The 18th offline tournament "May 9th - Victory Day!" on the map "Victory Day! (by VDV_forever)"

TOURNAMENT RULES

1. To participate in the eighteenth offline Heroes 1 tournament "May 9th - Victory Day!", you must register on our website www.heroesworld.ru and also submit an application in this thread.

2. The tournament will be held on the Russian version of Heroes 1 from Buky. The save file will be generated on the Russian version 1.1.

3. The goal of the game is to return the WWII veterans' awards that were stolen on the eve of the great holiday – Victory Day!
Task: You need to capture 12 orders (medals) from ogres who guard them on Medal Island.
2 Medals of Courage;
4 Medals of Bravery;
6 Medals of Valor.

You can take the orders and medals from the paws of the thieves together with the computer, because only in this tournament – the computer is declared your ally!

Note – medals and orders obtained from chests, skeletons, etc., will not count!

The winner of this tournament receives a prize in the form of a Medal of Courage (in the profile and under the avatar) with the symbolism of the St. George ribbon.:smile49:

This tournament is rated and published on the website http://www.reytinghmm1.ho.ua/, so you need to earn your rating now, since at the end of the year the best player on our site according to the ranking will receive a separate prize in the form of an absolute champion's cup, as well as an honorary certificate sent by mail. The rating will be calculated for 2010.

4. The result will be evaluated primarily based on the shortest number of days. In case of equal days, the qualifying criterion is the sum of primary skills (attack, defense, magic, knowledge) INCLUDING WORN ARTIFACTS; if there is still no clear favorite, then it will be determined by the amount of mercury.

I’m signing up!

I will be playing as the "Vampires" clan. Why isn't the tournament on the latest patch?

Unfortunately, there is a minor issue in the patch that currently prevents us from holding the tournament on it. :( I hope that AlexSPl will be able to fix it soon. ;)

I'm participating, clan "Witches". I'll probably play in the last few days, as I won't have much time before the end of May.

Sign me up too.

Save file sent. Thank you for the tournament!

I enjoyed the tournament, but I don't have time to replay it. And most importantly - I'm too lazy!

Save file sent. Thank you for the interesting tournament! :smile54:

Everyone, everyone, everyone! Don't miss your chance to test your skills in a competition against three game masters who have already submitted their walkthroughs! Perhaps you will be able to at least come close to their amazing results (but don't even try to surpass them - it's simply impossible!). Hurry, because the Door of Enlightenment will soon close, and only the Enlightened will be on the other side of it.

I agree with the previous post!
But I'll add: You have a unique chance to outperform the game masters, who sometimes suffer from bouts of that relic-like laziness! :)

I'm glad that the time spent creating the map wasn't wasted. Judging by your feedback, you liked the tournament itself and the winning condition! Thank you for this assessment, and of course, for participating in the game!:smile13:

I hope our WishmasteR won't let us down;)

Just so no one has to wait – I have 6 days.

Preliminary results of the tournament have been summarized:

I told you that SVK is a future champion! ;) Congratulations on this first victory! Please upload daily saves with comments for everyone to see (and later add them to the reference guide) in this thread.:smile54:

P.S. AlexSPl, you got too relaxed :)

Thank you all very much for participating!... A month-long break; I hope that in a month we will gather a larger number of participants for the anniversary tournament!

Sincerely, VDV_forever

SVK, well done! Congratulations on your victory! You actually managed to do it in 5 days! Did the Barbarian have enough movement points to collect all the medals?

Right away, a question: did the compass get stolen? I assumed it was possible, but I didn't risk fighting the Orcs, Minotaurs, and Ogres without reliable attack and defense, so I went to get artifacts on the left. Besides, since the artifacts took up space in the inventory, I had to take a second Barbarian, who collected some of the medals.

I'm waiting for the walkthrough and save files.

Added 6 minutes later

P.S. AlexSPl, you've been relaxing.

This is all because of the sleepless nights spent on Dragon Age and Disciples III :)
