Background:
This map is based on a map on Heroes of might and magic 2 called The seven lakes. The seven lakes was a map i really enjoyed playing and offered a real challenge playing it. So when i began playing heroes of might and magic 3 i thought it would be nice to try and update the seven lakes to heroes 3 style. So here it is, The nine lakes. It is tricky  to have a castle on a lake, to get more troops or when you need to defend your castle you have to get in a boat, which takes one day, then travel, and get of it before you can get to  your castle. i think this is an interesting layout for a map. 

History:
Once upon a time in a land far far away lived a king and his eight children. The king lived a long and happy life and all his children did not ever missed anything. His sons and daughters grew up and got married and moved to their own castles but one day something terrible happened. Their land was infested with dragons and the dragons fed on people. Soon the people who lived in their land was so afraid of the dragons that they didnt dare to go outside and work. So the king said to his children.
-i want you to kill those dragons that are supposed to live in the underground somewhere. When you have killed the dragons we may be able to live a normal life again and the one who kills them will get richly awarded and a worthy new king for this land.

Update:
Fixed a few minor bugs, especially in the land in the lower left quadrant (Trekkie language)
