So, now our Tavern has its Xmas tree lit with bright lights, and that means the Christmas holidays are near. Meanwhile, we are preparing presents for you. Holidays are always a good occasion to make presents, so we decided to announce a special New Year action for your pleasure. In period from December 24 till January 24, our exchange rate is 200 @ for 1 USD, which means that if you transfer money to us via one of the systems (does not apply to the SMS system), you'll get twice as much arroba s usually, also helping us to support the HeroesPortal and the future prize tourneys in the upcoming new year.
And the first unformal meeting of Heroes Portal citizens in 2007 will be on January 6, near the Opera Theatre in Lvov (Ukraine) at 13:00. Please inform us of any Heroes Portal meetings in your towns by telling about them in our Tavern. For the game is only a reason, and friendship is the goal! :) Until we meet!
We also remind that our team still needs a designer living in Kiev (Ukraine) and offline tourney managers for Heroes IV and Heroes V.
Attention players! Final saves for current Main, Trade Guild and Landless tourneys must be re-sent to [email protected] Tourney deadlines will not be changed. New final saves will also be accepted at [email protected]. Sorry for the inconveniences.
Today we've opened a new table in our English Tavern, dedicated to the
game Heroes of Malgrimia II: Necromancers Invasion.
