Today, registration for the "Wars of Mages 2" tournament opened, and players can play Hota by agreement. But I encountered a certain question. If you launch Hota with the XW rules patch 1.38, then when generating a random map, the "Battle of Mages" option is missing. Accordingly, I didn't understand why this option doesn't work on Hota? Or maybe I'm doing something wrong? And another question, does the "Battle of Mages" option disable the cloak in Hota, which blocks spells of levels 1-2? And if such an option doesn't exist yet and is planned, then you should not forget about banning the specified cloak.

The "Mage's Battle" option was created at the time exclusively for SoD.

The "Battle of Mages" option was created specifically for Shades of Darkness.
The first War of Mages tournament with this option started back in 2014, when HotA wasn't as popular.
Therefore, I don't understand why the Battle of Mages option hasn't been transferred to HotA now.
The absence of the "Battle of Mages" in the HotA game settings will not allow games to be played in the same format as in SoD.
Also, another question remains: is the addition of this option planned for HotA at all?

Of course not, what does HotA even have to do with this — it's absolutely not its format. This is an option of the ХВ rule.
Whether Wizard plans to adapt this option for HotA can be asked of him — we are not against it.

Even with the fly spell, you can't visit these objects (at the bottom).
Is it really impossible to fly into the stable or the monastery? This is the first time I've seen it, that you can't fly into an object... :eek:

They've implemented a new "approach" algorithm in the game so that you don't fly around the guards...

Please provide the generation description (so the random seed is visible).

And you will) In WoG there was an option - launch "as SoD", meaning with minimal differences from the original game.

Run it sometime in your spare time and you'll see that there is nothing of the sort in there.
And OH will most likely never be in SoD.

Um... no. I think this should be obvious already. The main concept of the project is a continuation of the original add-on line. Did you see an option in SoD to "make everything as in RoE"? And, although the previous point is sufficient, still: another core concept is gameplay uniformity. That's why we try to avoid any checkboxes altogether. Heterogeneity is introduced only by various map/template conditions, but certainly not by a gameplay checkbox.

Do you have a generator that can generate the exact same map based on the seed?
