Map description: You are a witch who combines the power of nature and order. However, these two elements cannot reconcile with the existence of the other within you. And to calm them, you will need the power of Magdaline Aife and the Ice Scales to give them both their power and they will finally calm down. However, Kelkh, who lives in the mountains, stands in your way.

So, my fourth major project on the theme of Heroes of Might and Magic 6 is ready! I look forward to comments and bug reports.

Well... regarding the map, I can say only one thing for now: it's better than the previous ones. For example, the landscape is much more beautifully done... You know, I advise you to radically redo your map, Alexander, making the landscape more beautiful and of HIGHER QUALITY.
P.S. When you finish all the maps, be sure to upload them all in one archive, make it a complete gold collection :)

Just like your two previous maps, this one is also terrible. There's no plot, or rather, it's at the level of a preschooler.
A huge number of spelling mistakes. Moreover, the mistakes themselves are less annoying than the numerous typos, which indicate your inattentiveness and also a lack of respect for potential players, considering that you treat even something you enjoy so carelessly. And I also don't understand why you use two commas as quotation marks in dialogues? There's a special key for quotation marks on any keyboard.
Why do all your heroes have names from the original campaigns, but have different skills, portraits, and backstories? Is it really that hard to come up with your own names?
The scripts are also extremely primitive; you could have learned some decent techniques from other, more serious maps a long time ago.
I feel like I wanted to add something else, but for now, I think this is enough. This is definitely not a serious project.

I've been wanting to comment on Alexander and Conan for a while, but I didn't do it because I thought you weren't visiting the forum anymore. I'll comment on them later.

At least the landscape is better here.
And honestly, I don't think Maahira deserves such harsh criticism. He's (as I see it) a novice in mapmaking, and novices should be encouraged.

Well, he's been into map-making for at least a year now, and this is his fourth map, but there's no progress to be seen. And the maps are posted in the RPG section, even though they have nothing to do with it; it's just a typical "kill all enemies" scenario. Not a single quest house is filled with anything.
Although, we can probably make allowances for the author's age.

Is age an excuse? o_O I don't think so. If a person is 10-14 years old, then they should already be getting a good kick in the pants, IMHO. Especially if the map is for the third or fourth game – there's absolutely no such complexity here as in G5-G6, where you can't figure out even the basics without a good understanding.
I'll take a look at the map and get back to you.
Sincerely.
P.S. It's best to find a competent beta tester.

Yes, the fourth game is quite complicated. I still don't fully understand it. I find Heroes 5 and Heroes 3 easier.
Best regards.
