Include me too. I've completed the map, but I won't upload the save yet because on day 7, a message appears saying that I'm too slow and that I need to complete the map in less time. I'll keep trying to figure it out. Or is the message just there for show?

Please accept my application to participate.
This is my first offline tournament, and I wouldn't have participated in it, but I got hooked on this map because of the 14 Djinns and 7 Titans - I wanted to :smile35:. Plus, the map is small (which is also good), and it looks nice.

Thank you for the feedback. I think Dirty_Player will be happy to hear it. I completely agree, the map is small but interesting. It's great to see some old-school online players on the list.

Please accept my application for the tournament. (This is my first tournament ever)
Sincerely, Indigo.

Yeah, Dirty_Player is a joker :D. Well done! No matter how many days you take to complete the map, it's ALREADY a result. However, before sending the winning save, I suggest trying to replay the map one more time; you'll probably be able to improve your initial result. You are registered as number 17.

I played the map about 50 times, and this is the best I could do. I bought myself a country house on <вырезано>. The only thing I did wrong was not saving before battles. I hope the tournament organizer will forgive me and not list me as a cheater.
Briefly about the playthrough:
After several attempts, I decided to play as <вырезано>.

<вырезано>

Very interesting map, there is a lot to think about, thank you to the organizer.

According to the tournament rules, it is forbidden to openly post save files and discuss the playthrough until the tournament is over. Please send the save file to the specified e-mail. Please be more careful in the future.

Can I join and embarrass myself? :) ... If yes, then add me too, I'll participate...

P.S. Kostyan, good job organizing this tournament, although... everyone was asking for a break from the race, but it seems people aren't ready to rest, they're ready to compete :) Anyway, respect for organizing the tournament.
What's the character limit for the archive? :)

Best regards, K0Lb@zzeR.

Please register me for this tournament as well. It feels like I haven't played Heroes 3 in a while!

Added 57 minutes later
I decided to send the save file right away, as the map is small, so the playthrough doesn't take much time. Yesterday, I sat down and quickly completed this tournament. The map is interesting - if you think a little, you can do everything very quickly (I hope this won't be considered a discussion about the tournament, and there are no specific strategies mentioned). I don't understand why a whole month is allocated for such a small tournament. Is it possible to shorten it (the duration), or is it too long to wait for the results to be announced?

Since this is my first time participating, I would appreciate confirmation that the save file has been received and that everything is okay with it (that it loads and can be read).

The thing is, if you want to take a prize-winning place, a quick one-hour Walkthrough won't be enough.

We will not shorten anything...
Firstly, read above (regarding the speed of the Walkthrough).
Secondly, the Tournament dates have already been announced, and the participating players could use them as a reference, and it is not quite right to change something, especially without a need.
Thirdly, who knows, maybe someone else will want to participate during the month.

wolf64;183502

Since I am participating for the first time, I ask you to confirm the receipt of the save and that everything is fine with it (that it loads and is readable).

Thank you for participating! As soon as Dirty_Player appears, which will be on July 3-5, he will immediately check if your save is readable and make a note in the 1st post of the topic. And your letter, Dmitry, has been received, I confirm.

Really? And I'm replaying as a newbie for the sixth time and trying to figure out how to make the walkthrough as optimal as possible, at least until level 20 :smile35:.

Well, I spent more than an hour on the playthrough – it took almost the whole Sunday (the weather was bad – why not play?).
I'm 99.99% sure that the map can't be completed any faster; you can only get a different number of resources. That's why I'm saying – the map is too small; everything is done very quickly!!!

I want to! Finally, I have some free time. No more school-related problems.

Please tell me, is this a bug on my end, or is it supposed to be this way? At the very beginning, in the starting Castle, there is a first-level magic building. When I buy Gellu's books, no spells are displayed either in the book or in the magic tower itself.
Please don't consider this as a discussion; I just encountered this problem.

Check the map in the editor – you'll see that first-level magic is prohibited in this town; this is the map author's intention.

Have you tried building a magic guild, at least to level 2?
In other cities, it's available starting from level 1.
(I hope this isn't considered a discussion, as there's no specific walkthrough involved; otherwise, I apologize in advance and you can delete it).
