Play a couple of practice games with someone, and you'll understand everything: on many maps, engagements with ranged units start right from the beginning, and if you also create roads to the opponent, the games will end very quickly.
This is definitely true; most games, if there isn't a serious early game strategy, can be finished on the first turn, even if the map is M or L in size. I remember games on Seven ending on turn 112, not to mention 113 on Guardians (this refers to skirmishes, not defeats), and aggressive rushes on MvM.

This is definitely the majority of fixes; if there isn't a serious game-over scenario, you can easily finish on the first difficulty level, even if the map size is M or L. I remember finishing games at 112 turns, not to mention 113 on Guardians (this refers to battles, not losses), and there were intense rushes on MvM.
I remember that in the same MvM, Vic was planning to remove the road from the tavern village to the swamp castle.

I remember in that same Might and Magic game, Vic was planning to remove the road from the tavern village to the swamp castle.
In the new version, I simply placed stronger guards on it. Let the road live; come visit on the 2nd week, but it's too difficult on the 1st week, so it's better to travel by sea.

Can anyone provide maps?! With the game rules on them.

Maps are in the end of the second post on the first page! The new version of the maps is expected by tomorrow morning.

Battle For Glory should be removed or replaced with something else. It's a complete mess of a map, with zero playability. The rest is okay, although some parts are amusing, and some make you want to fix obvious flaws (like random villages).

It would be better to remove "Battle For Glory" or replace it with something else. It's just awful, not a map at all. It's completely unplayable.

You also forgot about the free "Book of Air" and the "Orator's Hat" :D

Yesterday, I reviewed the rules and was very surprised by myself. I added an amendment to the first post:

12. Fair Play. The most important thing: players must play fairly and respect each other. Until the end of the game:
- using cheat codes is prohibited;
- using all kinds of "bugs" is prohibited, for example: selling artifacts for more than their actual value, increasing movement points using the Admiral's Hat, viewing another player's hero, etc.;
- using any programs, tools, or information that can provide information directly related to the current game, which cannot be obtained without using these and similar programs and tools (such information includes, for example, information about the contents of objects - chests, utopias, etc.; about the hero's skill tree, etc.);
- opening save files is prohibited.
It is possible and even necessary to open the map in the map editor, both before and during the game.


In the application to participate in the tournament, you need to indicate:
- your ICQ number; /I don't want to look for it every time/
- a convenient time for games; /maybe we can take this into account when drawing lots/
- willingness or unwillingness to play on TE; /SoD is the default version/
- since we are continuing to work on the tournament rules and map selection, we would be interested to know your opinion and suggestions on this matter. /thank you/

Why shouldn't I touch it? Are you having a romance with it? :)

A map in the style of RoE, from when multiplayer was just starting to develop.

They say that offline players should play very strategically in ranked games. Well, let's see. Write to me :)

Game time starts at 16:00 Moscow time. Mostly on Fridays and Saturdays, although other days can happen too. But we need to agree beforehand.

P.S.: You're a scoundrel, Tyoma, you finally convinced me ;)
