The 3rd stage of the annual John Van Caneghem Tournament (2007).

Let's describe all the bugs, require all tournament participants to familiarize themselves with this information, and then excuses like "yes, but I didn't know it was a bug" or something similar won't work. Before each tournament, provide a link to the topic with a list and description of the bugs, and let the games begin. I think this is the best solution. Describing all the shortcomings in the rules every time is too cumbersome.

That's what I'm talking about. The rules should be clear and not contain lines like: "Using bugs is prohibited," when, as we can see, many people don't know not only about specific bugs but also what they are in general. :)
For example, I don't know what version of the game I have (pirated or not) - it's not written anywhere, but it doesn't get patched. And here's an example: the Ballista bug:
I'm having a battle against slow units (they're all in one group), I have one fast unit and a ballista - there are no ammunition carts. The fast unit moves this group of monsters around the battlefield so that the monsters can't catch it, but they also don't attack the ballista. The ballista shoots at the monsters. The ballista has 24 shots. But what do I see - when the bullets run out, the ballista still shoots, and the remaining shots continue to be counted, only going into negative numbers (-1, -2, -3, etc.), and it continues to deal damage to the enemy. Theoretically, the battle can be won, and with enough persistence and patience, it can be won in practice. Did many people know about this? Why shouldn't I use this in the game - it's clearly not prohibited. Let's say I'm so honest :) that I won't use it, but where is my guarantee that another player won't accidentally use it. Well, he doesn't look at the remaining shots - he just runs around and everything is fine. This is not in the list of prohibited bugs, and the player is not to blame for being so unobservant. But what am I to blame for, and why should I be in unequal conditions with this player? If the bug were clearly prohibited, then we would all be in equal conditions. So, the question is - should I continue to shoot the ballista without ammunition or not? :D The rules don't say anything about this. And I don't know if it's a bug or not - maybe it's just a clever magical ballista. :)
PS: And what exactly is the violation on the part of the player? He has the right to attack with a ballista and one unit against superior forces - he does. Then he simply doesn't want his unit to be killed and runs around. He can't stop the ballista - it shoots automatically. And what? What is the violation? I also want to appeal to those who have a normal, patched version - is this bug (or not a bug) fixed there? If it's not too much trouble, please take a look.
