Could you also share the save file? That would be faster.

I would gladly do so, but I can't find the saves in Might & Magic VIII. They are not in the games folder, although they launch properly. Searching for *.CGM1 and *CGM yielded no results.

because the saves are *.GM1, not *.CGM1
campaign saves - CGM1
single saves - GM1

Added after 1 hour 24 minutes

I suggest saving in the game, giving it an obvious name like "pomazokHW", and then simply searching your computer for the save file name pomazokHW; it will be easier that way.

Thank you, Pomazok1329.
I'll send it tonight as soon as I get home.

Here is the latest save.

The armor is located behind a tree, hidden there. You can occasionally use the spells Air Vision and Earth Vision; sometimes it helps.)
There shouldn't be any other difficulties.

There is also an unpleasant moment - the 21st month. The map can be completed in a maximum of 7-8 months. After the 20th month, there may be bugs in the game (too many resources), and the turn may freeze, so maybe a simpler map would be better?)

Thank you!!!!! Oh my god, I waited for so many months because of those cursed armor pieces, and they were hidden right there...
I will get rid of resources and excess gold; if it freezes, I will start over again, unfortunately, it's not the first time. The map is great, and it's a matter of principle.

Simple maps are a bit boring; I'm currently playing Jedy's Story, I eliminated the green dragons, and I will continue.
I read about Paragon on the forum; I will try it on the weekend.

The problem is that it usually freezes because of the AI, meaning that some cities, due to events, can generate gold every day/week/another period... and also monsters (like the Tower of Rissa, for example).
By the way, in Jedy Story, there is such a thing, and the AI's growth is faster than the player's.

Is there any priority for the Russian translation over the English one?
I can recommend a couple of maps specifically in Russian (besides Paragon and Jedy Story, I don't remember any others where Russian was the original language).

There is no priority; I play with both Russian and English maps, the main thing is that the map is interesting. By the way, sometimes there are differences between them. In the map "Insomnia," unlike its English version, "Insomnia," blue is an ally. This may also be observed in other maps.

I played German maps; it's hard to understand the description :D, but I defeated the AI even without knowing the language. I haven't tried Chinese maps yet; I downloaded a couple of maps but haven't decided yet because of the stories about how difficult they are.

In the map "Besonnitsa," unlike its English version "Insomnia," blue is the ally. This might be observed in other maps as well.

I played German maps, but I couldn't understand the descriptions :D, but I still beat the AI without knowing the language. I haven't tried Chinese maps much yet; I downloaded a couple of maps but haven't decided yet, based on the stories about how difficult they are.

One of the most interesting maps, for the widest audience (unlike Paragon), my rating is 9/10, I recommend it.
Lord of the Rings 3.0

I can recommend Metataxer's Revenge to a wide audience. It's challenging, and sometimes a bit tedious, but still within acceptable limits.

Lord of the Rings 3.0

Thank you, I will try to repeat Frodo's feat).

And I finally completed "Wings of the Sky", thank you so much for the hint!!
True, in 21 months, both the neutrals and the enemies grew to legions, but "it's better not to anger the girl, or things will get bad:D". Moner found a tent, Rissa defeated them in one go, and 8000 Wizards joined along the way.
It was harder with the white tent; it was guarded by 4000 fairy dragons. Moner defeated them, losing almost his entire army, but in return, he learned the teleport spell and returned home to gather his forces.
And the main hero, after drinking a pack of ozverin, defeated the legions of hippos and other creatures:D, and captured a couple of neutral castles with taverns. There, he resurrected the previously killed blue hero and transferred the extra artifacts. Then, he defeated Elshar with his brother; in his castle, Moner met a friend and became a support hero.
They went to the Dungeon to Arlak; upon seeing me, he hid in the castle. Legions of black dragons gathered between his castles. The vision showed that 4000 of them wanted to join. He defeated the hostile ones, took the friendly ones, plus another 4000, and the rest fled. Arlak tried in vain to merge with the walls of his native castle - it didn't help.
He went to the pink one, defeating Fafnir with his harem, and received 2 pairs of wings in return. He gave one to Moner - he deserved it! let him fly). He flew to the main enemy - the blue one, who attacked himself and immediately died. The end!)

Thank you, I will also try it; I have already downloaded it. Not all maps are displayed for me; I need to clean it up..

I tried Vengeance is mine - the game doesn't work yet; I don't have time to take a castle in 7 days.

Vengeance is mine is also a confusing and tedious map, in the style of "find a hidden artifact/passage." I don't remember any beautiful tactical solutions there. Perhaps they exist, but I didn't need them during my playthrough. It's roughly the same as Wayfarer, but a bit easier.

For the widest audience, is that sarcasm? For the first couple of days, you can't get through it without watching a YouTube video. The timing is strict.
These are the maps where you absolutely have to do everything as the author intended. To every move point, to every monster.

Among the unusual ones
Each one in this search deserves attention. One is easy, a couple are medium, and the rest are hardcore.

Lord of the Rings 3.0 is quite challenging. Frodo with just one half-elf companion, Bilbo isn't much better, Theoden and Isildur were killed right away, Gandalf broke through one defense line but can't handle the second, diplomacy doesn't work. He won't last long either. Hmm... let's see how to survive).
