Can someone explain the meaning of this map? I gained approval... and then what? To progress further, I need keys – they are located on the territory of those whose trust I have earned. When I cross their borders, they become hostile. What should I do? And what’s the point of earning their trust then? ******************* Also, after taking the Diplomacy perk (it was a minor perk before the Empathy upgrade), every other stack of creatures after level 20 tries to join me. As long as I have enough money, they will. This is excessive. The author needs to adjust this.

Dear map author, is it possible to create a multiplayer version of the map?

Hello everyone, can you tell me the name of the campaign in Heroes 5 where, in the second or third mission, you play as demons and have to go through many gnome garrisons to reach the main gnome castle?

Thank you very much, Master, for the well-designed maps. I played both scenarios with a hero, and the battles were interesting. I would like to wish him good luck and time to create new maps that are no worse than these.

Great map, Master! Very interesting and well-thought-out, but I have a couple of questions:
1) Is it intentional that the dragon set is missing a helmet and a sword?
2) It crashes frequently when trying to load a saved game, both in this scenario and in the "Awakening of Evil" campaign. The game is clean, without mods, running version 3.1, and I delete all maps except the ones I'm playing. What could be causing this?

Deleting them from the profile makes the map very stable: no crashes or even slowdowns.

Thank you, kind person – you saved me from nervous breakdowns.

1) Is the dragon set missing a helmet and a sword by design?

I made it a while ago, so I don't remember clearly, but I don't think there are any restrictions on collecting the dragon set.

As soon as a mission starts, the game inexplicably begins to lag, and I have to press CTRL-ALT-DELETE. It doesn't matter which faction I try to play as. What should I do about this?

Wait a minute or two for the script to load.

I played 5.5, choosing Haven and setting the difficulty to maximum. I didn't quite understand the purpose of the level 7 creature block for humans (the AI buys whatever it wants). Is it just to make the game harder and more interesting? I only collected the set for the 6th month, which is needed to unlock the Angel, and by then, I already had over 300 knights. I defeated the Mage first, saw the Grail, and realized that all the AI opponents had Grails, and humans with money are basically guaranteed to win. I also didn't understand the approval system at all; it's a cool feature, but not really for Heroes. I sent everyone packing because war is inevitable. The map is visually great, and I really like large maps; there aren't many of them, though. If all the features mentioned above are only in 5.5, then I apologize.

I replayed as the Mages, completed the map with a hero in 4 months and one week. I still couldn't find access to the mentor and the mage's hat (they are located on the islands and can only be reached using astral gates, which are not available), but that's okay, I defeated everyone without using 7th-level creatures. Overall, the map is very good, much better than the "mediocre" maps made by current mapmakers. It seems that they simply don't know how to make such maps anymore. All hope is on the author.

I started playing this scenario and noticed one flaw (I'm playing as Orcs). When you run out of the Orcish location and head to the right (past the sawmill and defense tower), there's a mixed Orc army (Cyclops and others) guarding a mace (+5 Attack, but -5% to Initiative). The point is that you can easily take the artifacts and resource piles without fighting (and there's a large amount of them). This reminded me of the first mission for Fayedan (there was a similar setup there, where you could bypass the Succubi without fighting and take the artifacts).

Thank you for the great map! I have a question. I've collected all the artifacts except for the helmet of the dwarf king. I've searched everywhere, but I can't find it. Can you help me? Also, for some reason, the quests to collect the artifacts aren't being completed.

Tell me, is there a version of the map with quests for all factions available?

I have separately uploaded the version of the map "The End of Darkness" (no quests). Well, not separately, but this is the only version available for download...
