PERPETUAL THEMATIC OFFLINE TOURNAMENTS "ROADS OF HEROES".

1. This type of tournament is essentially a competition for the best completion of a specific task.
2. Tasks may be as follows:
· For speed: destroy all enemies, capture all castles, defeat a certain hero, capture a certain town, complete a quest, etc.
· For hero development: based on experience or primary stats, as well as a combination of experience and stats.
· For army collection – without arenas, calculated in hit points.
· For hero development + army collection.
· For collecting specific monsters.
· If there are any other task options – those are also possible.
3. The game is played from a single starting save.
4. Saves are posted on the website at the beginning of the calendar year, then monthly, and at the end of the year, the final table is moved to the tournament archive.
5. Players' final saves are included in a single summary table.
6. Results are tallied monthly.
7. The rating is calculated as for a round-robin tournament among participants who played during that month.
8. The first three players in each of the thematic tournaments receive ownable awards.
9. Awards pass to players who manage to improve the result.
10. A save can be completed 3 times, but only the best result for each player is considered in the summary table.
11. At the end of the calendar year, players who managed to keep their prize positions receive ownable awards as permanent possessions!

To start, three tasks:

TASK №1. FOR SPEED WALKTHROUGH.

The goal of the game is to kill all enemies and take all castles.
Map "Forward, Vikings!", which was in the clan tournament. But now a bug has been fixed and the grail will no longer give gold to the player. Otherwise, everything remains the same.
Starting save generated on TE 1.03p, but fully adapted for SoD 3.2. TE innovations are disabled.
Can be played on TE 1.03p, SoD 3.2.

TASK №2. FOR HERO DEVELOPMENT.

The goal of the game is to maximize hero development by day 5 of the second week of the second month. Hero stats and hero experience are taken into account. The final score will be based on the formula: 5000 for each primary hero stat (including equipped artifacts) + the actual experience gained by the hero.
The map "The Diagonal" is already familiar to participants of the third round of the last "Heroes Arena" tournament, but there are now small changes. I will not provide descriptions; check them in the editor yourself!
Starting save generated on TE 1.03p. It is preferable to play on this version, but SoD 3.2 is also possible (In this case, if the hero has secondary skills that increase primary stats on TE, they will be taken into account when calculating the final result!).

TASK №3. FOR COLLECTING THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF MONSTERS.

The goal of the game is to collect the maximum number of skeletons for those playing on SoD 3.2, or the maximum number of demons for those playing on TE 1.03p. Army comparison will be based on the number of hit points (creatures' life points). Artifacts that increase health will not be taken into account. Additionally, you cannot use +5 weeks of any creatures, monster months, or build a skeleton transformer (all skeletons only through the Necromancer skill!)!!!
Map "King of Random", played in the second round of the arena tournament.
Starting save is the same! Game term - 58 days (day 2 of the first week of the third month).

In all saves, the victory condition is to collect resources. This condition is only for checking the honesty of the save! In the tournament, you must complete the tasks described above!!!

First tallying of results - December 10.

Send final saves to the email natasha@heroes.ru.

Next month, I’ll post new challenges. But for now, here are these.
“Forward, Vikings!” has a save file that reflects the original concept. It’s one of the best maps for speedrunning!
“The Diagonal” is also very good for leveling up a hero.
But not everyone has played these maps.

In addition, the strongest players on HeroesWorld will be offered

Out of all the maps, only one is difficult, and that’s because of its size! I’m going to play “The Diagonal” for experience! And “Forward, Vikings!” too; when I started playing it for the clan tournament, a fresh idea came to me, and I’ll try to implement it.
But the tournament is ongoing, so I can play it later.

Excellent, let's meet then! It's quite interesting, playing specifically for experience without the arena! There are more options when choosing a hero. Although, everything was great for the arena too!!!

Although right now, we know the best maps quite well, and while the memory is still fresh, we have a good chance of achieving a record walkthrough! :) :) :)

I understand everything, but you haven't played (or at least haven't finished) "The Diagonal" or "Forward, Vikings!".
And I actually dream about them at night - I can't stand seeing them!
But that's not the worst thing...
...but "King of Random" is truly gigantic, and it will probably be the most difficult and boring...:(
I know that we (those who have played it) are in the best position - I'M NOT ARGUING!
But more than anything in life, I hate ROUTINE!

:):):)

"Forward, Vikings!" will now be not so easy to complete...:)...believe me!

Sincerely,
Prorock.

I agree.
But the save file for King of Random is the same, so you don't have to start over; you can focus on completing the new quest, using the old save files for at least the first 2-3 weeks.
And by the way, Natasha played "Forward, Vikings!" without using any extra money!
Let's not forget that the "Knights of Honor" tournament will resume soon, and that's another 3 quests. And Natasha has entrusted the strongest players with the right to compete under the unified flag of HeroesWorld at the League Championship!!!
Personal invitations have already been sent to the best players, and the strategy for completing the quests will be sent out soon!

In principle, 5000 gold doesn't really matter when you get more than 15000 for the other castles. But there is day 121 - when there isn't even enough money from Graal!
But she is right - they are not needed!

And regarding the championship in the League under the unified flag of HeroesWorld, I'll tell you - GO FOR IT! I will be rooting for you!
And can you tell me when and in which tournament you will be participating? - I would like to watch these handsome guys and cheer for them!

Sincerely,
Prorock.

In the map "Forward, Vikings!", money is only needed at the beginning, when you need to buy as many heroes as possible after landing the troops in Europe. That is, from days 4 to 6. After that, there is already enough of everything. On day 121, money is no longer important, but ore is. But the problem is easily solved in TE!!!
The 2006 Heroes League Championship is the championship. As far as I know, Natasha sent the save. In my opinion, the save is very weak, she was in a hurry to play and did not manage the money correctly, there were only half a million left. And she didn't figure out how to quickly get the Grail.

"Forward, Vikings!" - it won't be so easy to complete now...:)...believe me!
That is for sure! I tried to do a bit of a Walkthrough of this map in its current version - and I want to say that I had to change my tactics quite significantly... Of course, to put it mildly, I had a poor result on this map in the Clans tournament - but there the completion tactic was clear to me right away, and I simply didn't consider any other start... But here, there are options!!! Anyway, I think I'll try several different Walkthroughs... The main problem, of course, is that the artifacts have changed and at some moments a lack of money is still felt. But for me personally, there is a plus - the glitch with the timer and turn transition has disappeared - so now I can play normally on TE without resorting to various tricks! ;)
Anyway, I wish all participants good luck!

I'm very glad that there are no more problems with TE. This means that you can order the heroes you need! And the most useful ones, so that there are no problems with money, are those that bring in 350 gold!!!

I have the following question:
Does a dismissed Hero return to the tavern with nothing, i.e., without experience and artifacts?

That's how it should work! This prevents players from dismissing a Hero with a desired artifact and then recruiting them again from the tavern. Such actions were already prohibited by the rules! If desired, you can use the tactic of escaping from neutral creatures or explore the new TE options described in the manual.

That's how it should be! It shouldn't be possible to dismiss a hero with a needed artifact and then dig him up in the tavern. Such things were prohibited by the rules even before! If you want, you can use the tactic of running away from neutrals, or the new possibilities of TE described in the manual.

What are the new possibilities?
The manual is in front of me, and it doesn't say anything except that the HERO is RESET.
What possibilities did you mean?
In the clan tournament, I did just that - I simply RAN AWAY!
Even just because it made the job easier for ME, primarily with hiring the same Hero!

Even just because it made the job easier, first and foremost, for ME when hiring that same hero!

With expert scouting, you can simply escape from the map without attacking anyone!!!
