# Turnam pointed out that you can win [[The Road Home]] but defeating all enemies (which I also verified). The in-game description does not have the "or defeat all enemies" text and there is no option in the Map Editor to toggle the "or defeat all enemies" option for "Build a Grail Structure". Thoughts? Should we show what it says in-game, or how it actually plays? Should we record this as a bug? --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 03:43, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
# Find a word from [[Heroes_Chronicles/Hc1Prev]] that is also a word from {{extLink|link=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_and_British_English_spelling_differences|title=wikipedia.org/wiki/American_and_British_English_spelling_differences}} so we can determine whether or not this [[Heroes_Chronicles/Localizations|localization is EN-US or EN-GB]].
#* Im pretty sure Maped doesn't allow for it because by default Build a Grail structure can be won by defeating all enemies. - [[User:Csaros|Csaros]] ([[User talk:Csaros|talk]]) 11:57, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
#* I didn't see anything. The text isn't that long...it might be valid for both.  The corrupted text makes it hard to tell though... --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 01:06, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

# Can scenarios have multiple loss conditions? Many campaign scenario descriptions are worded this way (e.g. [[Fall of Sandro]]). Is there a way to look this up in-game or in the map editor?

#* Yes they do have multiple loss conditions, but using both the SoD and HotA map editor on [[Fall of Sandro]], I can't find anything that causes this. Guess we'll have to look into it as to how it's done, but yes, some of the maps definitely have a couple of loss conditions.

#** Map Editor does not work for multiple loss conditions, but recent research by [[User:Legate|Legate]] and [[User:Sanust|Sanust]] shows that the Map Editor does not work for some of the Campaign scenarios, which seem to actually have multiple loss and victory conditions unattainable in the HotA Maped. - [[User:Csaros|Csaros]] ([[User talk:Csaros|talk]]) 14:17, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

* You've seen the posts. The sexually weird buy-my-book posts on this wiki added by fresh accounts. And every day or so I see the New Users log with hundreds of new names, each of the same type. "CorneliusPence7" "LolaDelgadillo7" "DebraFortner2" "DonnaFreund74" "LonaHiatt0" "AlicaMacvitie4". NameSurnameNumber. Now I'm not saying all aforementioned are definitely bots or spammers, but they are far more likely to be. Can we do something about it? Make accounts before x days old's new posts don't appear unless approved, or add some question(s) about Heroes 3 (such as "What Town does the Dwarf belong to" in the account-creation of the site to stop spam-bot accounts? - [[User:Csaros|Csaros]] ([[User talk:Csaros|talk]]) 14:15, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

* I think it is a good idea, but maybe the bots are using some tools like Chatgpt to create new fake accounts. And also the problems can't be too difficult. --[[User:Sanust|Sanust]] ([[User talk:Sanust|talk]]) 14:21, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

* I talked with [[User:imahero|imahero]] about a portion of this a few months ago...there is at least no issue with the # of accounts created. We will not run out of space for new accounts. But, I agree that it would be nice to have something pro-active done about the weird spam pages, instead of just relying on us all to be vigilant and delete them when they appear. --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 16:32, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
