Pomazok1329 THANK YOU. I tried it, locked the gates, all the fire damage went to the Archons, sometimes it doesn't, but in any case, it's a good method. It was very helpful in Paragon, especially when dealing with a large number of dwarves and other infantry (not archers and flying units). But I stopped playing Paragon (the place where I stopped playing Paragon is https://yadi.sk/d/wGJJE3Al3GaiXt) because I didn't understand where to go (the paths and routes are not obvious, and sometimes the object is not what we see on the screen). It seems to be the same here. For example, it's not a mermaid, but the Seer Dulci who needs the Sphere of Torrential Rain. I defeated the Angmar Sorcerer, and with the gate locking as you suggested, and the classic approach (4 sorcerers died), I went down into the Dungeon, where they demanded the Amulet of the Spellcaster (I have it), the Pendant of Courage (I have it), and the Pendant of Life, which I don't know where to find. I had the Pendant of Life, but I gave it away, along with the Boots of Levitation, to open the tower next to Hobbiton. I don't know where else to find this pendant. I found 2 artifacts for Bri: the Ribbon of the Messenger and the Medal of the Official, thank you. I'm looking for where to use them. Question for those who know English, especially the last sentences. Also, I need a translation of: "I am the oldest, wisest in Middle Earth! La-la-la! If you want to make life easy - choose Aragorn as your main hero! La-la-la! He is most worthy! Hi hi! Gandalf's diplomacy is for beginners only. O, yep! Only for the North Island! There is the last one willing to join your army! Ha-ha! I'm Tom Bombadil! I know everything for everything! Tra-la-la-la-laa..." I found the Pendant of Life in the north, by the sea, behind the Griffin Conservatory, as Pomazok suggested. I used the air view, thank you. And on which heroes do the 2 gloves stack? Is it for heroes whose main skill is Logistics?

And on which heroes do the effects of 2 gloves stack? Is it only for heroes whose main skill is logistics?

I mean, they don't stack at all; they just take up space.
There shouldn't be any problems with the "Very Easy" difficulty level; the opponent just waits to be defeated in place.

After freeing Legolas by killing Thranduil, he terrorized Bjorn in the dungeon and learned Resurrection and Blind. Now he just needs to find a "clone."
Pomazok1329 I'm playing in easy mode to see if the map is even passable, because otherwise it will be like with Paragon: there are many paths, but in the end, I get confused and forget where I was going. (And what about the portal system, where, to get to the right area, you have to "block" unnecessary portals with other heroes so that the hero "appears" in the right place? I like strategy in Heroes, not searching for known and unknown paths on the map. And on a difficult level, you also have to save money on everything at the beginning, and as soon as the opponent feels that he is stronger, he immediately attacks, and after receiving a beating, he runs away from the battlefield. Until I study the map, such a "Greed Sphere" and "You Can't Catch Me!" don't bring me satisfaction from the game.

Pomazok1329 I'm playing on the easy version to see if the map is even passable, otherwise it will be like with Paragon: there are many paths, but in the end, I get confused and completely forget what my goal was. (And what about the portal system, where, to get to the right area, you have to use other heroes to "block" unnecessary portals so that the hero "appears" in the right place? I like strategy in Heroes, not searching for known and unknown paths on the map. And on a difficult level, you also have to save money on everything at the beginning, and as soon as the opponent feels that he is stronger, he immediately attacks, and after getting a beating, he runs away from the battlefield like a hyena. Until I learn the map, this "Sphere of Greed" and "Just You Wait!" don't bring me any satisfaction from the game.

I once wrote about the uninspired, tedious, and grindy Paragon, and to avoid repeating myself, I'll say that this "Lord of the Rings" brings much more enjoyment, for the widest audience, while Paragon is one of those maps that cause headaches, waste time, and generally cause more trouble.
Personally, I rate this Lord of the Rings 3.0 a 9/10.

Pomazok1329 Apart from a few things, Lord of the Rings 3.0 is quite enjoyable so far. And regarding the game: Gimli is collecting azure dragons, but there aren't enough resources yet; they're expensive. With archangels, it would be better to find a clone/phantom faster))). The hints said: "For the Sphere of Vulnerability: Garniture of Interference was in Tranduil, and the 'Cloak of Equilibrium' is in the seer's hut in the western part of Anduin. Using the 'Blindness' spell and the Sphere of Vulnerability, defeat Smaug." Smaug has been defeated, but I haven't taken the Cloak of Equilibrium yet. Tranduil has been defeated, and the Garniture of Interference is probably somewhere in my backpack. I need to exchange this stuff, BUT WHERE CAN I EXCHANGE it for the Sphere of Vulnerability? (it seems to be a black ball). Here's the save file for now: https://yadi.sk/d/fireuIlU3JwwrA

Also, a translation is needed for: "I am the oldest, wisest in Middle Earth! La-la-la! If you want to make life easy - choose Aragorn as your main hero! La-la-la! He is most worthy! Hi hi! Gandalf's diplomacy is for beginners only. O, yep! To North Island only! There is the last willing to join your army! Ha-ha! I'm Tom Bombadil! I know everything for everything! Tra-la-la-la-laa..."

"I am the oldest and wisest in Middle-earth! La-la-la! If you want to make life easy, choose Aragorn as your main hero! La-la-la! He is the most worthy! Hi hi! Gandalf's diplomacy is only for beginners. Oh yes! Only to the North Island! There, the last ones willing to join your army! Ha-ha! I am Tom Bombadil! I know everything about everything! Tra-la-la."

"I am the oldest and wisest in Middle-earth! La-la-la! Want to make your life easier? - Choose Aragorn as your main hero! La-la-la! He is the most worthy! Gandalf's diplomacy is just for starters. Oh yes! Only to the Northern Island! There are the last who want to join your army! Ha-ha! I, Tom Bombadil! I know everything about everything! Tra-la-la."
:D

I knew that this would be the most difficult part of the translation (La-la-la! Ha-ha! Tra-la-la!). If I removed it, the machine would probably try and might even translate something correctly.:smile33:

Xaart Thanks, there are a lot more hints for completing the game here, but I haven't unlocked all the towers yet.
-------------------------------------------
About the game: I got into a labyrinth in Moria, and there are a lot of Pandora's boxes here. If you're lucky, you get +1 to luck; if not, you get -3 to luck, and 5000 black dragons attack. You need to reach +3 to luck and take the Divine Armor. It's a very good place to level up even a weak hero, but with the Sphere of Vulnerability. Here's the map; maybe it will be useful to someone:
I made a few changes, and here's a real screenshot of the completed map.

Such "original solutions" from mapmakers (yes, the author of this map is not the only one who did this!) should be punished severely! :smile29: :smile19: Because here, no logic or any other skills from the player are needed; you just have to load the save 100500 times until you find the right path. The map immediately dropped in my estimation, even though I hadn't even started playing it. :(

Such "original solutions" from mapmakers (yes, the author of this map is not the only one who did this!) deserve a good spanking with a ruler! :smile29: :smile19: Because it requires no logic or any other skills from the player; it's just about loading the save file 100500 times until you find the right path. The map immediately dropped in my estimation, even though I hadn't even started playing it. :(

If I'm not mistaken, there's a hint that you need to move like a "knight," i.e., in an L-shape as in chess.
It's not that complicated, and there's no need to replay it.

I 200% agree. One thing is an interesting labyrinth, and another is just mindless grinding by the map author. It reminded me of classic games where kids drew squares on the asphalt and jumped on them :D. If I open a map and see a field of identical objects planted in a square grid, I immediately discard that map. One thing is an advanced training ground for oneself, and another is to showcase one's grinding skills for everyone to see, with the pretense of creating the best map :D.
On this subject, a few words about the fourth game. I once found information on a website about how, in an offline tournament, a map was completed not in a month, but in a week, by defeating very strong guards with very weak forces. I certainly give credit to those masters who did it, but I don't even want to try it myself. To have to fight for 4 hours! :confused: :( :mad: My hand would fall off.:eek: :smile04:

Opened the map. The hint there says (in the event):

Follow your horse. He knows the way.

So, trust your horse: it knows the right path. Yeah, right!
And the sign next to it says "Dwarf's Gambit".
If you trace the path according to the diagram created by Anatoly43, it doesn't really look like a "knight's move". So, it's still a bad idea.
I'm attaching a screenshot of the labyrinth.

How much wood for the furnace!
I looked at the path – it’s not a letter G, it’s a straight line!
This reminded me of one scene from “Mask Show.” A drunk German fascist traffic cop is standing on the road. A car with drunk Russian partisans is driving by. The German stops them and says that the driver is drunk (most of it is conveyed through mime, without words). The partisan says that he isn’t. The German wants to do an alcohol test and suggests walking along a straight line. For this, he draws a line on the road. And the partisan walks strictly along the line. So, that straight line was approximately the same as in this labyrinth.

Marmot, you've been on the forum since 2010 and have seen as many maps as I have. And you know perfectly well how few good ones there are, and even fewer interesting ones.
But why such a negative attitude towards this map? 007 will be much worse, but it seems to suit you.

I'll give you my feedback after I finish "007 chases Dr No," and I'll objectively state my opinion about its strengths and weaknesses. There are some complaints, one of which is particularly significant. But it is still possible to complete it. Compared to the sophisticated maps being created now (Wayfarer, Metataxer's revenge, ...), it is relatively easy, and the author provides enough advice and hints.
