I remained silent for a long time, gathering opinions from offline players I know. Most of those I wanted to ask haven't responded yet, but the general opinion is clear.
I won't speculate now whether vbn hacked the game or if he's a genius at "delays and luck": 3 out of 3 times, the unicorns were blinded (even though on three different versions of the game + three operating systems + several executables, I couldn't even come close to achieving this, even with all other moves being identical, including the companion's actions), plus morale and luck every other time + always the right spells for the mages. Or 5 out of 6 times, luck for the snipers in a battle with titans. Plus, achieving the situation again to record a video (and it was mentioned in the thread that a staged recording was made after the playthrough).
By the way, look at the date the saves were created. The save before the Conservatory battle is 07/03, after the battle is 07/03, the save before the battle with the titans is 07/04, after the battle is 07/04. The next saves are dated 07/10.
that without knowing the mechanism of luck (delays), you can look for the coveted numbers 4.5; 8.5; 12.5 (or something like that) in the code.
P.S. And don't prepare a tirade in your head about "you're just making things up!". I'm considering a hypothetical situation and seeing a way to hack. The situation perfectly correlates with the video.
And who was the first to decide to start a public discussion about morality?

... in that battle, the griffins went first, there are no delays. The unicorns' response - no delays. So, regardless of the animation speed, the version of Heroes, etc., the griffins always go first, and their response is also always the same (with or without blinding). Exactly the same with morale.
That's why I tested this situation in every possible way (combined operating systems, versions of Heroes, and executables). And I never had blinding. Those who, at my request, checked, didn't either.
Yes, I forgot to add. And all this is happening against the backdrop of the maxim cultivated here: "If something is theoretically possible, then I'll go into the code and do the same, only faster" (this has appeared many times in this thread).
