Master of Magic (for Windows) Speedrun Contest

[Hadriex]

Oh man, I didn't think a turn 50 win would be possible, but looking at your charts you may have cracked it first try. Damn man. Going after nodes rather then cities seems to really be paying off.

If you nail it then rather then trying to reduce turn count we'll all be cruising for a turn 50 with the fastest time.

Well, it's not over yet, you never can tell what those myrran ne'er do wells are up to. Keep going!

Well, it was easier than i expected. Turn 50 win.

Looks like it took about 5 hours. That's a high bar, I'm not even sure I'll get a 50 turn win first try, but I'll give it my all.

I don't think allowing save\reload is a proper rule, you can for example 100% kill phoenixes/gorgons right from the start with a spearman (confusion) and always get the best reward possible from a node/lair. always win battles that you even have 5% to win. as if chances are always significantly on your favor and no chance to lose. I have a rule in my own games never to reload because in real life also you can never reload, if you are not cautious and have an accident you have to live with it. it taught me to be cautious in life.

to make it interesting I suggest:
no reload, Master difficulty, 13 wizards, Huge size, mixed continents, Fair climate, Magic I and no other modifications.
I will contribute 20$ via papal to the winner of this challenge. to ensure no reload each video segment should be minimum 1.5h and no video editing!
your luck should be as expected, for example if a spell has more or less 20% chance to work it should work more or less 20% of the times...

GMBarak Yeah the save was an oversight on my part. When I get off work tonight I'll make a little video showing your offer

[Slingers]

Henceforth, I, Slingers, claim the No.1 crown! Witness the Speedwalk Extraordinaire in the attached video! 

Less than 13 seconds I measured in today's second coffee break! ;p

[GMBarak]

I will increase the prize to 80$ sent by any mean comfortable to you deadline by 30 in November 2022 EOD

[Slingers]

Not for prizes from the noble Hadriex, but for the glory of the wolves and one more world record: 26 minutes in Category #2!
