TOURNAMENT #2 CLASSIC

Rules
1. Game according to standard ХВ rules
2. SoD version 3.2 (4.0) + HD mod + HW_rules_mod patch. The latest stable version is used. By mutual agreement, players can play on any other version, but in this case, they agree on the rules and settings themselves.
3. Bidding for the choice of City and Color. Clarifications:
- For mirror templates, city #1 is chosen.
- A pair of identical castles are played by default.
- When playing with the same cities (including on mirror templates), there is a bidding war for the right to choose a hero. Players take turns (first, the one who won the bid for color, then his opponent) crossing out one undesirable hero from the complete list; then, the players inform each other about how much gold they are willing to transfer to their opponent for the right to make the first choice from the remaining heroes.
- It is possible to regenerate a pair once for 500 coins at the request of either player. This is done immediately after the pair appears, before the start of the auction. If the same pair appears later, it will be automatically regenerated. If a pair appears with one of the cities that were involved in the regeneration, no further regeneration takes place.
4. Chess timer, as specified in ХВ rules.
5. Restarts: 113 on all regular templates and 111 on mirror templates.
6. Mage Guild rebuilding is enabled on all templates except skirmish.
7. Templates. Let there be many. Minor adjustments are possible.
2SM4d(3), Balance (L-U, 130%), skirmish (200%), Anarchy (200%) Jebus cross, Mini-Nostalgia, Diamond, 8mm6a, 6LM10a, 8xm12a, Spider, mir_diamond and mir_h3dm1.
Mini-Nostalgia. The participant who receives the blue color as a result of the bidding chooses the computer's secondary castles.
Diamond. The participant who receives the red color as a result of the bidding removes the extra (ninth) castle. If the castles are identical, then first the red player removes one castle, then the blue player removes the second.
Anarchy. Difficulty 200%. All random. Timer 16:00+06:30+01:00. Color for the first generation is chosen by flipping a coin; in case of subjective restart, the color changes. Played without the HW_rulez checkbox.
Skirmish. Difficulty 200%. All random, color for the first generation is chosen by flipping a coin; in case of subjective restart, the color changes. Played without Mage Guild rebuilding.
h3dm1. Timer 21:00+08:00+01:15 (as for XL+U). It is forbidden to pass through shifted guard posts.

On turn 123, Kostya made a bad move by attacking Jigit with 15 spell power without having enough mana.
After that, there was a battle of mages, and he conceded due to a lack of prospects.

On turn 123, it was decided that Kostya made a blunder by attacking Jigit with 15 speed without mana.
Then there was a war of mages and a surrender due to the lack of prospects.

He played brilliantly in the first week and had every right to rush. But on turn 121, he made a rather unusual mistake, which ultimately led to a loss. Annabelle started from the stables, on her way to the teleport she cleared a zephyr and a scroll in 47 moves, ending her turn one step away from the teleport, where Sayra with experience, diplomacy, logistics, air, and 30+ mana was already waiting to attack the opponent from turn 117. So, I decided to take that scroll with Annabelle, which turned out to be complete nonsense (counterstrike). The next day, 122, because of this move, Annabelle was exactly 1 step short of finishing her turn at the well near the strategic outer tavern on Ivan's plane. Instead of a rush, it turned into a blunder. It's a pity, it's annoying, but okay. Thank you for the game!

Gave up the elf stronghold and endured terrible roads; thankfully, I wasn't the only one. The moon, which appeared on turn 115 and immediately burned down the base with a basic fire spell dealing 17 grand damage, helped a lot (skill). Otherwise, I would have died in poverty. In the end, a lucky encounter on the second map with the opponent's army on a fort resulted in a barrage of 40 grand damage under the golden bow on the moon with an arrow attack of 150, I think. Then, I took over the cities, chased him through a one-way passage, and finally, a formal final battle without mana for the opponent, with another barrage. Thanks for the game.

We picked all restarts and played for luck. I got a good draw: 4 Dragon Fly Hives, 2 Griffin Conservatories, an external dwelling of birds, and nice artifacts. Not everything I wanted worked out, so I decided to go out on day 121 without mass Slow via efreets. But surprisingly, behind the efreets there were two more ГО that needed to be cleared from efreets, so I had to skip a day immediately and wait for Labetha with mass Slow. The center turned out to be quite poor. My opponent wasn't in a hurry to enter the center, but he revealed strong stats and Archangels, so I didn't dare to go collect goodies near the opponent's ГО. Instead, I went to a neutral respawn to take a Dragon Utopia. I built GM5, which gave me Dimension Door (cool). I took the max Dragon Utopia — it gave the Speaker's Hat, Admiral's Hat, a Chalice, and something else. On day 127, the blue player finally entered the center, but there were only 1-4 (1) Archangels. I couldn't attack in time, realizing reinforcements would arrive. I decided to take a Dragon Utopia at a respawn. The opponent took a Dragon Utopia (which turned out to have КЗ) near a neighboring ГО and went to a neighboring respawn. I took a small Dragon Utopia at home — it had the Book of Air. I collected the Shackles and the Cloak of Undead King. Ready for battle, but I needed to catch up))) The third week saw a war of scout heroes with castle captures, which I lost. They practically pushed me out of the center. On the third try, I finally got Town Portal at home and bought off the blue scout. Realizing I was losing map control, I went to take the opponent's main to upgrade Angels there. Artyom realized that giving up the castle meant switching to defense. I was half a step short of attacking on day 137, but luckily I was red and had the buffer of day 141. During that time, the blue player brought 30 Ogres from a Pandora's Box, which helped a bit in the final battle. A very ambiguous final fight (see the screenshot), where there were mutual mistakes and inaccuracies. In the end, I narrowly managed to win the final battle thanks to Storm Elementals. Perhaps Artyom should have surrendered the castle and continued the chase with an advantage in map control, but Tazar with Archangels and growth would have looked terrifying; maybe he could have caught the blue army with the Shackles on week 4, but that's not certain. Thanks for the game.

We chose all restarts, ended up playing for luck. I got a good draw: 4 Dragon Fly Hives, 2 Griffin Conservatories, an external dwelling of birds, nice artifacts. Not everything I wanted worked out, so I decided to come out on 121 without Slow via Efreeti. But surprisingly, behind the Efreeti there turned out to be two more ГО that had to be fought through Efreeti, so I had to skip the day immediately and wait for Labeta with Mass Slow. The center turned out to be quite poor. The opponent was in no hurry to the center, but was showing strong stats and Archangels, so I didn't dare go grab the goodies near the opponent's ГО, but instead headed to a neutral respawn to take a Dragon Utopia. I build GM5, it gives Dimension Door (cool). I take a max Dragon Utopia — it gives Speaker's Hat, Admiral's Hat, Chalice of Wishes, and something else. On 127, the blue player finally comes to the center, but there are only 1-4 (1) Archangels. I don't have time to attack, I realize reinforcements are coming. I decide to take the Dragon Utopia at the respawn. The opponent takes a Dragon Utopia (as it turned out, with КЗ) near a neighboring ГО and heads to the neighboring respawn. I take a small Dragon Utopia at home — there's the Tome of Air Magic. I pick up the Shackles of War and the Cloak of the Undead King. I'm ready for the fight, but I need to catch up somehow))) The third week is a war of scout heroes with castle flipping, which I'm losing. I'm practically pushed out of the center. On the third try, I finally get Town Portal at home and buy off the blue player's scout hero. Realizing I'm losing map control, I go to take the opponent's main to upgrade Angels there. Artyom understands that giving up the castle means moving to defense. I'm half a step short of attacking on 137, but it's good that I'm red and have a buffer in the form of 141; during this time, the blue player brings in 30 Ogres from a Pandora's Box, which helped a bit in the final battle.

Thanks for the game.

In the final battle, I should have cast the spell wave in round 1 to kill the Storm Elementals; before the final battle, I should have equipped +10 spell power, since I saw the opponent's Storm Elementals and could have guessed it would be a magic fight; and earlier — I shouldn't have taken Dragon Utopias at the respawn with scout heroes and shouldn't have thrown away all my power except for 1 Archangel. Even though I took 5 Dragon Utopias at the respawn, there was no control anywhere.
Thanks for the game and good luck further!

I gave up the elven stronghold and endured terrible roads; thankfully, I wasn't the only one. The moon, which appeared on turn 115 and immediately burned with a basic fire spell dealing 17 damage, greatly helped me. Otherwise, I would have died penniless. In the end, I had a lucky encounter on the second map with the opponent's army on a forest map. There was a shootout with 40 damage under the golden bow on the moon, with an arrow attack of 150, I think. Then I took over cities, chased through a one-way passage, and finally, I formally defeated the opponent without mana, with another shootout. Thank you for the game.

Yes, two dream roads worth 3-4 each and clumsy hands did their job. Thank you for the game.
