We welcome everyone who wants to help achieve a common goal: improve the quality of gameplay and contribute to the development of the HD Mod. You can do this right now and here. All you need to do is register for the tournament. By doing so, you will not only help improve your favorite game but also have a chance to win a share of the prize pool. Good luck to all!

I. Registration, rules, and deadlines.

1. The tournament will be held using a Double Elimination system with a floating bracket (draw each round).
2. Tournament start date: October 1, 2014
3. Registration closes on September 28th at 9:00 PM Moscow time. Applications should be submitted in this thread. Registration is confirmed after transferring the tournament fee to the person responsible for the prize fund.
4. The tournament entry fee is $20 (37.5 rubles).
5. Each round lasts 3 weeks.
6. In the lower bracket of the tournament, there is a system for re-entering the tournament (once), which is possible until the final of the lower bracket. A player who loses a match in the losers' bracket can return to the tournament by paying a fee equal to N. (N = ($10 + Round Number * $5) / 2). For example, returning in the 3rd round of the losers' bracket will cost the player (10 + 3 * 5) / 2 = $12.5.
7. After submitting an application, you must transfer the tournament fee no later than September 27th to the person responsible for the prize fund.
8. Participation in the tournament or re-entry is only possible after payment has been made.
9. If a player is removed from the tournament for violating discipline, missing game deadlines, voluntarily withdrawing, or at the decision of the AC (Administration Committee), the tournament fee will not be refunded.
10. The draw will take place on the channel http://www.twitch.tv/2bishop


II. Rules and templates.

1. By default, games are played according to /topic/10593/. An exception to the rules: RedRush is allowed on XL+U templates.
2. By default, the game version is SoD 3.2 (4.0); WT (Warlords & Titans) can be used by mutual agreement.
SoD is played with the HWrulez patch (install it in settings). You can download it here: /topic/10609/. Except for the enabled option, other objects and level 2 monster building are not fixed.
3. The template for a round is determined randomly after the players choose their colors. The template changes after each restart of one of the players and is also determined randomly.
4. Colors are determined during the draw. Whoever is first in the pair plays red. Castle selection - standard pick.
5. Templates for the game:

000 = 2sm4d(3)
001 = Spider
011 = Mini Nostalgia
010 = 6LM10a
111 = 8MM6a
101 = 8xm12a
110 = diamond
100 = Jebus Cross


On all templates, by default, there is a chess timer; by mutual agreement, you can play with any timer.

For XL+U templates (8mm6a, 8xm12a, 6lm10a, Spider, Nostalgia) - 21m + 8m + 1m15s
For the Jebus Cross XL-U template - 24m + 8m30s + 1m30s
For Diamond, Mini-Nostalgia, Anarchy templates - 19m + 8m + 1m15s
For 2SM4d(3), balance, Panic templates - 16m + 6m30s + 1m


6. Templates are numbered in binary from 000 to 111 (i.e., a total of 8). Each time we create a game, we flip a coin three times. Let's say it comes up 100 – this corresponds, for example, to Jebus. We play Jebus. If there is a restart, then we flip the three coins again. It comes up 101 – this is, for example, 8xm12a. Every time the template is random.
7. The current list of templates will be known after the results of the vote among players are announced.
8. Restarts: A maximum of 3 days, or 113, or 112+111, or 111+111+111

III. Organizational issues.

1. The tournament is held according to the Rules for organizing, conducting, and participating in tournaments.

2. Tournament organizer: BISHOP – ICQ 201539747
Tournament judges: DirtyPlayer - ICQ 408722873
3. For each played match, participants must submit a report and confirmation.
4. Saves from all matches must be saved until the end of the tournament and submitted upon request by the tournament organizer or judge.
5. Please discuss controversial moments outside the forum. To resolve them, contact the organizer or judge via ICQ and provide save files, ICQ logs, and other necessary information.
6. Judicial decisions are made primarily based on the rules of the tournament. If the situation that arises is not regulated by the rules, then the judges will follow elementary logic and gaming ethics.
7. All games in the tournament count towards the seasonal rating. Reports and confirmations are written in this thread and will be copied into the "Reports of online games and their confirmations" thread. That is, you do not need to duplicate reports in the season ranking.
8. If you cannot connect with your opponent or they do not respond, please immediately notify the tournament organizer.

IV. Participants.

1. Experienced players from HW and other gaming resources are invited to participate in the tournament.
2. Beginners who have shown good results are allowed (applications will be considered individually).
3. Players who have just registered are not allowed in the tournament (exception - active players from other gaming resources; applications will be considered individually).
4. Players with a permanent ban are not allowed to participate in the tournament. If any player receives a permanent ban during the tournament, they will be disqualified, and their results will be annulled.
5. The organizers reserve the right to refuse participation in the tournament to a user without publicly explaining the reasons.

In the application for the tournament, you must indicate 5 templates that you do not want to play out of the listed 13, since there will be 8 templates participating in the randomization, as well as a convenient time to play.

V. Prizes.

The top 3 places will be awarded prizes in proportion:
1st place – 40% of the prize fund: 9200 rubles.
2nd place – 25% of the prize fund: 5700 rubles.
3rd place – 15% of the prize fund: 3500 rubles.
The winner of the tournament will receive an award under their avatar.
And we plan to donate 20% to support the development of the well-known HD Mod.

VI. Payment details.

Responsible for safeguarding the prize fund: Dirty Player
Several ways to transfer the tournament fee:
1) Transfer to VISA card
2) Transfer via WebMoney
3) Transfer via QIWI
4) Individually
To make a transfer, contact Dirty Player.
Also, no one forbids you from supporting the tournament morally and financially.

Got the Jebus setup twice in 7 generations, and was one step away from it twice more, but luckily dodged it.
Had a generous spawn - 3 stacks of cows, a stack of Wyverns and 2 stacks of flies + 4th follower at the spawn exit. Collected all the cow stacks and built 1-6 in the Citadel. Then started cutting in different directions, took a minimal Griffin Conservatory, picked up some towns, found a Fly scroll.
On month 1 day 32 with a scout hero with Mass Haste, was planning to take a Griffin Conservatory with 36 raw cows and a few flies. From a lift across rough terrain, Shakti appeared with 9 Manticores, 100 Troglodytes and 20 Eyes and attacked. I lost 7 cows, the opponent got a taste of it and bought back 2 cats plus some chaff. Next turn raised GM5. By the end of the week gathered some power and built Town Portal, but no Dragon Utopia in sight at all, even though I had more towns than heroes. Through a Papist Terek on 6 ducks I took a strategic Castle from the opponent.
Finally found a Dragon Utopia with junk and headed towards the opponent through the Castle. Circled there and found a Dragon Utopia with Dimension Door, then took 2 more Dragon Utopias, powered up, archy-smarchy and Hellight surrendered.
Thanks for the game.
Confirmed, probably the most money-strapped spawn of all the ones I've played, barely managed through Necro to take 4 Dragon Utopias eventually, got Dimension Door, but by then there was a total advantage, nothing else to comment on, thanks for the game.

Seeing the necromancer and the cloak after rests made me happy, but when I saw the distance to the secondary zones, it became very sad. It's a 5 6 day run via fast roads...
Cobra got an ideal distribution: a small respawn with a dragon external dwelling, they gave him the log and access to my secondary zone, near the treasure zone. At the start of the second week, I killed Craig on harpies and headed for the treasure zone, but the opponent with logs was already there. Here I made a key mistake: after breaking 28 gr cyclops for Pandora's box and a cloak 2/2, I decided not to take air due to expert wisdom and guessed wrong—in Pandora's box it was exp, not magic :mad: then I head in the direction of the same Pandora's box, shield, and Dragon Utopia, along the way taking ks for 90 vampire lords, but the opponent manages to be faster than me to take the shield and Pandora's box with 40 elves; he didn't enter the Dragon Utopia, but attacked me instead.

I have 13 grands, 380 skeletons, 38 kents, 1 1 uniques, 1 peg, 1 kent, 8 6 8 (16)
Shakti 8 13 5 (15), 2 dragons, 40 elves, 22 ducks, 130 gr troglodytes, 1 1 25 kents
The opponent casts mass shield and due to anti-morale loses a dragon; I lose about 50 skeletons and some small fry on both sides, and I buy my way out. But this battle could have had a different outcome if I had taken air, because against mass haste Cobra would have been the one buying his way out.
After that, I went to mow down skeletons in other places, while Cobra attended to his own business, but they gave me 1 mini Dragon Utopia, whereas there were 2 maxis and a pre-maxi. Mage Guild 5 gave nothing, and КВ for the archangels cost me about 200 skeletons per turn, but in the end, he had stats near 30 and full control. I wasn't given Earth Magic for the whole game, so I had to take Water in the penultimate slot, and when I realized that an army couldn't be assembled against his ducks, I decided not to continue.
Thanks for the game.

My opponent decided that winning the tournament through the upper bracket was too easy and predictable. So, he decided to let me pass, and I can only wish him good luck. :)

The roads were a letdown—the one-way exit and the dead-end village in the swamp—but the cons were plentiful, and Dragon Utopia areas were found too, although I had to travel far. At first, the Dragon Utopia areas dropped junk: 2 Captain's Hats, 2 Boots of Levitation, 2 +10 Caps, a Black Orb, etc., but eventually, both КЗ and КВ were found. Throughout the game, my stats lagged far behind Gurni's; only one turn before the finale, in the ninth Dragon Utopia area, I got a gladius, and in the tenth, +6 all. Power wasn't an issue.
Thanks for the game!

The roads were a bit disappointing—the one-way exit and the dead-end village in the swamp—but the cons were provided reasonably, and Dragon Utopias were found too, although I had to travel far. At first, the Dragon Utopias dropped junk: 2 Captain's Hats, 2 Boots of Levitation, 2 +10 Caps, a Black Orb, etc., but eventually КЗ and КВ were found. Throughout the game, I lagged far behind Gurni in stats; only one turn before the final boss, the ninth Dragon Utopia gave me a gladius, and the tenth gave +6 all, so there were no problems with power.
Thanks for the game!

Confirmed. Everything was pretty good, Gurni played vigorously—caught him 3 times in refuges! (regarding archers), but only one Dragon Utopia per game, Town Portal was only given in the 4th guild, and Dimension Door wasn't provided; as a result, I lost the late game. Thanks for the game!

...I caught it 3 times in the refuges! per arch.

undoubtedly, it's impressive! :smile54:
and the fact that the 1st arch was purely random is just an obvious banality)))
but what about the other 2 – could this be a bug in the HD version's adjustment of the refuge's contents from copies? or were all the arches from different refuges? :eek:

They were from 2 Refuges. 1 in the 2nd week and 1 in the 3rd. I also had the thought that it might be a bug, but after that, different random creatures always appeared. So, no luck, only skill :cool:

We chose all the rest factions and ended up with another Castle-Magic (CM) combination (just like in the first attempt). I made a couple of serious mistakes, and even AOTD couldn't help me against a damn tough Thazar in the final. Thanks for the game.
