Posts from Ideas for a revival.

That works! But there will also be a war with the Swamp creatures and the Dungeon faction, as a result of which the Empire of Naigon will fall and most of its inhabitants will perish! However, the Elves will also suffer serious losses: the Dwarves, Centaurs, and Ents will separate from them and leave, and the Dragons, Unicorns, and Pegasi will become extinct!

Lyokha, sorry for the delay with the video. There were some problems with the voiceover. I promise to upload the video soon.

2 Celt: This is much better! It could be the sixth campaign for the third game, and after the editor for the fifth game is released, it could get a sequel when a second wave joins these elves, which is already connected to the story of the fifth game. 2 Rean: No worries, whatever you do will be good. I'll be looking forward to it.

These newly arrived factions will become different clans! And the old elves, in order to replace their lost allies, began to replace them with slaves from the defeated cities of their enemies (hydras, dragons, and minotaurs).

Something like that. That's how the revival is progressing! If only someone would take a look at our work. There aren't many reviews of what we've already done.

I've looked at the work done, and I can say the following: I have the same problem as Joker with the art; this will lead to the maps not being inserted into the campaign! To fix this, you need the editor from "The Shadow of Death"! And I don't have it! But what I've seen evokes a very positive reaction!

By the way, I found the SoD (Shard of Divinity), so there won't be any problems with getting diamonds anymore... Although, it feels like they've forgotten about the resurrection feature...

Comrades! We shouldn't relax. Revival requires effort! Does anyone have any ideas or drafts? I had an idea. Let's break down the General storyline into several parts:
1 - the backstory of the Erathian events.
2 - the path to Armageddon and the events immediately after it.
3 - life on Axoth and the search for roots.
4 - the return to Enroth.
5 - the backstory to the fifth game.
What are your suggestions?

Not a bad idea.

2 MasterPainKiller: I suggest making the fourth campaign - for the Elementals. Plot. After Armageddon, the elements were able to break free from their imprisonment. But in order to gain complete freedom, they must collect five spheres - four elemental spheres and the sphere of antimagic. This is what they should focus on. If there is a desire to make this campaign, I will elaborate in more detail.

Yes, I am very much in favor of making a campaign for the elements. I can come up with a plot myself, but if there is already something, please elaborate in more detail.

In principle, there isn't a specific plot. Only in general terms – after the Armageddon, the balance of the elements was disrupted, and they were able to break free. But for the final liberation from human control, the elementals need to acquire all the elemental spheres, including the sphere of antimagic (for the magical elementals). These spheres were collected by the Dragon in the first campaign (except for the sphere of antimagic). After the Dragon's death during the Armageddon, the spheres were scattered throughout Enroth by the explosion. Now, the task of the elementals is to find all the spheres to gain freedom. By the way, I suggest using only elemental heroes.

But for their final liberation from human control, the elementals need to acquire all the elemental spheres = the anti-magic sphere (for magical elementals). These spheres were collected by the Dragon in the first Campaign (except for the anti-magic sphere). After the Dragon’s death during the Armageddon, the explosion scattered the spheres throughout Enroth. Now, the task of the elementals is to find all the spheres in order to gain freedom. By the way, I suggest using only elemental heroes.

I will start working on the first mission at a leisurely pace. Also, we can already think about creating maps for Heroes 5. The editor is almost ready /topic/868/. All that remains is to wait for the patch so that the maps can also be launched.

For Heroes of Might and Magic V, I suggest the following general options for now: 1 - Tell the story of the union of Swamp creatures, Dungeon dwellers, and a faction of Elves into Dark Elves. 2 - Tell the story of the creation of the human kingdom by Robert Ironfist and his brother Lysander. 3 - Tell the story of the heroes returning to Enroth from Axeoth. 4 - Don't forget about Sandro!

For the fifth installment, I suggest the following general ideas:
1 - Tell the story of the unification of the Swamp creatures, the Underworld dwellers, and a part of the Elves into the Dark Elves.
2 - Tell the story of the creation of the Human kingdom by Robert Ironfist and his brother Lysander.
3 - Tell the story of the heroes returning to Enroth from Axeoth.
4 - Don't forget about Sandro!

Lеха, first of all, I'm very glad that the revival project is gaining momentum. But I want to express my concern about the inconsistencies between the revival storyline and the history of the races in the 5th installment. I understand that you haven't finished the 5th installment's campaign. I can say that I know it by heart. And besides, while I was writing my Elestion race, which is mentioned in my signature, I also learned the entire history described by Nival in great detail. I really hope that you want the essence of the revival to be to truly connect the 5th and 3rd parts (and maybe the others), and not to rewrite the history of the 5th installment. I can offer two options.
1) I can tell everyone who doesn't know the main events of the 5th installment's campaign in sequence.
2) I can create a storyline for a campaign set before the appearance of the Seventh Dragon when the 5th installment's editor is released. + create maps for it.

The fact is that there are many storylines in the 5th installment's campaign that can be beautifully connected with the revival, without any contradictions. I really hope you don't try to force the Elves and unite them with their enemies, the Swamp creatures, because it looks very artificial and contradicts the history. And by the way, there are mentions of Sandro in the 5th installment, as I already said.

The revival should be the threads that connect two pieces of canvas, and not a new fabric, even if it is silk!

Lеха, as a historian, you should know that everyone who writes history tries to see it the way they want, which is why history is often distorted to the point of being unrecognizable... I hope that you are learning from the mistakes of the past and will not become like such historians!
I really hope that this project will be large-scale, beautiful, logical, and True (not contradicting any of the parts).

With great respect for the project and its author, AlexeyPank, Supreme

Supreme, I haven't actually played the campaign in Heroes 5 – I just don't have the time. Therefore, I would be happy to hear the story of Heroes 5 and suggestions regarding its revival. I'm glad that there are people who care about creating a unified world for the heroes. I want to post the first chapter of the story of the Restoration here, which I started writing. Share your opinions.

The video for the first campaign is finally ready. Thanks to Supreme and Varg-Nar for the voice acting. Also, thanks to ***JOKER***, celt, Snowball, and everyone else who offered their help.

I'll upload it to the server for download after school today.

It's 11 MB in size...

Hooray, comrades! :)

Hooray! The revival is not dead. We are moving forward. Thank you all.
