I was playing a game of Heroes And Empires 7.2 the other day and this user named something like lostacct managed to somehow gain infinite food he went to future with no farms. In the first 20-30 minutes he powerleveled 4 heroes to level 100. I do not know how i did it nor do i want to but i'm sorry i can't explain it better. I would of saved the replay but a critical error popped up and closed wc3. I didn't scrutinize the forums to see if this was posted at an earlier date, if so i apologize. i can't wait for a new H&E map ;D

thats good to hear, final. i hate cheaters/hackers... had enough run-ins with their ilk already. They've already taken over Warcraft 2: Battle-net edition, Starcraft, and Diablo 2 online

Time to dig old topic That exploit is pretty well know around here, it works in all H&E version except Advanced 4.0 and Rising versions. It isn't a cheat, it uses the fact that citizens stay even when they starve thus allowing to have a overwhelming income. Anyone can figure how to make it but well, anyone can also see when someone use it. Beside while using it you can't make any unit other than worker because they rebel. Towers is the only defense in that case. I don't completely explain the exploit but anyway it's pointless, you can have future in 20 min bu then that give you away that you used the exploit. Others know weakness of this are : Obelisk that you can't kill because you have no unit (there is still a workaround) and air units that pown your whole base because you didn't protect your base against Air passing cliff and you can't make unit. Well anyway that exploit have been fixed since a good years on both Advanced and Rising versions. (both under my instructions I must say ^^)

I realize that I'm four years late to this topic, but it's actually a bug I discovered a long time ago. I thought I had PM'd Lord_Squad about it shortly after discovering it, but I avoided spreading it, because I believe it's caused by WC3's engine, not by a bug in the map.
Basically, you overrun the arithmetic in food stocks. Gust raise rations crazy high (between 120 and 2200, depending on population), and your food stocks will go up instead of down due to a wrap-around error.
I'm fairly sure that this is a WC3 engine bug, but it could be fixed by putting a ceiling on rations.

I've seen people abuse this bug several years ago, but we weren't planning on making a new version at that time. Posting this might be helpful for those who are still working on newer versions, though Thanks!
