"The Six Strangers" by Gibblets
Hi everyone, I've been working on my map The Six Strangers for over a year now and I feel it is ready for a public test.
6 Strangers
The map is 2 level, Extra Large and designed for 6 human or computer players plus 2 mandatory computer opponents(one up and down). Each player starts in a race specific region that they share with one of the two enemy AI. The first priority is to work together with the other enemy players to defeat the computer controlled opponent who owns the other half of your race specific regions. Then consolidate your region and head out into the rest of the map where there are plenty of teleports to move quickly into an enemies territory (for an Extra Large map, that is), 3 special zones per level and of course the other 5 players.
I recommend you explore every region in the map, as all are visually appealing and unique. I also recommend playing it on hard and using the new HoMM5.5 Eternal Essence AI, as it provides a better challenge and much faster computer turn times.
*notes - The Navigation skill is useless on this map, as testing has shown ships were detrimental to the pace and flow of the game (pun intended  )
- This map facilitates high level hero fights, but does not restrict you from playing a faster lower level game.
- For the Dwarven team I replaced the usual resource system (Ore pit, Sulfur mine, etc) with Dwarven Mines and a Trading Post.
- As usual, eye-candy galore
- There is a Spell Merchant and Memory Mentor located in each of the Special Zones, among many other things.
I encourage you to post all relevant comments in this thread, and my friend Markkur will pass them along to me. Thank You, and have fun!
