I played several times with 600+300 settings. I didn't have enough time for a proper fast-paced game, except for Jebus – but even then, towards the end of the game (weeks 3-4), I still had about 1,500 resources left. On small maps, it's tight, but manageable.

By the way, I honestly still don't understand why play on a template like that (e.g., SMKA) after which I often see people arguing, saying that my Dragon Utopia loot was bad and yours was good, and that's why you won! In my opinion, it's more fun and kinder to remove Dragon Utopias from the template, like in Balance, and not have to deal with that headache.
By the way, does anyone know how Balance differs from Balance_PC2? I just came across it on a Polish site

In my opinion, it would be more fun and kinder to exclude Dragon Utopias from the template, as is done in Balance, and avoid all these troubles)
The trouble is that if you exclude Dragon Utopias, something else will be own-luck. External dwellings, Griffin Conservatories. In Balance, there are very few truly balanced distributions; usually one person is noticeably better off, and there's no way to compensate for it.

A different path of balancing is needed here — on the contrary, lots and lots of everything so that due to the sum of a large number of random factors, the average values end up close to each other.

This is precisely why skilled players for the most part prefer larger templates, meaning various XL+U ones, where the contents of the home resp don't play as big a role.

Is there a template where heroic deeds only involve native troops (without mercenaries and other such things) and where the treasure contains a minimum number of artifacts that will influence the outcome, but not significantly?

Isn't there a template where heroic deeds only happen with native troops (without mercenaries and other goodies) and where there are very few artifacts scattered in the treasure, which will influence the outcome, but not significantly?
There is! It's called TC3 :D

There are so-called "Polish rules," where the Balance template is used, and taking hidden locations is prohibited. Instead of angels and sprites, money is given in castles and outposts.

This is probably the most boring set of rules I know.

There isn't much imbalance in terms of troops, so all the imbalance is reduced to skills that give bonuses to the hero, and to spells in the guild.

From a distance, it looks like something good and objective; I need to take a closer look. Could you please attach this map?

Lide1, thanks, I'll check it out, but it smells like a mess.

There probably aren't any such templates. But in the panic template, there are no utopias, which might be closer to your opinion. It's also very unlikely to find a powerful artifact there. The treasures contain clues. Of course, in the native respawn, you can often find very good items from nagabanks and cons.

I'm currently playing on the L map with a balanced setup; I broke through the sands into a treasure zone and saw this…

Has anyone else encountered such a strange combination involving an undead creature? ))

I wonder if anyone has encountered Dragon Utopia on balance?)

I've encountered them many times. There are tons of "balance" templates, and they're all the same – "balanced."

Jebus Cross is an old noob.

Aaaah, I get it now, you're talking about the opponent; damn, I thought you were talking about the Jebus Cross template: D

By the way, Cobra, he’s jumping all over the place on VCL, and you called him a noob: D

Not exactly a noob; he has a 3-1 record against Captain.
