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).

II. Regulations

Stage 1: Group Stage

The top 2 players from each group advance, having scored the most points.
In case of equal points, places are determined according to additional criteria (in order of priority):
1. Berger coefficient.
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. 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 after consideration by the organizers)

Group stage ends on May 30, 2017. (no saves or replays will be accepted; results will be posted based on submitted tournament reports).

A frustrating defeat. 146 demons, 930 skeletons, 27 wyverns, 18 pit lords, and 13 ifrits were killed, along with the angels during the rush. He had 20 Thunderbirds, 6 un-upgraded bears, and 780 skeletons. But, as usual, he had complete control. Thanks for the game!

The opponent had two rests, I had all three. On 111 I bought birds and fed them in the first fight against 27 orc chieftains that were blocking the road. In any other situation this would have been a rest, but not when Goshi is in the tavern with three stacks. On 112 I find a necro-coat in a wagon. Then a Griffin Conservatory level one. Also on the big respawn, a bunch of external dwellings (1 goblins, 2 wolves, 1 ogres, 1 birds, and 1 bears in the distance). The bears didn't spawn on the first, so I limited myself to 1-5 in the citadel. I ignored the bird and bear external dwellings. The passage to the computer was blocked by sultans guarding the entrance to the super treasure zone. So I went straight to the center. On 121 I took a Dragon Fly Hive and the central village. On 122 another two Dragon Fly Hives. Already 18 ducks. I tried the passages, artifact +3 morale +3 luck. On 125 I take Conservatory level three and have already entered the adjacent zone to the opponent. The opponent, seeing this, capitulates. There was also a barbarian computer with growth that wrecked his main, who just barely didn't make it to the town.
Thanks for the game!

I played the change with 3 clues on the respawn behind light guards, broke them and the 3rd con at 122 and managed to split the army, picking up an arch from refuge along the way) I collected a lot of Hives by the end of the second week, but didn't scout a single Dragon Utopia despite having 6 cities. The tower wasn't working, I only built DD on the 6th or 7th try and immediately jumped into a huge super-treasure, which greeted me with 5 Dragon Utopias (3 of them max) with a bunch of stats and even more Hives. I attacked the opponent's main with a superior army (2.2k bones, 150 monarchs, 10 angels against 30 ducks, 18 archs and castle meat) and stats.

We trashed everything possible. In the end, no army, no resources. The wood mine is who knows where, a ton of blocks and ranged guards. But there are two external dwellings of Gnolls and an external dwelling of cows, which defined the game. On turn 115, I nearly threw the game in that external dwelling (attacked the cows with 35 Gnolls, 10 Lizardmen, a Serpent Fly, two Wasps, and a Ballista), barely scraped by on the Gnolls. By the end of the week I got a bit of momentum and built 1-6 in the Citadel, with just enough left for some buying. On turn 121, I take a single Griffin Conservatory, a couple of turns later I capture the enemy ally's town, and his main hero with all his power kills himself on me in the Citadel. On turn 126, the opponent came to the center, where he falls just short of my central wood dwelling. I crash there with my main. The stat and army advantage, combined with two lucky rolls, decided it.
Thanks for the game!

Group 12. 4500 was paid for the Dungeon, and 400 for the color. Total: 4100 to me. Both agreed to the terms. In between, we managed to play until level 116 and meet. Restart after the meeting. As it turned out, the game generated a road bug in my favor. XL+U :smile02: Thanks for the game.

Group 12.
4500 paid for the dungeon, 400 for the color. Total 4100 to me.
Both agreed to the terms. In between, we managed to play a game up to level 116 and meet.
Restart after the meeting.
Turns out, the game generated a road bug in my favor. XL+U :smile02:
Thanks for the game.

Confirmed. One road leads to the neighboring zone, and from there, there's a one-way exit.
The opponent had a bugged path to my Inferno castle. While I was looking for the entrance and the second path, the opponent arrived at the same point with a superior army, having 5 castles against my one.
Thanks for the game.

A necro player showed up, decided not to take horses and go straight for angels, lots of foot guards + a home with earth magic and good treasure chests quickly leveled up Nimbus; took Conflux + Swamp + the necro opponent's main with an upgrade in 3 days. On day 125, I got a level 5 Guild of Mages which gave me Mirror Image, and on level 4, Meteor Shower + a Chalice. On day 126, I see that the opponent has taken Orange + killed two weaklings, moved in his direction; was 100 movement points short of his castle, had 6 fakes and 1 angel. On the next turn, the opponent attacks with 4 angels and single centaurs and dwarves; first gets hit by the Chalice, then by Meteor Shower. I trade 1 angel for 4 and buy peace. On day 131, I buy 3 angels and again am 1 movement point short of the opponent's castle. Then a surrender follows. Thanks for the game!

Thank you for the game.

I lost a game where the opponent had three Pandoras, each containing all the air, earth, and fifth-level creatures on a small area. After taking the first empty Pandora, I decided to focus on companions and level up Tazu's wisdom, but one of them was blocked by 50+ monks guarding a Pandora and a level-up tree, and the other caused chaos by killing all the creatures I was planning to demonize – my motivation completely disappeared. Thank you for the time!

Won on restarts: opponent was fighting the computer, while I had a good setup (3 Griffin Conservatories, 2 hives, Cyclops dwelling), except the road was a bit winding, because at 115 I hit the treasure zone guard. End result 117 — behemoths in the castle, at 115 I think I built 4 angels from the conservatory and a minimal hive and went to the blue player, who was doing badly.
Thanks for the game.
