Wow, Valery, VERY impressive post and screens! I see you did a lot. When I test it - I will write my opinion.

Yes, all maps Valery differ the non-standard. Well, there will be time and "the fast Internet", I will download it.

Great job! Downloading now!

I will change to a free and fast link once Maps4heroes host it (if they agree, seeing that it is so huge)

Well, it's been a very hard work indeed, Valery. I supose it looks like a stand-alone mode or something equal to that. And I sure this work is worth to be tested.

Superb! On Monday I'm downloading it...Looking forward to test it.
I'm glad that there are still people who can create wonderful thing and don't give up.

На русский не планируется перевода?
TRANSLATED: Is someone planning to translate map into Russian?
ANSWER: Yes, Aleee is working on it.

Here is the last update and I don't think I will do another, as I covered all aspects.

Updated: map and read me txt.
Texts completed and revamped, scripts added, more hints (even blind you can play it now)
At his demand, James Vogan removed from mapmakers list.


Map and read me

2Valery:
Fantastically! IMO it's best of the best maps 4 Heroes 3.5. //sorry 4 my bad English

Valery, will translate into Russian? (Sorry my English is bad)

так пиши по-русски. по-моему так он лучше тебя поймет.

I would love to, but it has about 200 pages of txt due to customized quests.
But I promise next maps will have only minimum of text, so translation will not be a problem and my russian friends can enjoy them.

жаль.....
