TOURNAMENT RULES

1. To participate in the first offline tournament, you must register on our website www.heroesworld.ru and also submit an application in this thread
2. The tournament is held on the Russian version of Heroes 5
3. Game version 1.0
4. The submitted save must contain the tournament number (1) and the player's Nickname
example 1_VDV_forever.sav
5. Along with the submitted save, it is mandatory to provide a description of the final step (battle with a hero, battle for a castle, capturing an artifact, defeating the last monster) after which victory occurs, or the walkthrough of the scenario.
6. The submitted save must have only one conqueror hero who performs the final action (others should simply be dismissed).
7. Patches, cheats, codes, mods, as well as additional programs that can change the game structure are FORBIDDEN!
8. Results will be evaluated primarily based on minimum time.
If several players have an equal completion time, the best will be determined by the sum of primary skills (attack, defense, magic, knowledge); if a favorite is still not determined, then by the amount of mercury.
9. The conqueror hero in the submitted save must be without artifacts (they can be placed in the backpack or transferred to another hero who should then be dismissed).
10. Ashi's Tear can only be dug up when the puzzle map is fully opened (this will not happen in this tournament).
11. Send the save to the email address h5_tournament@heroesworld.ru
12. Applications are accepted until June 19, 2006. If you're late, you've missed out
13. In case of suspicion of cheating or other malicious intent during the map completion, a save must be made every game day.
P.S. In such a case (detection of cheating), the player will be required to send additional saves and provide a walkthrough description to determine whether the play was unfair or fair.
The result of a player who played unfairly will be voided and their reputation on our site will be "morale down"!
14. Discussion of the tournament during its progress is FORBIDDEN!!!
(Players violating this rule automatically lose the opportunity to play in the tournament; their results will not be counted and will be annulled).
15. The tournament starts on the 19th and will last for 19 days. Results will be announced 19 days after its conclusion. [You can still apply and participate in the competitions within 5 days after the start of the tournament, i.e., until 00:00 (GMT) 25.06.06]
16. After receiving your save, we will notify you of receipt via your mailbox on our website www.heroesworld.ru

17*. For this tournament:

If you killed the main opponent Gilraen and then completed the following task (killed the last weak hero, captured a castle, or something else) after which absolute victory occurs, the description of the battle with Gilraen MUST be sent together with the save!!! That is, in this case, you will have to provide 2 descriptions (instead of one):
a) battle with Gilraen
b) final winning step

The description should look approximately like this:
Attacking Gilraen with hero Agrail.
Agrail has:
Level N,
army size.
Gilraen has:
Level N,
army size.
And then describe the battle itself.

Tournament Sponsor Respected ADMIN!!!

The question marks in the player rank column will be changed to numbers once we come up with a functional rank calculation scheme. Then we will try to get it approved by our respected ADMIN!

The asterisks in the Map Description column will be replaced by numbers when the voting results are tallied!

P.S. See my rank scheme in the corresponding section.

ON BEHALF OF THE ENTIRE ADMINISTRATION AND MYSELF PERSONALLY, I CONGRATULATE Shoot-nick ON A WELL-DESERVED VICTORY!!!

Sincerely VDV_forever
