No one has ever completed the "On One Breath" map in offline mode.

That's incorrect ;)
I'm telling you again, there was a tournament called "Knights of Honor," and it had something similar. That is, you could save and interrupt your playthrough (you can't sit at a map for 2 days straight), but you could only use load saves 1 or 2 times. =))

I glanced at this map, albeit quickly, and still didn't understand what made Medstrax think it was super difficult ((?)). The map "Tatalia in Flames" from the Armageddon's Blade campaign seemed more challenging to me :D But kudos to Dirty for the organization; let's see how many people complete it and, most importantly, in what time. (I'm personally looking forward to Medstrax's reaction and feedback on this "unbeatable map" :D :D :D)

And he called this map impossible to beat?
Damn, then I'll have to find a way to complete it, even if it takes a hundred days.

Well, then I'll have to find a way to complete it, even if it takes a hundred days.

It's not that simple. The thing is, I slightly edited the map (adapted it for the tournament). I added some resources to it. Before, it was really lacking. So, in its original version, it was definitely more difficult.

Yeah, you can feel that.
There definitely weren't any boots and gloves in the original version. :)

Well, then I guess I'll have to find a way to beat it, even if it takes a hundred days.

Sure, Vitya, :D I'm sure you'll finish it much faster.
I sent you the save file. I improved the rough draft by a week. It can be done faster, but it's incredibly difficult.

I decided to participate as well. I only completed one playthrough, so I probably won't be able to compete with the leaders. But the map is very fun, and I enjoyed it.

Save file submitted.

Dear Kash and others. As Dirty Player rightly pointed out, the map you were given to play is quite different from the original. Try playing the original, and then you can boast about your skills. I'll note that this map is far from the most difficult in the campaign. Play the first 3 levels, and I will publicly declare that I am a loser and don't know how to play. If you can't, unfortunately. I've heard a lot from both Kash and Dirty Player that there's nothing difficult about it. However, neither of the opponents provided save files or even said in words that they had completed it.

I'm intrigued. Share the link! Where can I download the campaign?

Try to complete the original, and then it will be worth shouting about your own skill.

Could you please provide a link to where someone was shouting about their skill? :confused: Only you were shouting about skill. I don't understand, why should we prove our skill to you, and not the other way around? Usually, someone who is skilled proves their words with actions, and challenges others. To make it clear what you are capable of, play a tournament, even on this "inferior" map. (especially since you completed the original, this map will seem like an easy walk for you). After comparing your result with the winner's result (although most likely it will be the same result), a COMPLETE conclusion can be made about your skill.

Everyone here hears a lot from medstrax, but it's all just talk, and he hasn't shown anything at all. :D

Started playing the original Medstrah map. I might finish it in about 400 days, not sure how long it will take, I've forgotten when I last played with computer-controlled opponents. But I won't go to sleep until I finish it. Wait for the save file :cool:

update: I finished it as promised, "oh great and unique one." Of course, I played like a noob, finishing it on the first try in 73 days (Date 333), without thinking too much. I just played for fun. And I'm sure you'll see how it can be done in just a few days after the tournament ends.

There's an opinion that we shouldn't expect a save file to be released. We need to assess our own capabilities.
I think there are only a few people on this forum who can actually complete this map.

Few players with your arrogance can beat anyone from our forum in a consistent game.)))
It has been proven many times, especially in online play!!!!

Understand!:smile30: The competition here isn't about who completes it, but who completes it FASTER:smile26:... Honestly, it seems like you're 10 years old and have only been playing Heroes 3 for a week:smile09:
