I couldn't handle it, I envy Heroist :( At first, everything was going well. I captured Greystone, cleared the rubble, and rescued Rutger from prison. I left him to fend off the demon attacks and gather archer masters for the fairy, while I went to search for the ghost path. I was wandering around when the green player showed up. The very large Razak broke through the titans at the gate and came after me. He was stronger than all the yellow players combined! Grol and others. I was short on money, and my army wasn't fully equipped. I fought in the open field, but he would have defeated me even in the castle. There was also Hafiz, a weaker player, running around, capturing mines. I had 7 angels, about 200 zealots, and around 50 inquisitors. He had 33 titans and 9 colossi, about a hundred Kshatriyas, over a hundred battle mages, over 300 steel golems, and more. Every turn, the jerk cloned either titans or Kshatriyas.
Probably not for average players :smile05: But the map is interesting.
Irina19, thank you for your feedback. In this map, a quick start is important. Large losses at the beginning are compensated by experience and troops. There are friendly, strong units on the map that will gladly join you if you find them. The hero is a knight, but a very fast one. And he has awesome boots :) I think you were being too cautious somewhere and took a little too long, which is why the mages broke through the titans. However... I think I'll make a simplified version of the map so that all players can play it comfortably. Good luck!

The map is excellent! You said this is your first map, and I can hardly believe it ;). I didn't notice any bugs, there's a good storyline, and the game is addictive:smile13:
The only comment I have is the same as I usually write on this forum regarding new maps: the map is probably too difficult for a weak player. This is confirmed by Irina19's message. I, as always, played as the Warrior and thought about what I would do if this map had appeared when I was a beginner in Heroes 5... I think the result would be the same as Irina's:rolleyes:
By the way, the green player also broke through the titans for me, but since my main hero was well-leveled and had a decent army, he got scared and tried to hide behind the green garrison:rolleyes:
So, my advice is: reduce the troops of the Warrior's opponents/neutrals (to the level where you yourself would complete the map on auto-battle), but leave the Hero's troops as they are - because of the terrible lack of resources/money, even as the Warrior (I couldn't even buy half of my troops even once), the difficulty will be guaranteed;)
I'm looking forward to your new maps, good luck!
vadim_t, I'm glad you completed the map and thank you for your feedback! I'm very glad you liked the map. I will definitely take your comments into account. The possibility of the green player breaking through the titans at the border was included in the scenario, but the calculation was that by that time, Antares would already have the opportunity to fight them. But, as I wrote above, I will make a simplified version of the map. Player comfort comes first :)
P.S. Your positive feedback has given me confidence in creating new interesting maps :smile13: Thank you.
P.P.S. I'm glad you found another way to deal with the demons;)
Невозможно всегда быть героем, но всегда можно оставаться человеком. Гёте
