I. Rules and Templates.

1. Game version. The tournament will be held on the SoD 3.2(4.0) + HD mod version 4.1 (or the latest available version) + HW_rulez 1.38 game versions (if a new, relevant patch is released, this rule must be amended).
2. XL templates: 8mm6a,8хм12а, 6LM10a, 8xm8a, Spider. Template selection follows standard practice; the red player starts with the black template set.
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 to be deducted from their opponent's account. 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 castles, players trade colors.
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. Library in "Tower" is allowed.
10. Deadline for completing a game is 2 weeks (clarification for those who need it: you must adhere to a playing schedule of 1 game every 2 weeks; if you start a game with an opponent, the deadline for this game is 2 weeks; if your opponent ignores or refuses to finish the game within the specified time without valid reasons, you have the right to request an ODD be assigned; in case of non-appearance by the opponent, they will receive a technical defeat).

2. Head-to-head result.
3. If it is impossible to determine the playoff qualifiers based on previous indicators, the players will be offered a scheme of transitional games.

Took the blue conf at 800; after the first rest, a Luna appeared (but all heroes without Air Magic), and on top of that, my native computer - decided to play. On respawn, bare minimum, very little gold, but by week 1 day 2 in the adjacent zone I spotted 2 Griffin Conservatories, 2 Dragon Fly Hives, and Boots. All the guards of the Dragon Fly Hives were burned by Luna perfectly; for the battle mage I chose Bron, who got Earth Magic and Offense on the first level. By the end of the first week, home had Forts and Water Elementals in double. On day 2 week 2, Luna burns a level 4 Naga Bank; day 2 week 3, the scout hero takes max Dragon Fly Hives; day 2 week 4, another level 2 Naga Bank and Dragon Fly Hives at 6; day 2 week 5, Bron took a level 3 Griffin Conservatory without issues, even without Oil, but on day 2 week 6, already with Oil, I failed at the max Griffin Conservatory and lost an Angel. Then I rushed to a nearby Super Treasure, but partial scouting didn't show any particular goodies there, though I grabbed decent scrolls (Armageddon and Dimension Door). Luna on the Angel ran along the only road to the center, ate a Corboaz there and a Chain +4. On day 2 week 7, Luna holed up in a central village to replenish mana and scouted a Griffin Conservatory, an external dwelling of Fire Elementals, and a fork in the road further ahead. On my week 3 day 1, Kyrre arrives with 1-4 Angels, 200-499 Skeletons, and 20-49 Grand Elves, and falls 2 tiles short of the Griffin Conservatory. Bron, at my native computer's respawn with the main army, takes a level 3 Dragon Utopia (Gladius, 3 All-Knowing, Hat +12); there, the scout hero takes a Cyclops Dwelling, and I build Mage Guild level 4 for Armageddon. I break the scroll and give 3+1 All-Knowing to Luna; she, with Armageddon and Fire Elementals recruited from the external dwelling, takes the level 3 Griffin Conservatory with a single Armageddon, and with 4 Angels and single-digit Fire Elementals, attacks Kyrre nearby. There, no Slow, no Haste, and it's easy to kill everything with Lightning Bolt from 16 Spell Power; even Armageddon wasn't needed. Day 3 week 2, I build the 5th Mage Guild, it gives me Dimension Door which I already have, and Bron rushes to the opponent. Due to a lack of prospects, the opponent surrenders.
Thanks for the game!

Thanks for the game.

Nubas. It was already won by the fourth week. I jumped to the opponent with Taz to a snowy respawn, where in the Tower he vainly tried to build control with superior stats and traded at a 1 to 2 ratio, leaving Kostya 30% of his army for baiting. All I had to do was stay and take the tower on the next turn, especially since I had the Cloak of Renunciation; there was nothing to fear. But I teleported home to collect Dragon Utopia, even though I already had full control and stats of 60. And then the advantage remained with me, as Taz's combat stats were 65 while Moner's were 40, and in supports I had another 2 logisticians among whom was Gunnar level 20, who could have passed for a folder, it was just safer with Taz. But on the last turn I simply failed, miscalculating the picks in zeitnot. I planned to take back 3 Castles in one turn but fell slightly short of the first one; I panicked, returned home with Taz and jumped into a treasure house with Gunnar unplanned—and doing all this in the last minute, I didn't bring most of my power with me. And as expected, Konstantin saw that treasure house and reached Guni with the bracers. I can also add that almost all artifacts were doubled, but naturally everything was on Gunnar; I just didn't have time to do anything anymore.

Thanks for the game!

The fast-paced game with quick paths ended quickly. On the respawn, I found a dwelling of medusas and a hat granting 5 knowledge points. Even though I had nothing in two adjacent areas while my opponent had one hive behind a pack of dragons due to a quest artifact, and considering that the opponent had a couple of constructs on the respawn and one for their companion, it didn't give them a chance because I was already in the center on turn 122, while they were on the respawn on turn 124, with no time to build up their forces to capture the constructs. I had 200 evil trolls and 30 medusas with 5 cats and eyes, ready to destroy everything in their path. In the center, where the opponent was defeated, it made my task easier.

Thank you for the game!

The fun eighth game with fast paths ended quickly. On the respawn, I found a dwelling of medusas and a hat with 5 knowledge points. And even though in two adjacent turns, I had nothing while my companion had 1 hive behind a pack of dragons due to a quest artifact, and the opponent had a couple of cons on the respawn and 1 for his companion, it didn't give him a chance simply because I was already in the center on turn 122, while he was on his respawn on turn 124, with no time to build up his forces to take the cons. I had 200 evil trolls and 30 medusas with 5 cats and eyes, ready to destroy everything in their path. In the center, where the opponent and the maxihive were, it made my task easier.

Thank you for the game!

Thank you for the game. I played at a fast pace and fought everywhere. In the end, the artifact stood in the center, near the hive, which I also didn't check quickly enough. I had a plan to take the hive and go home for the cons. It didn't work out.

Esteemed opponents from group 14! To avoid misunderstandings and attempts to contact me, I would like to inform you that I will be on a business trip until March 20th, inclusive. Upon my return, I guarantee that I will personally contact everyone and arrange a game at a time that is convenient for you. Thank you for your understanding!

Took the blue conflux for 800, after the first respawn the moon arrived (but all heroes without air elementals) and also the native computer - decided to play. On the respawn, resources are scarce, very little gold, but on 112 in the adjacent zone I spotted 2 Griffin Conservatories, 2 beehives and boots. All the guards of the beehives were burned by the moon perfectly, I chose Bron as the main fighter, who got Earth and Offense on the first level. By the end of the first week, homes at Fort and water elementals in the double. On 122, I burn a 4-stack of Naga Guards with the moon, on 123 I take max beehives with a weak hero, on 124 another Naga Guard 2-stack and a level 6 beehive, on 125 a level 3 Griffin Conservatory fell to Bron without issues even without Oil, but on 126 with Oil I failed the max Griffin Conservatory and lost an angel. Then I rushed to the super treasure nearby, but partial scouting didn't show any special goodies there, however I picked up some decent scrolls (Armageddon and Dimension Door). The moon with the angel ran along the only road to the center, ate a Corpse Cart there and Chain Mail +4. On 127, the moon settled in a village in the center to replenish mana and scouted a Griffin Conservatory and an external dwelling of Fire Elementals and a fork in the road ahead. On my 131, Kiryuha arrives with 1-4 angels, 200-499 skeletons and 20-49 Grand Elves and is 2 tiles short of the Griffin Conservatory. Bron on the respawn of my computer with the main army takes a level 3 Dragon Utopia (Gladius, 3 All, Cap +12), there the weak hero also takes a Cyclops dwelling and I finish building Mage Guild 4 for Armageddon. I cast the scroll and 3+1 All on the moon, she with Armageddon and Fire Elementals recruited from the external dwelling takes a level 3 Griffin Conservatory with one Armageddon and with 4 angels and single Fire Elementals attacks Kiryuha nearby. There was no Slow or Haste and I easily killed everything with Lightning Bolt from 16 spell power, didn't even need Armageddon. 132 I finish building the 5th Mage Guild, they give me an already known Dimension Door and Bron rushes to the opponent. Due to lack of prospects, the opponent surrenders.
Thanks for the game!

I've always been amazed by these reports, who are you writing for? Who reads this? Such a description as if you did something unusual that no one else can do.
You just open the save and if you want to write something you write: my altar spawned 7 angels and 20 dragons, opponent got 2 angels and 0 dragons.
Been there.

Why do you even play Heroes, and in general, why do you live with such an attitude towards everything? So what if you were born, studied, worked, and died? What's so special about that? Who needs it? It happened, and it will happen again.

And by the way, it's more interesting to read long, detailed reports than "7 angels and 20 ducks."

Necro arrived immediately; on the way there were stables and good roads, as well as a university where I bought Logosphere. The guild gave Town Portal right away; level 5 took two attempts—nonsense—but the very first Dragon Utopia gave a blue cap. I headed straight for the opponent and he surrendered.
Thanks for the game!
