Too many rules and prohibitions, and tired of constantly following them, but "Anarchy" feels too cramped? Then this is the place for you! In this tournament, you can—and more importantly, must—play on any maps without any rules! Welcome to a world of lawlessness.
"Outlaw!"


I. Regulations and Deadlines.

Anyone may participate in the tournament who is registered on the HeroesWorld.ru forum for at least 3 months and has at least one game filed in accordance with the forum rules.
Tournament start – February 22, 2014.
The draw will take place on February 21, 2014.
Time limit per game – 2 weeks.

Tournament format - Double Elimination.
The final is played as a best-of-three with a 1:0 advantage for the winner's bracket finalist.

After the draw, a participant bracket is formed. After the 1st round, those who lose in this bracket form the 2nd play-off bracket. Subsequently, a loser from the 1st bracket enters the 2nd bracket; a loser from the 2nd bracket is eliminated from the tournament.

II. Rules and Maps.

1. Only the rule of fair play applies; everything else is permitted.
2. Game version SoD 3.2 (4.0) + HD-mod
3. The map is chosen by a standard draw from 7 maps. Blue starts drawing the map and castles (colors will be indicated in the bracket):
1) Jebus Cross
2) 2sm4d(3)
3) 8mm6a
4) 6lm10a
5) diamond
6) mini-nostalgia
7) Spider
Opponents may mutually agree to play on any other map, as well as regarding full random games.

4. Time per turn: Chess timer 24:8:1.
Starting difficulty 160%

5. Restarts – 111 + 112.
Please note that since there are no rules, technical restarts for blocks, a single road in ГО, lack of a road to the center, etc., are naturally cancelled. So use your restarts sparingly and carefully, rather than searching for chocolates.

III. Organizational Matters.

1. The tournament is unofficial.
2. The tournament is conducted according to the Rules for organization, conduct, and participation in tournaments.
3. Tournament Director - GoD (ICQ 647139286).
Tournament Judges - Dirty_Player (ICQ 408722873), Pit for LM (ICQ 471401475); Gomunguls (ICQ 499978341).
4. For every game played, participants must submit a report and confirmation.
5. Saves of all games must be kept until the end of the tournament and presented upon first request by the tournament directors or any member of the AC.
6. Disputed points, should any arise, are requested to be discussed off-forum. For resolution, you must contact the director or a tournament judge via ICQ and provide daily saves, ICQ logs, and other necessary information.
The same's decision is based primarily on the tournament rules. If the situation is not regulated by the rules, judges are guided by basic logic and gaming ethics.
7. All tournament games go into the seasonal rating. Reports and confirmations are written in this thread and will be copied to the "Online game reports and their confirmations" thread.
8. The Director has the right to make any changes to the regulations and rules during the tournament, as well as
the right to refuse participation to any player without a public explanation of reasons.

Have you tried all versions of Hamachi? Some users, including myself, find that only 1.0.3.0 works reliably (although if the dogma requires the latest versions of the programs, it's a bit sad).

The only breakable path on the 1st day led to a necro-comp; out of pure carelessness, I gave him my main warrior, Luna (who wanted to get a +3+3 shield behind the fish and a kettle behind the horns). On the second, I broke through the other directions; diplomacy was going very sluggishly despite material independence (had up to 50k). At the start of the 3rd, the opp takes the castle, near which is the only respawn with normal guards—but that's also where the lookout and stables are—the enemy with DD covered it immediately... I could have risked it, but decided to go off-road to reach another road network, and ended up under the opp anyway.

What does "replacement" mean? If we're still making replacements in the Olympic Games, it will be a real disaster. Try GameRanger, maybe it will help? In general, our games run through Hamachi by default. Therefore, Hamachi should be fixed. I don't know what the problems might be. Maybe the router is causing problems, or something else? If anyone knows what the reason is or can help the players, I would be grateful.
I used to play with Redwait often... through Hamachi, there were no problems.
Now he has Windows 8... maybe that's the reason... or he changed his provider... I didn't ask.
Now I thought that for GameRanger, you need to create a special executable file somehow. Maybe this will help, because in GameRanger we don't have any special characters (i.e., GameRanger doesn't see any connection problems).
If anyone can tell me what steps to take for the mod so that GameRanger starts and connects, we will be grateful :)

UPD: FAVorite helped Redwait - "something old was holding back the adapter from installing"

Tournament bracket

I've updated the bracket and added deadlines at the top. Please don't delay, or I'll start getting aggressive at Darkello's request :D
What's the point of having deadlines in the bracket if they aren't enforced? Where is Darkello (((

Vova and Rebellius are playing on a saved game, it's a long game, and they asked to add a little more time. I hope they'll finish it today or tomorrow. If not, I'll post the results on Friday morning.

I scribbled down a Necropolis for myself, used up all the restarts, and Isra as the second hero. Built the upgrade structure, broke through where I could, the skeleton count hovered around a hundred, took losses during the breakthrough. Seems like I finished off the computer, but he popped back up with a ton of mana and a marksman, the Citadel didn't hold. Had to set up a chain and finish him off for good, the Necro engine was running well; by the time of contact, I had nearly 500 skeletons, 3 angels, and 18 vampire lords. In the final fight, the presence of offense/armor decided it; we maneuvered for a long time, and I was left with a stack of skeletons against a stack of angels; the skeletons held in defense. Thanks for the game.

A long and tense match, which we miraculously managed to win.
At first there was an advantage; I quickly found 2 books of Air Magic. Without Town Portal, I didn't push the attack, but I took Dragon Utopias, several of which the Necromancer gobbled up)))
After the first fight (FF [Fight/Final Fight]), where the opponent bought himself out, suffering considerable losses but also severely thinning out my army, a persistent feeling arose that I was playing against a Cartographer — the army advantage very quickly shifted to the Blue player.
After playing all night, we postponed it at 10 AM with 213 hours [on the timer] — even though we both hate adjournments, there was no other choice :confused:
The resumption turned out to be more critical for the opponent, although we reloaded several times to remember the situation — at the moment of the save, Blue had a plan to break into my base, but after the save, the Blue hero blocking the one-way passage fled from it, and time was lost.
As for me, it was a disaster — still no Town Portal, no Logistics on my main, not even a hint of a Cartographer, unclear what to do; the only plus was that my stats were still higher.
On about the second and a half attempt, I finally build Town Portal, venture onto the snow, and find a Cartographer next to a bunch of Hives the opponent had devoured. Besides the surface, I see a piece of Lava terrain underground with 2 Dragon Utopias.
I take them, get joined units for 200 Zilots total; the hero spots an underground Cartographer — but I don't go straight to it, wanting to upgrade the newly joined troops for cheap.
This almost cost me the match — when I finally opened the underground, I see Tanta with a throng of Liches :eek:
Not far from my main base there are Shackles of War; I was planning to take them and finish it, especially since in the ramp with a copy of KV [КВ] mana was perfectly replenished by a well-leveled Charna. But the Necromancer, having eaten a bunch of tasty guards, portals into a rear swamp town and, judging by his treasury, is ramping up there without backup!
No time to take the Shackles; I even doubt I'll reach them, but I have to try anyway.
Frantically, the shortest route is calculated, and 4 Dimension Doors allow me to make it! :smile19:
Ciele [the opponent's hero], besides stats over 30, has an Alliance, Fanatics almost as numerous as the Liches, 100 Magic Elementals, a horde of Scorpicores and Crushers, over 20 Monarchs, and Arch-Pegasi as filler.

At the very end of the battle, when the surviving Blue shooters were standing under Blindness, and Cielka resurrected the troops battered by Meteor Shower, the game crashes. But apparently, the Necromancy amplifier remained on Tanta, and the opponent types GG.

A truly unexpected and dramatic outcome. Thanks to my opponent for the game! :)

Gave up on the ogre and level 2, let's go. On the first map, I killed a rampart guard and placed bears in the castle, scouted a couple more guards, and got ambushed by a tamika. 121 in Vidomna's tavern, and her first skill is diplomacy, then join and bones. Found control only on the third map. On map 213, I attacked a blue lord with a sneaky approach, and it ended in a loss! It didn't go well at all, I lost on the first map.
Thanks for the game!
It was a good game, thanks! I couldn't break the rules as usual :cool:

For me, the match turned out to be a game until the save point, and then something completely unclear happened after the save. All plans were forgotten, and it was impossible to even roughly remember who was supposed to go where – the heroes just moved around aimlessly. One of them left through the monolith exit, which decided the whole game. That's how, in 5 minutes, after vague recollections after a long pause, the entire game and the time spent on it were ruined. Thanks for the game. P.S. Something needs to be done about resuming and continuing games. Personally, I always end up at a disadvantage when the opponent appears after a couple of weeks (a month...). If one player initiates a save, the other should have the right to set deadlines (within a week) and, moreover, at a time that is convenient for them, not when the initiator can (wants) to. Because otherwise, with persuasion and good wishes, nothing can be achieved. Then all tournament brackets will be balanced. Stop being so lenient with deadlines. There are plenty of tournaments. If you don't meet the deadline in one, you're welcome to join another. If you don't play in a couple due to violating the deadline, you should be banned from participating in the next one. Vova, of course, understood the situation, and the opponent himself is against long delays. It's just that my game statistics after save points are very depressing – I keep losing, and that's because I completely forget the game.
