================================================
The map is conditionally divided into four areas, mostly covered with water. Northwest: sand + dirt, Northeast: lava, Southwest: grass + orcish, Southeast: snow.
Each area contains four dwellings (levels 1-4), 6 standard types of mines (+ 1 abandoned mine), various bonuses, resources, artifacts, spells, + 2 neutral towns.
Also, each area has a two-way portal leading to the "boots of levitation" artifact, and in addition, a powerful garrison consisting of randomly selected monsters of the type corresponding to the terrain on which it is located, guarding one of the keys of the Player's color who plays for the nearest town in the area.
In the center of the map is the Island of Legends, which can only be accessed by finding all four keys. On this island you will find several resources, artifacts, as well as "angel wings," allowing you to hover above the ground.
You can play as any race, absolutely any hero.

:( Not very good. Boring.

Downloaded the map – when I have time, I’ll definitely try playing it and will let you know how it goes.

It's just a multiplayer map – it doesn't aim for anything more :smile43:

I agree, no one needs multiplayer anymore, because it's easiest to create in Heroes 5, and that's why so many of them are made.

The AI in Heroes 5 is terrible; you need maps with difficulty-enhancing effects. Multiplayer doesn't have this quality.

Those who frequently play Multiplayer maps against other players don't hang out in these forums.

in fact, multiplayer means exactly that, and that's what distinguishes it from single-player: it's all about EQUALITY between players, because I planned for people to play it.
As for the AI's performance in such maps, the difficulty of completing them, etc., I have every right not to answer.

And it shouldn't.

I tried playing, and the map is indeed designed for multiplayer. It might be interesting to play with other people, but playing against the AI can be frustrating due to the constant loading times when boarding ships.

it was intended to be against humans =)

the AI behaves strangely; sometimes it stops moving altogether...

Decided to play this map and was very pleasantly surprised. The map is very well made for multiplayer. The only problem is that the bridge leading to the mage city is impassable. Otherwise, it's very good, with islands, rivers, and swamps. You could also add separate dungeons for some of the islands, but it's fine as it is.

Thank you. We will fix the bridge. This is the first map of this size, so we didn't have enough resources for the Dungeon. Thank you again. Hmm. I don't know what's wrong with the bridge. It works for me. Maybe I didn't upload the latest version...

Updated the map, fixed several bugs, including a non-functional bridge.
Enjoy the game!

My friends and I spent a long time looking for a map for 4 players, and finally, we thought we found one...
After a lot of preparation, we started the game. I played as a wizard on the first slot, and I appeared on an island with no trees, but I needed to buy a boat for 10 wood. That's when the game ended...

Added 4 minutes later
I think they overdid it with the islands, especially considering that the hero spends an entire turn boarding and disembarking from a ship. As a result, at the beginning, only 1 ship and 1 hero are doing anything.
