I. Rules and Templates.

1. Game Version. The tournament will be held on version SoD 3.2(4.0) + HD mod of the latest current version + HW_rulez 1.38 (when a new actual patch is released, this rule must be changed).
2. The main innovation! All XL templates used in the tournament (five): 8mm6a,8хм12а, 6LM10a, 8xm8a(8xm8b), Spider.
will be placed in one file-template rmg.txt. Players use this file when generating the map, which includes all XL templates without template labeling (it won't be visible when viewing game information).
In the game it will look like this:

Download and unzip the zip archive (at the bottom of the topic) to the root folder with the game (8xm8b was used instead of 8xm8a).

3. Castle selection: random pair + trade.
The host generates a pair of random castles using a special button. Immediately after generation, each player can request a regeneration once for 500 coins as compensation to the opponent. If at least one castle is repeated during regeneration, that same player may (but is not obligated) request a free regeneration until a new pair of castles appears.
4. After trading for a castle, there is a trade for color. To speed up the negotiation process, the red color starts the bidding in the table.
5. The total number of restarts is 3 days, i.e., 111+111+111, 111+112, 113.
6. Time limit per turn with chess timer - 21:00+08:00+01:15
7. Roads are medium and fast.
8. Guild Hall rebuilding option enabled.
9. Library in "Tower" allowed.
10. Timeframe for one game – 2 weeks (explanation for those who need it: you must adhere to the gameplay schedule – 1 game every 2 weeks; if you started a game with an opponent, then the time frame for this game is 2 weeks; if the opponent ignores or refuses to finish the game within the specified period without valid reasons, you have the right to demand that an ODD be assigned; in case of non-appearance, the opponent receives a technical defeat).

II. Regulations

Stage 1 – Groups

Two players with the highest number of points advance from the group.
In case of equal points, places are distributed according to additional indicators (in order of priority):
1. Berger coefficient.
2. Head-to-head result.
3. If it is impossible to determine which players will advance to the playoffs based on previous indicators, the players will be offered a scheme for transition games. At the moment, it is impossible to foresee all possible combinations of results. Therefore, the final scheme will be developed based on the situation that develops in the groups at the end of the stage.

Victory – 3 points; defeat – 0; draw – 1 point (counted at stage 211+ at the discretion of the organizers).

The group stage ends on June 6, 2018
(no saves or replays will be accepted, results will be posted based on submitted tournament reports)

Stage 2 – Olympic System

On June 21, 2018, the playoff draw will take place.

Two players who took 1st and 2nd places from the groups advance and are randomly distributed into the bracket.
Games in the playOff stage are played according to the bо3 system (3-4 weeks).

III. Organizational Issues

1. The tournament starts on March 29, 2018, registration for the tournament is open until March 26 inclusive, up to 24:00 Moscow time (March 27-28 - determination of the final regulations of the tournament, group draw) 16 groups of 7 people = 112 people
2. The tournament is official.
3. The tournament is held according to Rules for organizing, conducting and participating in online HOMM3 tournaments.
4. Tournament host – rebellious (ICQ 345870761), organizational issues and media support – YaR (ICQ 287407342).
5. Tournament judge – Dima Surmay (ICQ 263293484).
6. Organizers reserve the right to refuse participation in the tournament to a user without publicly explaining the reasons.
7. Media coverage of the tournament will be provided by player YaR – organization of mutual streaming of games and video reviews. Registration for the tournament means consent to use your streams to popularize the tournament.
8. The winner of the tournament will receive a medal under his avatar and a ticket to the FB tournament :smile20:

I gave everything away in the auction; we didn't even have any restarts.
At the end of the week, I built Hydras and got a +6 shield; I saw 2 treasure zones and a couple of hives. Gunnar joined my heroes; at first, I did everything with him. Tazik wasn’t very good this time, but it wasn't critical. Opp had Crag and Dessa. By day 123, well-leveled hero combinations started to make inroads into the Dragon Utopia. Chains, hives, a couple of Pandoras, and on day 131 – the first Dragon Utopia was taken, but there was an unpleasant mistake: he went to the reptiles with Earth magic and 80 mana with Gunnar, having a resurrection scroll, but the Mage Guild was only level 3 at that moment. As a result, out of 5 Hydras, only one remained, along with Monarchs. But they were given good stats.
At one point, when I was planning to clear a zone in one direction and move to the other side to take the hives, Opp suddenly appeared and treacherously took two hives near my only town with a tower under construction at 4 am. I had to change all my plans and take the Dragon Utopia in the corner village with what I had. The result was excellent - by the end of the day, I was already staying in a village with a Fortress and impressive stats.
Opp didn't attack, and I took his city with the Mage Guild. From that moment on, we started taking 3-5 cities a day at any cost.
But time worked for me because I could not only regain territory but also expand my area of influence. After getting bracers, I managed to cut off Alamar, one of the jumping/running red heroes. As a result, after a week of this **madness, on day 211, Opp used the color bonus and attacked with a bunch of Vivs, birds, and angels. The battle was more of a formality, despite the difference in purchases.
Thank you for the game!!

I gave up the bidding entirely; I don't think we even had any restarts.
By the end of the week, I built up the hydras and took a +6 shield, saw 2 cans and a couple of hives. Gunnar joined my hero roster; at first, I did everything with him. Tazik wasn't great this time, but still not critical. The opponent had Craig and Dessa. By day 123, already decently leveled heroes began to lay the groundwork for the dragon sanctuary. Chains, hives, a couple of pandoras, and on day 131 — the first Dragon Utopia, with an unpleasant mistake: I attacked the reptiles with shifted earth and 80 mana using Gunnar, having a resurrect scroll, but the Mage Guild was only level 3 at that moment. As a result, only one out of 5 hydras remained, along with the monarchs. On the plus side, they didn't skimp on the stats.
At one point, when I planned to clear the zone in one direction and move to another edge to take the hives, the opponent suddenly flew in and treacherously, at 4 AM, snatched two hives near my only village with a tower under construction. I had to change everything and take the Dragon Utopia in the corner village treasure zone with whatever I had. The result was excellent — by the end of the day, I was already staying in the village with FC and impressive stats.
The opponent didn't attack, but I took his city with the guild. From that moment on, there were brutal snatches of 3-5 cities a day at any cost.
But time worked for me, as there was an opportunity not only to reclaim but also to slightly expand the zone of influence. After getting the bracers, I managed to cut off Alamar, one of the red's jumping-running heroes. In the end, after a week of such **chaos — on day 211 the opponent used the color bonus and attacked with a bunch of weaves, birds, and angels. The battle was, of course, more of a formality by then, despite the difference in buying power.
Thanks for the game!!
Annulled.

I was lucky that Grindan came on the first day and I quickly leveled up Earth, otherwise I might have also accumulated 2 hours of timer like my opponent. It's still an unpleasant matchup.
Thanks for the game!

I was lucky that Grindan came on the very first day, and I quickly leveled up Earth; otherwise, I might have also accumulated 2 hours of timer, like my opponent. It's still an unpleasant template.
