You asked if FB-on is available... :smile17:
The participants in FB-8 are: Maretti, Aiwe, Stinger, Joker2k, KobRa_RR, God, Javdet, BISHOP, Sanin, and zloy_romantik.
I ask each of these players to confirm their participation within 3 days by clicking the "Register for Tournament" button, which Kostya will add to the thread soon.
I. Regulations and Deadlines
FB-9 will be held as a round-robin tournament, meaning that each participant must play against every other player, and the winner will be the one with the most points.
The tournament starts on September 21, 2015; there are 2 weeks per round. Players have 3 days to agree on a time to play. However, if 2 players cannot find a common time, EACH sends the organizer 3 options for when they are ready to play, but no less than 4 hours (if a player does not send their time, then the time sent by his opponent takes priority). If the times do not match at all, it is scheduled by the organizer - from Saturday night to Sunday (from 9 PM Moscow time and at least 4 hours).
To avoid conflict situations, all players must save game saves and logs of correspondence, based on which the organizer and judges can make a decision regarding the outcome.
Each round is played STRICTLY according to the results of the draw; playing earlier is prohibited due to the inadmissibility of the situation where someone has already played 8 matches, while another has only played 2. Reports about games submitted late will be canceled.
Deadlines for rounds will be observed VERY strictly; those who miss them will face severe penalties, regardless of authority.:smile29:

II. Rules and Templates.
1. Version for SoD 3.2 (4.0) + HD-mod with HW-Rules patch version 1.34 enabled; tents, forts, and cartographers – checked; second level building and obelisks – disabled. (If both parties wish, you can play on other rule versions)
The turn time for each template varies and may change by mutual agreement.
3. The template for the round is determined randomly from 9 templates: 2sm4d3, 8xm12a, skirmish (200%), 6lm10a, JC, 8mm6a, anarchy (random 200%), diamond, Mini nostalgia. Blue starts first (the player indicated in the draw as second).
By mutual agreement, it is allowed to play on any other template.
Cities are chosen using the standard randomizer.
4. Victory earns 3 points, a draw earns 1 point, and defeat earns 0 points.
5. Players receive numbers randomly during the draw.
6. If 2 or more players score the same number of points, the following indicators will be used to determine placement:
a) Berger coefficient
b) Head-to-head result

III. Organizational Issues
1. This is an official, regular tournament.
2. The tournament is held according to the Rules for organizing, conducting, and participating in tournaments.
3. Tournament organizer - zloy_romantik (296524052)
Tournament judges Pit for LM (471401475), Dirty_Player (ICQ 408722873).
4. For each played match, participants must submit a report and confirmation.
5. All games in the tournament go into 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, there is no need to duplicate reports in the season.
6. A player who does not finish the tournament and withdraws without a VERY valid reason loses the right to participate in the next OFB and beyond :)

1-BISHOP
2-KobRa_RR
3-Javdet
4-God

A very "fun" Jebus Cross
Thanks for the game.

Jebus Cross was indeed "fun"... I wasted all my respawns on not very playable layouts and ended up with a so-so hand again. At 114 on a no-road path I took a mini Griffin Conservatory, there's also a beehive not far along the road to the village, 4 piles of bones and 3 zombies, a pile of horses and liches, I took a chest for 5k experience, GOD knows where. Through a scout I saw a pocket with a Griffin Conservatory, a beehive, stables, and a Dragon Utopia, but I couldn't make it there in time. I managed to take a pile of horses, at home they're in the citadel, and I rushed to GOD, since it's unknown how long it would take to get there. I made it around 123 I think — there were 10-19 Arch Devils — nothing to be done, I attack. From the army: 1 Angel, 6 Dragons, 10 Greater Horses, about 400 Skeletons. It went okay, just a pity the Angel got eaten right away. Then I killed 50-99 Rampaging Horses for the beehive and a prison with an excellent Korback, and 50-99 Cows for the beehive, one max, the other at 6. Then +2 Speed for Genies. My part of the center is just a nightmare. Right away a fork to 2 neutral respawns — Dungeon mud and snow, further along the road into the desert there's an awkward block of 20-49 Ghosts, since I only have mana for 1 cast, and if I reveal myself, Claudius with terrifying stats but an unknown army (in the tavern his army was larger) could have crushed me. Nearby 50-99 Cyclops for +4 to all, a scroll and a beehive — naturally nothing to hit without crippling losses. So I break through to the mud, since it's the adjacent zone to mine, and I head home for the aforementioned Griffin Conservatory, beehive, 2 Dragon Utopias, hoping for control. The Dragon Utopias gave no control, only average stats, I ran to the center and killed the Cyclops with expert Tactics, and in the scroll was Dimension Door. I was already GM4, so I could almost immediately DD around. I break through the Ghosts, in the prison there's a decent hero who picks 4/4 chest and a Dragon Utopia with the Book of Air. Korback flies over the cliffs and spots a couple of beehives and КЗ. Gosh in the same turn takes the book and Town Portals home. The opponent takes the beehives over several turns, since Korback on 7 Liches wiped out all the weak heroes there, eventually claiming them. Then a long struggle, I eat the Dungeon respawn, break through to the snow. Soon Claudius shows up — the only decent thing is 50-99 Dragons. In the end, Clavius doesn't reach the village on the snow with Goshi by 1 movement point, on my turn I gather everything I can. I try to drain all the mana with weak heroes, but there's Mass Haste — useless, so I attack. He has no Tactics, I have expert, +2 Speed. Oil and the Dragons, which are Monarchs, are gone immediately. The opponent starts spreading Cacophony, but by round one, with Imps and 1.5 Skeletons, I managed to wash away all the Cacophony along with the remaining troops.

Thanks for the game!

Thanks for the game

I chose resets, the surface looked decent, but on 112 I found a dead-end block on the road (90 Ice Demons) in front of a Pandora's Box and a Vexation. Derty said that according to the rules this is not a block, so I had to play. On the first one, Efreets with Dogs in the Fort, I took external dwellings for Dogs and Gogs. On the respawn, there's also an external Efreet dwelling and two Dragon Utopias.
121: with a trade, I make a stack of 44 Magogs and break the Dwarf Cottage on 20, then I buy out everything else and break through the Ice Demons on 123. In the Pandora's Box - 10k gold. I entered the Underground along the road, and there was a dream road junction - one road leads to a village, the second to the exit from a one-way portal in the same zone. Right next to it, there's a portal to the green computer, but for some reason it's off-road. Nothing to demonize.
On the third, I built Griffin Conservatories 2+4+4+2, and Mary took the first Dragon Utopia on the respawn.
After that, I collected Dragon Utopias, on the fourth I got the Helm, on the sixth КЗ, and then the running around began, and demoning started going more or less. The opponent was showing much lower stats for a long time. Finally, Charna went on the attack and I attacked. There was an Elixir and a Sniper's Bow with Archery. I wanted to negotiate with 100 demons, 20 Efreets, 7 Archdevils, and a few Birds, leaving the opponent Skeletons, 20 Naga Queens, 40 Magi, and 40 Birds, but they also had the Shackles equipped. Thanks for the game!

On the way, I went down to the subway, and there was a dream road junction - one road leads to a village, and the other leads to the exit of a one-way street in the same area.

This dream turns into reality on map 6lm10a. 40% - after all, either a great optimist or someone unfamiliar with it chooses this map in a tournament):o

I didn't deserve the win, but the general swept everything to one side.
The start was great: Gundula, 2 Griffin Conservatories, a Dragon Fly Hive. I planned to assemble by week 2, day 2 and did. A miss and a loss of Deesa with 3 bears. With Gundula I picked up more Griffin Conservatories. Then a series of losses, including a magnificent Dragon Utopia near my home. I looted an Orb and some other junk.
But Deesa didn't leave for good; I switched heroes. With 2 angels I captured several computer towns, plus a couple more Dragon Utopias. In one of them was a Cape. From my home, I cast Town Portal on the second try and successfully flew to my opponent on a fast road. There was also a pair of Bracers for hire.
In short, I played unworthily of a Final Battle participant, but points don't smell:rolleyes:

Thanks for the game.

Didn't deserve the win, but the general threw everything one way.
The start was great: Gundula, 2 Griffin Conservatories, a Dragon Fly Hive. Planned to assemble and did assemble by month 2. Miss and a minus Deesa with 3 bears. Used Gundula to pick up the Conservatories. Then constant throw after throw, including a gorgeous Dragon Utopia right next to home. Got an orb and some other junk out of it.
But Deesa didn't leave for good; I reseated. With 2 angels, I took several computer towns, a couple more Utopias. In one of them, a Helm of the Alchemist. Home, on the 2nd attempt, Town Portal, and I successfully flew into the opponent on a speed roll. There were also bracers on the buy.
In short, played unworthily of a Final Battle participant, but points don't smell :rolleyes:

Thanks for the game.

On the first map, I picked an angel; on the second, my stats were quite good. I was looking for encounters, but it's a good thing I didn't find one – there was still a quiet "jebowжас" (likely referring to a difficult encounter) at level 116 with 3 dragons and 18 виверн (presumably meaning Wyverns)... Later, by some miracle, I captured Компофлакс (KompoFlax) on level 131, found a Dimension Door scroll, and cleared the map. It turned out to be almost a mirror-image rematch for the defeat from a year ago.
Thank you for the interesting game!

The game really turned out to be interesting. Unfortunately, I spent too long looking for control :smile05:. First, Town Portal, then Dimension Door.

I wanted to take the only explored Dragon Utopia on turn 121, but it was too far to run – I didn't believe they would give up control there and decided to kill a couple of comps. As a result, there was КЗ, which I took much later.

Thanks for the game!

Wasn't Shakti, with all his artifacts, killed on map 142 after being overwhelmed?

He wasn't killed; I had a magic advantage, and Cobra escaped.

I screwed up the tour schedule due to my fault - on 27.10.15 my computer broke down + a short business trip + I started celebrating my birthday on Friday - I picked up the computer on Monday. Huge RESPECT to Stinger for not demanding a tech win, although he had every right to do so.

On the black map, there was m200 and 8mm6a left. Since time was short (I promised romantik to play today, but Sting's family circumstances didn't allow him to play during the day; only at 8 PM did he have time), I chose skirmish - just the thing for one evening.

I didn't take my rests. Sting took 111 and we started playing.
In the wagon, a necro shuba and immediately a prisoner in the form of Moandor, a native in the tavern with 3 stacks, and Nelka with 3 stacks and 40 grems under the converter in a bright future that never came.
On week 1, birds in the fort, I expertised necro and raised them together with the starting ones to about 80 bones. Overnight at the stables. On day 121, upgraded the birds and took the gold mine for 10-19 archmages, then 80 rags for teleport. On the second week, no contact, took a barbarian village in an adjacent zone, carted everyone for an upgrade. Had about 120 gobs = nika and village. But they gradually melted away, and I also attacked 90 harpies without mana - minus 2 birds and 30 gobs. Had the stack been upgraded, it would have been even worse.
On day 125, I take another ramp. Nearby, a chest for 10-19 scorpions. On day 126, I grab it - in the chest, 35 gr. dwarves, while repelling the spirit of despair in 35 vampires - I knew it was a quest, so I took it again for a bright future, but traveling for this quest is quite far home over the stones. On his day 126, Labet from his necro village attacks 20-49 medusas, occupies my necromancer, and stays there overnight. Scout heroes cut down mine. I chain-teleport back - from the barbarian village through 4 heroes I stretch the army to dad, who attacks Labet in the necro through a well. The meat advantage is significant, my battle stats are better, magic is equal, but I have 270 bones and expert anti-magic, a shooter at 100, so the battle cannot be lost. GG.

Thanks for the game!
