Posts from Ideas for a revival.

Supreme, I haven't actually played the fifth game's campaign – I just don't have the time. So, I'd be happy to hear about the fifth game and suggestions regarding its revival. I'm glad there are people who care about creating a unified "Heroes" experience. I want to post the first chapter of the "Restoration" story here, which I've started writing. Share your opinions.

Lеха, should I retell it to you right here or in a private message?
I think it's better to do it here so that everyone who wants to can read it...

It’s better right here. This is directly related to the Restoration project. I’m still interested in your opinion about the beginning of the story; is it worth continuing? Thank you for participating in the project. Together, we can handle it.

Ah, it's a pity that it's impossible to transfer some of the coolest new features from Heroes 5 to the Heroes 3 engine...

To all participants of the Restoration project!!! I suggest we discuss our future activities. Will we continue?

Of course, we will!

If the project is still alive (I really hope it is), I can help with the text. I also know how to create maps, but I'm not up for it right now. By the way, did you know that there's also a "Revival" project on the DF2 forum? They're making a mod that combines Heroes and D&D.

Our Restoration project aims to unite all parts of Heroes into one cohesive story. I also hope that the project is still alive; people just have less free time right now. I hope that by summer, or even earlier, we will move forward.

Yes, at least we need to wait until the end of the session!

I was thinking about a solution to the problem of combining the settings of "The Restoration of Erathia" and "Darkside of Xeen" (both take place in a post-apocalyptic Xeen). The answer is simple, although a bit silly: During the Cataclysm, the universe split into two. In one, the world of dying Erathia evolved into Aschen (The Restoration of Erathia), and in the other, the world of Aschen was created and lived through its evolution over several hundred years, far from the Reborn Xeen (Darkside of Xeen). I agree, it's a bit of a stretch, but I can't think of anything else. And the fact that Sandro is in both can also be explained.

And why divide the world? The continents of Enroth simply changed so much after the cataclysm that they became completely different from what they used to be. And The Restoration will cover a maximum of two continents (Erathia and Enroth). And for The Ascension, there remains an entire continent, about which there wasn't much known even before, and after the cataclysm, a completely new story is unfolding there.

On one hand, it's good, but in Ascension, I planned to use many of the old races from Heroes 3, slightly modifying them, like Erathia (Elgarion), AvLi (Aquilon), etc. (see the first post about Ascension). If the events of Ascension only take place in Jadame, it won't be quite the same.

And then you could make it so that, for example, a new continent rises. And from Jadama and this new continent, new factions begin an expansion against the old ones. And you could create an interesting storyline around this.

Alexey, I think you misunderstood me a bit. It’s certainly possible to do it that way, but in *The Restoration of Erathia*, many of the plot points stem from how the old races survived in the world after the cataclysm. Both humans and elves, and even the pseudo-Chinese race, have connections to events before the cataclysm. In *The Restoration of Erathia*, the human race becomes the Haven faction, while in *The Shadow of Death*, it’s the Elgariol race. The storylines of the projects can be combined before the cataclysm, but they diverge afterward, and something needs to be done about that. As for the new continents, I think *The Shadow of Death* will have a completely different world map, and the familiar Enroth, Antagarich, and Jadame will not be on it (although I’m not 100% sure).

Of course, we will!

Just tell me honestly. How can you really help the project in practice? If only theoretically, then... there have always been, are, and will be more than enough theorists.

Andrey: Please, stop arguing with Tanya. You are both very dear to me. Saruman: Parallel worlds are not quite a successful concept. Wouldn't it be better to make it so that the world where the events of Ascension take place is a kind of crossroads between Enroth, Axeoth, and some world like Al-Terra (Earth). And at this crossroads, representatives of all worlds meet. And the point is that there is a constant system of portals there, which allows you to combine the plot.
