OP's pics are basically the same. They just have stuff that boosts different stats.
is a recreation of the world from the RPG Might and Magic 6: The Mandate of Haven, which shares the same universe and lore with the Heroes of Might and Magix series. The game in the pics is Heroes of Might and Magic 2.
I know the map and the stuff on it. The HoMM2 recreation doesn't look like it, from that screenshot. Haven't seen the map in its entirety so maybe there is some semblance elsewhere.

Sadly there's no good equivalent to make the OP pic in AoE2.
There are 6 heroes in homm2.
Turn based combat.
Heroes Attack Skill and Defense Skill are added to your units stats.
Each Attack Skill you have over the opponents defense skill, gives you another +10% damage, each defense skill over gives -5% damage.
Capped at +300% or -70%.
Each island buffs a stat by +4.
Spell power affects how much damage spells deal.
Like Lightning Bolt deals 25 damage per spell power.
So a Warlock would deal 75 damage with one.
A Warlock with +4 spell power from the starting island would
Lightning Bolt is not guaranteed tho, it'll take a lil' investment to get there, and if you're unlucky you might not get it.
Knowledge affects how many spell points you have.
1 knowledge = 10 spell points.
A level 1 Warlock would be able to cast Lightning Bolt twice.
A level 1 Sorceress would be able to cast Lightning Bolt four times.
There are late game units with magic immunity.
Money is sparse in homm2.
Ok, so imagine that you can't have troops on the map that aren't tied to a great general. Now imagine that great generals have separate attack and defense stats which increase the damage that your units dish out and decreases the damage that they take respectively. Now imagine that those stats can be increased by either gaining experience from fights and leveling up or by visiting certain objects on the map. Visiting the same object multiple times with the same great general does nothing. Top-left pic has 4 such objects that increase defense. Top-right has 4 that increase attack. Now imagine that great generals can also cast spells. Those spells can do anything from changing the stats of your/the enemy's units to killing/resurrecting units to teleporting around the map. Spells require mana to cast. There is a stat called knowledge. Each point in knowledge increases the great general's maximum mana by 10 points. Bottom-right has 4 objects that increase knowledge. There is another stat called spellpower that increases the power of the spells (e.g. if it's a spell that deals damage, it deals more damage, if it's a spell that heals, it heals more, and so on). Bottom-left increases spellpower.
Alright, good luck against my high-spell-power lightning-bolts and coldrays with that "impenetrable defence". I'll knock out half your stacks before you even make it across the field m8
>Warlock
Spell Power
go all in and rush lvl 2 mage guild and restart until I get lightning bolt >Sorceress
Attack Skill because solid cheap+fast ranged units >Other
Defense Skill
As Wizard/Sorceress I'd also restart until I can get a Barbarian hero, maybe a knight hero as my main.
Bottom left with the Stonehenges + Sorceress. The Spellpower boost is strong in general if I can get a dmg dealing spell from the Mage's Guild and pairs nicely with the Sorc's 3 Knowledge start. That one Sawmill is also handy to get early for the Dwarf Cottage + upgrade + the Tavern required for the Cottage (5 Wood for each of them IIRC) - the priority would be the Shipyard + Ship ofc.
Wrong board
Frick off with these pointless threads. There's no discussion to be had here, it's purely to give you (You)s. I have no idea what kind of mentality is required to be this fricking insufferable, but I suspect you might be female. Only females are this fricking pathetic and desperate for attention. Just have a nice day.
heroes hired at the attack and defense islands' castles can only reach one of the boats on day 1. i'm going knight, bottom left, hiring 2 extra heroes and harvesting flotsam to get champions nice and early.
The one in 3 was better. This one is too small and lacks a lot of the landmarks. The one in 3 also has this problem, but not the same extent
>3
Where'd you get that from?
The actual map in 3 looked like this

Doesn't look like it, at least from the screenshot.

Okay do a Civ3/4/SMAC version of it then

Top two are fine. Bottom right has mud huts and bottom left has druids so they're out.
The gobbo huts would probably enable a quick rush to take out one of the other players, so bottom right I guess.
>gobbo huts
bottom right = +1 knowledge huts
why the frick would you make a thread this bad here? Just go to Ganker with the rest of the morons
i pick homm3 instead
defense>attack>spell power>knowledge

Also massive Navigation boost (unless that map is tiny af) + Sorc's early tier fast shooters and flyers are great for the early game/rush.
Bottom left has extra gold, that guy in the sea likely giving a useful artifact, and +4 spellpower. Easy choice.
No, wait, they all have the same number of chests. It's been a rough day today.
