I ended up going over to my dad's and will probably go over there again this evening... so the last update of the year will have to be over the weekend. Next week we'll get back on schedule for the last updates... This thing turns one year pretty soon so it's about time for it's end.

PS: Someone should create a map for HOMM4 called Gravyluvr's Revenge where you can go get all the artifacts back!

Or a map "Revenge on Gravyluvr", where we get to cut a lowly hero named "Gravyluvr" into pieces using the artifacts we bought :-)

Sorry 'bout that! (It's just this auction is SO tempting :devil:).

Incidentally, that map idea might be worth looking into. There could be N neutral heroes (Pepak, Wimfrits, Kalah etc.), all equipped by the items they bought. A player would get to choose which Hero he wants to play, grab some level-ups and fight it with the other heroes (and perhaps some monsters) deathmatch style.

But then pepak, artifacts like Equestrian Gloves and Boots of the Explorer would be useless...
