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":

thanks for the game!
the path to brown didn't open — because of that I made a mistake: thought I entered zone 9 through zone 21, but ended up in zone 22, the lone crystal mine (couldn't see the others) and the crossroads guard helped with that misconception))
and right on turn 122, my opponent kills pink and nightcaps in his Castle
I only realized my mistake when Kyrre without a spell book and only with growth ears flagged blue banners on the grass
I turn Kyrre around, but the Castle was nearby and the finale was a formality, I didn't even bother fleeing, because I was quickly cornered in a dead end

GG, thanks for the games, good luck in the final stage))

I bought Kirr for 2k (I think). We played for quite a while, but my opponent never made it to the central treasure, which turned out to be surprisingly large. Here's a screenshot of the Fortress Battle (under Castle). Thanks for the game!

Bought Kyrre for 2k (I think). We ran around for quite a while, the opponent never went into the central treasure zone, which turned out to be unusually huge.
Here's a screenshot of FB (under KSh)


Thanks for the game!
As usual in the final game, after the elf outpost, there's a huge respawn with GO in the form of Arch Devils and ridiculously long roads to the computers, saw the first Dragon Fly Hive at the end of the second week, it was a pain to get to, and here the opponent started demonizing from the first week.
Anyway, GG, and demonizing needs to be nerfed, necromancy was nerfed by half, but demonizing is untouched — strange stuff.
Thanks for the game.
P.S. for reference, in this tournament I won all games except 1 playing with Kyrre at the start, so there's your imbalance, nerf logistics heroes first.

I agree, I suggest giving all logistics players an eagle eye at the start :)
