It only works on version 3.0 of the game!
How to check: For those with Windows XP, go to the game folder and hover the cursor over the .exe file. The information will be displayed.
For those who don't have XP, right-click on the .exe file, go to the "Application" tab, and select the "Version" submenu in this tab.

Equilibris, this is a mod created by fans, introducing many changes to the game, new spells, and balance adjustments.
One question. Didn't fans make it?
P.S. My respects to them:smile02:

The upcoming Storm is probably more appealing than not. War of the Whirlwind is disliked, primarily because of the contrived plot, its banality, and its lack of connection to the key events of the universe. In both expansions, the deliberately annoying 3-4 units and a handful of buildings are particularly irritating. And this applies more to War of the Whirlwind. As for fan-made expansions: there are probably some good ones. I just haven't come across them yet.

expansions are great when they are compatible and all on one disc.

I played and completed it; the campaign about King Arthur searching for Excalibur was more enjoyable than the original. Heroes 4: Lord of the Rings Heroes 4: Dungeon and Dragons Heroes 4: Excalibur Heroes 4: Alexander Heroes 4: Dragon Ring Heroes 4: Chariots of Destiny Heroes 4: The Last Battle Heroes 4: Death of Erathia

Hmm... I only have the two official expansions, "Winds of Magic" and "Storm of Magic" (they made many evenings after work more enjoyable), but I didn't see any others in Moscow at the computer markets... although I looked a long time ago... there was some vague expansion about princesses and dragons, but the seller advised me not to buy it - he said it wasn't interesting and had bugs... Where can I find Excalibur online? And what else should I look at, because I'm overwhelmed with choices... :rolleyes:

Excalibur is an unofficial expansion or, simply put, a pirated version. There are many others like it; I remember Lord of the Rings, and something else about dragons. They are playable, but they definitely have glitches. In Excalibur, for example, the arenas with Chaos Demons and Death Dragons glitched, and there was something else...
and what else is worth checking out, because I'm overwhelmed with choices...

No, you're not overwhelmed, unfortunately. If you only consider the official ones, and even with the pirated versions, they don't offer anything new; they just have a new storyline, which sometimes can be captivating.

I only played WW, and I personally didn't like the standardization and the overall feeling that it was "thrown together." If it weren't for the new units, I wouldn't even believe it was an official expansion. The only positive aspect is the couple of new units, but IMHO, it's not worth buying the whole disc for that.

Good, if it's captivating! More often than not, it's quite the opposite! :mad: I remember, in one expansion (a pirated one, of course :rolleyes: ), I decided to evaluate the scenarios of one Campaign out of curiosity (using the nwcValhalla method :D). And what did I see??? Maps that are absolutely unrelated to each other in terms of the storyline, and the landscapes in some of them were simply awful - they completely killed the desire to play. :mad: In general, I quit the game, deleted it, and launched my beloved "Heroes..." :) Hmm... and yet, the pirates even bothered to create a beautiful cover for the disc.

So, instead of another unofficial expansion, I'd rather play online with someone or try an interesting RPG map, of which there are plenty now. And playing something like what was described above... no, and don't even try to convince me! :D

Of course, everything I wrote here does not apply to Equilibrium. The expansion was created exclusively by interested parties and exclusively for the Player, and not for profit! Which contributed to its development and universal recognition! :)

Yeah, that's good. The Whirlwinds of War are perfect.
I wouldn't mind adding more if there are any – they enhance the game.

I remember, in one expansion pack (a pirated one, of course), I decided to evaluate the scenarios of one of the Campaigns (using the nwcValhalla method) just for fun. And what did I see? Maps that were absolutely unrelated to each other in terms of storyline, and the landscapes in some of them were simply awful – they completely killed any desire to play. In the end, I quit the game, deleted it, and launched my original "Heroes..." Hmm... and yet, the pirates even bothered to create a beautiful cover for the disc.

They also put in some decent music. No, I've come across some good Campaigns (from the ones I played) about Arthur or Frodo. The storyline and landscape were fine. I even wanted to play as Gandalf in the Lord of the Rings expansion after completing the Frodo campaign, but then I was in for an unpleasant surprise – the second mission had a glitch, making it impossible to complete. :( That was disappointing, I was actually interested...

P.S. In general, be prepared for such glitches. Although, to be honest, I don't see anything wrong with playing a pirated version. It's good for general development, so to speak ;) After all, there are separate, official versions for tournaments

There's nothing wrong with that, I agree ;) However, if you look into the essence of such add-ons, you'll find that they consist only of amateur-made maps and campaigns, which can be easily found individually on the Internet. :)

Thus, these projects are nothing more than an attempt to make a small fortune by selling other people's campaigns and scenarios as some kind of new super-mega add-on :mad:
It's just business! :smile29:

They simply don't offer anything new (no units, no buildings, no spells). In other words, unprofessional maps (which is why there are glitches) are collected in one place, offered at a low price, and therefore are very accessible. Colorful cover, description, videos inside, and music. If you dig around, you might find something that resembles a gem (a map, a campaign), so to speak.

But sometimes, after purchasing a pirated version on our forum, topics appear asking for help with passing a map, scenario, or campaign.

P.S. I remembered another pirated game. Alexander :D

there's also a pirated version called "The Last Battle," which includes "Chariots of the Gods" and some other stuff... it's structured like the others, with 3 sets of campaigns, like in the original, Whirlwinds, Storm, and ВК, Dungeon Dragons, and... I forgot =(...
I only launched (didn't play) all the campaigns from "The Last Battle"; at first glance, they seem okay... but I don't know; they're probably just as buggy as the other pirated versions, where the campaigns aren't very interesting... IMHO... sometimes you play as monsters, sometimes they're unfinished RPGs, and sometimes the enemies have armies ten times bigger... I don't know... the original and its expansions are more interesting... and pirated versions don't have any expansions...
P.S. It's better to make your own maps... =)

Be strong. Believe
