* Add [[Lost Manuscripts]] somewhere. Either on the Lore tab on the main page or a link on the [[Timeline]] page? Probably the latter? --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 21:18, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

# [[Beyond the Horizon]] was changed in 1.7.1, the Witch's Hut in the bottom-right corner (guarded by harpy hags, near the purple tent) is now a Seer's Hut, who teaches Earth and Water magic to Henrietta. There are probably other changes. --[[User:Turnam|Turnam]] ([[User talk:Turnam|talk]]) 15:09, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

==== New Features (in progress) ====
# Maps (To Do list):
#* Questions:
#*# Anyone know the region names associated with this map: [[:File:Erathia - Fdon Fbury and ForestLow.png]]? --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 04:28, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
#*# Does [[Gaia's Crest]] belong to [[Erathia]] or [[AvLee]]?
#*# Does [[Land of the Giants]] belong to [[AvLee]], [[Eeofol]] or [[Nighon]]?
#*#* Nighon: The [[Antagarich]] physical map colors it like [[Nighon]]. This agrees with [[Antagarich#Geography]] that Turnam just added.
#*#* Eeofol: [[World on Fire]] intro makes it seem like part of the halfling homeland.
#*#* AvLee: What we currently have on the maps.
#*#* Aren't "Eeofol" and "Land of the Giants" synonyms anyway? In MM7, the "tunnels to Eeofol" lead you to the Land of the Giants region. --[[User:Turnam|Turnam]] ([[User talk:Turnam|talk]]) 08:43, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
#*# I found several maps that I would love to include, but am not sure general copyright rules etc. as they represent a lot of work from various people (whom I have not yet tried to get in touch with):
#*#* Markon Phoenix (https://www.deviantart.com/markonphoenix/gallery/59563259/maps) - There are maps of Enroth (planet), Enroth (continent), Jadame, Antagarich, Regna, the Ifarine Sea.
#*#** I also found this one very interesting where he correclated campaign scenarios to specific locations. Unfortunately it is for Homm2 and not Homm3! (https://www.deviantart.com/markonphoenix/art/Continent-of-Enroth-Campaigns-670412564)
#*#* Katarn (https://www.celestialheavens.com/forum/topic?t=12896&start=200) - This map of Enroth (planet) represents the collective research of many folks over at Celestial Heavens.
#*#***Unfortunately, those maps are very much fan-fiction. In other words, they are not entirely correct, even if they are quite beautiful-looking. The uncharted lands also do not match NWC's own mapmaking style. This is especially noticeable in Katarn's map.--[[User:FirePaladin2|FirePaladin2]] ([[User talk:FirePaladin2|talk]]) 19:51, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
#* Still need:
#*# World: [[Enroth (planet)]]
#*#* Probably needs to come from a non-homm3 source. --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 04:50, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
#*# Continents: [[Enroth (continent)]], [[Jadame]]
#*#* Probably needs to come from a non-homm3 source. --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 04:50, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
#*# Countries: [[Regna]], [[Terra Nova]]
#*#* Maybe make a modified version of each country map that shows only the country in question with the regions written in? --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 04:50, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
#*# Regions: [[Shantanna]], [[Deep Caverns]], [[Nighon Strait]], [[Shandar River]], All [[Jadame]] regions
#*#* In my opinion, Jadame's regions should be included with some basic info. They give a bit more background to Jadame as a whole, for the reader, without being overwhelmingly explained (because they can be, and for such in-depth explanations should be other wikis). After all, the world is a whole, things become intertwined, and having the minimum to show that is fine. In fact, to me it sounds more silly if those regions are not there - they could mislead the reader into thinking that Jadame's only region is Ravage Roaming or something, leave them disappointed about what a boring continent Terra Nova is on and so on. Otherwise, I could help out a bit more with that, but I can't promise anything.--[[User:FirePaladin2|FirePaladin2]] ([[User talk:FirePaladin2|talk]]) 12:29, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
# Lets make a page that is something like "Writings of NWC employees" (or something catchier? "Lost Lore"? "Apocrypha"?) and add a link to the Lore tab of the main page. This page should include links to the [[Lost Manuscripts]] and the Nether Gods stories that Turnam is adding. --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 13:28, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
#* See [[Lost Lore]] for start of this page. Feel free to rename or spruce it up as desired. --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 16:09, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
#* Consider making a symbol (like {{wh}}) to denote information that comes from these sources. --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 16:38, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

#* Include the no-campaign map watercolor paintings (e.g. [[:File:Cmap hota 4.png]]).
# Add Maps to location pages (see hierarchy starting at [[Enroth (planet)]])
#* These maps can be found in the campaign editor.
#* See [[Antagarich]] for an excellent example of an added map!
#* STATUS: Added all the maps with named regions. Some more specific locations can be harvested from various maps (e.g. [[Plane of Water]], [[Island of the Vengeful Serpent]], zoomed-in map of [[Krewlod]]).

#*** Regions: <s>[[Klondike]],</s> [[Shantanna]], [[Deep Caverns]], [[Nighon Strait]], [[Shandar River]]
#*** Make Bracada Zoomed map and upload and fix Bracada page.
#*** Add "All Countries" tab from [[Erathia]] to all other countries.
#*** Figure out where [[Gaia's Crest]] belongs.
#*** Figure out what to do with Jadame regions (most are not mentioned in homm3/hota and should probably be deleted).
#**** I think the [[Forged in Fire]] map shows [[Ravage Roaming]], but I'm not sure. --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 04:50, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
#***** Yes, it does show Ravage Roaming. In my opinion, Jadame's regions should be included with some basic info.
