Now we just need to wait for Zhenya to decide and organize it. :D By the way, if the tournament takes place, which I really hope it does, we need to discuss two very important points:
1) Stalemate situation. Do we fight it out or declare a draw? (I lean towards the latter and consider it fair) 2) Black? Who attacks? Choice of battlefield? (not that important either way)

1) Everything as usual: whoever attacked in a stalemate must retreat. 2) Doesn't matter:o
By the way, if the tournament takes place, which I really hope it does, we need to discuss two very important points:
for me, they are slightly different (because I once had the idea for a tournament too... ^_^) 1) Will Fortress participate? 2) How to deal with desynchronization (unfortunately, after "Arena HW" and the battle with Rhox... (by the way, both were Necropolis - and the Necropolis horses beat the skeletons, haha - in my version) this is a pressing issue for me... there was terrible desynchronization... =)

They made Fortress an invincible monster in TC3. :smile24: :D

1) There are no draws here, otherwise half of the matches will end in a draw. We need to fight it out. That's how it was in the tournaments for TC3. 2) There is no choice of battlefield; one teleports in, and the other attacks immediately without seeing them.

By the way, I forgot! The most important question is, what to do if there is a disconnect during a battle? Due to the presence of boots of resistance, repeating the battle might be problematic...
2Rapper: I recently encountered desynchronization while playing against a "Britva" (a specific player or strategy)... The issue is that it's not even clear what caused it and who was to blame...
P.S.: Regarding the idea of troops fighting - I don't agree with this point. If I have one dragon against a stack of dendroids, why should I make them fight, thus making a weak move against my will? :confused:
2Rapper: I recently encountered desynchronization during a game... The thing is, the cause and who was to blame are unclear...
Exactly... Rhom and I even argued, calling each other liars, etc. After a certain turn of units, we were playing in different battles – he in his, I in mine (of course, we both won against each other). We both had logs (I was chatting with Kami at that time, and Tanya was watching the battle, he was with someone else). But then, Tamika with the Cyclops turned out to be stronger than Galtrash with the skeletons... and the most interesting thing is that the save after the battle turned out to be glitchy; that is, I saved it, but when I opened it, it turned out that 2 heroes were standing there as if they hadn't fought, even though the save time and everything else were the same (right after the battle)! And there was a screenshot (I think)... You can ask Vbn... he was also puzzled at the time! How did this happen? Who knows! It would be one thing if the desynchronization was in just one unit (i.e., he sees that my unit is moving, and I see his), but this is something else... It's unpleasant to even remember... And I don't know what to do in such a situation... I was declared the winner then, but next time, there might be arguments on the forum, another scandal, and a series of departures (you know how it happens; we resolved the whole problem in private) – which is undesirable! Therefore, here, everything needs to be discussed carefully and BEFORE the tournament! And discussed without personal attacks, anger, and rudeness! P.S.:
That’s what the tournament was like. By the way, it wasn’t finished. And Artem (Stinger) and I used to play all the time, as did Tolyan (Starik).
That’s exactly what I’m talking about. Now, things have changed, and strong players don’t seem to be in a hurry to play against each other unless a tournament situation brings them together. When was the last time you played a fun game with Stinger (who, according to him, is often available during the day), Cobra, or Paladin?
Having played my first ten games on TC3, I'm wondering if it's possible to develop a more or less standard theory that applies to all situations, similar to how the esteemed Forrest described the Rampart + Tower combinations for Humans + Swamp, but for all possible combinations...
Let's start with identifying which pairs exclude Sylvan or Berserkers. For example, Swamp excludes Sylvan with almost everyone, except maybe Tower, although if you think about it, why not with expert tactics, a strong defense, and Water:rolleyes:. Berserkers are also tricky, and I was once caught off guard by them in a ranged setup with my Conflux (unsuccessfully:p), and I myself have caught someone with a Conflux with a complete advantage:cool:.
And in general, the +2 option (like "melee":) ) seems to be quite popular: about 75% of games are built around it, what's the catch:smile32:? After all, there's also mass haste and mass slow...

I'll briefly describe it to revive the topic.
We played three games with Wlk in a full random match the other day.
Wlk: Swamp, Inferno, def Lider1 dungeon, Inferno.
I took: +2, offense, defense, fire, and berserk.
Wlk took: +2, offense, defense, mass haste. The game didn't last long. After mass haste, I rushed in with a berserker, I think, and tried to cast some spells, but in the end, GG.
The second game gave me Necropolis and Swamp, I think (the saves are gone, I don't remember), and the opponent got Castle and Rampart. I took Earth, and the opponent took Water. This one was even more straightforward, with anti-morale on my side. A complete rout.
But the third game was the most interesting: D
I had Rampart, Stronghold, and the opponent had Swamp, Inferno.
I took +2, offense, defense, and air, a basic tactic, +4 spell power, 80 mana, boots, and exchanged the fifth artifact for gold as always.
Wlk also took +2, offense, defense, water, and some un-upgraded guys with whips. It was a long and intense battle. I now realize that I need to write down my impressions immediately so I can remember everything. During the battle, I made many mistakes, which Wlk took advantage of several times: D, but in the end, the starting conditions were in my favor. In the end, there were 16 Ogres left against one Hydra, and I thought she would finish him off; she was an indestructible beast. I also messed up by shooting bolts at the Devils instead of the Hydras, because of their retaliatory attack and mass attack, but I managed to recover somehow.
Thanks for the games :)

Good day! I was thinking, shouldn't we create something more complex than Heroes of Might and Magic III? After all, not enough of the tactical diversity of the game has been explored. I'm currently looking for information about Heroes of Might and Magic IV; if anyone has it, please share it with me.
If everything is okay, I'll try to create an arena... it will just take a while to balance it.
pHOMM, I already tried to edit the map editor for Heroes 3, but the developers didn't like it. If you need anything, feel free to message me – I'll share my work.
