Post your high scores here!

*Mods, I'm not sure which folder this should go in.*

I've completed two games on Hard now, as a Paladin and as a Mage. Yes, that's well over 120 hours of playing in about three weeks. Anyway, I'm wondering whether my scores are good, and who can beat them.

Game 1:

Paladin
Level 29
49 days
97 quests completed, 2 failed, 1 unfinished
23,000 leadership
20 Attack, 22 Defense, 16 intellect
Score 890

Game 2:

Mage
Level 29
33 days
101 quests completed, no failures
19,000 leadership
14 Attack, 21 Defense, 31 Intellect
Score 1083

Basically, the main difference between game 1 and game 2 was the time, 49 days compared to 33. I discovered that the time is used in calculating the score, and that most of the time is taken up with going from one continent to another. So I stopped going back to Freedom Islands etc once I had finished. I just used whatever troops were locally available.

So, what's your best score? I'm sure those Russian guys like Shd can do better than this.

Is there a reward for the highest score? Is this a contest? No, this is merely for "epeen." If people are cheating just to get a high score so they can post it on some forum, then I feel sorry for them. So why would you be worried over something so ridiculous?

Back on topic :
Paladin, Diff: Hard, Score: 680
Days: 78. I traveled back and forth a lot to get my specific army, wasted a lot of days . Wished game ending money amount added to score because I had close to 3 million.

Extra condition in both games: "Stick to one wife"

My first try on Hard(724):





I wasted alot of time in the end (without noticing) by flying around and keeping my army restocked from the capitals.

My second try on Impossible(1454):





I didnt finish the demon world with closing the portal, since it would have taken another Game Day to fly over. And after 2 Play throughs after each other i got tired of the game so i just wanted to finish it

(No cheating involved, if anyone is interested in the savegames i can attach em here)

This was a heck of a lot of fun. My first game like this was HOMM1 back in 1995. Played the heck out of Homm2, but Homm3 was the one I played the most (plus the WOG expansion).

Of course spending over a decade on the HOMM series I was skeptical at first, but now after finishing the game I like it just as well if not more than HOMM. I know, sacrilege, right?
I didn't miss the micromanagement of the resources, and certainly didn't miss the "end turn" every day from Heroes.

This game was like a breath of fresh air to me; as addictive as any game I've ever played.

I slowly went through just about every nook and cranny on the map, so my final score isn't that great, but I never "restarted"; just poking around.

So I know of one quest I failed because I didn't stop the guy from turning into a werewolf in time, but otherwise it shows I completed 95 quests. Are there 100 total? I wonder which ones I missed.

Fabulous game, worth every penny - you developers did an outstanding job, and my credit card is ready for the expansion!

Your Score is pretty good for first play... mine was surely lower.
Mine was 560 or so...
there are 102 quests in total

Just finnished Warrior on impossible: 18 days, score:1498.
I should say, that I havn't had such interesting and "uneasy game for a long time. Right now I thing,that this game can be finnished in ~ 15 days, but I will not try to prove it.
Tnx to developers of this game .
