Idea/question

Is there any homm2-based wog scripts/maps? I remember someone was going to make a map based to homm2 factions and creatures, but donīt remember who and if it was ever finished.

I could imagine it is not hard to make a script which removes lvl7 buildings and rearranges all the creatures and edits their stats the same way as it was in h2.

All homm2 creatures still exist in game, so it would be easy:

Castle:
1. Peasant
2. Pikemen --> Veteran Pikemen
3. Archer --> Ranger
4. Swordsman --> Master Swordsman
5. Cavalry --> Champion
6. Paladin --> Crusader

Necro:
1. Skeleton
2. Zombie
3. Mummy --> Royal Mummy (hereīs problem cause in h3 there isnīt more than one mummy)
4. Vampire --> Vampire Lord
5. Lich --> Power Lich
6. Bone Dragon

Wizard:
1. Halfling
2. Boar (okay, hereīs the problem because in H3 there is a goblin riding it)
3. Iron Golem --> Steel Golem
4. Roc
5. Mage --> Arch Mage
6. Giant --> Titan

Warlock:
1. Centaur
2. Gargoyle
3. Griffin
4. Minotaur --> Minotaur King
5. Hydra
6. Green Dragon --> Red Dragon --> Black Dragon

Sorceress:
1. Sprite
2. Dwarf --> Battle Dwarf
3. Elf --> Grand Elf
4. Druid --> Greater Druid (use monk&zealot)
5. Unicorn
6. Phoenix

Barbarian:
1. Goblin
2. Orc --> Orc Chieftain
3. Wolf (problem with wolf because thereīs goblin riding it in H3)
4. Ogre --> Ogre Lord
5. Troll --> War Troll
6. Cyclops

Neutral:
Rogue
Nomad
Ghost
Genie (Halve could be scripted)
Medusa
4 Elementals

Anybody?

Unlisted problems:

There isn't a readily available upgrade to the Troll.

And also, you don't have the units to support both swordsman->master swordsman and paladin->crusader.

Yes, those I forgot!

But something could be worked out.
One thing I noticed too:
-The available troll has not shooting animation. (but in fact, we could use ogre mage as a war troll and ogre leader as a ogre lord)

You are right, the script is easy (aside from the Genie's ability, which needs some thinking). I'm afraid you won't find an artist for the new graphics, though.

If you (or somebody else) was willing to make such a map (re-do an H2 classic, perhaps?), I'd write the script.

By the way, I'm surprised myself nobody has ever made an H2 mod.

At least someone was making some time ago, but I donīt remember who. I donīt even remember if the thread about it was here, in library or in maphaven.

it would be cool... Some little mistakes like zombie upgrades to zombie mutant, but that's no point...

And talking about barbarian town-in HoMM3 Cyclopes throws rocks... They don't attack with laser-eye..

Well, Mitzah is still around, I think...

OR we could just edit the old H3 "Enroth" map...?

its very hard job, because here is only 6 levels of creatures in each castle, so it is needed to edit the exe file, to not to use the 7th level creature. also some creatures are missing or using a lot different graphics this also means much work. also its needed to delete lvl7 dwellings in towns and maps, also there would be some balance problems, but these may be fixed in few hours.
however the idea is quite nice.
idea 7/10
originality 8/10
chances 2/10
sum 5,6/10

Very good idea.It could be with Stick Town(just kidding).
As for the mummies you can use H3 walking deads and use a H3 gog for H2 zombie.For boars and wolves I must have seen some units without the raiders in the possible creatures topic.As for swordsmen(and their upgrade)you can use the H3 swordsman-crusader and for H2 Paladin-Crusader you can use H3 Angel-Archangel without wings(if you can make it).

I'll post again if I think something else

Not that I mind, it's just that you'll receive more responses from a brick wall since this thread is so old.
