You can take the scroll – which means it’s not guarded, but simply lies next to the dragons.

I never take resources from under monsters, but here we’re talking about a scroll, and what a scroll it is.
Well, they could have moved this scroll a little further away from the dragons, by a couple of squares; there was space there, so this situation wouldn’t have arisen, with the dilemma: take it – and act like a VANDAL, or don’t take it – and remain 100% honest.

Didn’t you think that this is the mapmaker’s idea? And in blitz, where it was impossible to take artifacts from under enemies, this was always announced additionally.

Well, if this is the idea, then just put the scroll a couple of squares away from the monsters, and everything will be clear.

In all cases where the map author cannot provide comments regarding the placement of artifacts and guards, it is reasonable to assume by default that the map was made by the author without errors, and if an artifact can be picked up bypassing the guards, then this is not a guard, but simply monsters on the map...

This is pure vandalism; how can it be that if an artifact can be picked up bypassing the guards, then it is not a guard, but simply monsters on the map... when these monsters stand near those artifacts/resources. I simply have a rule: if there are monsters guarding something, then kill them and then take what is lying there, even in the case when it is possible to cleverly snatch something for free from under the monster’s nose.

Which is applied on other gaming resources as a rule: errors of the mapmaker can be used at one’s discretion, unless otherwise specified by the tournament organizer.
I suggest interpreting this moment in this way and consider it quite reasonable, because only the map author can unequivocally indicate what is an error and what is a deliberate omission. Otherwise, disputes and disagreements after the end of tournaments will be inevitable.

Why couldn’t they just add this to the rules earlier? I think some people, like me, are hearing this for the first time. Although this immediately encourages vandalism, which can be done on maps. It is better to test the map and clarify everything.

P.s. On some maps, the ability to hire Gem (with her innate ability to summon a boat) is a gross error of the mapmaker and significantly violates the gameplay intended by the author – where, for example, the primary task at the beginning of the game is to clear the way to the nearest shipyard... But no one thinks that it is impossible to hire Gem in this case...

In this case, they are simply VANDALS; there is no other way to call them for such actions.
