Summer-Autumn Seasons of 2014.


Rules. We are playing according to Rules for online games in Heroes III and the seasonal Ranked Tournament.
Difference: a system of subjective restarts is in effect: "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, that is, 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, by mutual agreement, you can play according to standard tournament rules "totaling 3 days".

Automatic report submission. Only reports written using the automatic report submission system will be counted towards the rating. To gain access to submitting reports, you must предварительно register for the tournament. Players who have played at least 5 matches with different opponents on the HW forum may participate in the tournament (it is necessary to provide links to detailed reports).
Before writing reports, it is mandatory to familiarize yourself with Rules for Writing Reports.
If there is an error when entering any parameter, you need to inform the tournament judges: Pit for LM - icq 471401475 or Dirty_Player - icq 408-722-873 for correction or cancellation.

Judges. If problems and disputes arise during the game, immediately contact the hosts and judges, as there are many of them, so with a high probability, someone will be online:
Pit for LM - icq 471401475;
Dirty_Player - icq 408-722-873;
Javdet - icq 275667709;
Gomunguls - icq 499978341;
Mizrael - icq 27384379.
If no one is available, calmly save the game and postpone it. After that, write private messages to the judges - 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 ; Mizrael ; Pit for LM
and state your problem.

Offtopic.
Here - only seasonal games - reports and discussion of those game situations that occurred in them.
It is forbidden to condemn players for:
- writing reports with deadlines from the first week (111, 112, 113...),
- refusing to provide autosaves and gum restarts,
- playing with weaker opponents, etc.
In this topic, such discussions will be off-topic and trolling and will be deleted without explanation.
========////////========

I decided to start registration for the ranked tournament earlier so that you immediately have the opportunity to write reports starting June 1st. I will activate applications on Sunday morning.

What's new?
The most important thing is that I want to conduct another experiment and this time combine 2 seasons into one - summer + autumn. I will summarize the results in 6 months. There will be one medal, not two, and with a different design; they promised me it would be very beautiful, and there will be a desire to fight for it.

Why? There are many reasons:
- any rating depends on quantity and quality. In our formula, the transition from quantity to quality begins approximately after one and a half months from the start, and the formula really starts working just towards the end of the season, when more than 1000 games have been played by the forum community. That's when we cut off the results and start all over again. As a reminder, at the beginning of the season everyone is given the same number of points - 1500. Look at the individual results of those players who have the highest "productivity" (more than 30 games) https://polly.phys.msu.ru/~shvets/HOMM3/winter2014/rating.html. At the beginning of the season, any player receives 14-16 points for all victories. By the end of the season, strong players receive 1-2 points for winning against outsiders. Obviously, for the correct operation of the formula, it is necessary to increase the number of games (i.e., the duration of the period), for example, on WCL the results are summed up once a year.
- due to the fact that now the seasonal rating strongly depends on the number of games, the tournament medal does not enjoy authority. I hope that the reward earned in six months will be more valuable, and the season will become more prestigious.
- many good players only play in tournaments and not very often, showing excellent results and defeating the strongest; these games, accumulated over a longer period, will have greater weight in the ranking points and allow such players to compete for high places.
- sufficient statistics on castles and templates are not collected in 3 months, but the results for half a year are interesting.
- formally, it is more convenient for players to register once for six months, and not twice, and wait for activation (I don't always react immediately to the application).

Let's try to increase the duration of our tournament and then analyze the results.

I will try to calculate the current rating (as in spring) 1-2 times a month, depending on player activity, so that you can track changes.

Next. Please pay attention to deadlines (they are already written in the spring season):
- there is 1 week to write a report on the game;
- there is also 1 week to confirm the report on the game;
- the deadline for submitting claims about the game is 1 week.


If we want the rating to be updated more often, then we must work together to properly format reports.
Running after those who do not confirm and urging them takes up a lot of time. Therefore, I will introduce sanctions. I will act simply: freeze the player's application, and those who do not confirm will not be able to post games.

So read what is written and, if you agree with the terms, leave an application.

Good luck!

I was trying to breed Adelaide, and I found out that the first fork with a Warlock is actually not 1, but 4 trees. After 100+ generations, I still couldn't find a suitable one, which is a bit sad. Then, still half-asleep, I accidentally deleted 2 heroes, used the auto-battle feature, and then, in a fight with Dryads, I misclicked and lost a whole stack of Gorgons. It's hard to fight with such clumsy hands... Thanks for your time.

I continued playing, accidentally lost 2 heroes, then I used the auto-battle feature, and in a fight with dendroids, I accidentally clicked on my combat stack of Gorgons – it's hard to fight with such clumsy hands.
Thanks for the game.

In the first week, I took a Devil's Lair and a Dungeon Cartographer, and I was heading towards the Book of Air, but my opponent didn't manage to do it.
Thanks for the game.

Buggy but very interesting generation — 4 Dragon Fly Hives for 30 Wyverns, 2 external dwellings of bears, 1 external dwelling of birds. After collecting all this by week 1, day 1,7, it was possible to head out, but I decided to drop by a Dragon Utopia to upgrade the Mikhailovs. The Dragon Utopia is a Tier 1 one, where two bears still get eaten anyway :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: . Why on earth do all the dragons crash into a stack of 9 bears when a live shooter is present? Oh well, there was barely enough money to upgrade 7 of them. On week 1, day 2,2 I hit ГО, on week 1, day 2,3 I eat the Dragon Utopia, get the Wings, and on the next turn I fly to another Dragon Utopia, with Shiva not far away for a speed boost. After equipping the Bracers, I attack, GG.

P.S. On week 1, day 1,4 there was an AotD from a respawn point. By the way, it was possible to even collect a second set, and a КШ was found in the center.

We played without rules, it wasn't easy, but it was interesting. The Necropolis units were mowing down the Haven units under the Vampire lords. However, the difficult terrain had its impact, and unfortunately, the Haven units were dying in the maximum-level Necropolis.

Thank you for the game!

Two hydra duels on week 1 and 3A from cons. Taz took Utopia on 123. The wings were there :). My opponent could have won the game on 124 if he had shackles. Taz took the middle town on 131. The opponent came next to the town, and we fought. He said GG. Thanks for the game!

I completely lost due to my own mistakes. From turn 125, there was no time left, and due to the time pressure, I managed to have Mephala replenish mana without the Air Book on turn 127. And the only hero who could have taken her out on the next turn was taken out with wings. As a result, -2 days of central town development.
Thanks for playing.

I spent 2 weeks clearing a large area, captured 6 dwellings of levels 3-6, by the second week I cleared a Griffin Conservatory +2 angels and a max Naga Bank, defeated a Pandora's Box (guard: 15 Nagas). Empty (after the game I checked GM4) — I rushed too early, not for the first time. I immediately moved to the opponent and scouted a Dragon Utopia, got 1 Black [Dragon] and received КВ. I caught up with the opponent at a garrison. Gunnar bought a spellbook as usual 1 day before Fireball. Thanks for the game

The first rest was spent on inconvenient units and Gurney without a ballista. The second generation finally produced a unit with a ballista :smile41:. In addition, there were two native heroes in the tavern, one of whom, namely Crag, we began to develop. He, as an exemplary son, trained, justifying the hopes placed in him, immediately grabbing a log, and cheerfully breaking through many units with the combined army. Only once did he let us down, receiving ballistics on level 9, but we forgot that misstep, as every parent forgives their children.

In the first battle, we broke through to the computer bot in the castle and saw firsthand the reason for his sad isolation. Hordes of invaders from the Royal Elves and Dendroids surrounded the castle and doomed its inhabitants to loneliness. We could not leave the suffering in trouble, and in the second, we freed him and gladly fulfilled his desire to join our kingdom, arranging a small tournament between our soldiers in honor of the holiday, where our steel, of course, turned out to be stronger.

While we were making our way along narrow paths to our gray brother, scouts at the Red Wood Observatory managed to reveal part of the kingdom of our sworn enemy. The news was not the best - we already knew from rumors from the tavern from passing merchants that the enemy was always ahead of us in terms of money - two more griffin dungeons were discovered on the enemy's territory. Stupid beasts do not always know where to establish their lair, and this time it served our enemy well. Now it was only a matter of time before the troops freed the angels.
Meanwhile, our scouts discovered a sulfur mine on the neighboring map, which created a short passage through the mountain range to the blue faction. As true barbarians, we were immediately struck by the idea of launching a blitzkrieg: warriors and Mighty Crag demanded it, however, my experienced intuition told me that we would not have time and would be met by angels, and even in a fortified castle. Gathering a small army, which I managed to assemble in two weeks without sufficient fortification of the castle and its walls, which was the reason for the small number of recruits, I went on a campaign for my only conservatory on the territory of the gray faction. The griffins did not cause much trouble to Crag, and he returned with 3 angels. By that time, the scouts from the Observatory reported that the blue faction had already freed its angels. Soon we were all convinced of this when we saw the enemy army in the discovered passage in the rocks. There were few chances to resist them, but we still set up an ambush behind the portal, so as not to let them to the city, and Crag swore that if he did not defeat the enemy, he would inflict a mortal wound on him and finish off the villain in the castle. I knew how quickly barbarians recover, and reinforcements were waiting for me at home, but there was not enough money for equipment. Something needs to be done with the treasurer, I think, taking advantage of the wartime, this lackey is robbing me.
However, the battle did not take place, the enemy ran along a false path. Taking advantage of the tactical moment, Crag broke into the enemy's rear and captured his castle, killing two necromancers along the way (I felt that he had become involved with evil, which made our company even more righteous). More than a hundred skeletons were killed, the great necromancer Nagash was defeated, who took away one of my angels and fled in disgrace, taking away another White-Winged angel. But the reward in the castle was recruits and another angel, who hid from recruitment in this unholy horde. Examining the enemy's possessions, I was amazed. The griffins even had 3 conservatories here, archers and griffins organized their camps near the castle, a rich stable was right at the gates of the castle, always offering fresh horses, and local merchants organized a bazaar nearby, offering everything at ridiculously low prices. The wealth of the region was immense.
But we did not come to enjoy the sights, but war filled our hearts and clenched cold steel in our fists. With even greater ferocity, we took up the military cause. Crag organized a campaign on the newly opened territories. In a couple of days, we managed to free up to 20 wyverns captured by dragonflies. We knew that the blue faction would return for their castle and were already preparing caravans to return to the siege in time. At the end of the third week of the war, Crag met the enemy army in the castle.
We will remember that glorious battle, and the names of the fallen brothers who gave us this sky and this land will forever ring in our hearts.
Thanks for the game.

On turn 112, I suffered a complete defeat against golems on a snowy map. I decided to continue. Tazar arrived, with a castle of level 1-2, 4-6 in the castle. I found a +3 sword and a +5 shield, took a level 1 consultant, then lost 5 efreets to genies, but got a +1 all-resistance artifact and 4 lives from the hive. I went to the opponent, but I was defeated with stats of 6, 15, 2, 3 without a spellbook. I killed 80 skeletons, 4 psychics, 10 storms, and paid a ransom. Then I farmed 29 demons and 2 pandoras for +5k gold. Tazar had stats of 9, 15, 3, 3 with a spellbook. The opponent attacked with implosion, and the expert resistance skill didn't work even once during the entire game (about 7-8 rounds).
I surrendered. Congratulations on the victory. Thank you for the game.

On turn 112, I suffered a complete defeat against golems on a snow map. I decided to continue. Then Tazar appeared, with a castle level of 1-2, 4-6 in the castle. I found a +3 sword and a +5 shield, took a level 1 consultant, and then lost 5 efreets to genies, but I got an artifact +1 all and 4 vipers from the Hive. I went to the opponent, but I was defeated with stats of 6 15 2 3 without a book. I killed about 80 skeletons, 4 psychs, 10 storms, and then paid a ransom. Then I farmed 29 demons and 2 Pandora units for +5k gold. Tazar had 9 15 3 3 with a book. The opponent attacked with Implosion, and the Expert Resistance skill didn't work even once during the entire game (about 7-8 rounds).
I surrendered. Congratulations on the victory. Thank you for the game.

The opponent's first appearance on turn 126 didn't allow me to take a hidden phoenix lair deep in the respawn area, to which a chain had already been built. The opponent attacked with a level 0 hero with 5 archers of 40 and a powerful stack of 180 skeletons, 3 phoenixes, and some storms. By the opponent's second appearance, I had managed to build a GM5 (I had scrolls of DD and Armageddon), and they gave Implosion. To speed up the process, I attacked with one of the necromancers with Expert Wisdom to reduce the efreet stack. A Moondog with 115 mana and Armageddon for 380 was ready to finish them off.
Thank you for the game.
PS The game duration is incorrect; it ended on turn 136.

Played well.
Two mistakes decided the outcome of the game.
1) The "Mamula" unit moved in the wrong direction, giving the opponent an advantage.
2) Since "Mamula" moved in another direction, the goblin-like units attacked the main base, and in the previous turn, instead of increasing the attack parameter of the "market cockroach," they should have stationed it at the market; as a result, it didn't have enough defense and couldn't deploy troops to the castle.
The second mistake was more critical.
Thank you for the game!
