You could always download it.

I assume that if we play all will play random? So that one avoid tower\solemyr, or stronghold\craghak on small maps ect

Anyway I would be up for a game over hamachi in the next days if people are up for it.

Well to my knowledge, HOMM3 has been discontinued and downloading it from a torrent shouldnt fall in the "illegal". Anyways, PM me if you want to setup a match. i got free time from 21:30 CET to 06:00 CET (14:30 to 21:00 central time US)

Probably no one cares about downloading "abandonware" (i.e. games which you can't buy anymore), but it's still illegal, mind you. Because the copyrights remain. Sure this is stupid, but that's how current copyright law is in the age of the internet.

Ah, I had so much fun abusing Warfare and War Machine modifications in WoG. My brother and I felt so proud when we finally beat Pestilence Lake on Expert. 2v1, we though; should be easy :D.

No it's not legal, the authorities on the other hand don't go after you unless you pirate stuff in a company environment or whatever. Technically, you can still be sued for downloading stuff.

Sorry to bump but I'm having a weird problem with HOMM3 when I try to play it with a friend. Whenever one of us hosts, the other gets "Receiving map headers from host" forever. We've tried this on both Hamachi and Gameranger but it doesn't seem to change anything. The only difference is when I host, he says he can see me in the game/what I'm saying on ingame chat, but he doesn't show up on my player list and I can't see his chat. When he hosts, he can see me and what I type, and I can see him on the player list, but I still can't see anything he types on ingame chat.

I tried googling this issue but the only real suggestion offered was to remove all maps from the map folder except for one, which we did, and it didn't help. It seems like everyone who had this problem and asked about it that I could find through google just disappears without giving any information about how they solved this problem, or if they solved it at all. Anyone have any suggestions?

As far as I know, when hosting it chooses randomly from a wide range of ports with only a few preset ones. Had similar issues last time I wanted to host a game and I tried opening the ports it needed... went, 'fuck it' and opened everything. Pinpointing whatever you need opened is a hassle because it changes them between sessions (i.e. new ports whenever you rehost).

Hi, I made a Giant map (~6x XL map) for HotA (Horn of the Abyss) extension. This is a fan made extension that adds 1 castle and new objects while keeping most of Heroes 3 unchanged. To play it you need Heroes 3: Shadow of Death and download HotA, for example from here: http://www.vault.acidcave.net/file.php?id=500

My map has been very warmly welcomed by the community and been called by many to be the best out there, hence I'm sharing with you the latest (and probably final version of it): http://www.maps4heroes.com/forum/opinions.php?game=3&map_id=1431

For those of you that decide to give it a shot, I suggest to download a HD Luncher extension that will the game look much better and also improves the UI a lot: https://sites.google.com/site/heroes3hd/eng/download

About the map:

- You can select any of 6 castles and you start in roughly same, balanced position
- Difficulty level is very high so consider taking 200% only if you are an expert at HoMM, otherwise start with a lower difficulty as map would still be tough.
- This is the maximum size of a map you can make so prepare for a loong game
- I've spent roughly 10 months to make, obviously with periods where I didn't touch it but well.. that was a lot of time and effort.

Good luck

heroes 3 was great. i never played multiplayer though, just hot seat comp stomps with friends. seems like multiplayer 1v1 would be too stressful

i was able to beat campaign on hardest difficulty but had to abuse save/load. that's cause your heroes transfer between levels, and once you get expert earth magic or even expert air magic IT IS ALL OVER. expert earth gives you a town portal that lets you return to any castle, and of course expert air magic gives you dimension door. both spells are broken. combined doesnt matter how tough the CPU is. other tactics i abused were getting a super fast unit - faster than whatever the fastest enemy unit was, loading it on a non campaign hero with expert in some magic type, and then hitting an enemy hero within range of castle. i would cast chain lightning at match start, then immediately surrendering. since my unit would be fastest, i would be guaranteed first move. since i would only have one unit in my army, surrender would be cheap. then i would immediately re hire hero in castle, and repeat over and over again until enemy army had been whittled down by repeated chain lightning casts. then i could just TP my campaign hero in and wreck shop.

i went to a heroes forum and mind was blown by how advanced the tactics were. building lots of mule heroes so that you could transport/transfer entire troops in a turn or 2. unsurprisingly, i learned that spells like dimension door and TP were BANNED since it was so unbalancing if one side got it and the other didnt, since mage guild spells are random
