Dr Super Good:
Very good map, fun and enjoyable. A bit slow but you are sure to enjoy it, atleast for a few games. This map should definatly be tried. Does get boring thou if played a lot.

 

[ParadoX[off]]

[Dr Super Good]

This is the lattest offical heroes and empires 1 version, yours is probably a stone old beta or a heroes and empires 2 version.

Nice map, but I have found defending my empire from the neutral raids very hard despite keeping a large army, high-tech towers and researches. The game takes ages to finish (we actually played it for 3 hours then quit because it started to get boring). Most of the players emoquit in the first 10 minutes because the game is a little more complicated than a melee game for your average Dota player, but everything should be self-explanatory since the tooltips tell your everything you need. I have played it three times so far, always started with maximum players and both three times there were only three of us left in the 20th minute..

I still think that everyone who likes the strategy/rpg genre should try this out at least once.

[ArnaudB]

yes it does have IA, and also there is some people who want to improve this map (like map), anyway the IA isn't others empires & Heroes but there is 2 others forces that fight and send waves to players, you can choose their difficulty at the start of the map.

You're right; this isn't Joe the DotA Player's map. However, that's one of the things i like about it. I dislike simple maps (and DotA but for a different reason), so this map is right in my field of interest
Quite a bit of common sense is also a prerequisite for being a successful empire.

Playing an empire takes a lot more practice than a Hero, but it is also a must to have a balance of the two. Pretty much the only way to win it in the end is to have the same number of empires as heroes so that the heroes can defend the empires and blow up the Obelisks when they show up, while the Empires all have enough time to get decent defenses so that they can hold the enemy patrols at bay while the allied heroes get in to the fray.

And yes it does take forever. The empires are amazingly underpowered at the beginning, meaning that their only chance for survival is to have a few good heroes (preferably warriors and archers) on call. However, if the empires can hold out long enough, Laser Soldiers and Wraiths (especially Stealth Wraiths) are amazingly effective.

I still think that everyone who likes the strategy/rpg genre should try this out at least once.

You're right; it is a real must-play.

Gotta aggre with assassinv82 tough you can actually beat the game alone, or with only empires, heroes aren't so much needed you just need experience. Also the profile infantry is completely uberpower since it affect all the units you can have for most of the time, the truly way with infantray is to block at the start with a few units, build some defence to slow the enemy and an anti-heroes tower, then you RUSH to renaissance age, and you got the musketters costing 40gold & 200 wood with generally 600 hp at this point, and so you should be unbeatable at this point.

found a new strategy (late game, as usual)
Aircraft profile
tech aircraft
the Tier 2 tech aircraft combines amazing attack speed and power with the SIEGE DAMAGE it takes to knock out a camp or an obelisk.
the Tier 3 tech aircraft combines speed, durability, and amazing firepower. My last solo game, i killed Kalenden with 2 flights of Tier 2 Barrage Fighters and 1 flight of Tier 3 Stealth Wraiths. (1 flight = 12 planes)
And that fleet took out all the initial defenders AND Kalenden.
And i hadn't maxed any upgrade tech.
Difficulty was normal or strong i think, so this isn't just a noob's way out.


The big problem with musketeers and the like is that they are useless against structures. This problem can be handled with heroes, but it's extremely inconvenient. (I mean, come on, i can kill an equipment camp or an obelisk with 6 heavy cavaliers and 6 heavy horse archers, but not with 60 Laser Soldiers. Even if i sent all 72 units in at the same time, the cavalry would destroy the buildings.)

I remember playing this a while ago, before I took my hiatus from WarCrack. The version was avour v85.x -- Yes. Obviously a typo, so it should be around v8.5.

Anyway, this is a very good map, but mansions tend to lag. Lol.

 

[Rendigo38]

Good map, once I played as a Warrior Builder and I somehow got units converted rarely, like I had a Death Knight and a Dreadlord that was converted moving to attack the Warrior Builder then stops when it reaches the Warrior Builder.

 

[Krl70]

great map except that if any empire hire a hero, its gonna get like 6000 dmg in 20 min, and then they just rush in to your empire and kill all you got, while you still are in enlightment age.

and also as a hero its pretty boring to stand guard and not be able to leave the city because after 30 sec there is gonna come some kaelden's forces guy and one-hit all the buildings

so my final conclusion is (drums)
60/100
heroes are overpowered
Kaelden's forces are overpowered
empires are underpowered
