[1x1] The Last Stand

A new version of the map has been released. The thread header has been updated.

Version 3.1 - Release dated 15.10.21

Change list:

• Added creature upgrade options in the "Fort on the Hill" object: 
  
    -Upgrade creatures to grades only.
    -Upgrade creatures to alt-grades only.
    -Upgrade creatures to a random line.
  
• The "Imps" creature is excluded from generation in the inter-faction army.
• Fixed a bug where it was possible to leave the starting zone before the duel preparation began.
• Fixed a transformation bug; previously, the player's starting artifact was not preserved when using this function.
• Fixed a bug with the "Challenge to a Random Battlefield" object; previously, it would not trigger if the "Stone Halls" arena was randomly generated.
• 5 random artifacts are now generated after the start of duel preparation, rather than at the map start.
• It is no longer possible to attack an opponent in the battlefield selection room. To attack an enemy hero, you must use the "Challenge to a Duel" or "Challenge to a Random Battlefield" object.
• To access the "Infernal Forge," it is now necessary to visit not only the "Experience Generator" but also the "Arbitrator."
• To access the "Elven Arena," it is now necessary to visit not only the "Army Generator" but also the "Experience Generator" and the "Arbitrator"; furthermore, using this object will cause the following changes:
  
    -The Mentor will become unavailable until the end of the game.
    -Artifact shops will become unavailable, and all unequipped artifacts will be removed.
    -All heroes except for the main one will be removed.
  
• Now, when using the "Portal from the Starting Zone," a resource limit for using runes will be set for players of the "Fortress" faction; the limit is determined by the stage of the game. This change does not apply to AI.
  
• Expanded functionality of the "Faction Bonus Generator" object:
  
  For the "Academy" faction, the "Mini-Artifact Forge" function is performed. The hero gains the ability to create mini-artifacts to strengthen creatures; the resource limit depends on the stage of the game. When using this object, the following changes will occur:
  
     -The Mentor will become unavailable until the end of the game.
     -Artifact shops will become unavailable, and all unequipped artifacts will be removed.
     -All heroes except for the main one will be removed.
     -Until exiting the mini-artifact creation mode, the hero cannot leave the city zone.
  
• The "Artifact Forge" building is now unavailable from the start; temporary access can only be obtained through the "Faction Bonus Generator." This change does not apply to AI.

A test version of the map has been released: 3.1 (А).

The main change is a recalculation of the number of generated creatures for all factions and at all stages of the game.
The goal of this change is to bring growth closer to more realistic levels in terms of the player's turn-based development.
A poll has also been opened regarding which calculation system should remain on the map.
