I don't know how to help, when Solmyr comes, you just go on cursed ground nearby, he will always follow because he has stronger army.

If really stuck, use trainer mod,  type solmyr name, it will open solmyr inventory, click on forget all spells button, he will forget chain so you can attack him anywhere now.

As you can see in attached save, I'm already at cursed ground. Tried to stay there, tried to move to another cursed tile, tried everything - he still ignores me, despite 200% difficulty level. Sadly, trainer seems like only option left.

Trainer mod is made for such situations, when bugs screw the game. I guess Solmyr's attitude is same as when Pasis stops on first witch hut and remains there for the whole game. So don't worry and use trainer in those situations, then disable it so you don't get hooked and try to cheat.

Solmyr attacks northern castle because you let Pasis visit the red tent. They belong to same faction so he can pass red border guard.

It happened to me.

When starting the map choose artifact bonus, run from Pasis, get the red tent and, before leaving, let your artifact on the ground before the tent so he can't visit it.

Will be annoying starting over because of this detail but I am 99% sure this is the reason.

This is right, but I don't see how he survived Pasis if Pasis indeed visited red tent. Then he will attack week 2 and nobody can handle that.

I am playing right now MOW with Mentor mod (Rion gets level 15 as soon as I visit him hah) and noticed strange behaviour from Solmyr as I let him run around a bit, just to see. Will try to fix.

Suprisingly, I cannot beat Dace. Usually it was an easy fight - ignore medusa queens (they have next to none ammo), weaken evil eyes until they can't kill more than two AD per turn then destroy everything else. But this time after EE and MQ runs out of ammo, rest of his army storms out of the castle and my AD are too weak to kill them earlier...

OK, I did it (hypnotizing evil eyes was a key), but I could swear, that in previous games it wasn't necessary.

Did you change internal difficulty? At 6-7 AI is getting very strong.
As for Dace, I use living shield and hypnotize and medusas and eyes, then hide my devils behind, then attack & return. Requires proper spells damage calculations but you have the tool.


@Edit: uploaded at same links 4.2.

* fixed Solmyr and Tazar bug which made that they lost their army when attacking a creature bank then they were too scared to attack human. Legions are given back each day until they die. Works with old saves (if you press F12 of course)

* added compatibility with seerhuts uncovered, mentoring and trainer mods. If you install them, game will load automatically.

What was the strategy against Serena? She rushes out of castle on turn 3, no matter what, and decimates my AD's - even with efreete I can survive at most couple of turns

Serena is tough, Corribus himself composed a special text for her:

"What's this I see? What's all this noise?
Ah, nothing at all but some wee little boys.
Wee little boys and their wee little toys:
Always the mighty they like to annoys.
But don't run away, my coy little boys.
Killing boy toys Serena enjoys.
LITTLE BOY TOYS SERENA DESTROYS!!"


As for strategy, if you can't, delay her. She is optional.

Weird. It's M6W2D7, I'm playing MoW, but suddenly in M6W3 I'm MoS. I had to reload, but I wonder what caused that bug.

Did you use seer huts uncovered mod? Please re download it, in first version there was a glitch affecting other mods.

Looks like box.com is dead today. Try this (copy/paste, HC coding is dead too it seems):

http://wikisend.com/download/154916/[Interface] Seers uncovered.exe

Then first delete previous using mod manager, install, reload game, press F12, now game updated.

Thanks! But I have another problem (gee, I'm a real genius...). During fight with Sandro game freezes like this:



Can't even use trainer before fight, 'cause it crashes the game now. God damn it.

I see. Sandro specialty is animate dead and he can resurrect 1000 dragons in one cast, thus you must play the right strategy to finish him without bugs. Heroes 3 has some bugs when resurrect, this bug is in original game as well, not due to wog or scripts.

You must be able to kill one stack/hit, have at least two strong stacks doing that, and then place one effret on the dead dragon so he can't resurrect. Also you must use the demons, only with devils this map can't be finished I think.

Strange that trainer crashes, have you tried to deactivate/activate + F12? It should not.

Remind me, is there any particular strategy against Tower of Siloam? 28.000 archangels are quite the opponent.

Same as always: slow, clone front units to create clone barrier, strong stack behind optimized with attack all around (available only in hell difficulty) and of course, attack and return.

Mentoring helped much, didn't it?

It helped, as I had to test it on maps with >24 heroes. But is not like every hero you meet becomes instantly level 40, the 7 days delay is for both mentor and student.
