Well, what can I say? All that remains is to challenge Romanuel to a duel. A difference of 1300 experience points with 320,000 total, that's no coincidence. And he could have improved even more. I take my hat off to Roman. Bravo!!!

Yeah, as always, there wasn't enough time for a good result, although the start was very promising, leaving the spawn on day 3!
So, for those who like mini-challenges:
Goal: Have the hero Gem board the boat at the end of day 3.
Note: The hero Maximus should have 2 Djinns left.

Here I am, as promised :) I checked the leaderboard... Well, I'm a newbie in the first Heroes game, so 7th place is not bad – I thought I'd be last or second to last. Thanks again for the tournament!
P.S. By the way, there's a small mistake in the table – my Lord Vampire and my other Lord Vampire have the same stats, but the totals are different :)

1. Yes, a quick exit from the starting area. But why? (I think you need to get into the boat specifically with a Sorceress to swim for the compass, and for this, you need a Magic Guild of level 4). This results in a loss of momentum and unnecessary costs for the hero. But in principle, the idea is interesting.
2. I'll try to guess: we visit the "Ring of Fairies," a little luck (some morale) in the battle with 30 Pikemen won't hurt us. The archers are killed anyway (if there are 2 Djinns left). We take the chest (2000, now 3500), wood, build the boat (-1000), buy the Gem (-2500), and we're done!

Well, what a comedy! First place! And yet, I messed up for the first time (this was a joint tournament for 2, and I was to blame – there were many starting heroes, and you could level up anyone). I ended up leveling up a Sorceress. Then I started working on Maximus and, to my horror, realized that I would have to generate sulfur again at the beginning of the second week and just gave up. Starting from weeks 1-2-4, I began leveling up Maximus. I don't understand how I achieved the best result. Apparently, I wasn't jumping around the map as badly as I thought. Now I'll start collecting the saves – it's quite a mess.

I'm posting the entire walkthrough as is. I'll say it again – don't be surprised that Maximus misses out on experience until levels 1, 2, and 4; I didn't replay from scratch. I knew I wouldn't have the patience to generate sulfur again.

Yes, the zip is actually 7z. Rename it and extract... I sincerely hope I didn't break anything, since I was playing half-asleep... The main thing is, afterwards I asked myself — why on earth did I gather so many Genies? 50 of them would have been more than enough even for Dragons.

1. Vitaly, first try to keep 2 Djinns alive in the battle with swordsmen and put a Djinn on the ship, this is a mini-task after all;)
2. You guessed wrong:) On day 13, the hero has a maximum of 3 pluses + portal magic!!! There wasn’t enough time for more, the business trip made adjustments... I think you can easily reach level 28 with this strategy;)
P.S. Pikemen:rolleyes:, you need to use 3 Djinns to defeat the SWORDSMEN at the gold mine!;)

I don't even remember what the difficulty was; in 1-1-3, Gem got into the boat.
But what exactly are these "pluses" referring to?
By the way, it would be great if all the winners could share their playthroughs.
I'm incredibly curious about how the first 10 days were played.

Yeah, I didn't quite phrase the question correctly. It's better like this:
Defeat the swordsmen with losses of 1 djinn:

The thing is, on day 13, Maximus had 2 boots and had learned the portal spell.

it's just that the save file is not the right one)

Turns out, I should have taken the Djinns through the grove (and I didn't realize it).

I didn't figure that out before – I cleared them on day 5... and regarding level 28, I can say that if you analyze it in detail, it's actually possible, even with my gameplay. There's a very good village at the bottom in the center – I didn't even go there... I don't even understand what I was doing in the desert; I went into the snow and so on.

And also, did I understand correctly – the VDV speedrun was shown in one evening??? That's amazing... someone as slow-witted as me definitely couldn't do that... will we see the full archive?

1. I also cleared it on the fifth day. And I think this is the best tactic.
2. Roma, how long are you going to pretend? We all know who is the strongest on HotA in single-player. The point is to spend the least amount of real time. The main thing is that the in-game timer shows a minimum, or a maximum for Maximus ;) .

I messed up here, as it turned out. The Compass was taken on day 14, the yellow boots on day 20!!! And I got the Portal magic on days 1, 2, and 4.
