Two of my heroes aren't working! That's frustrating! :( I wish everyone good luck! ;)

Find me on ICQ or in private messages, and we'll try to solve the problem... Although, if you have Windows XP SP2, it's pointless...

Question: why? Please explain....

To Kyle: it's a standard rule that has survived all four tournaments... accept it as a given.

2 Kyle, it's a standard rule that has survived all four tournaments... just accept it as a given.
Of course, I can accept that... and I will... I just wanted to hear a comprehensive answer: Why can't you hire dead/escaped enemy heroes? :smile32:

I'm afraid his ICQ isn't working either. :) (why? - see below)

You need to remove the krivye_ruki.sys driver from the system directory, because everyone else has it working :)

It's clear that Kyle doesn't buy his own underwear and t-shirts, since he doesn't know the sizes :)

During my first playthrough, I noticed that each week, some population receives a +5 bonus. However, this doesn't affect the number of my troops.
I also noticed this, but after 2-3 reloads, everything was fine.
The map is really good, and it's great that it's for the Barbarian faction! Otherwise, it would be cold for a Knight to run around in the snow (steel freezes), but Barbarians are all in furs (warm and it softens the impact).
As far as I remember, in the second game, Barbarians dominate on small maps!!! Right?

The Barbarians dominate on small maps in all the games. And in general, they are the best, they don't care about anything, they wear furs!

Let's not offend the Knights, they are among us.

Barbarians dominate on small maps in All. And in general, they are awesome, they don't care about anything, they are in furs!

He wasn't in the first one either (does he not play them?)
And in general... are there any all-rounders here?

Question regarding the rules: there's nothing mentioned about the situation when the game ends at night, after the player completes their turn and the turn passes to the computer.
To reiterate the paradoxical situation: in regular maps, the next day is recorded in the leaderboard (after the turn passes), while in campaigns, it's the current day, the one that just ended.
It's clear that, strictly speaking, both approaches are incorrect. Here, an approach like day 25.5 would be more appropriate than 25 or 26.
In this regard, it might be worthwhile to include the following point in the rules:
"If the game ends after the turn passes, the result is recorded according to the leaderboard (i.e., the next day); however, if the results are the same, the participant who finished "half

Qwerty is our expert on the second game.
I'm now an expert on the first game. :)
Yes, he signed up, I think.
He doesn't play, he just plays a little. :)
All-rounders, you say... Well, I've played all versions, except for WOG and TE. The fifth one didn't really grab me, and the fourth one was too long. But to play all versions of Heroes at a good level - I don't

I don't understand at all how I can personally track who left the computer and who died. Can they not be bought at all, or what? This rule is very unclear - please explain it in detail or remove it.

I am against the rule regarding +5 monsters of type X.

Alan, everything changes eventually... :)

This rule is IMPOSSIBLE to track in the game!
I gave an example with Heroes 1. When the computer attacks with a level 1 hero against centaurs and they die. You will never know if it was a computer player or not! You can't track it, and I can't track it, and no one can track it at all :)

Therefore, it's better to allow it! I would even say that it should be allowed and this point should be removed from the rules!

I agree. But I will explain why. Alan won't be checking every player's save file every week and counting how many units they have. Therefore, there remains the possibility of cheating, even if it's unintentional, meaning someone might forget to adjust the turn with the +5 bonus and accidentally end up with more troops. Removing this ban will put players on equal footing - if you want +5 troops, choose a load save :)

This rule CAN be tracked. To do this, all players must make daily saves. And, upon request, provide them along with a detailed walkthrough.
As for the example given above, a level 1 hero is not considered "leveled up"; a leveled-up hero is one that has gained at least one level.
