Ashan Games and Maps Chronology

[Akul]

For a while now, I wanted to make a chronology for all games and scenarios taking place in Ashan. I don't know if the list itself will be of use to anyone, but I think it might be a neat thing to have.
Thanks to cheats, I managed to include all the HoMM7 stories on the list as well (by just clicking the "Win Map" button XP). There are some scenarios whose years are unknown (I am especially looking at you, H7 Sylvan Campaign! You are only half-better, H7 Academy campaign! Well, I guess I should be happy that 90% of H7 ,maps included the years) so I had to guess when they took place (they have an = instead of the year number). I had to to the same with some of the maps which took place in the same year.
In any case, if someone notices something wrong, please do tell so I can fix the list

[Akul]

Forgot to add H7 Scenarios to the list ^_^; 5 new entires added and one edited.

[Avonu]

467 - Battle Cry Freedom (H5 TotE Scenario)

This story takes place some times after Malathua's (Kunyak's father) death. This means after H7's Academy first mission.

470 - The Cup of Thunder (H5 TotE Scenario)

It's final act of Orc Crusades - so it should be 504 YSD

564 - Rise of the Demon Sovereign (H6 main campaign)

H6 is called Uriel's Deception

(Guess of the chronological order by Slayer of Cliffracers)

... which is so wrong on so many levels.
Here's you have more likely chronological order:
http://heroescommunity.com/viewthread.p ... 0013#focus

- Tutorial 1/Griffin Bane
- Tutorial 2/The Emperor's Will

Heart of Darkness scenario - 505 YSD
Griffin Bane - 540 YSD
The Emperor's Will - 550YSD

570 - Might and Magic: Duel of Champions

Campaign story known as Herald of the Void takes palce in this year but Heart of Nightmares, Griffin Bane and Sins of Betrayal - known as Endless Wars take place during Heroes 6:
Heart of Nightmares - H6 Heart of Darkness scenario - 505 YSD
Griffin Bane - H6 Prolog/Griffin Bane - 540 YSD
Sins of Betrayal - H6 main story - 564 YSD

? - The Twilight Odyssey (H7 Sylvan Tales)

It takes palce between 570 YSD ("few yars" after Days of Tears of Fire) and 585 YSD (when it was revealed that Demons set fire)

650 - Shades of Darkness (H6 expansion campaigns)

Raelag's campaign - 650 YSD
Vein's campaign - 660 YSD

929 - Clash of Heroes

930 YSD

? - Agrael's Trial (H5 TotE Scenario)

951 YSD - right after end of Fifth Eclipse

969 - New Enemies (H5 HoF Scenario)
969 - The Union (H5 HoF Scenario)
969 - In Search for Power (H5 HoF Scenario)
969 - Temptation (H5 HoF Scenario)
970 - Hammers of Fate (H5 expansion Campaigns)

All these scenarioes take place in same time - after H5 - ca. 970 YSD

[Akul]

This story takes place some times after Malathua's (Kunyak's father) death. This means after H7's Academy first mission.
It's final act of Orc Crusades - so it should be 504 YSD

Yep, H7 made this story a bit clearer and I have already changed them to start and end of Orcish Crusades.

H6 is called Uriel's Deception

Finally a nicer name

... which is so wrong on so many levels.
Here's you have more likely chronological order:
http://heroescommunity.com/viewthread.p ... 0013#focus

I changed it to Sander400's chronology. Seems to be similar to that one.

930 YSD

Doesn't the official timeline put it in 929 though?

Thank you! I I modified the list and there are some other modifications as well.

[gomaki]

This is really cool! I asked about those Sylvan and Academy maps as well, and it's intended so afraid I can't help you there with dates.

[sdmitry]

Will there be an update for Heroes 7: Trial By Fire? Here are dates, that I wrote while I was playing it:
Gnomes campaign: 702-710-711-840-840-840
Ivan campaign: 858-858

[Akul]

After so many years, HoMM nostalgia hit me again so I finally got Trial by Fire. Fittingly, I updated my list (for anyone who cares about such stuff) with new scenarios and campaigns.

[Pol]

Where?

I mean, where is that list?

I recommend to your attention Hades Mod/Inferno Mod/Heroes 7.5 Ultimate, whatever the current name is. I'ts alive and pretty well. Though different.

Keep up Akul!

[Marzhin]

Tear of the Old One (H7 TbF Scenario) takes place shortly before Gumption and a Sharp Mind (H7 Trial By Fire - Fortress Tale 4).

[raekuul]

I didn't realize that Clash of Heroes was so late in the timeline relative to the other Stories of Ashan. I knew it was meant to be prequel to H5, but I assumed that 6 and 7 were naturally after 5.

[Spearritt1]

thank you so much, love h7's stories and writing, this helps a lot.

and i think 832 - Mirym's Journey (H7 TbF Scenario) is H7 base scenario, i've played it before buying TbF

[archcorenth]

Well, I just bought Heroes VII and Might and Magic X. Also, I've barely played Heroes VI at all. So, I'm going to use this chronology to play all the Ashan games in order. Thanks for making it. :-)
