Nevermind - i will create map versions and icons.
I have no problem with creating the icons, it would only take an hour at most, but if you have the time then go ahead

Not hard to guess 
I was thinking to give to queen Gorgo a hot appearance but finally I thought some users can think the length of her...heu...bikinis is somehow shocking...
Gary, I tested your creatures and sent you the ones requested
Do you think that some improvements can be done?
Like the power lich stooping its animation on profile, and not standing toward the south?
Would be possible to have the devil creature stop his turn animation with those hands open for much better effect (he is stooping turn turned to south also, can do profile)?
@Darkloke: the cyclop is awesome, thanks. Now we have to find why the peltast is crashing on shoot.
@Cepheus, I did as you suggested, replaced creatures one by one and adding the def name in H3 sprite txt. If I want to replace 16 creatures at once, I guess I have to add in H3 sprite txt. 16 def names, and thats all, right? And add 16 def into the rar. What I need to backup? H3sprite lod and H3bitmap lod only?
The hardest part when replacing creatures is to find the one with the appropriate sound effects. If the abomination replaces an angel, you will hear weird sounds. Behemot is the best.

Yes, we all have different opinions of what "hot looking" is. Fortunately it seems always related to the length of the bikinis and other optional clothes.

Problems so far.
Peltast: crash when haflings, works with orc cheftains, and I can keep them as orcs.
Longbowman: crash when any x3 of the sharpshooters/grand elves/Marksmans, but works with orcs cheftain and can't keep them as orcs.

I found a source of this crashes.
In the cranim.txt there is a parameter - attack climax frame (ACF), which used to determine after which actual frame the creature is actually shoot (launches a missile and so on). So if ACF is greater than overall number of frames for shooting animation, the game will crash.
For example - the number of shooting frames for Longbowman_Middle_East is 6, so if u will replace them instead wood elves which have ACF value of 11, the game definitely will crash.

I changed in Cranim the ACF of arctics to 6 but still crash.
OK, problem solved. Longbowman will replace war zealots (ACF=6), Peltasts will replace orc cheftains (ACF=4)
Thanks

Edited the previous post: solved. I had the option between sorceresses and war zealots but I need original sorceress sprite for a bunch of custom quests, so it had to be war zealots.
Edit: replaced zealots (castle) with longbowman because the war zealot had magic mirror hardcoded and it screws all the already scripted battles.

Yep, that should do it. As for backups, I would recommend we make a second .wog file with the original .defs inside, so when (if?  ) people are done with your map, they can use it to restore the default Heroes III creatures.

Very good idea. I already have it, as I had to play around with messed sprites.
Thanks

I think it will be accessible to anyone. There are 4 difficulty levels (which will generate a different score), and even a guy from the Tavern could win the first one, while I expect only one guy to win the last.
