This is a battle desynchronization. It usually happens when towers shoot, as well as when splash damage (magi, liches) is dealt to combat vehicles. This is an old bug; people tried to fix it in TE, but it seems they didn't succeed.

As far as I remember from the reports and comments on the Chaos League reports, the starting heroes had the following assignments: Castle - Katya (less often Valya) Rampart - Kirill Tower - Anya Inferno - Pir Necropolis - Gosha Dungeon - Shakhter Stronghold - Gurney (less often Dessa) Swamp - Bron Fortress - Grinya But they didn't start with all resources; they had 2500 gold to buy a second hero. And the rating of the strength of the factions was as follows (for XL+U templates): Fortress (banned) Necropolis (everyone wanted to ban it because it had no restrictions) Dungeon-Rampart Swamp-Castle Tower Barbarian-Inferno Then there was a Necropolis patch, and after that, Necropolis was allowed to be played; it ended up somewhere in the middle of the ranking.
Wicc-Wicc, what are you doing, you scoundrel?? :) Ah, you're bringing back so many nostalgic memories, when we used to play Heroes for days on end at LochNess's house (Peter, the oldest (in the literal sense - in terms of age, and in the figurative sense - in terms of the length of time he played Heroes), where his place was like a free training ground for champions (computers were still rare at the time, and computer clubs were expensive). And there, Antal, Cobra, LordDim, Matrosov, Tencha, Alex the Great, and many other Heroes players, no less skilled, played, but for some reason, they don't play anymore. And you could sit there for days, even if someone was already playing, and just watch, drink... In general, the days were great! By the way, LochNess deliberately didn't play and doesn't play online, simply because he preferred that live atmosphere. And in the Chaos rules, they also gave 5 gold and 5 wood, in addition to the 2500. The leaders (in terms of strength) were Dungeon (first place), then Rampart, and so on. LochNess only played Castle. Wicc, listen, do you remember when you wanted to play and comment on every move and the logic behind it on Volde? Maybe we can do that? You write, and I write, and then we'll post it.
