Hello, heroes! :)
I've never used codes before, and now I have a problem: I can't enable the codes for scouting the map. I'm playing on SOD 3.2. Or are these codes only for WOG? Help me! Thanks in advance!
For Natasha, I registered as Nills, but I'll send another save file at the end of the week because this one is not very good.

Hello, heroes! :)
I've never used cheats before, and now I have a problem: I can't enable the map exploration cheats. I'm playing on SoD 3.2. Or are these cheats only for WoG? Help me! Thanks in advance!
For Natasha, I registered as Nills, but I'll send another save file at the end of the week because this one is too weak.

Those cheats that use nwc are for SoD!
You need to explore the map before the game and do it very carefully. When using a cheat that allows you to build all buildings (you need it to analyze what magic is available where!), you need to restart the game.

However, maybe I'm missing something... In SoD, the mages offer only one of the skills for the lightning protection amulet, and none of the spells that Natasha mentioned :(.

I checked the starting save with three different versions of the game.
Tournament Edition 1.03p - all 3 spells are given!
Shadow of Death 3.2 - all 3 spells are given!
Running the game with the exe from Shadow while TE is installed - all 3 spells are given!

Bugs usually occur when trying to switch from one version of the game to another - this is the protective reaction of save files made on TE!

It's best to play from start to finish on one single version of the game; otherwise, there may be unforeseen difficulties!

After analyzing the previous posts a bit, I realize that my play is own-word mediocre. Therefore, I ask the winners, at the end of this round, to describe their tactics and course of the game in a few lines, so that I can compare them with mine and see obvious mistakes. Thanks.

I don't know who will win at this stage. However, I'll share some walkthrough secrets right now.
Leave the Naga banks for last, so as not to sell a necessary resource!
Take Utopias using Archangels with a Water Magic book, reviving losses with a clone.
Do not color unnecessary dwellings, so that in dungeons you only get angels or giants (depending on who prefers what).
Don't build magic towers at all because of the sphere of magic banning, which we take to the arena!
The main secret — the hero, the army and how to assemble it, I'll leave for later!!!

Final save sent. :) :) :)

The assignment for the third round will be posted after the second round is completed – on Monday! Natasha will only be available on Thursday, but she has already responded to all emails! Please do not send her personal messages – the limit has already been exceeded!!!

It’s a pity that we have to wait so long. I was already planning to start. Okay, I’ll play Heroes of Might and Magic IV in the meantime.

Yes, yes, I'm slow. Of course, I checked with a hero who didn't have magic skills. Unfortunately, I don't have TE yet, so there are no compatibility issues between versions :)

We take Utopias with the help of archangels with the book of water magic, resurrecting losses with a clone.
We don't upgrade unnecessary dwellings, so that in the dungeons we only get angels or giants (whichever you prefer).
We don't build magic towers at all because of the sphere of magic prohibition, which we take to the arena!

Interesting, is the book of water the "ready-made solution" for destroying the Azure? I want to be criticized, but I bet on skeletons and Galthran, with whom I take Utopias (the main intermediate hero who does the main dirty work and strives for the main artifact. And the arena hero suffers nonsense, eating and collecting Archons). One minus - he moves very slowly. Basically, this is the only problem, but with all the consequences :(. All hope is on liches. For their sake, titans are abandoned, and the evil computer is ignored.

The task has a limitation that "skeletons" cannot be taken to the arena. Literally, so liches will be taken! :)

I want to be criticized, but I went with skeletons and Galtran, and that's how I take Utopias (the main intermediate hero who does the main dirty work and strives for the main artifact. And the arena hero suffers from nonsense, eating and collecting Archons). One downside is that he moves very slowly. This is essentially the only problem, but with all the consequences that come with it :(. All hope rests on the liches. For their sake, I abandoned the Titans and ignored the evil computer.

The quest has a restriction that you can't take "skeletons" to the arena. Taken literally, so liches will be taken! :)

I didn't find anything more suitable either! The Book and Archangels. You can also take cows and get free resurrection on TE, but I prefer the Book. And probably a berserker and a vulnerability sphere!
That is, there is a lot of choice. Or you can just not rush and take them at the end of the game.
Galtran is quite possible as the main hero for those playing on TE, since you can only not take skeletons from the transformer to the arena, but those obtained through necromancy can be taken, as well as liches or zombies.
The main hero's task here is really to run around and collect bonuses, but the companion still needs to be used to build up finances in his castles.
Liches are good, but they need to be obtained using wings and a chain of necromancers!

What cows are you talking about? :eek:

...using wings and a chain of Necromancers!
Wow, what an interesting idea (the percentage losses are insignificant, but the territorial coverage is huge! Yes, with limited time, that's exactly what you should do). It's just too late here. But it can be applied in the next games.

It's a pity that Heroes doesn't have a demo mode, like... for example, in Quake, when you download a demo to your computer and study tactics and various tricks.

So, if I understand correctly, the main army is still Archangels, and the next one, according to the author's idea, is skeletons (for players on TE) or liches (SoD)?

Has anyone tried playing as Dungeon? I understand that it will be more difficult to deal with the Azure faction with these guys! I've been racking my brain for 4 days now. Fortunately, it is actually possible to solve this problem in the last few days.

Many call the cow the mighty gorgons that live in the swamp castle. They have the special ability to kill with a gaze, which is especially useful when fighting level 7 units and dragons!

The idea with wings is not new. Exploring the map by transferring the army from hero to hero is the basis for a quick start on any map. Here, it just makes sense to create a chain specifically from necromancers.

Judging by the number of archangels and their speed, they will be one of the 3 strongest units.

The idea is probably this. On TE, you can get some speed bonuses for heroes, but skeletons will slow down the hero's speed.

I haven't tried. I immediately started with Castle, because that's two angels by the end of the first week! You can take Dungeon later, the passages are cleared normally there. As well as Rampart. And the swamp. Tower is more difficult. But it's not very necessary.
But you need to take Utopia in the first month, so that, by building a treasury in Rampart, you can accumulate more gold.
And also wings in one of them!!! Without them, you might not have time for the main hero to visit everything.

I'm playing as Dungeon. I've heard a lot about it, but I'm still playing as them. I didn't really expect much, but I hope it will prove to be a good choice in the arena.

I'm also playing as Dungeon, despite everything. I think they have the best location. And in terms of strength, they'll beat everyone.
I've already solved the quantity issue. The last and most serious question remains: how to capture two Utopias?

Dungeon has a good start. There are many mines nearby, and the location is dominant. With any start, you need to quickly capture these castles.

I'm also hoping to surprise my opponents in the arena! ;)

Interesting. I just think the surprise will be the same for everyone.
The real question is, who will have the bigger surprise.

Exactly.:) For some reason, I also got the feeling that there will be no more surprises. The question is: who had fewer eggs fall out of the basket along the way!?:):):)
