Questions/suggestions?

Wow. A real-life Tournaments event for HoMM3. I won't be able to come, but just out of curiosity, will it follow the rules? :D

By the way, no one in this section will see the topic; it would be good if moderators moved it here: /forum/section/62/

The main rules are here: http://goodoldgames.ru/publ/4-1-0-39

But this is for the Dungeon faction.

At the tournament: 2 hours until the final.

Let me offer some criticism, if I may?

Xyron, Zeron – Why ban them? One has a fireball, the other has a magic specialization. Nothing special.

Lord Haart is a joke, not a hero.

Mutara (and the dragon too), Kilgor, Gelo, the Dragon – they only appear in campaigns; they don't appear in random maps.

On the first day of any week in the first month, the red player is not allowed to attack the opponent's main Castle or block the path to it. If this rule is violated, the hero will be removed. – That's ridiculous.

***

- Nothing is said about scrolls of level 4-5. And the guards there are very weak. They are practically free for the taking.

- Nothing is said about hit and run tactics, specifically, taking a Phoenix, hitting with an explosion, chain lightning, meteor, etc., and then retreating. Then attacking again, hitting, and retreating, etc. (Especially if it's a spell from a free scroll!)

- Nothing is said about moved guards. This also applies to moving from one spawn point to another (territory). One player has to kill the inconvenient guard, and the second player can just walk past without touching it and without losing his army. Great!
And in general, moved guards are a bug in the generator, for example, if a monster is standing near the Helmet of Enlightenment, so that the artifact can simply be taken for free? Or the Book of Air and Earth? Anything can be taken for free and then used. But you have to break through... It's ridiculous.

I would play as the Conflux with Grindan. Or as the Dungeon with Shaka. Or as the Stronghold with Galthar. Ahh.... :)

Yes, the most important thing. Think about the HD MOD. Fast splitting/merging of units, transferring an army between heroes with one button, as well as artifacts. It saves a lot of time! And many useful things + it fixes some bugs, such as hero duplication, city corruption, and others. http://sites.google.com/site/heroes3hd/rus/description

By the way, no one will see this topic in that section; it would be good if the moderators moved it here.

Is it okay that besides Heroes III, there might also be Heroes V and IV?

Is it really a problem that besides Heroes III, there might also be "Heroes V or IV"?

Nothing.

What kind of "Old Games" are Heroes V or VI?

Heroes VI are "old games"? They were released a few days ago, LOL!!!

And what's the point of this section, which practically no one visits?

There might be:

Computer games:
HoMM V / VI

Can't you read?
And since when are "average" players considered "almost everyone"?

I agree with Vis. Not only is there a chance that Heroes 5 and 6 will participate (although, in my humble opinion, it's too early to hold tournaments for the latter, especially considering the balance), but there's also Tetris.
In general, the best option, in my humble opinion, is to have several threads on this tournament in different sections, so everyone will definitely see everything.

Hello everyone!

I'm very glad that I finally found a truly active and popular resource :)

1. Regarding the rules: they work, and Leagues were held in Izhevsk using them during the period when Heroes was actively played several years ago. Plus, we have held 3 ГоГs and one LAN League for Heroes over the past 3 years.

2. About HoMM 5/6: yes, these are new games, but since we have a "general standings" for new and old games - whichever has more participants, these games are included in the regulations (just like the 2 Mortal Kombat games - on Sega and PS3).

Man, I'd come to play Might & Magic if it were closer.

Mortal Kombat live is insane... :D

So, who won the Heroes 3 Shaman competition? Or who was it?

The final match is being played today – already at the club, not at the festival (because they didn't have time to finish it during the festival).

Yes, it's Shaman in the final.

[1.11 - 17:40] Right now, at the "Temple" computer club, two contenders for the throne are finishing their final match in the "Heroes of Might and Magic 3" discipline. The opponents agreed to play until two losses on a medium-sized map, and Ilya Rylov has already won the first game. In just a few minutes, Dmitry Fedorov will try to take revenge.

[1.11 - 21:21] The rematch has taken place! Dmitry Shaman Fedorov, as successfully as his opponent in the first game, "intercepted" the opponent's troops on the march, after which it was almost impossible to resist Ilya Merk Rylov's invasion. The final tactical battle reduced the efforts of both participants to the last, decisive game, which will obviously end at night.

[2.11 - 10:00] The festival is over! Dmitry Shaman Fedorov, in a fierce battle, snatched the victory that was already slipping away from Ilya Rylov and became the GoG -=V=- Champion in the longest-running discipline – Heroes of Might and Magic 3! The match ended late at night, so the photo gallery from the second day of the Festival is a little delayed – expect it today at lunchtime.

The winner :)
