Please let me know if it have any errors (though it works well).
As u can see i changed crusaders to Gorynych.
Some questions:
1. How can i place Gorynych somewhere else? Since fight is provoked versus them they are always placed at hex no. 100)?
2. I want Gorynych to be a "boss" appearing on round 3 and not at the beginning of the battle, how to do it?
3. I also want to give him some abilities, like 3-head cerberus attack and strike and return along with 50% fire resist, i couldn't find it in ERM help.
3. For example command !!BM21:F16384; works as it should (it gives him fire immunity) but it's not shown in creature window when i right click on it, am i doing something wrong?
4. How can i change his name to something else? I'm pretty sure it must be dont with !!HE receiver but i don't know how.
Offtopic: Where are those txt files (like CREXPMOD.txt) with editing monster names,stats,abilities,cost etc? I know i used them before on previous pre-Era WoG versions but now i can't find them

It looks to me you just copy scripts from other maps and without even opening the erm help. For instance your battle obstacles are not coded properly (why don't you look at BF:O?), the creatures will be summoned on squares which may be occupied at that moment, and BR=1 means nothing.
I suggest taking a look at those maps, which handle a lot of customized battles:
The Dragon Slaughter
Chaser
The Empire of the world IV
Alexander the Great
Of course there are many others, but those will also give an almost complete list of special abilities.

1) Summon it as you do with others.
2) Read above. But you will have to get his stack number and modify its stats changed
3) This is attack around, but I think gorynych has it already. Strike and return, search Format SE2 (flagged abilities)
4) I am not sure we can modify a creature infos during a battle
5) For this you must change gorynych name before the battle. Look at UN:G1 receiver.

Well, if it was so easy to do, we would have thousand of modders around. Each of your questions implies lots of ramifications and checks, is not just one line script.
5 hours is nothing, I spent one year before coding my first battle.

Stack Setup in Round 0: Indeed, that does not work. But i tried to setup the stacks in BF trigger, and that worked. The only important thing is: Do never anything that visually outputs anything. No dialogue, no message, no animation. But it is possible to alter any stats. So f.ex. it is not possible to _cast_ spells during BF, but it is possible to _apply_ spells.
I think, it should be possible to summon stacks in BF trigger, too. War machines are kind of summoned stacks (the heroes ballista is not a "creature", but an artifact, and if you have it, a ballista "creature" is summoned during BF setup). Not tested this though.
Maybe i found a bug. I tried to alter the stats of the turrets. It worked that if i check the stats later in battle, or if i hover over a target (hero has artillery), it shows correctly what damage the turret is supposed to do. But it does not. Strange. For the ballista and other creatures it works perfectly.

How can I set my own creatures and opponents in a certain position on the battlefield. Here they appear in the default position but I have to alter that.
