As you wish
Thanks! I'm going to take a look... in general, based on what I've seen, many things surprised me, including the overall progression of the heroes... Okay, I'll finish watching and then I'll share my impressions ;)

Hmm... I watched it... clever! My respect! And still, the tactic in the last battle... Is there really enough mana? I thought there needed to be more... that's why I didn't take the sphere... but at the beginning, that's exactly what I wanted...

Final Battle:
Deployment: 72 snipers - angel - arch - arch - arch.
1. First turn - force field around the snipers, angel, and cart; 2 stacks of archs cover the angel, who then positions himself to be covered by the field. Then the field is placed every odd turn, the angel defends, and the snipers shoot.
2. Haste. Repeat on turns 16, 30.
4. Slayer. Repeat on turns 18, 32.
6. Accuracy. Repeat on turns 20, 34.
The duration of the battle depends on how often luck and morale trigger. In my case it was:
luck triggered on turns 12, 29, 30, 32, 38, and morale did not trigger at all. As a result, victory on turn 43 of the battle.

There is an opinion that completing Sir vbn's walkthrough will also be a great learning experience... We will be looking forward to it!
I wonder how much and in what ways it will differ from the 8-day one I had in mind.

Final Battle:
Setup: 72 snipers - angel - arch - arch - arch.
1. First turn - cast a force field around the snipers, the angel, and the cart; 2 stacks of archers cover the angel, who then positions himself to be protected by the field. Then, the field is cast every odd turn, the angel is protected, and the snipers shoot.
2. Haste. Repeat on turns 16, 30.
4. Assassin. Repeat on turns 18, 32.
6. Accuracy. Repeat on turns 20, 34.
The duration of the battle depends on how often luck and morale trigger. In my case:
luck triggered on turns 12, 29, 30, 32, 38, and morale didn't trigger at all. As a result, I won on turn 43.

You're awesome, dude!
P.S.: Huge thanks to VDV for organizing this tournament! Thanks to him, I became more confident in the next day! (In the game, although... and there too ;) )

By the way, either I'm having glitches, or my nickname is displayed in bold and italic! :smile20:

I wish the Wbn save would "come out" soon:smile12: :smile12: :smile12: :smile12: :smile12: :smile12:

The most important thing on this map is to SURVIVE the first "wave"... And then it's just a matter of technique... :smile47:

P.S. P.S.: Is it true that the map can be completed in 8 days?!!!!! THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTED ME AND THE CAVALIER! YOU HELPED US A LOT! (Of course, I don't know the Cavalier's opinion ;) :p ):smile12: :smile12: :smile12: :smile12:

So many interesting things... it's a pity there isn't time to discuss them right now... Just want to say thank you to everyone!!!

P.S. One small question for the organizer!
Why are there people (Richard I) in the table of preliminary results who didn't even register for the tournament?

Richard I registered for the tournament.

Richard I registered for the tournament.
And under what number?
Where is the official application?
Where is the post about sending the save file?
And most importantly, WHEN?

P.S. I remember a similar situation on the Second stage of the World Cup...

Remind me too... I'm actually curious, where exactly...
And with Richard, it's really unclear. I reviewed the entire thread and didn't find his application to join, nor is he on the list... In short, a request to the organizers to clarify the situation.
P.S. A post about sending the save file is not mandatory... Usually, this is done to get guarantees from the organizer that the save file has been received.

I understand that QWERTY, as a clan member, is probably aware of who from his clan participated in the tournament, but that's not enough! The rules are the same for everyone!

to Alan
I meant that at least in the post about submitting, it would be clear that the person registered and sent the save (ON TIME).
Because it's not always clear whether the save was sent on time, and that can lead to violations of several rules.
Of course, I'm not blaming anyone, but I'm sure that saves have been submitted late, sometimes by hours or even days.
Therefore, I suggest introducing a limit (in the form of a post from the organizer: "SAVE SUBMISSION IS CLOSED").
And make a post about submitting mandatory!

According to updated information, he experienced some kind of malfunction, which caused the message with the registration request not to be published on the forum. He was unaware of this. He completed the tournament on time and submitted the save file. If there are any doubts about the validity of the playthrough, we will resolve all issues (of course, only after all participants who placed higher than Richard I provide similar materials).

No! There is no need to shift the blame onto the fairness of the playthrough (for now).

He didn't know about it.
He completed the tournament on time and sent the save file.

There is no proof yet!

Proof of what? That the save file was submitted on time? This information can be obtained from the tournament organizer...

Well, at least he posted in our thread that he submitted an application and is playing... :smile32:
By the way, VDV_forever can easily verify this... :smile53:

Best regards.
