Today, the voting for the Knights of the Round Table of the Eighth Convocation has started. Voting will last until October 4th 2007. We accept your voting letters at gorbik@heroesportal.net.
Starting with the next round of "Common" offline tourneys in all Heroes Lands versions, after forming your personal starting saves we will take taxes for the used property. You may see the tax sum in your "castle" profiles, when you choose artifacts and monsters to aid you in your battles on the map.
After forming a save and sending it to the player (and after taking the tax), the "Receive saves" check-mark will be automatically reset, and you will have to choose your artifacts and monsters again for the next tourney. By these measures, we want to increase the players' responsibility in managing their property, make them plan their strategies for every map, and confirm the necessity of creating personal saves for them before every tourney.
Today we have more news for you about Heroes Lands I and our feud maps.
In Heroes Lands I, we have started a mapmakers competition. We've also set feud's price (5000@) and maximum tourney reward (1000@).
We have also updated the feud maps in Heroes Lands II, III, IV and V. If you have any question about the feud maps, you can ask Lady Ara, who is responsible for this section.
Be patient until all the images are loaded. By clicking on a small preview image, you will open the full-sized feud map.
Today, according to recomendations of the Knights of the Round table of the 7th Convocation, we introduce changes to the terms of using of the "Angels of Well-being". You will find the new description for this unique artifact in our Market, and it is as follows:
This artifact is displayed in player's profile, and near his messages in the Tavern. It means that your behaviour is in line with all Portal's standards, and that your actions contribute to Portal's development in general. You may purchase this artifact yourself by sending an e-mail letter to the Magistracy and choosing a citizen profile (regardless of the rank, including your own profile) to which the artifact will be applied. Remember, that when you accumulate SIX Angels of Well-being, you can exchange them for:
1) A feud in any Heroes Lands, but only if number of the feuds in the chosen version before was no more than 4 (four).
2) Two different mines of your choice in any game versions.
3) Any artifact/monster or a number of artifacts/monsters in any game versions with total price up to 5000@ (but no more than 3 (three) in every version), not counting the price of the mines. Mines for the higher monsters/artifacts still must be paid. You can also choose a more expensive artifact and pay the difference (e.g. 3400@ for Angelic Alliance, which costs 8400@).
4) Any unique artifact from the following list:
a) Land decree of the second degree;
b) Finger of Destiny + Swindler’s thimble + Thimble damaged;
c) Royal decree of the first degree + Gremlin’s hammer of destruction + Black Sand
5) 5000@.
Angels of Well-being can be removed by Clouds of Anger.

The Collegium aims on raising the quality of maps in HeroesPortal's collection and stirring up individual work with the authors. Today we have opened a hidden unmoderated table for the Collegium in our Tavern, where its members can discuss maps and actions of the Collegium. Now the new maps will be properly commented after posting, and authors will be offered help with fixing bugs and mistakes, should they need it. As we wait for your maps, we are also planning to further add to the functionality and convenience of our Maps section.
The war between the Damned and the Living is over. It shaked every continent in Heroes Lands. The battles spread to all game versions and all disciplines (online, offline, even mapmaking!). The war ended in defeat of the Damned, but some warriors still clash in the newly opened duel round. The war between the Light and the Darkness is never-ending indeed.
The new offline tourney round has been opened as well. Results of the Summer season of online tourneys are available, and we are especially happy about the Heroes Lands III, which featured 96 players in this discipline. Signing for the Autumn season is open in Heroes Lands II, Heroes Lands III, Heroes Lands IV, Heroes Lands V. Join the Game!
