How can I quickly split up my army? When playing online, it takes a lot of time to separate the troops!

There is an HD mod. It can be installed on any version of the game.

Hello! I have a few questions:
1) Please explain what the different versions of Heroes are (WT, TE).
2) In Heroes of Might and Magic, there are many different options. Is there a kind of tournament setup or standard that most players use? (Because sometimes my friends and I can't agree, so we just play with random settings).
3) I have the Platinum Edition from The Book. Does it correspond to the SOD version 4.0? Can I play online with someone who has SOD 4.0?

Hello! I have a few questions.

1. VT and TE (VT is more popular now) are versions created specifically for online games; they contain quite a few changes regarding both balance and convenience. You can read about them here: /topic/6077/
2. People practically don't play WoG online because of its imbalance. As for the settings in VT, players usually agree on them before the game, ranging from "VT-full" to "as much as possible with SoD"...
3. Platinum from Booki is version 4.0. It connects normally with patched SoD 3.2.

P.S.: Qf1! and checkmate in 3 moves ;)

It's not that simple for White here. First, the position shows a moment when it's Black's turn to move. IMO, the best move for them is to move the bishop to E5. Now try to checkmate in 4 moves :-P

No, this features the famous composition by S. Lloyd, "Love Chase," and Dirty_Player; it's likely familiar or easy to understand. Everything is correct: Qf1! After that, checkmate in 2 moves.

I've seen it somewhere, but I had to solve it again. By the way, I just checked, and if Black moves first, they cannot avoid checkmate in 3 moves; some of the variations are quite beautiful.

Just quickly glanced at it at work and modeled the situation on the board when the 3rd black pawn is on f4.

And the fish says:

1. ... Bf6 2. Ng6+ hxg6 3. Qxg4 Bg5 4. Qxg5 Kh7 5. Qh4#

За то что нейтралы не бегают за единичкой, для меня это уже стоит того

Damn, I thought that with any move of the bishop, we would go Qf1 and position ourselves next to the bishop. But no, there's g4-g3-g2, CHECK :)

Okay, people can’t navigate the forum, can’t find the right topic, but can’t they even read the post above?!
