HOMM3: Legacy of the Silence

There are many towns of great quality in VCMI, but it is difficult to use in practice due to limitations including AI and stability.
If they allow it, I'd like to release a project to port their towns into era.
Most of functions have already been completed thanks to majaczek, and it is compatible with advanced class mods as well as third upgrade mods.
Up to now, 13 towns (22 towns total) have been transplanted. First, I ask the original authors to use it, if anyone does not want their work to be used for another projects, I won't include it.

Well, that's great! Will these new towns replace the original towns from the game? Or they will be available as the eleventh, twelfth ...
I hope you start with Grove

Very nice. A way to use VCMI towns in a stable way with everything debugged and integrated would be a great leap forward in H3 modding.
As soon as this is released, HotA is dead as far as I am concerned 
Can we have a list of all included new towns?

You can watch the youtube video linked at the end of the OP. It goes through all the towns. From what I see, they change the graphics of original towns a bit + new towns:
- Cathedral
- Preserve
- Retreat
- Grove
- Death Valley
- Asylum
- Forge
- Highlands
- Tartarus
- Pavillion

Please include the Courtyard - because it'does not have any mod for Era at all. Town is very interesting.

Well, a main thing is also having an english version of the mod though I guess that can wait until it's finished.
Support the Courtyard idea though that would mean to finish the town since some buildings do nothing. (a building could be used to buy camara obscura, siege machine that ages once a random enemy and replaces ballista)
Another thing is that towns such as Bastion came with their own new artifacts, will these be included?

The version in this mod is actually Pavilion, not Bastion : p
Egyptian Bastion in its original form is close to being finished and will be released within its own mod for ERA.
And better forget about Courtyard. Its author doesn't want to see it released on ERA.

oh wow! nicely done! I noticed the Heroes Orchestra music in the snow castle 
Is there a plan to be able to use map editor to place specific castles? The first thing that came to mind was to have a battle royale, and place 22 different castles in a massive map, winner take all! hahaha But then again, the 8 player option has to be raised to 22, so probably not

i'm also bit unclear on the mechanics of it.
like, say i'm starting a random map, will there be regular+22 choices for towns? or like... how. i'd imagine doing the latter wouldn't be possible for it would require to re-work how selection screens look etc.
