FOURTH OFFLINE HEROES OF MIGHT AND MAGIC I "CAMPAIGN" TOURNAMENT


TOURNAMENT RULES


1. To participate in the fourth offline Heroes of Might and Magic I "CAMPAIGN" tournament, you must register on our website www.heroesworld.ru and submit an application in this thread.

2. The tournament is conducted using the Russian version of Heroes of Might and Magic I from Buka. Saves will be generated on the Russian version 1.1.

3. The tournament will consist of 8 stages, as that is how many campaign maps were created by the developers. The goal of the game is to defeat the enemy or fulfill a specific condition within each individual scenario.
- Upon completion of each stage, a player rating will be awarded, which will accumulate with each subsequent successful completion of a stage.
- A reward will be given for each stage (in the profile and under the avatar), thereby providing an incentive for the player at every stage.
- The overall winner of this tournament (across all stages) receives a prize in the form of a trophy (in the profile and under the avatar).
- This is a rated tournament, so you should start earning your rating now, as the highest-rated player on our site at the end of the year will receive a separate prize in the form of an absolute winner's trophy, as well as an honorary certificate sent by mail.

4. Results will be evaluated primarily based on minimum time. If several players have identical completion times, the best will be determined by the sum of primary skills (attack, defense, magic, knowledge) INCLUDING EQUIPPED ARTIFACTS of the player's best hero; if a favorite is still not determined, then by the amount of mercury.

5. The list of prohibitions can be read in the thread:

Offline Tournament Rules + FAQ!, or on the website www.handbookhmm1.narod.ru

6. Send saves to the email address VDV_forever@BK.RU

The submitted save must contain the tournament number (4), the stage number, the participant's number in the application table, the stage abbreviation (for the first stage P - PROLOGUE), and the player's Nick.

Example:

4_1_1_П_VDV_forever.CGM


7. In case a player is suspected of cheating or other malicious intent while completing the map, it is necessary to save every game day, as well as before and immediately after a difficult battle.
In such an event (detection of cheating), the player will be required to send additional saves and provide a walkthrough description to the tournament organizer to determine whether the play was fair or unfair.
The result of a player who played unfairly will be nullified, and their further participation in tournaments will be impossible. This will also reflect poorly on their reputation.

8. Discussion of the tournament during its progress is FORBIDDEN!!!
(Players who violate this rule automatically disqualify themselves from playing the tournament; their results will not be counted and will be annulled).

9. The first stage of the tournament starts on October 6 and lasts until October 20 (inclusive!) 2007. Results will be announced on October 23, 2007.

The second stage of the tournament starts on October 23 and lasts until November 11 (inclusive!) 2007. Results will be announced on November 14, 2007.

The third stage of the tournament starts on November 26 and lasts until December 10 (inclusive!) 2007. Results will be announced on December 14, 2007.

The fourth stage of the tournament starts on January 12, 2008, and lasts until February 1 (inclusive!) 2008. Results will be announced on February 4, 2008.

The fifth stage of the tournament starts on March 13, 2008, and lasts until April 13 (inclusive!) 2008. Results will be announced on April 16, 2008.

The sixth stage of the tournament starts on May 26, 2008, and lasts until June 20 (inclusive!) 2008. Results will be announced on June 23, 2008.

The seventh stage of the tournament starts on July 7, 2008, and lasts until August 7 (inclusive!) 2008. Results will be announced on August 13, 2008.
Note - this stage of the tournament is also conducted as part of the annual Van Kanigem tournament (Stage 6 of the Van Kanigem tournament).


The eighth stage of the tournament starts on September 20, 2008, and lasts until October 20 (inclusive!) 2008. Results will be announced on October 23, 2008.

10. After your save is received, you will see in the application table that:

save accepted - indicated by a bold Nick.
save counted - indicated by a blue bold Nick.
save not counted - indicated by a red bold Nick.
This list can be expanded by new participants!
We invite everyone to participate in the tournament!

Saves will only be considered for players who are in this table, so submit your applications IN ADVANCE!!!

Message from VDV Forever
Krodo, with his army (7 archers, 7 gargoyles, 17 centaurs), attacks 21 archers guarding the boots. After the battle, Krodo's army is slightly reduced (6 archers, 5 gargoyles, 16 centaurs). After taking the artifact BOOTS and the campfire (+600 gold, 6 ore), Krodo takes his last step to the left for today, where he spends the night (see the map of the respawn point).

This is not a mandatory move. That is, your result can be repeated even without the boots. I realized this after I sent the save file.
If you play as a mage, like Alexander did. There are exactly 27 movement points from the city to the village through the gazebo for experience.

This intrigued me :confused: I don't quite remember how much experience I was short of for the next stat point, but it doesn't seem like adding boots to my tactic would make it a masterpiece:smile10:

No, Sanek, there are two chests with 500 experience each, and you have to leave one behind (the boots add 4 turns). And that means you can't get 4500!

Added after 1 hour 13 minutes
Yes, I remembered. When the tournament started, we were already discussing the first campaign in this thread :):):):):):)

Basically, we were short by exactly 2 squares to win big at this stage, so VDV and I squeezed out the maximum from the stats that determine the winner, but not the maximum in terms of experience and gold gained on this map. :smile30:

Good day, dear fans of "Heroes of Might and Magic I"!

I invite you to participate in the 2nd stage of the "Companionship" tournament.

I remind you that the 2nd stage will last 20 days, i.e., I will be waiting for your save files until November 11th.

P.S. Those who were already registered in the participant list do not need to register again (your numbers from the first stage of the tournament will be preserved)!

P.S.S. If you give me a couple of days, I will also gladly participate in it.

I wish you good luck.

Sincerely, VDV_forever

Stage One: The Prelude.


Day 1. FIRST.

At the start, we have 10,000 gold and Arturius (45K, 3L).
He keeps a peasant and runs south for gold (+700 = 10,700).
He goes east for peasants (+34K).

I buy Dimitri (38K, 4L). 8200
He buys 12 peasants in the castle (-240 = 7960), takes the army left by Arturius, and attacks the goblins.
He waits.

I buy Sandro (7K, 4G). 5460
He keeps a gargoyle and runs northwest, takes wood, and stops under the gargoyles.

I buy Hector (36K, 5L). 2960
He keeps two gargoyles and a peasant and attacks the peasants near the Mine.
After the movement is over, he dismisses the peasant.

I buy Maximus (35K, 5L). 460
He takes everything that is in the garrison.
He exchanges all of Dimitri's army for a gargoyle and runs west.

Dimitri continues his turn.
He visits the gazebo (+1000 EXP), takes the chest (+1000 EXP). Reaches level three.
He turns back.

Day 2. LAST.

Hector takes the chest (+1000 gold). Total 2460
I build an Archery Range. (-1000 = 1460)
I buy archers. (-1200 = 260)
Arturius runs into the city, takes the archers. He gives the entire army to Dimitri.
Maximus gives the army to Sandro. Dimitri takes the army from the warlock and gives it to Hector.
Hector (7 centaurs, 25 archers, 195 peasants, 4 gargoyles) attacks the gargoyle (losses: 1 centaur and 2 archers).
Dimitri takes 22 out of 23 archers from Hector.
Hector attacks the Dragon. Formation: 6 centaurs, 195 peasants, 1 archer, 4 gargoyles.
The gargoyle hits the dragon (so that it spends its retaliatory attack).
The dragon hits the centaurs – it destroys them all.
The peasants attack the dragon.
The archer attacks the dragon.
The gargoyle attacks the dragon and dies from the retaliatory attack.
The dragon attacks the archer.
The peasants attack the dragon.
The dragon attacks the peasants. It receives damage in return.
The peasants finish off the dragon.

Maximus takes the archers from Dimitri and gives them to Sandro.
Sandro heads to the mercury, and along the way, Hector takes the archers from him.
Sandro takes two vials of mercury (+4 + 5).
Hector attacks the elf village and wins with the help of archers.

Good day, esteemed tournament participants! Thank you for allowing me to play in the second stage! As always, I have placed my save file in the administrator section:smile24:. (It is password-protected:smile31:) Unfortunately, I couldn't achieve the maximum score, as I only had 2 hours available:(, but I am still quite satisfied with the result:smile16:.

Your VDV (airborne troops) probably won't be at maximum level – mine won't be either, if I even get any. I assume I'll be at the bottom of the table.

The save file I downloaded has a .CGM extension, but my game version only recognizes .gm1 save files. I changed the extension of your save file, and it worked. Is it okay to do that?

Is it allowed to do this?
No, it's not allowed... you might change the save file structure. :D :D :D
On any version of Heroes 1, the save file with the extension *.CGM can be read... just load it not as "load game"/"scenario", but as load/campaign...
P.S. In short, the name indicates that this is a campaign tournament... i.e., we play the campaign from a fixed save file. ;)

The name makes it clear that the tournament isn't a "campaign" tournament, but a "company" tournament. That is, we play in a good company :smile54::smile40:.
