Posts from 3rd offline tournament

As a beginner, can I ask a simple question? I have Heroes of Might and Magic III "In the Wake of Gods," can I use this version?
Or should I find Shadow of Death and apply the patches mentioned on the website? There was also talk about some WOG patch.
I'm still not very familiar with this.

I'm ashamed, but I don't know how to open a portal! :(
What's the deal.

Yes, WoG 3.58f. All that remains is to install TE. I didn't quite understand, the rules say that you need to download a 30 MB archive, but on this site I only found "Full Russian version of TE 1.03f" (845KB) at the URL http://heroesv.net.ru/up_files/hmm/wog/te/TE1.03f_rus_heroesV.zip
Is this enough? If not, please provide a direct link to what is needed.
Although the quests work even on WoG 3.58f.
Thank you very much for your answers.

To natasha
I watched your battle against the respected Pred. And I noticed one inconsistency: How did you (natasha) manage to have 121 Titans?
Even if you build Titans in 2 cities on the first day (with upgraded castles) + 2 Giant recruiters, and + a Legionnaire Statue in your inventory, you would only have around 110 Titans, but you have 121!
How is that possible? Can anyone explain?

Easy - 3 creatures each in the summoning portals in Dungeons every week, at least starting from the third week, and there could also have been a Grail that increases growth in one of the castles. You could have gathered as many as 130 there!

I simulated the situation where she has everything in her hands on the FIRST DAY!!!
(except for the Grail and portals)
If you look at it that way, the Grail and the statue can be obtained at the beginning of the 2nd month, and the portals, at best, at the end of the 1st.
In the second month, she can get 64-85 Titans (but 65 is a dream, largely unattainable!)
And in the first month, she will get a few, maybe a little more than 25!
How is this possible?
After all, she wasn't just dealing with Titans!
It is necessary to:
1. Search for the Grail
2. Collect the Legionnaire
3. Capture Rampart, sell all the junk, and save money
4. Repel the Barbarian invasion
5. Manage to capture the Dungeon and Inferno in time.

There are only 8 heroes! How?
I dreamed of one Legionnaire statue for the first month, and I assembled it in record time on 1-4-7! Did she do it earlier?

Forgive me for so many questions, but I am very interested.:):)

Dear nprf, maybe let natasha, upon her arrival, tell us about her strategic plans herself!? This will be the most reliable way to get this information.

But still, thank you for responding to my question!:)

P.S. I definitely do NOT want to involve you in unfair play. My subconscious tells me that it is POSSIBLE, and I simply have a quite logical question: HOW?
I think this information will be important not only for me, and it may help other participants to reveal the essence of the mystery and help them in future tournaments!

Thank you in advance.:)

Sincerely,
Prorock.

Well, I don't know about others, but I had all three dungeons cleared by the end of the second week! I didn't bother digging for the Grail, but it was definitely possible by the end of the first month. There are also some interesting objects – refuges; theoretically, you could get something good from them starting from the second week. I assembled the statue on days 1, 3, and 7. It would be interesting to see how to quickly take Inferno when starting as Tower, but Natasha didn't manage to do it quickly. And her entire tactic would be interesting in a game on SoD. That is, Orrin and liches!!! But Orrin and demons don't work. Barbarians are generally the first to fall when starting as Tower; they just take a long time to reach the rampart.
And the record time for the statue is 1-2-7, but what's the point of such records? It's better to subdue the computer players in a timely manner.
And in general, the number of archangels and titans, plus or minus 10, doesn't really affect anything; other things are more important. For example, when starting as Tower, I wouldn't even go for the giant dwellings in the first week!

But I'm more interested in something else. How do you defeat 7000 golems in the third round without the Ring of Magic? I just don't have enough magic to slow them down! Has anyone managed to do it???

I'm also more interested in the third turn. It doesn't work; mana really runs out. Is it really only with intelligence now!?
And I also can't get the golems to join one unit on TE. It's easy on SoD, but not on TE! What's going on???

That's the problem, and it's the same in SoD! You have to fight them a little differently!
And I want to learn Armageddon!!! I wonder, if you flee from a battle, can you learn it, or do you have to win the battle? Something isn't working.

Interesting point. One hero stands on his own territory, the other on his, and what will happen in the arena?
+ in the tournament, there should be at least one round where magic really matters! :) :)

Explain why they should be taken down?
When I took them down using codes, I didn't get anything!
Maybe it's because I didn't have enough wisdom!?

Then explain why you are chasing Armageddon so hard?

Explain why they need to be killed?
When I killed them with cheats, I got nothing!
Maybe it's because I didn't have Wisdom!?

Then explain why you're all so eager for Armageddon?
