Offline tournament for HoMM V – "In Pursuit of Power".

Not a hero - 20

Rogov - 21

Okay, I'm tired of listening to your "I would kick him out," anyway, the program isn't working! I'm deleting my message with the question!

Why? Maybe someone would have answered... I, for example, don't know - everything opens for me!

please don't consider this a discussion about the tournament
but is it normal that when I load the game, I get a Necromancer castle?
what elves, it doesn't fit the story, or can you choose your castle and secondary hero with a starting bonus yourself?

What castle??? You need to launch the game from a save, not start playing from the map. In the multiplayer game, there is a LOAD option, click on it and you will see a save there, with the name of the tournament. Launch it. You can't choose anything, neither the castle nor the hero.
