Forge Town (Horn of the Abyss)

forge_horn_of_the_abyss

A great curiosity has appeared on the HeroesCommunity forum—one of the members, Morglin, has added the Forge town to Horn of the Abyss! This is not a modification from the HotA Team. Unfortunately, Forge replaces the Stronghold in the game. The mod is based on the Polish VCMI modification MDT Forge, so it differs from the original town that was planned by NWC.

The town works without any major issues, although the puzzle map is missing, and most units lack special abilities. We’ll have to wait and see, perhaps the author will manage to finish them eventually. Installation is simple:

  1. Download the [HotA] Forge.zip file from the download section.
  2. Copy the contents of the Forge folder to the folder where you have the Horn of the Abyss installed.
  3. Start the game with h3forge.exe

    I installed the mod, and launched it, but when I try to set up a game it crashes, either after entering player names in hotseat, or as soon as I select single player.
    What might the issue be?

      Máš pravud, ono, pôvodné Forge ani nikde neexistuje, všetko sú len fanúšikovské výtvory, ak hľadáš Naga Tank, tak ten nájdeš tu: https://heroes3wog.net/classic-forge-town-v0-6-vcmi/ (je to nejvernejšia podoba mesta Forge).

      Forge is a scrapped playable faction that was originally planned to appear in Heroes of Might and Magic III: Armageddon’s Blade as the ninth available town in Heroes III. Carrying on the tradition of implementing aspects of both science-fiction and high fantasy in the games (which had been a factor in the Might and Magic series since its 1986 origin), the town was to be predominantly technology-oriented. Its alignment was Evil.

    Skoda ze nie ten Kronverk, lebo toto kyberneticke mesto mi do Heroes vobec nesedi. V podstate by som bol rad za hociake mesto ktore je prepracovane a zapada do Heroes 3. Ale tak snaha sa ceni. 🙂

      Tak ešte uvidíme, možno nás niečím HotA team prekvapí, nakoľko sú to veľkí tajnostkári. Čo sa týka mesta Forge, tak do univerza Might and Magic pasuje dokonale, no sci-fi element nebol v Heroes série predtým nikdy predstavený, takže pri ohlásení ľudia hru bojkotovali a autori narýchlo veci zmenili a nahradili Forge hradom Conflux (ak by sa tak nestalo, mali by sme 10 frakcií na hranie).
