Offline Tournament "Evil Lands".

TOURNAMENT RULES

1. To participate in the first offline tournament, "Best of the best," you must register on our website www.heroesworld.ru and submit an application in this thread.

2. The tournament will be held on the Russian version of Heroes 1 (Platinum from Buky).

3. Each player can only submit one final save! (Repeatedly submitted saves will not be considered!)

4. The submitted save must contain the tournament number (1), the participant's tournament number, and the abbreviation (ZZ - Evil Lands), as well as the player's nickname.

Example:

1_1_ZZ_Admin.GM1

1_2_ZZ_VDV_forever.GM1

5. Along with the submitted save, it is mandatory to provide a description of the last step (battle with a hero, battle for a castle, capturing an artifact, defeating the last monster) after which the victory or scenario completion occurs.

6. Cheating programs, codes, and any additional programs that allow you to change the game structure are PROHIBITED!

7. The result will be evaluated primarily based on the shortest time. If several players have equal times, the best will be determined by the sum of primary skills (attack, defense, magic, knowledge) INCLUDING WORN ARTIFACTS; if a favorite still cannot be determined, then by the amount of mercury.

8. You can only dig up the Grail when the puzzle map is fully revealed.

9. Send saves to the email address VDV_forever@BK.RU

10. Applications are accepted until November 14, 2006.

11. In case of suspicion of cheating or other malicious intent during gameplay, it is necessary to save every day.
In this case (detection of cheating), the player must send additional saves and provide a description of the playthrough to determine whether the play was fair or not, to the tournament organizer. The results of a player who played unfairly will be disqualified, and their further participation in tournaments will be impossible. This will also affect their reputation negatively.

12. Discussion of the tournament during its course is welcome!!!
(Players who follow this rule will automatically earn my recognition:). Just please do not reveal your final result until the end of the tournament.

13. The tournament starts on October 25th and lasts until November 15th (inclusive!). The results will be announced on November 17th.

14. After receiving your save, we will notify you via email at our website http://www.heroesworld.ru/

P.S. I wish all participants good luck with the game and most importantly VICTORY!

P.S.S. If there are any additions or comments, please don't hesitate to express them so that we can minimize disagreements and shortcomings in the process of conducting the tournament

2 Prorock Hmm, I wouldn't say that such a system requires a lot of intelligence from the AI. I think that the simplicity of their tactics is what creates their so-called "genius." But the fact that they are so aggressive, as if they were doused in скипидар, is true; they start attacking from the sixth day....

P.S. I hope there will be enthusiasts who conquer this map and are ready for the next one.

Aggression is generated by animal instinct, the desire to live...:)

I haven't started playing the map yet, but I've already seen it.

I managed to last a month!!! But I'm still far from winning the map... Hydras are very strong, and Warlocks shoot lightning:)))

And you fight them with trolls, trolls, and, of course, archers:)

Alan;42533

It's tough with the hydras, but the magic system is something else... I've already lost a lot of trolls on the starting heroes, haha...

That's where the excitement is!:)

But this won't allow completing the map in an extremely short time.

That's right, it's full of extreme challenges:) .

Prorock;42540

which will make the Tournaments difficult, challenging, and interesting.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the Tournament; I tried my best:o

I almost got it! I figured out how to play in the first Heroes game. The main thing is to know when they're going to attack you.

I confirm. He came to me on the 4th day. :)
By the way, as I see it, a very good tactic is to weaken the opponent by luring him into a trap. That is, you leave a city empty and hang around nearby with a weak hero. You'll see what happens in 2-4 days. :) A crowd of weak computer heroes will come running.
Then you defend yourself while standing in the castle. And the defense in the castle, I tell you, is not like in Heroes 1, 2, 3, or even Heroes 4. Once, with a single sprite, I killed about 40 Ogres and 20 Dwarves, without any magic. :) I hope I don't need to explain how that happened. :)

In short, I liked the map; in the first 1.5 weeks, I killed about 6 enemy heroes, and they keep coming and coming! :)
By the way, it reminds me of the second level of the Campaigns. :)

Good luck to everyone!

You were just lucky that he didn't have any magic (apparently) :)
Because otherwise, the faster ogres or dwarves would have caught that sprite easily :D

Yeah...:):):)...so you can have time to pray before you die!:):):):):)

Very good tactic:
You give the Castle to the opponent, and with weak Heroes, you move away not far, at a distance of 1 day. And you can continue like this until the beginning of the week, to buy an army and defeat him!
You can even move further than a distance of 1 turn, but then you need to calculate so that you have time before the beginning of the week. In this case, there is a chance to COMPLETELY avoid the collision - he will most likely run to the other end of the map (to terrorize your other cities:):):)).
It's like the Tatar-Mongol Yoke!:)

In general, that's how we live...

Prorock.

13. Discussing the tournament while it is in progress is prohibited!!!
(Players who violate this rule will automatically be disqualified from participating in the tournament; their results will not be counted and will be annulled).

I hope the Tournament Committee won't be too strict about this rule, or we'll all be in trouble... and him too 8))).

At the very least, I didn't break any rules!!!:):):)

I only saw the map with one eye, and I never even played a single game day.
I was describing the general tactics for fighting this creature.
I THINK THE OTHERS WERE ALSO describing situations in general terms...right guys?;):)!?!

I hope the Airborne Troops won't adhere to this rule too strictly, otherwise we'll all be in trouble... and so will he 8))).

We're not that professional here, and we're not playing for money.
So, I think this rule only hinders both the interest and the development of less experienced players.
We need to share impressions and information to maintain the gameplay/interest. So, I don't think we'll be scolded for it :)

Regarding the tactic of surrendering a city for 2 days:
On the one hand, it's not bad - the computer can build something during the next day. And if you recapture it after the end of the week, more troops will be generated in the castle, especially on a high difficulty level.
But there are more drawbacks:
- In Heroes 1, every resource counts! :)
- Recapturing the city might turn out to be much more difficult, especially without magic or strong flying and ranged units. (in any case, you won't avoid losses, and you need to be prepared for that)
So, before surrendering a city, you need to think it through carefully.

And holding the defense is the best thing, and the most suitable units for this (in order of decreasing effectiveness) are: Hydra, Troll, and Ogre. (flying units are only so-so). The rest are just okay.
Moreover, note that the attack power from a tower depends on each building, even on the Chief Guild, Tavern, and Well!

Good luck to everyone! :)

(Come on, quickly give me some approvals (not to be confused with fertilizers)! :) )

And I didn't wait for them to be built; I immediately went to the front lines, without trolls. :)

But you guessed wrong. :) Why wait for someone? It's better to pay the enemy a visit first! :D
I realized something else: the most important thing is to capture the Castle with Phoenixes as quickly as possible, and then build them up and ALL!
P.S. Magic is very powerful on this map! ;)
