DISCUSSIONS on “Rules for online games in HoMM3 and formulas for calculating player rating.”

I recently played against one of the best players, and by the second week, I had a hat that gave +5 to magic, a book of fire (in <0>The Town, there are teleportation spells), great stats, and a large army... and you know what? It didn't help :) And please, don't say that this is an isolated case; it's getting ridiculous. It would be better to analyze the games in detail, like in the Loy tournament, come up with tactics, and develop strategies in general, instead of all this nonsense. I apologize.

I would even set a ban on increasing the week level of any level! So that it would be fair! Whatever troops you build or earn, you fight with them!

There is an unpleasant problem here, and the issue can be solved in 2 ways:
1. Load autosaves. I'm not a fan of autosaves (except for humanitarian reasons) - it's unlikely to make the game better, but it can add distrust + to this, every week, different knights come. For example, Valya came to me for the Castle on the second week with 20 archers and Gunnar - great, I think! But then, bam, a week of pikemen - we load the autosave - instead of Gunnar, there's a swamp creature with 10 gnolls, and instead of Valm with 20 archers, there's Loins with 10 pikemen - as a result, because of 5 weak units, I lose 2 excellent heroes - that's not good.
2. Ban the purchase of "illegally" obtained units. Everything is good in this option except for the tediousness. Especially on the 4th minute, when every second counts, you don't really think about how many pikemen to buy - you might not even notice that it's the monster week - as a result, bam, tech-poor! Because of 5 pikemen... it's absurd. It's easier with troops of level 5-7, although there is still unnecessary tediousness
