Posts from The seventh stage of the "Van Kanigem" tournament.

1. To participate in the fifth offline Heroes 2 tournament "World of Winds," you must register on our website and submit an application in this thread.

P.S. This tournament is part of the general Cunningham Memorial Tournament, so all information, as well as the conduct and results, will be displayed in this section.





2. The tournament will be played on the Russian version of Heroes 2 from Buky. The save will be generated on the Russian version.

3. The goal of the game is to defeat the enemy.
The result will be evaluated primarily based on the shortest time.
If several players have the same completion time, the best will be determined by the sum of primary skills (attack, defense, magic, knowledge) INCLUDING WORN ARTIFACTS (counted for the hero with the highest skill sum from those presented in the save); if a favorite still cannot be determined, it will be based on the amount of mercury.

Note: If victory occurs during a turn transition, the final number of days will be taken from the final results table, i.e., the day of the final save plus one.


4. The following are prohibited in the tournaments:

1) redeeming your dismissed heroes on the same day (i.e., using the "dismissal-redemption" tactic);
it is also not allowed to buy heroes who died in battle (do not confuse with those who fled)!

2) having a redeemed hero who fled or was redeemed in battle move on the day he fled or was redeemed. It is allowed to buy such a hero, but he can only move on the next day;

3) buying the dismissed/fled heroes of a computer opponent;

4) digging up UA without fully opening the puzzle map;

5) Open discussion of the tournament on the forum during its conduct is PROHIBITED!!!
(Players who violate this rule will automatically be disqualified from playing the tournament; their results will not be counted and will be annulled).

6) using any cheats or bugs in the "final" playthrough

7) using weeks and months with additional troop increases or plague. If a week "+5 monsters X" or a month "monster X" or plague appears, the player must replay the week/month transition and achieve a neutral result. If there are difficulties in achieving a neutral result, the judge must be notified immediately.

5. The player must save intermediate saves for each game day during the tournament.
Intermediate saves may be requested by the tournament organizer to verify the integrity of the playthrough. If the use of cheat codes is detected, as well as clearly indicated errors and features of the game prohibited for use, the player will be immediately disqualified from the tournament.

6. Together with the final save, players must send a description of the tactics of the final battle (the more complex the battle, the more complete).
If the victory depends on the outcome of morale/luck/certain actions of computer players, a complete description of the battle is required - one that can be repeated.

7. Send the final save to the email address g-andrew@mail.ru. The sent save must contain the tournament number (5), the participant number in the application table, the abbreviation (MW - World of Winds), and the player's nickname. Example: 5_1_MW_Alan.gm1.

8. The tournament starts on August 1 and will last until August 31 (inclusive). The results will be announced on September 3, 2007.

9. After receiving your save, you will see in the application table that:

1. Download the save and the map.
Note: The save and map are archived using WinRar 3.62.

2. The downloaded save must be placed in the Games folder in the folder where Heroes 2 is installed.

3. Load it and start the game at any time that is convenient for you, while remembering to make daily saves.

4. After reaching the last action (after which victory occurs), you must save again.

5. With the final save, describe this last step in detail (most likely the battle); then, the results will be determined more quickly, and there will be fewer suspicions of cheating!!!

6. A complete description of the tournament map is encouraged (not required). If there are any, a competition will be held for the best description, 10 of which (the best) will take their place of honor in the "Feats of Our Best Heroes" section!

7. Send this save to the specified address (in the rules of this tournament).

8. Wait for the results to be announced.

P.S. I wish all participants of the tournament a good time playing the game!!!

The starting save file unpacks correctly, but the map is in the form of a Winamp file:confused:
