...Get all your MM6-9 CD's and start playing for high-scores Find something like best records or look www.castlegobs.nl - there are 2 ways of "challenge" - time-break (completing the game as fast as possible) and my favourite - completing all quests and cleaning out all locations with lvl1 party. In MM6 it's possible to finish somewhere in the beginning of april, in mm7 - 4+ months (don't remember how many days does it take to start war and to finish everything after it ends), and I don't remember how long does it take in mm8 - actually you can get lvl50 dark elf very soon so the game becomes much easier. MM9 should be the funniest one

Actually it does not matter in mm9 - lvl 20, 60, or 150. Anyway it's easy with correct usage of spells, items and hirelings.
