Life of Heroes Portal and Heroes of Might and Magic Universe
10.12.2005

There is a fresh update to our Clans section! Hail the new clan, Gladiators. Now we have 15 clans registered at our Heroes Portal. Why not drink to it in the Tavern?

Another round of Common Tourneys has ended recently. And now, while the administration is preparing a New Year surprise for you, you may take part in the tourneys we told you about in the previous news. There also is a new tourney "The speediest". A  characteristic feature of that tourney is that inhabitants of any rank may take part in it, playing on equal terms with others. So, are you ready to prove your superiority over those playing in the High League?

We would also like to inform you that the international online tourney between "Heroes Portal" and "Jaskinia Behemota" still goes on, and the latest score is 6:6 !!! Support the Heroes Portal's players here

If you want to take part in these tourneys, please enter them by leaving a request in the topics, links to which you see above. Note that in the Heroes of Might and Magic IV tourney you may use the Heroes of Might and Magic IV: Equilibris version.

New scrolls in our Library
4.12.2005

The books in our Library are getting more and more. And today we added folios and sections dedicated to Heroes of Might and Magic I.

If you wish to supplement our Library with your own game analysis, please write to Sir Àyreon or in our Tavern. For now, these sections are in Russian, but the English translation is under way.

A contest for the mapmakers is open (for maps of size L)

On the threshold of the New Year we begin a big contest for the mapmakers. It will last for exactly two months - until February 1st inclusive.

Here are the rules:
1. Only maps of size L will be accepted, but for any versions of HMM3 and HMM4. And only maps with an underground level (L-2) may pretend to get the awards B and C!
2. The contest maps are NOT divided by the game version (that is, HMM3, HMM3.5 and HMM4 maps will go for the same awards).
3. There will be the following three nominations for the contest maps:
a) the most beautiful map (i.e. a picture-map; besides, the outward appearance (form, landscape) should combine with inward beauty);
b) best single-player map (the most interesting single-player scenario; RPG-maps with good storyline are preferred);
c) best multiplayer map (the most balanced map, good for playing online or in Portal's tourneys).
4. The contest maps should be sent at logan@heroesportal.net. Map filename should be in English (or at least in latin letters), and the subject must specify the desired nomination; a brief map description (if in Russian) should also be present in the letter.
5. All mapmakers who will send a contest map based on a story from the life of Heroes Lands or their inhabitants, will get an additional bonus (150@) after the contest is finished.
6. Winner's prize in every nomination is 2500@, the Foremost Scroll of Knowledge (HMM2) and a memorable status in his profile ("Winner of the map contest - 2005")! Prize for the second place is 1000@ and the Major Scroll of Knowledge, for the third place - 500@ and the Minor Scroll of Knowledge.
Good luck to all mapmakers!
