Official Scenario Page: http://hmm5.sklabs.ru/woe.html
In the distant year of 1998, "Might and Magic® VI" was released – its events, as you know, took place on the continent of Enroth. The scenario "The World of Enroth" is an attempt to recreate its components (geographical, quest-based, and, in part, historical) based on one of the best turn-based games - "Heroes of Might and Magic® V". This scenario gives a team of heroes the opportunity to test their strength against the strongest factions, representing all eight playable races, and write a new page in the history of the Enroth continent.
A detailed world of the Enroth continent, largely corresponding to the original geographical setting;
Rich opportunities for the quest component provide ample scope for comprehensive hero development; at the same time, the significant identity of quests with those found in "Might and Magic® VI" allows players to encounter familiar characters from that RPG;
The historical aspect of the world is present in the scenario as "Chronicles of Events of Enroth," as well as in detailed descriptions of objects;
Freedom of choice in achieving victory in the scenario; the system of hero reputation ranks introduces significant diversity into the gameplay;
Significant help for the player in the form of a large number of rumors in taverns, as well as excerpts from heroes' diaries;
An opportunity to test your knowledge of the mechanics of the game "Heroes of Might and Magic® V";
During the walkthrough of the scenario, you can obtain almost all artifacts available in the game. The possibility of alternatively selling unnecessary items and obtaining artifacts on loan.;
If you are not an experienced hardcore gamer, it is better not to choose the maximum difficulty level.
The map contains: mod WoE_MOD.h5u, which makes significant changes to the gameplay:
- substantial changes have been made to the basic settings of AI behavior on the map;
-the cost of paying for rumors in city taverns has been reduced to 25 coins;
-the probability of random artifacts appearing on the map has been removed;
-two new artifacts have been added: "Sword of Cold" and "Armageddon's Blade";
-the spell "Astral Gate" is now available to heroes starting from level 25, and its application cost is equal to 60 mana units (was: 15);
-the spell "Portal to City" is now available to heroes starting from level 30, with an application cost of 100 mana units (was: 20);
-the cost of upgrading "Talismans of Travel" has been changed;
-the size of the message window in the game has been increased.

Download the zip archive of the map "World of Enroth" (3Mb);
Copy the map file World_of_Enroth.h5m into the game's Maps folder;
Copy the mod file WoE_MOD.h5u into the game's UserMODs folder;
Check the game configuration and correct installation using the "WoE Checker" utility (0.3Mb).
The scenario requires "Heroes of Might and Magic V - Tribes of the East" version 3.1.
The "Impossible" (320x320) map size and a large number of animated objects place high demands on your PC.
- Your PC must have at least 1.5 gigabytes of RAM, and preferably more than 2GB; otherwise, the map may not start,
- it is desirable to have at least a low-end video card, as if there isn't one at all, crashes and errors may occur.
- There may be problems loading the game if you have an old, weak processor.
- In the game's "video and sound" settings, set the image quality to no lower than "normal" to avoid possible difficulties during gameplay (related to the lack of display of individual effects).
- when loading a saved game, "crashes" to the desktop may occur. This is not a defect of this particular scenario – just restart the game and load the desired save – it will proceed normally.
- To speed up the gameplay, it is recommended to disable daily auto-saving.
- before starting the game, please remove all mods related to the game mechanics to avoid potential compatibility issues!
The scenario is designed for a very long and thoughtful playthrough.
You can play through the scenario with any playable race (the map logic adapts to the player's choice). The average completion time is ~13 in-game months. Be sure to read the readme file in the map archive.
