Starting tomorrow, a fan tournament will begin with only one difference from standard games: a random starting hero for any Castle, except for Inferno (as it is the most unstable and weakest at the start). Here are the rules: If Shakti or Galtran arrive at the tavern on day 111 with an army of more than 1 unit, this requires an immediate restart; in all other cases, they can be used without restrictions. I'm not sure how people will react, but I will also introduce a rule for mages identical to the rule from the "Sword vs. Magic" tournament: simply put, there are no restrictions on using mages against an opponent based on the corresponding magic level. I will use 5 templates for the starting conditions: 2cm4d(3), 8mm6, Balance, Panic, Jebus. Tournament format: Olympic-style, each round to 2 wins. All reports will be automatically counted towards the season. Registered players:
