The tournament was a success. I hope Alan organizes a second one soon. But here's my opinion: a month is too long for such a tournament. It felt like everyone was playing for the first 2 days and the last 4 hours.

I'm happy with my results ;)

Well, we encountered a rather challenging lady :)
She's like Cinderella, appears at the tournament, defeats everyone, and then disappears. :)

Well, let's hope it doesn't disappear but stays with us for a long time 8)).

Regarding the month-long tournament, this was due to the New Year. The tournament started before it, and they decided not to rush with its completion... and still, some people didn't have enough time.

Regarding the new tournament, please post all your comments and suggestions in this thread: /topic/315/.

Thank you very much everyone for your feedback on the organization... And one question: should we upload the tournament map for download now (maybe someone will be interested)?

Yes, that’s interesting. My playthrough was probably the most idiotic (that’s why I scored so low and didn’t even get last place).
The tactic was – two loops (the first – collecting chests for money, building up the castle, taking a village, and returning to the home castle through zombies; the second – for boots, gaining experience through orcs, and returning through nomads) and free exploration – from the castle upwards, along the right edge, collecting everything possible, and recruiting the dwarves (they helped a lot). And the most interesting thing is – I didn’t encounter any computer-controlled heroes.

They can join strong troops: gargoyles to the left of the starting village; upgraded dwarves near the wood mine closer to the center of the map; wolves standing in the passage to the Barbarian zone closer to the center of the map; and some other troops, but I don't remember.
As far as I've seen, elves also join in the center – this is actually great, but you need to approach with a large army...

2. Walkthrough.
I placed the Castle on the fourth day, although with an ideal walkthrough, you can do this on the third.
I could never manage this :(
Qwerty

By the way, my hero finished without a spellbook:)))

By the way, a question: Has anyone tried leveling up a Necromancer? Since this project gives you magic to raise the dead... which is very good....
I only thought about this at the very end of the game, so there was no time to refine this option :(

I think leveling up a Necromancer is not a good idea.
In general, there's no point in leveling up anyone other than the starting hero. IMHO.
He already has expert logistics, and in a tournament, hero speed is even more important.
There is very little time allotted for leveling up. And there isn't even a starting castle!!!
Strong troops are practically not needed for the hero in such tournaments. If there was more time, then maybe you could think about a more suitable hero.

A few more words.
1. I would like to note the exceptionally high level of results achieved by the participants. And that's a good thing. By the way, our clan needs good players for the second game – we will provide methodological support.
2. I believe that on this map, it is possible to achieve 50,000 - 60,000 experience points. For example, by transferring the main hero from castle to castle...
3. Stay tuned for more analytical materials on the second game from Qwerty. The topic is tournament competition!

I agree that it can be improved, but doubling it is too much.
There is very little money here, and not enough time! And if we're talking about transferring, it means that at least 2 additional heroes must be fighting enemies in different directions, and they must also have an army!

Hello everyone.
Alan, thank you for the tournament, and Qwerty, congratulations on the victory.
I think 60,000 is unlikely, but 50,000 is quite achievable.
As usual, I didn't have enough time, but I managed to run it a couple of times, and almost woke up my wife with my shouts.
The first run was similar to Qwerty's, but I started by collecting money for the construction and with the entire army, although I understood that this slows things down. By the way, you can bypass the mercury deposit from above. I took advantage of this and got some fairies, and then went down to meet the other hero and back up (without boots, it's too slow).
The second run was after upgrading the dwarves, I

So, should we generally hope for a miracle? :D

Yes, the material will be available. I'm just very busy with work right now. Of course, this material will take into account the experience gained from this tournament!
