Map description: Many centuries have passed since the inhabitants of Ashan worshiped dragons and killed each other in their honor. The days of madmen waving swords around, short-sighted fools, and drunkards are gone. Now, rationalism has reigned in the magical world... Well, that's good, finally we can abandon the tiresome pathos! In general, username, you have to get a higher education at one of the best universities of Scientific Magic and use this knowledge to fight world evil... Hmm, no, it's better to get a job!
This scenario was conceived as a purely fun map, unlike any other. Here you will not find development, battles with neutrals, and battles for limited resources. The events described take place in a time when there are no wars or struggles against evil. The main task is simply to get a higher education at the university, and not to defeat the main antagonist. But here you will find something that you will not find anywhere else: a sports stadium, a pinball machine, and much more.
Scripts - Despite the apparent simplicity of the map, it contains more than 7500 lines of script.
Abundance of videos.
Lots of humor.
Most battles subtly test knowledge of the Heroes universe and combat tactics.
Unconventionality - this map is strikingly different in gameplay from others.
Many unusual objects.
Talking monsters - if you stand near many monsters for a while, you can hear their conversations.
Quests - the scenario has an abundance of quests, including logic quests, mathematical problems, beautiful "close call" battles, as well as tasks on knowledge of physics or game logic.

Launched the map. First, the size is not Huge, but Medium. That is, it's a medium-sized map. Second, I think it's necessary to increase the hero's speed. Let him run around!

Thanks, I looked in the wrong place. I've fixed the error. The computer doesn't make a move; pressing the E or Enter keys replenishes your action points, so feel free to move around.

The computer isn't taking its turn. Pressing the E or Enter key replenishes your action points, so feel free to move around.

And the guys didn't know that!)) I'm going to start playing, I'll let you know how it goes.

After the first turn is passed to the computer, all players will understand. Good luck, the map isn't very difficult.

Well... it's necessary for the main character to run, not just waddle around on foot. It's tiring to wait for him to slowly make his way somewhere. Seriously. I'm not talking about movement range here.

There's no way to fix this – the unit will move at the speed set by the developers.

Set the movement speed in the game settings to maximum – it will move much faster.

Returned the journal to the elder, received the mask. But after 2 weeks, I still got the message: "Oh, you..."

Thank you, I have corrected it.

Here are a couple more points. After the quest with the elementals, I still have the fighter I chose (I had a djinn). After completing the tasks at the Academy of Light Magic, BD Zehir's stats drop first to -2 (hydras), then to -4 (goblins) PERMANENTLY. Is this intentional, or is it a bug?

Thank you very much for finding the errors. After this, I have a couple of questions for the tester, but okay, we'll fix it. The Djinn shouldn't remain, and we'll also sort out the database issue. Ideally, this shouldn't happen.

A couple more points: 1) After the quest with the elementals, the fighter I chose (I had a djinn) remains with me, along with the original mage and air elemental, and even participates in the quest battles (when the mage and air elemental are not present). 2) In the Academy of Light, the orc race fighters have a negative attack rating, which persists with Zehir FOREVER (hydras -2, goblins -2, after completing the entire course, Zehir's attack rating is -4).
As a suggestion, maybe Zehir should be given boots of speed? It won't affect the balance, but walking back and forth won't be so tedious.
And, as I understand it, the chosen difficulty level (recruit-hero) doesn't affect anything... That is, the map should only be played by initially experienced players, or after watching Remix streams...

The database has been fixed, but there's an issue with the genie: the script clearly states that the genie vizier should be removed! Could you share your save file?

I'll give you the boots; thanks for the idea. I just haven't had the time...

The amount of starting gold depends on the difficulty level.

Here's the save file.
But the main question arose: how do I finish the game? I've maxed out the skill tree, completed the lore questline, so what's next? They won't let me exit...:eek:
Oh, and I forgot: there was a bug when I tried to build a ballista for myself - it worked the first time, but I didn't immediately realize it was about the gremlins. When I reloaded, the titan didn't react when I approached it with the gremlins.

And you just didn't approach the culturologist after defeating the elementals, right? That's why the genie remained.

I've already fixed it.
