Title: Outcast
Map name: Otvergennyi
Game version: 3.1 ONLY!!!
Map version: 0.5
Map type: Single player
Map with a Dungeon
Number of players: 1 player, 1 computer.
Map creator: Dyrman
Size: Huge
Map description: Free your friend - Kaspar, and together with him, escape from these lands.

Comment 1: I started working on this map in winter, but I didn't have the time or desire to finish it :( Now I've functionally completed the map (made it playable). In reality, only 25% of what I planned has been implemented :( , but I'm not going to continue working on the map (I'm already forgetting what I did before).

Comment 2: This map is aimed at players who enjoy figuring out how to escape from what seems like an impossible situation. It features several puzzles.

Comment 3: To prevent the second hero from interfering when you skip a turn, select him and press "Z". Let him sleep, and we'll come to his aid later.

Comment 4: Keep in mind that the main character is a mage. Save the game in a separate save slot every week if you are worried about surprises.

May reason be with you...

I also wanted to add that I won't be providing walkthroughs for the first little while. Let people think, rack their brains... :smile33:
(if it's really difficult, you can ask in private).

Added 2 hours later
Attention, a flaw in Melchior's special ability has been fixed (in the previous version, Markel's special ability from testing remained) + the position of the crystal and the level 1 spell in the Sanctuary has been adjusted. ...(0.3)

Added 1 hour later
If anyone completes the map, please don't post a walkthrough for at least a week...

Why was Markela upset? What would have been a good start for him...:rolleyes:

It would have been too easy.
By the way, Melchior may look like a black man, but he's a mage who knows necromancy.... So be careful when leveling him up. :)
And the "terrifying" special ability is also quite good.

Has anyone at least completed the Dwarf campaign?

I started playing yesterday on Hero+MegaAI difficulty, let’s see how it goes... :)

MegaAI isn't really necessary, though... Although the computer might multiply its units; however, when I played, it didn't want to.

Yes, I mainly use this mod to prevent the AI from retreating as it usually does, and instead make it fight to the end. Overall, it's incredibly difficult on the hero, especially in the beginning, and it wasn't until level 5 that I realized I was actually playing as a mage o_0, without any spells, just a couple of mages and zombies. The leveling strategy isn't entirely clear either, especially since you have to fight undead first, and then dwarves. I guess I'll end up embarrassing myself and play as a Warrior o_0.

Well, it's not necessary to start with a hero the first time. Get the bird and take the fist - you can learn it almost at the very beginning.
I'll tell you that mentorship will be much more preferable. Then you can hire a lot of heroes.
It's difficult to get spells, so I leveled up a second hero, upgraded his bird and scholar, and then taught the main one.

This map has its own "Law" ;) (those who played Journey will understand).

Hmm, for the first time in my experience, the bird is in charge... :rolleyes: :D

Okay, "тык птичка" is one branch, and "ментор" is another. Got it, I understand the hint, I'll try to figure it out in this direction.

That's why I wrote that mentorship (i.e., an alternative) would be preferable later...

vadim_t

Wow, for the first time in my experience, the "bird" is the best option....

Don't we play multiplayer enough? ;) I'd like to get to the point: how far have you gotten, where are you stuck, what problems have you encountered, etc...? Or is everyone too shy? :)
If you need help with the walkthrough, I can give you a hint (not the solution itself) in a private message, or maybe even here. If you cheat on the map by "revealing the entire map," it will be much easier... But that's cheating :smile38: :)

Why cheat? I was just a few gold short of buying the map reveal... And I've never played multiplayer – my friends (those who are still alive) can barely manage to play solitaire on a computer.

On which location is the map almost bought?
33K isn't that much ;) It will be used for the castle later.
