Update Heroes Launcher today and enjoy April Fool's Day

If you update ERA Project to version 2.172 via Heroes Launcher, when generating a random map, you will be asked the question - "Do you wanna have a bad time?", if you answer yes, you will be in for a "nice surprise" when you go to recruit units in the town.

Random sounds fun but is this random stats too??? Why are the skeletons so slow??

Is there morale penalty? If not, random would look really fun :)

Just think about the genius of this game. You can put a unit of any faction in a castle of any faction and it will look natural. The style and design of this game is just on a cosmic level.

You can't say that those bones don't belong to the Golden Dragon, though!

Pretty good town unit rolls.

2 shooters + 2 fliers in the Rampart.

3 shooters in the Castle town!

Is there a randomizer mod that does something similar to this for each game? Randomly re-assigning everyone.

Oh wow - people remembered WoG toggle for random town creatures.

Charming.

I doubt most here ever played WoG. Total speculation, but seems to be vanilla or HotA with a rare mention of WoG.

WOG is great and ERA 3+ is even better.

Hey there. I really like random creatures appearing on April 1st. Can you tell me where is the random creature toggle enabled, so I can enable it and play with it on days other than just April 1st?

One of WoG options - don't remember which one exactly though. Never knew how is it called in English as well, so that's the only useful hint you can get.

It's made by local time checking with a variable set. You may need that script file edited
