It was a fun match. We initially decided to play a best-of-three, but then, during the match, we decided to play longer because the games were interesting. I'll elaborate on one of them.
A very rich start + dwelling of Vivs. I decided that this was a plus for Red. By the middle of the week, I found dwellings of Gnolls, Dryads, and another dwelling of Vivs deep in the resource area, and I took the dungeon, building a portal, which gave me a Viv archer. On day 117, I saw Greenie 1-5-6-10 in the tavern; for some reason, I thought he was a noob from the prison and wouldn't be ready for my rush into the zone, where I even had to run through the stables and use the boots from the castle to get there! As a result, on day 121, I positioned myself at a decent distance from his secondary town. Alkin 3-12-1-61 mana, 40 Golems, 20 Gnolls, 13 Vivs (4 not purchased), and 3 single-stack groups of Dryads. Of course, Ilya punished me for my one spell. He attacked with the same amount of mana, slightly more troops, including 4 Ifrits and 13 Basilisks, in addition to the Vivs, and 10 Dryads in one stack, although he had fewer than 30 Lizards. In short, I managed to leave 1 Ifrit, 7 Vivs, 12 Basilisks, and 20 Golems; I barely escaped, and I had 0 money... Ilya also managed to move Greenie to the fountain, which I accidentally ran past on week 1. What to do? I run on the remaining 32 mana to attack 9 Black Knights for the reward with the remaining 4 Vivs and 6 birds from the stronghold, which I built on week 1 in the stronghold, and I intend to run to the treasure, which is right next to the fountain, but on a different road from that stronghold. I barely manage to deal with the knights and wolves with the last bit of mana, and I get 4 Cyclops. On my turn, I see Greenie inexplicably breaking his army and apparently also running to that reward, although 200 mana should have been enough after the fountain for the entire treasure. In general, this mistake probably decided the outcome of the game. In the end, I got Logu on day 123 after 1 hive for 4 Vivs and 2nd-tier conscripts. By day 125, I was already on Ilya's side of the map, in front of the split leading to the secondary town on the other side of the map. My stats were already 10-20, with 40 powerful Vivs and 26 Cyclops; thanks to expert logistics, I quickly gathered all of this. As a result, on day 126, I take the secondary town with a hero, build a 4th-tier guild in the ramp, and before that, I exchanged resources for money to somehow survive... There was also a very cool battle of scouts on that road, where we clashed once on day 121. With a hero from the town, after learning Teleportation and Resurrection, I take the Inferno secondary town. On day 127, after gathering troops and hero stats, with the last of my Dryads, I reach the main town, where Greenie, apparently not expecting me to make it, was waiting... Ilya, of course, gave me a chance after I made myself vulnerable. Thanks for the match; it was great!
