Hello, I am asking to Russian speakers in this topic because I would like to know what the website http://heroes2newage.ru/ is proposing? Is it an "online Homm2 game" ? is it a "travel in Enroth" story style website? I am very curious, I feel this website attractive, but I don't understand a word...

Well, I should disappoint you, but this is all fake.
This site was firstly discovered around 2011, and it claimed that a remake of Heroes 2 is being made. However, it uses the artworks from other games and is simply asking for donations (which is illegal as you know) parasitizing on H2 design features. This site was banned not long after; however it seems that by the time you rediscovered it, it was unbanned for some reason.
There were also some trojans attacking the people's computers right after they entered the website.
I have seen some messages from this person advertising the site link (basically, spamming), but there is no clue if this is a creator of this site or not. The bank account details for donations stand for a person with another name.
Also, most probably the creator of this site doesn't know it's back from ban.
Here is even the "teaser video", if we ever have a right to call it like that.
