Arena 4 Tournament
On 14th of April Hall of War (polish heroes league) is planning a small resurrection. Since the H6 multiplayer is a disaster right now we tend towards the best that Heroes V had to offer - battles and duels.
The tournament will be played on the latest version of the Arena map.
All the details about this map can be found here
Dowload Arena Map
In some points it's quite similar to the HC Duel Maps but it also offers a vast range of new possibilities.
At the moment we have about 15 participants but we wish to see more.
If any of you would like to take part in this competition please sign up. If there will be at least 5 persons i will give you all the details about the tournament ( regulations etc ). You don't have to create accounts on our site or even visit it. I will provide all the information and updates here in the master post.
When signing please give your msn account.
So, does anybody here still have the lust to hack and slash?

This takes me wayy back.. Alas I still serve in Cyprus so I will be unable to participate. For the time being I'm pushing for H6 changes, I would love to make an H6 version of the map but that would be pointless for the time being.

The whole H6 is pointless... Compared to the potential that H5 has it's a pile of snow. Doubt it will ever come even close to 50% of what Nival created. In battles no chance for that without initiative and proper skillwheel. There are some good points but the mechanics is worthless.
Shame you can't participate but you never where any good at this so it's not a big loss 
Good luck in Cyprus

well I still have some desire but alas can't commit as unsure of my time in coming months (unfair to hold things up if only available every 2nd weekend or something like it). Altho I don't mind playing some random casual ones.
Best of luck finding anyone from HC [too many worldwide strangely abandoned H5 when H6 was announced]. Perhaps Necro-Mutant might possibly...I was thinking of mentioning your league in this thread, but no answer from you from msn message I sent a month ago.
& also maybe can't join those HoW_Arena1, 2, 3 hamachi networks anymore?

I won't participate because I have already plans for next months. But I will be happy to watch all replays your league will share (and old replays as well if you have some links).

Sorry SKRPIMUS but i don't remember my password to log on msn. Need to work on it or create a new one, hence no response.
Of course you can mention our League there but i doubt if people who don't understand our language will find it easy. The networks on hamachi are gone but there will be new ones so i will provide them soon.
No problem zaio-baio. The hamachi has chat so it shouldn't hold anybody from getting in touch.

Last saturday, lepastur & I tested the map and we had a problem ---> simultaneous turns cut off when he was getting the free artifact near the aquamancer and I just entered the portal from the stat bonus to the choice of free artifact/9 spells 
The map is great in terms of strategy, but a bit confusing :S
Indeed, the Sacrificial altar is a great addition. Great job there

The turns end prematurely sometimes but it's very rare. And even if they do, it happens just before the players meet so it's really not o problem. If you save after teleporting near the castle ( before upgrading units and so on as it is in the map rules...) you will have simultaneous turns until the end in 95% of the cases.
Confusing? Well, maybe because of the amount of changes, tweaks and modifications. But in terms of gameplay it's the easiest i think. Lot of options but one at a time: visit this, go there, visit that, take that, choose that and so on It's just different than what you are all used to after hundreds of games on the Duel Map or HRTA.
Hope to see you joining the tournament. We need good players

The confusion is more about "what that those 2 stacks near the castle are for", "who, so many teleports" and such. A few Signposts with some information could help a lot
We (la Torre de Marfil) are organizing a small duel tournament for spanish players (same reason as yours, Heroes VI sucks) and I liked your map, but Lepas stated that it can be confusing for casual players (who may never played duels maps before), Elvin maps are simplier and so we are thinking on adapting one of his maps for our torney.

I wish I could participate, but University it's consuming a lot of time, I'm the main collaborator of la Torre de Marfil, I'm also adicted to StarCraft 2 events...too much time consuming
Good luck with yout tourney ^^

For those who'd like to play some games, here are recently created hamachi networks:
Arena4.0
Arena4.1
Arena4.2
Password 123 for all of them. Just use the hamachi chat to play with someone.
Sory but as i said at the beginning, at least 5 persons need to join to include you in this tournament. For now there are only 2. Tournament starts on 14th April so there is some time left. Try to convince some friends

Woow ... I just noticed this topic ... and I'd really like to join, though I haven't played in a very long while I hope I can play some good games.
Hope I am not too late for the registration
Ps: any mod for the map that I should know about ?

No it's not to late. I will include four of you. Soon i will make the draw and give the information. TowerLord you have the whole thread about the map modifications linked in the masterpost.
Seems that some idiot thought it would be fun to limit the hamachi networks to only 5 people, not 15 as it was in the past.
To avoid problems i created a bunch of networks for each group. Please don't connect to all of them. Jump from one to another and try to catch your rivals.
Group A
a) Arena4GrA
b) Arena4GrA1
c) Arena4GrA2
d) Arena4GrA3
e) Arena4GrA4
Group B
a) Arena4GrB
b) Arena4GrB1
c) Arena4GrB2
d) Arena4GrB3
e) Arena4GrB4
Group C
a) Arena4GrC
b) Arena4GrC1
c) Arena4GrC2
d) Arena4GrC3
e) Arena4GrC4
Password: 123 for all of them.

I get an error when trying to connect to hamachi : "The Hamachi server has denied your login request."
Or another version gives me: "Mediation server has rejected your login request."
It used to work last time I used it ... is GameRanger an option, I find it easier to use than hamachi ...?
LE: fixed hamachi, but suggested networks are either full or pretty empty

Don't know why it occurs but the fault may lay in your connection.
One more thing. Hamachi is known to deliver problems when using different version. Not all of them are compatible with each other.
We all in the League use probably the most stable one ( 1.0.1.5 ), which you can and should Download. Please use this version to avoid problems.
Yes i know those networks are full or empty but it's because that stupid limit to 5 persons per network ( with the old 15ppn there would be no problem at all). I told other players to jump from one to another.
GameRanger is an option of course and i also prefer it but the problem is that Polish Players need to get in touch with all of you (Foreign Players). The hamachi chat is ok for that.
Another option if you like ( the easiest i think but you have to do something) is that all four of you will instal a Miranda Communicator.
This program has GG protocols ( GG=Gadu-Gadu - polish communicator that our League uses). Install Miranda, press New Account ( green + sign in the bottom left corner ), enter name and choose GG protocol.
New window will open and you can create a new GG account ( give your password and email ). Put your status to online and then search and add to list numbers of your group rivals:
1. banshee - 6033362
2. darmir - 10323054
3. Unknown - 1691537
4. Maitrey - 9153493
5. albolabris - 13019717
6. EBOLA - 42247579
7. ikero - 1422923
8. Lee - 38880837
9. rashka - 19042172
10. GhosT - 9087856
11. Bania_87 - 3003012
12. Cepek - 7085805
13. michal13171 - 11762849
14. mateusz131711 - 13451449
15. Belan - 39525742
16. hankiel - 42439278
17. Qlczas - 2951064
18. Derum - 2748343
19. KILLER1990 - 40111761
20. metatron1983 - 3871782
21. hrabia bombel - 42603674
22. Orion - 11406407
23. Patryk21959b - 42607887
24. Trace98 - 36965178
25. Matrixceb - 38702234
26. Barabasz - 1281282
27. MyszaSnk - 13145523
About 5 minutes ago i checked if it works and it all works fine. Install Miranda, create GG account and it will all be much easier. If you have a contact with players the rest is easy.
Let me know if any problems occur. I can make some screenshots but Miranda is very intuitive.
