1) Clan "Black Bone" has been disbanded, as one of its members have became a King. You can see the list of the remaining clans in the Clans section.
2) We continue actively rescripting and redesigning our portal. Unfortunately, these works have led to a database fault and we had to restore the data on 15.08.07 00:00. All transactions made on 15.08.07 before 23:00 have been cancelled, we've also lost some messages in the Tavern in this period. We are sorry for the inconveniences.
3) We continue working to renew the Property transfer and Tourneys pages. You may tell what you think about their functioning here. We will certainly take take it into consideration to make these pages better.
Thanks for understanding and all your help in HeroesPortal development.

Artifact market changes
12.08.2007

The following changes have been made to all of the artifact markets in Heroes Lands:
1) Gremlin’s small hammer of destruction and Îrc’s torch of destruction won't be available for purchase anymore. Now you can only win them as prizes in a tourney.
2) Functions of Finger of Destiny and Amulets of the Dragon Lord of First, Second and Third degrees have been changed. See the new descriptions in the market.
3) We no longer use the SMS extra payment system for some of our artifacts. The payment is now accepted only by Western Union or Webmoney.
We remind that some of our artifacts/monsters for the offline tourneys can be used only after extra payment with real money. If you wish to add such artifacts to your starting saves, you should take the following steps:
1. Buy them on the market for arroba.
2. Make an extra payment with real USD (see the methods below).
3. Write an e-mail to gorbik@heroesportal.net as follows:
"Please add to my starting save for GAME VERSION, YOUR NICKNAME IN ENGLISH, YOUR PROFILE ID the following artifacts: Amulet of Mana (price 2 USD) NUMBER OF ITEMS, Helm of Heavenly Enlightenment (price 5 USD) NUMBER OF ITEMS. Payment was made by: SPECIFY PAYMENT METHOD. Total transfer sum: SPECIFY TOTAL PAYMENT SUM."
Total price of the artifacts may be less than the sum you've transferred. You may use up your account gradually. The artifacts are NOT removed from your profile, but the price in USD, specified in the market, is for a single use of single artifact/monster in single tourney. You'll have to write such an e-mail before every tourney where you want to use your artifacts.

All the changes to the markets have been discussed with the Knights of the Round Table of 7th Convocation.

The World War in Heroes Lands have started!

Today the Damned have launched an attack on the Order of Paladins. A swift, quiet, silent and cruel attack.

One of the guards tried to blow the alarm horn, but uttered just a few gurgling sounds before falling with a shuriken in his throat. City gates were taken over and the unholy cavalry of Death knights rushed to lay waste upon the land... But the living have organized a thick defense.
Today we open 10 offline duels in Heroes Lands III, two duels in Heroes Lands II and one offline duel in Heroes Lands IV. Everyone is invited to watch the battles or make their bets on the winners!
