"only XL-3"
The winner of the tournament will receive a medal for their avatar and a ticket to the FB tournament :smile49:


I. Rules and Templates.

1. Game version. The tournament is held on version SoD 3.2(4.0) + HD mod version 4.1 (or the latest actual version) + HW_rulez 1.38 (when a new актуальный patch is released, this rule item is subject to change).
2. XL templates: 8mm6a,8хм12а, 6LM10a, 8xm8a, Spider. Template selection is standard draft; the red player starts with the first pick.
3. Castle selection: random pair + trade
The host generates a pair of random castles using a special button. Immediately after generation, each player can request a regeneration once for 500 coins as compensation to their opponent. If at least one castle repeats during regeneration, that same player may (but is not obligated to) request a free regeneration until a new pair of castles appears.
4. After trading for castles, there is a trade for color.
5. Total number of restarts (113), i.e., 111+111+111, 111+112, 113
6. Time limit per turn with chess timer - 21:00+08:00+01:15
7. Roads are medium and fast
8. The option to rebuild the Guild of Mages is enabled.
9. Timeframe for one game: 2 weeks

II. Regulations

Stage 1 group stage

Two players who score the most points advance from the group.
In case of an equal number of points, places are distributed according to additional indicators (in order of priority):
1. Berger coefficient.
2. Head-to-head result.
3. Points scored in the game "weigh" more than those in technical defeats.
4. If it is impossible to determine which players will advance to the playoffs based on previous indicators, a scheme of transition games will be offered to the players. At present, it is impossible to foresee all possible combinations of results. Therefore, the final scheme will be developed based on the situation that develops in the groups at the end of the stage.

Victory - 3 points; defeat - 0; draw - 1 point (counted at the 211+ stage at the discretion of the organizers)

The group stage ends on May 31, 2016. (no saves or replays will be accepted, results will be posted based on submitted tournament reports)

Stage 2 Olympic system

June 1-3, 2016, the playoff draw will take place.

Two players from each group are randomly assigned to the bracket, with 1st and 2nd places.
Olympic BO3.

III. Organizational issues

1. The tournament begins on February 19-26, 2016 (determination of the final regulations of the tournament, drawing of groups)
2. This is an official tournament
3. The tournament is held according to Rules for organizing, conducting, and participating in online HOMM3 tournaments
4. Tournament host - Scorpiona (ICQ 469326983), organizational issues - rebellious (ICQ 345870761).
5. Tournament judge – Dirty_Player (ICQ 408722873)
6. Organizers reserve the right to refuse participation in the tournament to a user without publicly explaining the reasons.
7. The winner of the tournament will receive a medal for their avatar and a ticket to the FB tournament :smile20:

The game turned out very favorably. I built Dimension Door in the guild on the first try, and Town Portal was upgraded immediately after (though for a long time none of the heroes had land). There was no early contact; I calmly gathered stats, archangels, ducks, and skeletons, and then crushed Marius in the village. Thanks for the game!
it was thx for the game

I decided to play, even though there were resets. I saw that I had a double and seized it, on the first turn with bear production in 2 castles. After that, it was just a matter of execution. I collected three Dragon Utopias. The only useful item was Speaker's Hat, but nothing more was needed for victory. I developed my home town and also took a Citadel. In the end, with 4 castles, I hoarded bears. I caught my opponent, seized almost all the castles, saw that he was out of mana, and then it was GG. Although my opponent's setup was very good.
Thanks for the game!

A painful defeat. Got unlucky with the number of golems from the Dragon Fly Hive (higher than the maximum possible), and then, with negative morale, for some reason I went inside the hive itself, where I remained...

I bought myself Necropolis and the red color a bit expensively for 6600 gold, against the blue Inferno. A somewhat tough start, few heroes compared to the opponent, but Clavius grabbed earth, and the task was to level it up as quickly as possible, since the cons at the brown player's respawn was revealed. On the second week, the opponent was already rushing to make contact with me, and I just barely managed to level up earth, accumulate some bones, and take the cons-three-piece with GS. Next, the opponent turned around and went about his own business... I headed to the central treasure zone (by the way, it was absolutely empty, just a box for all magic for 37 necro-horses, which I took without wisdom:( ) Then I took a Dragon Utopia-three-piece from right under the opponent's nose near their controlled necro-castle. This was a key moment in the game, as it gave КЗ and a teapot. Next, we both powered up... But I outpowered them:) In FB without a chance! My stats are higher, mana around 700, +3 speed 2300 gr. skeletons, ducks, angels, etc. GG! Thank you for the game!

I bought Necropolis and the red color for 6600 gold, against the blue Inferno. It was a somewhat difficult start, with fewer heroes compared to my opponent, but Clavius secured the land, and the task was to upgrade it as quickly as possible, as a potential conflict was spotted near the brown player's base. In the second week, the opponent was already eager to engage, and I managed to upgrade the land, accumulate bones, and acquire a Consul-tier unit with Great Scroll. After that, the opponent shifted focus and pursued other objectives... Meanwhile, I headed towards the central treasure (by the way, it was completely empty, except for a box containing all magic items for 37 Necropolis steeds, which I took without hesitation). Then, I snatched a Utopian-tier unit from under my opponent's nose, near their controlled Necropolis. This was a crucial moment in the game, as it gave me a Castle and a Teapot. After that, we both engaged in resource gathering... But I gathered more effectively. In the final battle, there was no chance for my opponent! My stats were higher, I had around 700 mana, +3 speed, 2300 gold, skeletons, ducks, angels, etc. GG! Thank you for the game!

The game started with a good resource node and a shield nearby, plus a good amount of gold, so I got into it. On turn 112, I noticed that the resource nodes were impenetrable in both directions. I could only claim them with a growth bonus. As described earlier, the opponent's Utopian-tier unit with a Castle and a Teapot was the deciding factor, and I didn't have an army to counter it at that moment. After that, I was running away from the opponent, and there was no time to recruit new units or summon demons.
I acquired 6 resource nodes, 5 of which were level 1 :smile39: and one was level 3.
Thank you for the game.

In three out of four games, Luna won. Moreover, in the last game, the respawn point was quite large. After saving the game, the opponent decided not to continue. Thanks for the game!

From the start, Luna came in, 3 Griffin Conservatories at the native respawn, which I never got to take since there were no low-level units, all were 2-4, and Luna ran straight ahead. On 121 the first Dragon Fly Hive, then "Dragon Scale Armor" and capture of the enemy Rampart village on 126. At home, I built nothing but gargoyles. On 127 I thought to check the opponent and if there was no quick contact, then return the troops and Luna for the Fire book and Griffin Conservatories, but then came the surrender. Thanks for the game.
P/S: As a suggestion, I wanted to write. As it turned out, the optimal play is on the 8mm6b template (/topic/6313/, post 102) as pink against red, in which case the opponents will be equidistant from each other.

I confirm.

The template is very tricky, not familiar. I sold the Tower as I have no experience yet on which template how much to pay. I got a respawn with 5 coins against Jebus's respawn and with the same content. I played poorly. But against Luna (an obvious cheat, on this respawn it's 200%) it didn't matter anyway. Behind the main, the opponent had a tight cluster of 5+1 Dragon Fly Hives.

Thanks for the game!

As for the color on 8m8a, let the judges decide. But Luna needs to be banned.

Right now, it's all fun and games from OFB, where you take whatever you want, up to random with trading. For those who didn't participate in WT games, it would be nice to have at least some kind of briefing.

I started leveling up the Donkey first, since there's easy earth and a few cons with oil at the start of the second. I captured the computer Tower, built the guild there, cast Town Portal once, and 5th level a couple of times—which gave flight and fly; at the start of the third, I took the first Dragon Utopia—there was КВ; on the artifacts market, I finished assembling AOTD; from the second Dragon Utopia, I also got КО and bracers, and with Full, own Desse and Donkey, it was almost done; on the fast roads, the scout spotted Valkyrie with a small army against 1k skeletons, 38 ducks, and 14 angels without outs.
Thank you for the game!

Captured two computer-controlled Castles in the first week, had around 300 units ready to crush any "tractor drivers," but the opponent surrendered. Thanks for the game!

In prison, I caught Vistan, took the Fortress of Companions, upgraded Kreg with artillery skills, picked up Titan refugees (121) and a golden bow from the caravans, and headed for the opponent's castle. At home, I built bears and took another hideout (121).
Thanks for the game.

The Treads were inappropriate, and the roads from the castle only confused me :D Thanks for the game! :D

My opponent restocked all his restart points, and I managed to hold my ground quite well: 2 clues and a constant presence on the respawn point. There are still a couple of hives in the neighboring zones. I took a village, and my troops captured an expert air unit and positioned it on the first clue point, but they were eventually defeated. Thanks for the game!

Everything is very bad...:(
