It's probably a good tool – a "Hero Finder."

If you need it, I think it's somewhere in this thread. It's useful for saving personal time so you don't have to spend several hours searching for a hero yourself.

I think you're not understanding something. To run a battle automatically, you first need to determine if it can actually be won and spend time on it. But here, I'm referring not to an automatic battle in the game, but to the automation program that vbn wrote. In general, I don't understand what you wrote here :(

I probably confused everyone!! because I'm a newbie!!! and I've never sold artifacts!!! lol!!! where are they sold? where are they bought? from artifact merchants? hmm.... I'm ashamed.

I looked at the map... (it has a nice surprise on it :) ) ... sign me up too... I'll be indulging in some "fun" :)

If someone has created a manual Walkthrough for this battle, then to avoid indulging in "fun" - use the vbn automation tool (by the way, I'm not averse to using artifacts in such cases, so as not to be indulging in "fun" :) So, yesterday I configured the vbn program (although he gave me some advice - set a significantly LARGE delay at the beginning - around 3000 ms), launched the battle, and went to sleep. In the morning, I woke up - the battle was won. Where's the "fun" here?
Understand a simple thing - if a battle is actually winnable!! but it takes several hours to complete - then it's not necessary to win it manually - that would be foolish - especially in such a battle, you have to perform monotonous actions for several thousand rounds. If someone is afraid that there will be comrades who will use these methods to break any battles that are actually impossible to win - then your fears are unfounded - such comrades will be caught by description, either by the players themselves or by the organizers.

For example, in the fortress where the Titans are. Build a shop there and experiment. But in a real game, in a tournament, always sell artifacts from the Hero and not from the backpack, so as not to mess up and accidentally use a bug, otherwise you'll be caught and..., well, you know what happens next :)

So, I don't understand! If I'm running with a scroll, and it's not in the backpack, can I sell it?

So, I don't understand! If I'm running with a scroll, and it's not in my backpack, can I still sell it?

I don't understand either... Please, be more specific! :cool:

I have the exact same situation with 5 archers,
it seems this is just how the map is.

I think the save will be accepted; this time, the rules don't say anything about a +5 monster increase.

Клан Homo homini

Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth...

Thanks for recording... and here's the funny part... I'm registered as number 33 again... it's like some kind of spell... I guess I'm just lucky with the number 33.

But I still don't understand... what does "Archer Week +5" have to do with it?

I don't understand anymore... Please, elaborate! :cool:

I haven't played Heroes of Might and Magic III for a long time, and I haven't encountered any scrolls in the current games. However, I understand what you're talking about: a scroll can only be sold from the backpack because if you equip it on a Hero, the scroll will disappear, and the spell will appear in the spellbook. Did I understand you correctly?

You understood perfectly correctly. If the scroll is on the hero, then you can sell it. But if it's in the backpack, you need to first free up space on the hero, then move the scroll(s) to the empty slots on the hero, and then you can sell it again!

And I don't understand anymore... Please, explain in more detail!

Okay, is it clear now? If not, tell me what exactly is unclear.

Come on, explain in more detail, how does it disappear and appear in the spellbook?
