the only rule i disagree with is there being no sieges, since some towns (namely fortress) have their strength in defense, sort of weakening such races in their strong field. also it makes abilities benefiting the catapult a lot less worth while.

I am probably going to be flamed for asking that, but I am relatively "new" to Heroes (after playing it for 10 years, paradoxically - but back then I was just playing hot seats and whatnot).
I am not asking WHEN will the English (or any other, really) version of HotA will be out. I am asking WHY is it taking so long?
I can wait, sure, it's not like H3 is my only game to play right now.
I simply want to know the reason of this "Russian Valve Time" BS.

It's taking so long because they are transalating all the stuff, including campaigns texts (which takes a lot).

Three versions of HotA have been released by now. All are in Russian, however.

I meant "language version", not version of the mod in general.
Thanks for the info, though.
(Because something makes me feel like a Polish version would come out at some point after the English one - but hey, it's not like I NEED a Polish version, although the Acid Cave section about HotA has some pretty goddamn professional translation, if you could call it that.)
(for those interested/didn't know - even if I am the one who shouldn't know, if anyone - it's here)

Check Hobbit signature 
However, have in mind that all of that it's just some pages - in order to have the whole game translated to Polish, it would require people working with the HotA team (and again, transalating all campaigns texts...)

This HotA game still have some things that have to be fixed! I tried out two XL maps (The Alliance - Coþç) and (When seas were deeper - Êoãäà ìopÿ áûëè ãëyáæe) and the game crashes and throw me back to the desktop.
In this picture the crash comes when the purple player's turn comes. It has no towns, only wandering heroes.
Anyone else experiencing this?

I have had many crashes too. Most of them aren't very important because the game works perfectly after restarting it, but I have had a couple of them without any solution.
I guess that this is one of the biggest reasons about why the project progress so slowly. It's very difficult to make a mod of HoMM3 because you can have a lot of bugs which crash the game, and some users can't understand that behind the project there is a lot of work that has to be done if you want a good player experience.

I saw this several times before I installed the newest HD Mod. Version 3.28f can be downloaded here. For me it works perfectly, especially in HD+ mode.

These crashes come only in the new Hota maps, especially in XL ones. I played M and L maps too, and those worked correctly. I also played standard SoD maps in Hota and it never crashed.
I think the problem is in the HotA maps. If I reload an autosave the crash remain. So after 5-6 months of play a game-crash put all this in the dustbin... 
Today it crashed during the Hota campaign too, but always when my turn was alive. After a reload it worked forth.

Savegame file and crashlog may help fix the bug.

I had problems in SoD, RoE or AB maps. Maybe it's not due to HoTA and it is my computer, but I don't think so.

Hello everybody!
I just want to say that even if it's in Russian I still play HOTA a lot. Well, I only play random maps games, which by the way are pretty different form Heroes 3 complete maps, and I'm amazed by the level of details in all the modifications they have brought to this game.It must have been an incredible amount of work.I thank everybody that was and still is part of this project and I wish them good luck.
One small thing though,
Is somehow the usage of Armageddon spell limited(to a certain number of times), during battle?
Because it happened to me... and since I can't read Russian and I couldn't copy the text...I wasn't able to fully understand.
Thank you

Usage of armageddon isn`t limited.
Maybe you`ve killed all the creatures without immune to fire by first armageddon and there remained no creatures that can recieve damage from armageddon.

For me and my friend the crashes are like Un_notas said: The game just crashes without any obvious reason. I think saving all the time should be fine ... and restarting the game again and again.
But such a strange error, always when something specific happens?
Well, I'm writing because of a question that doesn't have to do anything with this mod. So sorry for just popping in and babbling things that absolutely doesn't fit with the context. 
My question is about [url=http://s192.beta.photobucket.com/user/Cepheus_03/media/rescrn07.jpg.html?fromLegacy=true9]this[/url] image: Was there the need to change the main menu button positions? Because for me it's important to change the positioning of these buttons. I will explain why if necessary. (I'm also pleased if you send me somewhere else where I better should search  )

The reason of crashing may not be obvious to you, but surely for HoTA coders. I think that everyone, instead or yelling about crashes, should upload the save or at least the crash log. If you want it to be fixed, that's it.

Well, the problem is, there appears no crash log. And with the save is all fine, too. The game window just closes and that's it. And as I said, I just save very often so I can start the game and play again after the crash, and then everything works fine.

Well,you can upload a save before the problem occurs.
Then the codders will try to reproduce it and see where it is.

Seems like it is a bug with AI using art merchants in conflux (in SoD he can`t do this in conflux (but can in tower and dungeon), in HotA it was fixed but there were crashes with it in first HotA 1.2 build).
This crash and some others were fixed in HotA build from the 2 January. I have no bug when load save (in the 2 January build of course), but have already seen such crashlog.
The official links were updated when the 2 January build was released.
You may re-download HotA from here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/mgp6hr
