  • Heroes III Scenario

    Hi

    Andemage, are you still interested in playtesting my first scenario I just purchased the game yesterday and have nearly finished my first scenario... The only thing that remains to be done is to transfer 4 pages of handwritten text (story) onto the computer screen... If you want to wait (2 or 3 days) until I have the entire text written, please wait... because I hope that the story will give it a better feeling than it has without

    For playtesting notes: Story events currently will go up to day 68... But all I have written IN the story are up to Day 8. (Which is over 2 pages BTW )

    Oh well, thank you if you want to playtest it

    And good luck
    Here's the INTRO text file:

    Here's Version 0.9 of the scenario
    Or at least it would be if I could find WinZip in WinXP

    Perhaps someone knows where it is... could you please tell me where it is. Apolyton won't let me attach scen files unless they are zipped.

      mail it to one of the homm3 download sites, there are some of them fr omwhich you can download maps and scenarios etc, then just give us the link other people can use it too then..

      btw i'm alway interested in a good homm3 map!!

      i can advise angelic pride (and in a lesser degree titanic pride), these 2 maps i still remember very well so they must be worth it!!! (from the 400 maps i downloaded )

        Thanks! I'll try that when I get the final version-

        I think I created a work-around.

        Download it from my website: here

        EDIT: Nevermind... Apolyton won't link to a file it seems... I'll try to post it on a webpage when I have time. as it is I spent 15 minutes trying to link to a file

        oh well

        Thanks for the interest

          The Homm3 map I enjoyed the most was Lord Of War.

          An struggle of Epic proportions, to say the least. Other excellent maps are The Pen and the Sword and anything by Timothy Duncan.

            Just wondering- where can I find those?
            Any particular sites?

            --
            BTW- I should have the scen files on my website later tonight- I'll add some text events to the game when I get home.

              All H3 maps you'll ever need, and then some. If you're doing maps yourself, take a long, hard look at the maps that got top ratings.

                Okay- here I now have finally figured out how to zip the file -
                here's the text and the game...

                I'll search for those other games on astral wizard

                Currently I'm playing "scrowe"'s Hail to the King map and am stuck since I seem to need the spell Summon Boat or to find a boat and yet seem short both the spell and a boat... If I hack the map will It change the game that was saved? Or will I merely have to restart the game If I hack the map?

                Good luck with my map!

                  Ah yes, that file is the FULL file with the FULL story, by the way

                  So good luck with playtesting it!

                  -
                  Sadly I can't find Titantic Pride or Lord of War or the Pen and the Sword

                  I'm trying Duncan's map on Sander's Folly right now...

                        I don't have much time to play these days, so I like to stick with the goodies. You said you bought the game the day before you made this, is that so, DC? I'm a wee bit sceptical about your ability to turn out a classy, well-balanced map under those circumstances...

                          ...If it will make you feel any better- I have played 3 of the Heroes Chronicles games all the way through twice... so I do have some experience with game mechanics

                          Actually, I think it's fairly well balanced, but I'll cut the number of archers down by half and the number of pikemen you receive at the beginning... then it should be a bit more challenging...

                          Note: It took me 60 days to win the game at Hard difficulty

                          The basic overview of the game is that at the beginning you are always short of Ore... Just a hint

                          You play against 2 enemies.

                          You start with 1 city
                          The Yellow enemy has 2 cities
                          There are 2 neutral cities.
                          The blue enemy has 4 cities !

                          I would rate it as fairly hard... fairly interesting.

                          The story would rate with Adv. Gnoll, I would think at least, I hope it does

                          As for the challenge... I'm not an expert- but by judging from my statements, perhaps yo ucan decide- but if you cut the archers and pikemen in half, the game will be VERY challenging at least at the beginning.



                          There are ambushes everywhere in the game, but you are warned beforehand

                            Perhaps I'll give it a spinn then.

                              Thanks
                              -
                              Around GMT 00:00 I might post a revised version that cuts the # of archers and pikemen in half at the beginning... and revises some mispellings

                              But I might wait until Andemagne's review to make a more comprehensive revision... It depends on what you want

                              Thanks for the interest!

                              -
                              I am currently working on a different type of scenario... one with quest guards, etc. and will try to learn from any possible mistakes in this one to make it much better!

                              Good luck!

                              Final Note: I rate my scenario a C+ if you are REALLY good at the game, but a B if you are AVERAGE at the game If you're agressive you'll have more fun than if you are conservative and wait out the game... because only one of the enemies will continuously attack you
