It's meant to be super complex. There is Red Sands though, so it's obvious possible to do, just hard.

They need to make it less complex then, i.e., more user friendly.

and I see no reason why they can't.

the only thing that's fundamentally different between heroes of might and magic 3 and KB:CW map editors is basically the height and depth of the terrain because HoMM3 is 2d.

Oh I agree with you.

like someone said in the comments, imagine if this was a standalone engine, how many awesome medieval themed fantasy games the fans can make themselves? Lord of the rings， Game of Thrones(song of ice and fire), the world of elder scrolls, the world of warcraft... man!

Do you know yet the release date, please? Can we hope it will really be in August or is there delay again? Thanks for answer.

The home page currently says "Autumn". Just guessing, that's probably October at the earliest. And I wouldn't hold my breath on that date - the game's been pushed back a couple times already.

Which is okay with me. I'd rather they release a good, relatively bug-free game a bit later, as opposed to rushing it out the door to meet an arbitrary date.

I wonder why exactly it's being delayed though? As long as it doesn't get cancelled at least.
