As previously mentioned, the goal of HotA is to move away from all verbal restrictions; all functionality should be implemented programmatically. A significant portion of these restrictions has already been implemented, but some things remain ...

One such unresolved topic is Diplomacy. Many options have been proposed—from tuning numbers to radically changing the functionality. However, the problem with all such ideas is that their effect is difficult to evaluate mentally, as there are few clues in existing tournament experience.

Therefore, an idea arose to create such a clue—to hold a tournament with slightly curtailed Diplomacy. Rampart was chosen as the starting castle, as it has both a top diplomat and a strict examiner—a honored master of sports in athletics.

Rules:

1) Game version - HotA+HDmod+HWrulez (latest versions for all)

2) All games are played as Rampart

3) Diplomacy may be used to join troops of levels 1-5. This rule may change in either direction during the tournament; stay tuned for updates.

(!) in HW_Rulez, you must play without the "HW rules" checkbox checked (!)

4) Tournament format - Olympic bo3.

5) Templates:
- Jebus Cross
- Mini-Nostalgia
- Diamond
- 6lm10a
- Spider
- h3dm1
- mt-Diamond

In the first game, the player who is higher in rating chooses the color and template; the player who is lower in rating chooses the hero.

In the second game, it's the opposite. The template must be different.

In the third game (if necessary), the same-color player chooses a template from the 5 remaining templates. The same-color player starts if they are lower in rating. Color/hero is negotiated; the winner of the negotiation chooses either the color or the hero.

6) Games are played with simultaneous turns. By agreement, they can be played without them. Simultaneous turn deadlines:
- 7 days for Jebus Cross, h3dm1
- 5 days for Diamond, mt-Diamond, 6lm10a, Spider
- 12 days for Mini-Nostalgia

7) Restarts. For mirrored templates - 1 day, for others - 3 days.

8) Timer = 16+8+1 on all templates.

9) Red-rush is allowed on all tournament templates.

Other rules are standard.

Players have the right, by mutual agreement, to make any changes to the rules except for the choice of starting castles.

Miscellaneous:
- This is a fan tournament
- Tournament games go into the seasonal rating by default; they can be played without rating by mutual agreement
- The winner will be awarded something for their avatar (suggestions are welcome).

Registration lasts 2 weeks, the tournament starts on 11.11.2016 (immediately after the 2nd round of the swamp tournament ends)

Registration is closed.

35 people signed up, so there will be 3 qualification pairs for newcomers and a pair of "examiners":

Kir got diplomacy at level 2, experted it at level 4; early in the second game I killed the tree-dwellers and Pandora gave me crusaders, then I joined armies on my own plane, took those same stacks on the opponent's plane and entered the Dragon Utopia with max stats. They gave me a lollipop, 6ol, 4 all wings and a lollipop I think. Thanks for the game.
Thanks for the game.

Thanks for the game!

I won't post on the rating, jebus is a random thing. If someone has 50%+ wins on jebus, feel free to deduct 200 rating points from them, it's not skill.

I don't quite agree :smile48:. Jebus is a shortened version of all HL templates that fits into 9-12 moves on average, but there is also an element of luck, just like with other templates...
Thank you for your attention! :D

Okay. So, I'm just a Heroic Demigod who doesn't care about the rating;)

Game #2: Opponent picked the hero. Reached 123 with Expert Earth, Attack, Leadership, and Defense + Advanced Diplomacy. With a good army — 25 Griffins, 9 Angels, and decent stats of 10+. In the center, I collected a lot of good stuff: Wings, grabbed a couple more Hives, Griffin Conservatory level 3, scouted the КВ, picked up a couple of Pandora's Boxes, +4 and +3 all artifacts, and +2 Speed Cape. While clearing the center, I gradually moved toward the opponent. Opponent surrendered on 126! :D Didn't get to use diplomacy — had no money or time! :D

Game #1: I don't really remember the game anymore. Very good setup. Excellent development of the Kiryu. By turn 135, I had a decent army – 9 angels, which was my main force. I also collected some good items. I got Diplomacy at the end, but I didn't have a chance to use it. I arrived at the opponent's castle on week 3 to take it over and finish him off, but he holed up in the castle with a mage and an army that was almost equal to mine. (While I was heading towards him, he managed to clear out one of his treasure rooms). I retreated for one turn, and on my next turn, he had already messed something up and surrendered. Thanks for the game! :D

Game #2: opponent chose a hero. I came out on 123 with Expert Earth, Attack, Leadership and Defense + Advanced Diplomacy. With a good army - 25 creatures, 9 angels and decent stats 10+. In the center I picked up a lot of good stuff: wings, grabbed a couple more hives, a Griffin Conservatory level 3, revealed КВ, picked up a couple of Pandora's Boxes, +4 and +3 all artifacts and +2 cloak of speed. While clearing the center I slowly moved towards the opponent. Opponent conceded on 126! :D Didn't get to use diplomacy - had no money and no time! :D
Played like a noob :smile25: Didn't continue because I didn't prepare a hero in time for the second week, saw that the opponent was in the center and already on the way to kv.
