***Rules for online games in Heroes III and the seasonal Ranked Tournament***

Season "Spring 2014"

We are continuing our gradual transition to a new tournament system.
Only reports written in automatic mode in this thread will be counted for the season. A separate thread has been created for fun games. Results from it do not count towards the rating but are taken into account by the tournament organizers.
During the spring, I will make several significant changes to the rules of the seasonal tournament.

We are playing according to Version 3 of the Rules.

The difference that applies to the season:
Restarts.
For the seasonal tournament, there is a system of subjective restarts "totaling 2 days":

4.3. Subjective Restarts:
each player has the right to take a restart/restarts no later than the end of their turn on the corresponding day, i.e., start a new game with map regeneration. It is possible to take either 2 restarts on the first day of the game (111+111), or one restart on the second day (112).

Of course, if you both agree, you can play according to the standard tournament rules "totaling 3 days":

In case of problems and disputes during the game, immediately contact the referees, as there are many of them, so it is likely that someone will be online in ICQ:
Pit for LM - icq 471401475;
Dirty_Player - icq 408-722-873;
Javdet - icq 275667709;
Gomunguls - icq 499978341;
numOne - icq 305035002;
Mizrael - icq 27384379.

If no one is available, calmly save the game and postpone it. Then write a Private Message to the referees – in the upper right corner of any page of the forum there are words Private Messages, click on them, select the menu on the left – New Message, enter the names of the recipients:
Dirty_Player ; Javdet ; Gomunguls ; numOne ; Mizrael ; Pit for LM
and describe your problem.
Please resolve all disputes in this civilized manner, not by arguing on the forum.

Offtopic.
Here – only season games – reports and discussion of those game situations that occurred in them. Please refrain from philosophical reflections about the game and from discussing and condemning players regarding:
- writing reports with deadlines for the first week (111, 112, 113...),
- not giving auto or gum rests,
- playing with weaker opponents, etc.
All this is eternal and endless, but in this thread it will be off-topic and trolling and will be deleted without explanation.

Good luck to everyone!

The respawn point had everything I needed, but I couldn't reach my secondary objectives. The roads were mediocre, and as soon as I left, I encountered a Fortress, where I had no chance.
Thanks for the game.

On turn 111, I found a hat with +4 knowledge, a speed amulet, and Gunnar, who received a basic attack, all within one tile of the stables. Solmyr was nearby, and there was a well, along with a block-guard protecting Utopia and crates containing 50-99 Pegasus units. I planned to eliminate the Pegasus units with a chain attack and replenish my mana. However, I ultimately abandoned this plan.
On turn 112, I discovered a hidden stash of birds, and Solmyr was ready to attack the Pegasus units for the first time.
On turn 113, I saw a Creature of Zone (CZ) with 20-49 Basilisk units, and the plan to capture the crate from the Pegasus units was canceled.
On turn 114, I captured two secondary objectives from Inferno. There was a crate with 5000 experience points for 100+ Troglobites.
On turn 115, I checked the Basilisk units; there were indeed 49 of them, and I postponed the battle with them so that Solmyr could provide support.
On turn 117, I acquired the Book of Earth, and the fledgling units were in the fort, along with their hidden stash (as usual, I managed to lose one chick in the stash).
On turn 121, I found a shield with +5 defense and a Hive with 6 Vipers.
On turn 122, I found another Hive with 4 Vipers, gloves, and stopped in a tile before Utopia.
On turn 123, I found Utopia with Angel Wings and a Sphere that removes magic immunity. I also found a level 2 artifact and a second hidden stash of birds (it turned out there was a third one as well).
On turn 124, I found a Great Artifact (GA) with 50-99 Champion units. I left the Black Dragons for tomorrow, so that I wouldn't give my opponent an easy path. I also captured a crate with experience points for the Nagas, and Gunnar replenished his mana in the center.
On turn 125, Kragg, seeing no prospects, attacked: 10 birds, 10 Vipers, 2 Angels, 1 air unit, 22 Imps, and 4 Gog units against 3 Gray units, about 30 Wolves, and a few Hobgoblins.
Thanks for the game!

On respawn, we found three beehives, two Griffin Conservatories for 4 angels, two external hydra dwellings, and two cow dwellings. By the end of the week, I also claimed the teapot.
At home on the first week: 1234567, I didn't manage to paint one of the external hydra dwellings.
I came out with 123, having gathered everything available.
Then I devoured the center and moved toward the opponent, who was at their own respawn. The advantage in stats and magic decided the game.

Thanks for the game!

Confirmed,
I haven't played on a respawn like this in a long time - a true Jebus Cross =), tons of resources, 12 or 13 beehives, but the respawn is way too awkward and spans half the map, which didn't allow for an early exit, and one of the home dwellings was a total dud =(, in the end, magic and stats decided everything.
Thanks for the game.

The opponent dealt more damage, but I placed a Tower and used a chain spell to deal 480 damage, wiping out the entire enemy force. Thanks for the game.

I was planning to move out on 124, but it's exactly on this day that the opponent capitulates
Thanks for the game!

After 94 Sorceress without mass magic or even a simple haste, I entered the treasure room with 7 vivs)
Thanks for the game.

Played poorly. Losing the ballista set everything in motion. There were no good options either; on the way in one direction, there was a block of 10-19 cyclops, and in the other, it was just sand on a dirt road. Thanks for the game!

Played poorly. Lost the ballista, and everything went downhill from there. There were no good prospects either; on the way to one side, there was a block of 10-19 cyclops, and on the other side, it was a sandy road. Thanks for the game!

Played well, earned a lot of money, but the 5 morale in the dwarven battle on day 20 cost a lot... towards the end of the week, I leveled up with 100+ skeletons, got mass haste, and placed horses; that's where the surrender should have happened.
Thanks for the game!

Confirmed. I attacked the opponent in his castle – he had a couple of angels, 6 knights, 130 skeletons, and 13 grand mages.
I had an angel, 400+ skeletons, 10 nagas, gremlins, and mages.
But against a mass haste strategy, there's no stopping them – he ran away from me and decimated my forces with magic.
Thanks for the game!

Due to the grand creatures blocking the elevator, I had to stay at the spawn point for a while, which was fortunate because it was a large area, allowing me to regenerate. Kirr grabbed some earth, and there were also a Taz and a Necromancer. On turn 114, the opponent surrendered; something didn't go as planned.
Thank you for the game!

We quickly found each other, there was a dwelling of monks, we fought with weekly armies, and the archers defeated 127 skeletons.

The opponent restarted everything, there were a lot of paths, I decided to play, Gosha arrived, at level 115 there were 2 secondary heroes, the ranged units devoured the meat, the secondary heroes were on stones and on snow, I was counting on a long game, I took Necromancer experience instead of Earth for Gosha, at level 115 the opponent appeared on snow, I had to urgently build a chain and break the main hero, in the end, I messed up, I spent a turn on mana and didn't restore it, the final battle was 2 unicorns, 2 grand pegasus, 11 elves, 127 skeletons, 3 dendrites, against 35 grand archers, 4 monks, 2 cavalry, 24 spearmen... I went on the attack, cast slow on the cavalry, crashed the pegasus into the archers, while I was pulling up the skeletons, half of them were cut down...
Thank you for the game!

The beginning was difficult; I barely managed to place a wyvern and a castle with 5 heroes. There were two Lizardmen dwellings, but no Hive or Canned Goods, no Crypts or Treasure rooms. I only found a Canned Goods item with 1 Angel on the second week. I got lucky with the Slow spell, leveled up Tazaru's Earth skill, entered the rich lands, took two Hives, and with 21 wyverns and 60 gnomes, I captured Utopia on day 133. I had 5 wyverns left. I received the Earth and Fire books, boots with 15% resistance, and a cloak with 10% magic resistance. There was also an Orb of Magic Banishment and a Golden Bow nearby. I didn't take my 70 archers or the Angel to Utopia. It was late in the evening, so I showed the save to my opponent to convince him that he had no chance.

Confirmed. It was.
