Disagree. Maybe it's matter of opinion, yet for me these few HotA maps are well made, well told and somehow absorbing. Even if campaign is again about searching an overpowered ancient artifact and killing the bad guys. But hey - isn't it what HoMM (or even MM) is mainly about?
But I agree that in the next version there has to be a map editor. And at least a little bit more maps. It would be also great if they had not only one but two next new campaigns, but I guess it could be a little bit too much for one version.
Besides - shouldn't you check the subject before talking about it? Because I'm not sure if you're talking about 1.0 beta or 1.1 version. And believe me, there is a difference.

I can confirm new maps will come with the next version according to the forums. One of them is a remake of Pirate Utopia from Heroes II.

I am more interested by HoTA switching to erm language, so we can use it. Or translate, or modify to our likes. Hex digging is not for everyone.

That's great, but I can also confirm that there probably won't be any map editor in the next version which for me sucks.
But at least I can use the WoG one and hex editing, and that's a good thing.

I guess it wouldn't happen. At least not "switching". Sav worships reverse engineering, not using ERA nor VCMI, and he stated that clearly in many posts. But well - maybe eventually we will have some tools to modify HotA stuff in an easier way.
Anyway - HotA isn't exactly for modders, rather for players. But that's not what you said before actually. Make up your mind, please.

Nor the modding is, I believe.

The WoG one works in the meantime.
How to hex edit the heroes though?

...various?
Ok, seriously - the point is what do you want to change in map. An my way to achieve this is trying. This is what hex editing is actually about - checking what does this, what does that and comparing many things.

I can't wait for HotA in English. I want to send the HotA team a message: thank you, we REALLY appreciate your work and this is the REAL Heroes that we've been waiting for ages... I hope the rumour is true - 24th December - All I want for Christmas is ...HotA!

Rainer, you old dog! Your avatar looks like Sir Christian after he got stomped by a pack of behemoths! The horror in his eyes shows that he's afraid to show his ugly mug around!... What was the last score, 90-90? What would you say about a Cove vs Cove? This year, Santa is coming from Russia!

Well, if it's compatible with WoG and playable on Linux/Wine this might be a very interesting mod. Really!
