Question regarding M200. Solmyr, Dymir, and Aislin cannot use their signature spells without GM adjustments or other methods of obtaining the spell. However, the rules do not explicitly prohibit such a workaround of the hero-specific spell rule: a player can retrain the spell from these heroes and use it with other heroes. Is this a flaw in the rules and plugin, or is it permissible?

I can't find the list of updates in version 1.40, could you please point me to it?

It seems like this issue has already been reported – heroes that shouldn't appear in the tavern are showing up.
I've already encountered Gelu and Galtran appearing in the HotA tavern on Mirror maps. While Gelu's appearance was understandable, I couldn't recall whether Galtran was supposed to be available in HotA. I had some doubts, but the assumption that "anything is possible in HotA" prevailed. I didn't have time to verify it with an OH timer. :(

It seems I've already reported this – there's an issue with heroes appearing in the tavern who shouldn't be there.
I've already had Gelu and Galthran appear in the HotA tavern. While Gelu was obvious, I couldn't quite recall if Galthran was supposed to be there. I had some doubts, but the idea that "anything is possible in HotA" prevailed. I didn't have time to test it with an Overlord timer. :(
In HotA, many things are possible, but in a HotA tournament, slightly fewer things are. For example, there was this post:

Dear players – if you see an obvious bug, don't be happy about exploiting it.

Instead, contact your opponent or the judges and decide how to proceed.

The Dave_HUN-Benis match will be replayed with the same castle/heroes/rollback.

The bug is indeed similar to the Hvruul bug, so until it's fixed, we'll proceed as follows:

- If Gelu/Dragon arrives in the tavern on day 111 with troops, restart.
- If Gelu/Dragon arrives in the tavern on day 121/131/141, etc., with troops, load the blue player's autosave from the previous day.
- If Gelu/Dragon arrives in the tavern with a single sniper/sorcerer, disband them.
- If Gelu/Dragon is released from prison, disband their army; you can also ask your opponent to disband the hero's army from the symmetrical prison (there may be various issues here, we'll decide on a case-by-case basis).
- You cannot use Gelu/Dragon's specialization.

Since I don't know the full extent of the bug, similar restrictions apply to HotA campaign heroes (Bidli, Tark).

If it turns out that Galthran/Sir Mullich can also appear, the restrictions will be the same as for logistics heroes.

I'm not trying to deny my mistake in this case. I'll just note that with a fast timer, there isn't much time to dwell on (what turned out to be) non-obvious nuances of the rules. I'm seeing this text for the first time. I think that such things should be added to the first post of the tournament topic. At the very least, a phrase like this should be highlighted in red:
If it turns out that Galtran/Sir Mullich might be used, the restrictions on them will be the same as for logistics.
The very essence of the rules clarification should be in the first post. Fortunately, I lost the game, so the situation didn't lead to a serious problem. (It wouldn't have in any case, because my opponent and I agreed on the details during the game; there were actually three mistakes, not just one). It just happens that with fast timers, this is how it goes for me. First, I make my move (based on what I remember), and then I start rechecking the controversial details. Because the timer is designed in such a way that there probably won't be enough time even to play properly. Even if you accumulate something in the late game, it will all fall apart. Moreover, there's no time to discuss anything during your turn. Well, another reason to dislike fast timers has appeared.

Basically, I installed HD Launcher 5.0 beta 7 to play with another player, and after that, I couldn't load old save files, only new ones. Now, after I uninstalled this launcher to install an older version so I could play an old save with a Chinese player (because the old saves wouldn't open), I can't open any save files at all. It's especially unclear where I can find HD Launcher 5.0 beta 7 so I can at least finish the newer games, let alone the old ones. If it's been replaced on the official page with a newer version. And the previous versions are not available on Baratorch's website. Great. I haven't tested the newest one yet – I don't know how it works (it sees new saves). But what do you do if you want to finish a save from six months ago, but the new launcher doesn't allow you to see the saves in the game folder?

So, before this, everyone reverted to previous versions by installing an older mod? I highly doubt the correctness of this method. If needed, I can upload my backup of version 4.208 (files, everything done manually, and only using those).

Hello everyone. I downloaded and connected HW Rulez 1.40 in the launcher. At first, everything worked fine, but at some point, it stopped displaying HW Rulez. Could this be fixed in the tweaks? To reiterate, the mod is connected, but when I enter the game, it doesn't recognize it. I'm playing single-player.
UPD:
I downloaded and reinstalled it, and now it works. Strange. Guys, does anyone know if there's a way to select Sir Mullich and other banned heroes right away, or are they automatically removed in HotA? I need it for single-player.

Who is Defender? Check it on VirusTotal, and if there are more than a third of detections, write to Wizard. This has happened before; it was a false positive.

Is it possible to choose Sir Mullich and other banned heroes right away, or are they immediately removed in HotA?
They are not removed; they are simply unavailable in random maps and HotA scenarios. They are still available in SoD and AB scenarios; also, they can be unlocked through the map editor.
