Tournament "You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours"
Game 1: Izgoy767 blue (Castle, Caitlin) def. Dubrovin Pavel red (Rampart, Ivor)
On the first day, I broke through to the secondary Tower, albeit with heavy losses; a Dragon Utopia and a Treasury were revealed — all in snow and fire :o. I didn't take a restart at 111, thought everything was fine, but it turned out the respawn was very small :eek:, and the opponent's hero was running around on the left. I didn't even have money for horses in the first town. I took everything I could and went to war, but I got impatient — I didn't visit the well, my mana was low, and the opponent had a small army in the castle (by that time, I only had a Citadel with Monks built). So I didn't have enough strength to take the city :mad:. We kept grinding each other down for a long time — I with magic, and Pasha with his Elves. On day 141, Pasha attacked my capital and was defeated. After that, the opponent capitulated.
Game 2: Izgoy767 red (Rampart, Kyrre) def. Dubrovin Pavel blue (Castle, Valeska)
This game also turned out intense.
In the first town, I had Horses in the castle (though I hadn't found an ore mine on my respawn by then) + a secondary Necropolis. A Dragon Utopia was revealed, but behind green gates :mad:. I returned to town, took the army, and headed to the snow area. Along the way, I took another secondary town. By week 3, I hadn't built a single Magistrate, apparently :smile35: — I had an army but no money (((. I pushed further into the grass, and there I found Pasha's secondary, plus his hometown :eek: — looks like he had just captured it. I took it, and there I also found a green Keymaster. Then the red main hero showed up with a considerable army against my 14 Unicorns, about 30 Elves, and 30 Pegasi. I ran to the Dragon Utopia as fast as I could, passing troops along the chain. I took the Utopia, got a level 2 — it dropped a Hat of +4 Knowledge/Spell Power, an Air tome, and 2 parts of the Legion set. Then I looked up and saw my capital was gone :eek:. Pasha had 100+ Archers, 10+ Horses, Angels, and some other troops. With my army, it was useless to attack; I stood one turn away from the city without mana, afraid that Valeska would catch me right then — but that didn't happen. I decided to lay siege. It was around day 7 of week 4, but I didn't attack — I drank some water and flew to a Treasury, where I took 3 Pandora's Boxes — 10k experience and gold, and some magic I didn't need. The opponent was still sitting in my capital :eek:. I went to the snow area and bombed 2 Griffin Conservatories (level 3) and 1 single one. I captured the opponent's secondary (he had been sitting in my capital all this time), and then he rushed out toward me while I was in his secondary — but he didn't quite make it :) The next day, I flew out straight to his capital, and there the army hadn't been recruited yet :D. On day 225, Pavel capitulated.
Thank you to Pavel for the games and the experience!
