After a joint discussion (with Vic and Vasya), we have agreed on the following system for running the championship. It's simple, strict, and clear.
1. Default Game Version
WoT (Warlords of the Throne) without tax, without creature experience, without a bank, without classes, with GM restructuring, without a greed stack, without neutral morale, with scrolls converted to gold, with one-sided artifacts.
By mutual agreement, players can play any version.
2. Templates
jebus cross (fast roads, timer 4000+500, subjective restarts 2 days in total, no restarts for encounters, no redraw allowed),
8mm6a (medium roads, timer 4000+500, subjective restarts 3 days in total, restart for encounter 116 inclusive, redraw allowed),
diamond (fast roads, timer 4000+400, subjective restarts 2 days in total, restart for encounter 115 inclusive, redraw allowed),
2sm4d(3) (medium roads, timer 4000+400, subjective restarts 2 days in total, restart for encounter 115 inclusive, redraw allowed),
h3dm1 (medium roads, timer 4000+500, no subjective restarts, redraw allowed, infiltrating the opponent's plane during the first week - allowed).
Objective restarts (blocks, missing road to the main town, etc.) for all templates - only after subjective restarts.
Castles are determined by a button in the WoT chat, after which trading takes place. For a mirror match, the first of the two castles that appear is chosen. The color is also determined by trading. For 500 in-game gold, you can "regenerate" once. If, after regeneration, at least 1 castle from the previous pair of castles appears, you can regenerate for free.
3. Tournament Scheme
Olympic-style tournament with 32 players, with a random draw for rounds 1-2 and rounds 3-4 (after round 2, a new draw). If there are fewer than 32 participants, the champions of previous CIS tournaments, as well as participants who have added 1/2 of a buy-in to the prize pool, will be freely admitted to the second round (if they wish).
4. Entry Fee (Buy-in)
$100 USD from each participant, $50 USD from each spectator/fan (except wives, children, etc.).
5. Additional prize fund from the organizers: currently $1000 USD. This may be increased.
6. Prizes
1st place - $2000 USD,
2nd place - 2/3 of the remaining prize fund,
3rd place - 1/3 of the remaining prize fund.
7. Real time for the game for the first 2 rounds
10 hours + 1 additional hour (in case of an obvious completion of the game during that hour). If there is no result after the allotted time, a final battle (FB) will be scheduled - with the forces available at the moment. No leniency or extra days for building, hiring, etc.
