Some home project...


A certain friend of mine came to me pondering, HoMM3 are a world classic, and WoG is a huge leap for all known fans desperately wanting some issues fixed. Modding a game such as Heroes really isn't all that hard as you and I, deer reader, are lead to believe, not that I imply things like that are easy.
Long work, and loads of resources, not to mention time, are needed just to put in motion a project such as this, but nevertheless it begins. Private assembly of general staff is currently taking place, but any help from all of you veteran heroes would be of grate help as well form any fresh blood wanting to improve an ever popular way to eat up those spare hours.
The picture is mainly to symbolise our taste, since it is quite old, considering the mater that all real art will be done a lot more seriously.
All upcoming information can be found at the HoMM forum WoG section subjected "Project".

Be advised, this is just the initial preparatory phase and any real work is yet to be done.

Greetings, I smelt food, so being a hungry old person ... here i am...

read the forum posts, indeed a herculean task you have set yourself but with such conviction I have no doubt you will achieve your aim...

If you wish I can post something on the elderly gamer.. a call to arms as it were, leave some text on this blog or in the comment section of a post on my place and i'll see (with your selection of art) it gets posted...

...There's plenty more.

Perhaps, a especially "healthy" massage, by my specially trained team of masseuses, afterwards?
I hear you like, no?

And Nicolas you are actually working on a HOMM3 mod? That's bloody amazing, as everyone knows Heroes 3 is the best fantasy turn-based strategy game ever. And I do mean ever!

BTW, artwork seems lovely and I see you started tagging posts. Great.

Now, to help you with your technorati Tags:

Thanks, thanks and thanks again.

And yes, my friend has started a Homm3 mod, and wants me to assist.

For no know reason, he thinks I am the man for the job, well apparently many jobs. Which is kind of a honour for little ol' me.

And as soon as my bloody scanner is functional again, I will continue my posting.

Bon appétit.

Hm...

Would you consider contributing to this project?
Your advice will be more than appreciated. Not to mention anything else some bad ass gamers like you tow are capable of.

If any ideas come to mind, or you are just plain curious, come to the forum.

bad ass?...hold on......

(puts in his false teeth..)

now that's better,

I'd love to have the skills to help, but as im still getting used to programming my video player, im afraid i'll be no use to what appears to be a quite technical project.

still I'd love to put something up on the blog, may send some experts your way.....

Nikolas said...

I'd be more than thankful, Mr. Elderly, for doing me such a favor. My friend, being the one to initiate this project would be especially glad to hear it..

gnome said...

Cntributing... hmmm... thanks for asking, but can't see how I could help... Still, I'd me more than happy to offer any ideas....

Nikolas said...

Ideas are more than enough.
Being a frequent patron of both of your blogs I have no trouble seeing that you are inventive, clever and cunning characters.
I'm pretty confident that your ideas are at least as good as ours.
+ We need some good idea moderators to expel bad ideas.

gnome said...

(blush)

Good, but since forums aren't my thing, guess I'll be throwing ideas around this place. Is that ok?

Cheers

Nikolas said...

More than OK.
Additional info will be posted soon.
...Bloodyscaner.....
(Muttering to self)
I'll just be waiting of a couple more days and then I'll be posting my but off.

Seems I'm quite a lucky fella to be havin' you tow as my first and most frequent viewers.

(pulls out wire.....)

Unknown said...

Unknown said...

Excellent piece of artwork I must say!!! I'm glad Elderly had a link to you on his site.

Look forward to more! Cheers!

Nikolas said...

Why thank you Detrix.
The art is of my friend, and this particular piece is years old.
He has far improved since... ;)

I have been in a bind for about a month now, but I plan to continue blogging soon. (Spring brake :D )

And now the matter of searching out your blog, Detrix...
