14. Roger-ua (OFB-11-6)
15. Diabler (OFB-11-7)
16. BISHOP (OFB-11-8)

2. Game Version SoD 3.2 (4.0) + HD mod version 5.0 beta 9 + HW_rules_mod patch version 1.38.
In addition to the standard checkboxes, there should be a checkbox for disabling obelisks.
The Guild of Mages restructuring is enabled. There are no restrictions on restructuring.

3. The right to choose the Town and Color is negotiated (unless the template specifies otherwise). The right to speak first in the negotiations is determined by a coin toss.

4. Templates will be as in the OFB tournament. Standard pattern selection from the list. The right to cross out the template first is determined by a coin toss. The player "who wins the coin toss" chooses who will cross out first.

h3dm1, mt-diamond, Anarchy, Skirmish, Jebus cross,
8mm6a, 6LM10a, 8xm12a, Spider.

5. Standard rules. If changes are made to the rules during the tournament, they will apply in this tournament.
Default timer is chess clock
Restarts 113 on all templates, except mirror ones.

Clarifications for some templates:

h3dm1 and mt-diamond
a) Timer 21+8-30+1-15. It is allowed to pass shifted guards to any lands. Only medium roads. Computer selection - random (for mt-diamond)
b) Castle selection. Each participant has the right to ban one castle before generation. First, the blue player says whether he wants/doesn't want to ban a castle, after which the HW-Rulz mod sets a ban on these castles and starts the generator of a single castle. The game will be played with that castle.
c) Negotiations. There is a negotiation for color and the right to choose a hero (therefore, red rush is allowed). Each player has the right to cross out 1 hero before the start of the negotiations for them (may not use this right), then there is a negotiation for the hero (including Conflux. For Necropolis, it is possible to start with Galtran), followed by a negotiation for the color. If a banned hero appears in tavern 111 of any player with troops, it results in an automatic restart. The rule breaker receives a technical defeat. You must declare the hero to your opponent immediately after generation (for those who are slow, within 10 seconds after the start)
d) There is 1 subjective restart and objective restarts (restart due to block (inability to leave the castle) or a serious bug during generation) - this is discussed between players, if no consensus is reached, the player has the right to save and once contact the judges, but please do not abuse this right, as it delays games. Objective restarts are taken no later than turn 112.
e) In the cities of Necropolis and Conflux (both in starting ones and in any other), standard restrictions on buildings, improvements, and creature purchases apply.

Anarchy
a) 160% trade. All roads!
b) All restrictions have been canceled, except for fair play rules.
c) The HW Rules checkbox must be disabled in the game.
ATTENTION! You need to disable the checkbox after each restart!
Only guild restructuring is enabled in the HW-rulez options.
d) It is forbidden to use the daily Grail excavation bug.

Skirmish
200% all random. The color of the first generation is determined by a coin toss. Color change after each subjective restart.

IV. Regulations.
We discussed the system with Cobra for a long time. The task was to ensure that there were no meaningless games, plus involve as many winners of tournaments as possible and more qualifying places from OFB. As a result, we decided to hold it in this format:

The tournament is held in 2 stages.
1) Group stage: 4 groups of 4 people according to the mini-double system (2 wins to advance). 2 people go out of the group.
2) Playoffs. Olympic system, 8 people, BO3. + match for 3rd place.
