[HoMM3 on-line Tournaments] "Favorites to Battle"

dudge (Necropolis) (w) - Dirty Player (Inferno) Took a couple of restarts. At the beginning, I got a good starting location, which was a plus, and I had a decent amount of gold. In the first week, I built a castle with vampires. During that time, I used skeletons to reach the secondary resource. In the second week, I bought more vampires and headed to the dungeon. Then I started building a capital quickly... I ran into a blue player. I was one turn away from getting a tier 5 unit, but I didn't have enough movement points. Because of this, the gold-gathering unit unnecessarily tried to cut across a corner, but it wasn't possible. I lost 2 days. On day 311, I got more vampires, bought some nagas, and fully stocked up... I positioned myself one day's travel from the castle with 20 vampires, 9 liches, and 350 skeletons, with a hero with 6 death knights and 50 skeletons behind them. The opponent surrendered. I think the plan was to rely on Armageddon, but they didn't get the chance. Thanks for the game!
