11
Author: Cristian Mures (United Kingdom), 27-01-2022 22:43 Like Keep them together - Finding Leena On your way to that point you had the option to kill some vampires and get 15 skellies;keep them and spread them in small area so the dragons stick together and your liches can hit them both (press G to hit the area).For the harder version ,you can not save too many stacks without exposing your liches ,but vs 2 stacks it shouldn't be a problem
Author: Ferdinand2 (Munich), 27-01-2022 21:41 Like fangarms - Finding Leena the fangarms that I lost rised from one stack of 9999 AD, that the remaining stack attacked and killed.
Author: Ferdinand2 (Munich), 27-01-2022 21:38 Like ? - Finding Leena Thank you for your answer and this screenshot. The problem about this is, that you do not protect a unit that is faster than the Azure Dragons (e.g. Archangel or Phoenix). So when the inner force field vanishes, the AD get the first turn and will attack your Power Liches. So the second force field is useless? I do not understand how this double force field works ^^
Author: Nebel 74 (CZ), 27-01-2022 15:45 Map Update - Finding Leena New version 27.1.2022. Possibility of obtaining Liches reduced to 10-15 K, Added gates with anti-magic for impossibility of passage.
The map is ok,no matter what you change;maybe the liches number is reduced,maybe there will be a way to win some impossible fights,possible to win without effort main battles even in your new condition.The main point still remains : you have a journey to assist to final fight where you can not help much,no matter the army you collect or the experience you get (i reached lev 74 last play ) . So what can you change to make the gameplay different or more complex? Leena is winning last fight,all you have to do is buying ticket to reach the final. With thousands of liches or not,with thousands of fangarms or not,the spells will win the fights.I bet on liches because of Moandor speciality;put another hero and take off eagle eye (I never learnt a spell I couldn't live without and the strongest spells are for free ),give a chance for main hero to grow enough to challenge last fight.Cut down the race ,it's boring,long and somehow useless - travelling weeks with no experience or something more consistent than 10 titans .If you really want to build up a strong map,you need to rework on a lot of things and it will take time.I said it on different ocasions - it's very hard to build up a hard map with early cloak involved

for me it is perfect - no worries :) - Finding Leena
The map is fine! I really enjoy it. In my opinion, the big amounts of Liches are very fun!! I was always very happy when suddenly there came up some "You should have known better"- fights with thousands of cannon fodder ^^ Just the purple tent with the shield was far too long from the story. I almost forgot about this. ^^ I would enjoy some more maps like this with the CoUK and Moander skill. In my opinion, the map is perfect for me. I was really sad when I had to give away my CoUK and have to play just with the HOTA ^^ Instead of Eagle Eye the fire magic would be nice.

new version - Finding Leena
looks like a real challange this time. cause not only you reduced the amount of liches. with anti magic garrisons you also drastically reduced the amount of fangarms. its definetally not for unexpierenced players anymore. would like to see if anyone makes a walkthrough of this version..
probably you will need to rely more on archangels, titans and finally on gelus abbility..
Author: Cristian Mures (United Kingdom), 27-01-2022 15:28 Like That's old version - Finding Leena You did something wrong if you couldn't save the fangarms;just keep AD together and hit them both at once.Now get to the second version ,fight against 7x 9999;the principle is the same but keep in mind that your ammo cart will die first round ,so you have 24 shots only.
Author: Cristian Mures (United Kingdom), 26-01-2022 23:20 Like New one ... - Finding Leena Before working on new version,you need to know what exactly was wrong with previous one.The fights are not balanced and, the bigger army we fight,the bigger reward;now,how much army do we need to handle a fight and how much army can we get ,that's one problem with this map.I didn't need to return later for any fight - Hack was killed in last week of the 4th month,titans brought me thousands of liches, that gate with dragons and devils brought me amass of fangarms,azzuro dragons' fight (yes,7x9999) brought me 11k fangarms without losing a single lich.Whatever you saw in video,those fights can be done in many ways if you pay attention on AI reactions - I didn't use force field if I found an easier way to win a fight ,double force field only once against azzuro dragons.To make a battle impossible,just put cursed ground and no more force field,blind or any OP spell;it depends on your intention about one path or another.
Author: Nebel 74 (CZ), 26-01-2022 21:36 new version - Finding Leena Hello gentlemen, I saw the walk with interest, it was great. What intrigued me and I didn't know was shooting Liches into a free hex field. This can kill a lot of enemies for more than I didn't know. Then I was fascinated by the use of a double field force, and this increases the ability to fight strong enemies. I was also interested in not sending the Dispel spell on you from your opponents. When I played this map, they kept sending it to me, and both the Blind and the Field Force simply canceled all spells. I lost a lot of my army. Nobody did it here. I don't know why ... Then the defeat of enemies, which were to be invincible Dragons, Titans (as he writes) Cristian, sphinxx will return and defeat the gate with devils and red dragons :) even these creatures were to be invincible. I finished it with 10 thousand Liech and 5 thousand Fangarms, so for your idea of why the version was as it was :)
I'll probably look at it again and adjust it, it would be enough not to put the field force there and it would be much more difficult right away. I'll see maybe the Admin won't fuck me :)
Author: Cristian Mures (United Kingdom), 26-01-2022 19:22 Like Counting liches - Finding Leena You are not far from truth when you said "only 30k liches".Definitely you missed at least another 30k,which make some battles after giving up the cloak less exciting.And a question for mapmaker :if you really wanted the players to choose the goblin way rather than titan+giants path,why you didn't make them all titans?My lich army (16k power liches + 14k liches )plus 5 phoenix beat them with 56 liches and 4 phoenix lose,getting around 20k liches only from that fight.
Author: sphinxx, 26-01-2022 08:32 new version - Finding Leena finished the latest version in 12 months on max difficulty. the main difference now is that u have "only" 30k liches instead of 80k so u have to rely more on fangarms than before. but this is not necessarily a disadvantage. in some fights like for exmpale against eocatius or jabarkas fangarms were even more important than liches because i was able to hypnotise main cretures of their armies. this version is not a walk in the park anymore but still pretty easy imho. though u have to rely on the hypnotise ability of fangarms. if u have bad luck and fangarm do not hypnotise in important moments there could be slight problems.
i made a walkthrough of the map so for those who are interested or have some diffiulties:

map update - Finding Leena
nebel you did know about the battle.gm1 thing but didnt know about the shooting in free hexes in hota? you surprise me every time :D
cristian: i didnt do all the possible fights because i wanted to finish the map fast and yes curse ground here and there would make the map hard(er).
if you update your maps i suggest you put map versions behind the map name so everyone knows which version he is playing.
And kinda changelog in form of a comment or so also would be nice to know what has been changed.
Astra has too many offensive spells to keep that orb active.Anyway,I finished the map in 12/1/6,definitely I could finished at least one week earlier,but I can't help myself taking mines and resources.Too bad 64k power liches ,93k fangarms or 572k skelletons didn't count for final battle;same with sharpshooters,enchanters or any creature recruitable in your way.About AI reaction,this should be your new research field in future as a mapmaker ;) .

YESSS :) - Finding Leena I did it, but I was two times so lucky that when my archangels did not get the first turn and my forcefield for the liches already vanished, the azure dragons did not attack my power liches but the mini stack of fangarms instead.
Author: Ferdinand2 (Munich), 25-01-2022 22:08 Like lol - Finding Leena looool, who the f**k knows this shit ^^ rofl, haha, loading the battle.gm1 ^^ haha, yes it worked. :)
I really would like to see how you can protect an Archangel and a Lich with forcefields together. Maybe someone can post this.
Author: Nebel 74 (CZ), 25-01-2022 21:53 Battle - Finding Leena Yes, exactly as Cristian says, or you can try to win it as sphinxx showed us. This is an accurate guide on how to do without fight. ... Just lose the battle on autocombat, then open Load in the Menu and upload the file BATTLE.GM1, this upload throws you to the place before the battle, you will appear on the water once a day and you will have full movement and continue without a fight.
The BATTLE.GM1 file is a self-loading file before each battle, if you do not have it there, you must activate it in the HOTA directory itself. Open the HD Launcher file and check the "Save before each battle" option at the bottom right
Author: Ferdinand2 (Munich), 25-01-2022 21:38 Like ? ^^ - Finding Leena When I reload and retreat the battle, then the hero vanishes. How do you make the hero to stay? And how do you can protect the liches AND the Archangles with forcefield? The battle field has many rocks and the archangels need two fields. Can you show me a screenshot of your positionings?
Put liches top left and high speed creature next to them(forget about ammo cart - if u have one,put liches in bottom corner) ;then force field your AA ( your liches will be protected by the edge of battle field and AA from left and right,and by force field in front)
Author: Cristian Mures (United Kingdom), 25-01-2022 21:22 Like The hint is there - Finding Leena Retreat and reload the battle ,then press end turn;you will be able to cast water walk next day without fighting.Or spread some skellies to keep azzuro together ,then protect ur liches and phoenix with force field and hit both dragons with one hit per turn
Author: Ferdinand2 (Munich), 25-01-2022 20:50 Like Battle Hint? - Finding Leena Please give me the solution to this riddle. ^^ I can not surrender, because I have no tavern in any town. And I can not summon a boat there. I do not have to win against the 20k azure dragons, do I? I read about a double force field. (what is the positioning of the units to do this?) But you need to protect an angle too, because of the speed to get the first turn. I only managed to kill 8000 azure dragons with the first turns. Maybe I could win, but then my weakened army is guaranteed not to defeat the next enemy.

Author: Cristian Mures (United Kingdom), 23-01-2022 18:58 Like Some weak points - Finding Leena Cloak was too strong and there are enough liches to fight with them only until the last fight ( including the 2x9999 AD in lose and reload area or those 7x9999 faeria dragons area,easy moneybags ),so there is no need for any other troops apart from few phoenix for initiative.Finished in 13/2/6,probably I've could been even faster,so many areas you don't need to go at all.Then Gelu...the only use was for the artefact in the very end;you could just put it there without Gelu,he came with town portal anyway.Some creatures are just simply placed randomly on map,without a specific purpose (like those ivory towers or the AA's at the beginning of the trip).So the map is just a liniar long journey with an OP art and no real opposition or second option.For fun you could put a guard asking for a number of power liches to open the way for last fight - just saying,I had 72k liches and I missed other thousands turned into fangarms.Then there are some powerful artefacts with no use at all (HOTA is one of them ) - just worked with armour of the damned,it was enough.

THX - Finding Leena
Thanks for the review, I already understood exactly what you are writing from the reviews of other players. I also needed other monsters to test it. I'm just a bad player and fighting is too difficult for me. So I'm building a map to handle it that way.
This is the most difficult task for me when creating a map. However, after the first reviews, I made the map more difficult. CoUK is submitted much earlier so that Liches cannot obtain such a quantity and the HOTA artifact can be used more. I also strengthened some opponents. We will see if there will be any reviews with a more difficult version, I hope that then it will be necessary to use both GELU and other monsters from castles and artifacts.
Thanks for playing map Cheers!

I like your bypasses and all that hidden paths and hidden events.
I found one weird situation. In race with Manfred I first get Admiral hat but I have not get enough move points to summon boat and go to water. On next turn Manfred summons boat (instead to kill me on the shore). I didn't use jungle shortcut but way around through swamp.
Well done.
I like scenarios where are not taverns in game and you have single hero (or few heroes from prison)
Author: Ferdinand2 (Munich), 21-01-2022 01:43 Like Fangarms or Power Liches? Or both? - Finding Leena Everything works now :)(I put a second boat there just in case that the pink player will summon mine^^)
Is it okay when I do not play with fangarms and do not use the horn of the abyss? I would prefer to get more power liches instead of the fangarms? Or do I need a lot of fangarms later, e.g.for the hypnotizing?
Nebel 74 (CZ) writes:
21-01-2022 02:23
TY - Finding Leena
Ok ... I played that I used both artifacts together for some monsters you get Fangrams and for some just Liches. But most players only used CoUK and thus they had a much bigger army and stronger ... so if you want to make it easier in combat, I would probably prefer only CoUK. Play battles without autocombat and if you have a free stack, it will give you unimproved Liches and there will be more than improved ones. For the money you can then upgraded.
Ferdinand2 (Munich) writes:
21-01-2022 02:54
Thank you - Finding Leena
Nice, I didn't know that there will be a higher amount of unimproved liches when I let space for them. I always resurrected every stack to get the upgraded power liches. Nice hint! Thanks :) Yes, in some battles at autocombat the amount is less than when you fight on your own.

@Ferdinand - Finding Leena
Fangarms are wastly inferior to lichee. Liches are powerful shooters, can be gained up to 100% from fights with high necromancy, and are produced from any types of troops (including undead and mechanical).
Fangarms are slow melee troops with nice abilities, but difficult to keep out of harm’s way. They raise in generally lower numbers even if necromancy isn’t particularly high. The only times I would use the horn are:
1. When I’m fighting against a hero wielding a ring of oblivion (negates necromancy)
2. Or when I can’t use CoUK because its slots should be occupied by other artifacts giving me decisive advantage in fight (e.g., +2 speed cloak, etc.)
