Yes, I think I'll try "Infernal Conquest" next. Besides, the reviewer suggests that someone translate it into Russian; I'm not saying I know English very well, but I can give it a try. :)
Is this cape the "King of the Undead's Cloak"? It doesn't seem to be available either. Maybe this art needs to be collected?
:smile01: Chingis, exactly! And its 3 components are just lying around in one place... There, in the comments, Sir SuperStar wrote:
I found at least two ways to win (besides the obvious one).
So it should be beatable. But please: so as not to kill your interest in "Heroes," at least the first time, play it for fun, and then try to beat it as fast as possible! ;)

Map"Lake of Plague", 200% rating.

Played for 105 days. You can play faster. But it's getting boring. There are no resources or artifacts on it.
There are many custom maps where the abundance of resources and artifacts is so overwhelming that it's practically dripping off the screen:D

Yeah, I'm tired of playing for speed.
Don't play every map for speed. Then the interest won't fade.

Don't try to play every map as fast as possible. That way, you won't lose interest.
You should play for speed in tournaments where there is competition between participants; this increases interest. Or, as an alternative, if you really want to play, try maps from past tournaments, where you can compare your result with the winner.

Chingis, once I finish "Darkness Strikes," I'll definitely start "Infernal Conquest"! Then I'll share my experience. Of course, if someone doesn't do it before me. Discussions about completing various single-player, fan-made maps can be found on other websites, including English-language ones.

Please tell me where I can download maps for the Platinum version, because the game doesn't recognize any of the maps I've downloaded so far. I want to have a lot of maps available.

There are tons of different maps on heroesportal.net.

If you have the Platinum version, there may be two reasons why the game "doesn't see" the maps:
a) you placed them in the wrong folder, not in the Maps folder;
b) these are maps from the WoG version: to play them, you need the WoG mod, otherwise they really won't appear in the list.
There are many maps on HeroesPortal, but they are all very different. Try downloading and running something from there that you like based on the picture, description, and reviews.

Yeah, but you need to be careful with that: there are archives where all 3000+ maps are collected at once – the game can’t handle that many maps at once (I read it somewhere, but I don’t remember exactly).

I read that WOG is a complete mess of a version, full of bugs, but it has a lot of new features. Level 8 monsters, I think they really need to remake Heroes 3, with different graphics and 64-bit instead of 32-bit. Then it will be even more popular than Heroes 5 and 6.

They really need to remake the third game, give it different graphics.
They already did. Twice. As a result, we got the fourth and fifth games.

We've already reworked it twice. In the end, we got versions 4 and 5.

I think if we were to redo version 3, the most successful approach would be to keep the same gameplay style, the same factions, the same turn order, and the same balance. We could add 1-2 races.
Improve the graphics, make the AI smarter, and make the AI in battles very strong, up to the level of a strong chess player, depending on the difficulty. Then the game would be priceless.

And so that ordinary, newly-minted players would perish at the hands of this AI on the first level, thus cutting off the replenishment of the ranks of Heroes players!
P.S. Don't touch Heroes!!! In my opinion, everything is fine, and making the AI smarter is already absurd - firstly, where have you seen skilled bots? Secondly, who would need such bots that crush everyone... the game in online mode would completely lose its meaning, even if it's without AI, people will just dominate the neutral creatures...

Just place your units and play. Besides, fewer and fewer new players are joining, with each year there are less and less. The game is losing its popularity, that's a fact. It's more aimed at old players. For them, such a game would breathe new life into it.

There's no one to touch! That's the problem.

I need them, and many other people do too. If the AI's strength is not out of thin air, but it really plays on its own, that would be very cool.

And who needs such an online mode anyway! Sitting around waiting 20 minutes for a turn. Or just take and set the desired level on the computer: from a newbie to Forest with Paladin and play :D

Besides, there's always:

the good old Sod

It's a pity that it was only talked about and then forgotten...

Let's not forget that the computer doesn't follow the rules... if it's smart enough, it will use a diplomacy mod to gain a huge advantage, rush in during the second or third week, and wipe you out... or it will overwhelm you with a mage and blue sprites... so be careful what you wish for! No one thinks about the negative consequences!)
P.S. I won't even mention author-made maps, because the computer won't give you a chance there.
P.P.S. I'm not talking about the length of its turn, because the computer shouldn't take that long, as there's quick combat...
