About:
This is a Heroes of Might & Magic 1 total conversion scenario modpack Addon created by Blake for the great classic game Sid Meier's Civilization II Gold (MGE). I’m a huge Heroes of Might Magic 1 fan and so after completing work with MetroPolis on the Heroes of Might & Magic 2 Civ2 mod I couldn’t resist making a special classic HoMM1 themed addon for the HoMM2 Civ2 mod too. Almost every part of Civ2 has been changed making this possibly the largest Civ2 MGE total conversion mod ever made! It's 20 years too late but I did it anyway haha!

The Team:
- @Blake00 - an okayish Civ2 mod maker who decided to create this HoMM1 addon after finishing the original HoMM2 mod (after Metro retired from modding in 2020). Feel free to check out my other projects such as my & Metropolis's Civ2 - Heroes of Might & Magic 2 scenario (& my HoMM1 addon), my Civ2 - Red Alert 2 Siege of NYC scenario, my Civ2 - Command & Conquer scenario remaster, my Civ2 - Dune 2 Dynasty scenario, my Civ2 - Babylon 5 scenario remaster, my Civ2 - Terminator Future War scenario remaster, my Civ2 - Civ1 Graphics mod demaster, my Civ2ToT - Master of Magic Jr scenario remaster, my Civ2 - Deadworld Reborn scenario remaster, my Civ2 - Starcraft scenario addon, my Civ2 - Warcraft scenario addon, my Civ2 - Better Terrain Graphics mod, my Civ2 - Playstation Graphics mod remaster, my Civ2 - ToT Graphics mod remaster, my Civ2 - Alpha Centauri scenario remaster, my Attila's Conquest - Play as Barbarians in every Civ game scenario series, my old Civ2 - Star Wars scenario, and my Civ1 - Soundtrack Overhaul mod. I'm also the creator of the popular GZDoom - Star Trek TNG Doom and GZDoom - Quest For Glory IV 3D Hexen mods.
- @Metro Polis - an extremely talented retired Civ2 mod maker who’s responsible for a lot of the awesome things in the original HoMM2 scenario! Feel free to check out his Civ2ToT - Star Trek Final Frontier mod, his Civ2 - Star Control scenario, his Civ2 - Ultimate Star Trek Mod and his old Civ2 - Star Trek Test Scenario.
- @Knighttime - for his beautiful custom Diplomacy screen background template from his awesome Civ2ToT - Medieval Millennium mod.
- @MattDempsey - for his original custom Dragon breeding spaceship replacer template from his excellent Civ2 - Game of Thrones mod.
- GodRage at Lands of Enroth - for all his transparent HoMM2 Unit/Building/Icon Png files he painstakingly screenshotted from the game and painted out backgrounds to make his gorgeous HoMM2 website.
- Sir Albe and the entire HoMM3 - Succession Wars mod team - for HoMM2 town name extractions and some custom HoMM2 style art assets. Check it out if you want to play HoMM2 in the HoMM3 engine with new HoMM2 style units and factions!
- Eugene and the entire Palm Kingdoms 2 team - for their custom HoMM2 style hero graphics. If you want to play a HoMM2 style game on PC or phones then try Palm Kingdoms! They also made a great HoMM & King’s Bounty style game called Royal Bounty HD and have since moved on to create other interesting retro pixel art games like Dwarven Skykeep and Vengeance of Mr Peppermint!
- @Captain Nemo - for the pine tree forests in his Nemoland terrain set which I used underneath my HoMM1 pine trees.
- My own Blake’s Sanctum HoMM site as I took a ton of screenshots for my tributes that came in handy while making this scenario!
- The CivFanatics Civ2 Scenario League Community - for help & advice on many technical issues faced while creating this mod in our development thread.
- @tom2050 - for his utterly amazing Civ3 - Conquests of Might & Magic 3 mod that completely converts Civ3 into a sandbox HoMM3 reminding Blake of his old dreams and inspiring him to make the HoMM2 mod with MetroPolis!
- And of course thank you to New World Computing for creating Heroes of Might & Magic!.. and Ubisoft (current owners of the franchise) for not suing us.
