Reports on online games and their confirmations (Spring 2008 season).

Dubrovin Pavel (Red, Fortress, Tazar, Tazar) def. Mizrael (Blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti), 2sm4d(3), 2.1.6. In the first week, he focused on his native secondary Castle:smile23:, building a Castle with Dryads at home, without Gorgons, and a secondary Castle with Dryads without any other units. He upgraded 3 Gnoll Huts, 1 Dryad Hut:smile23:, and acquired a Shield +3 to Defense. In the second week, he took a Hive with 8 Dryads, a Maximum Naga Bank, and a secondary Castle with Dragonflies. In the third week, he took a Consul-Minimal, a secondary Castle of Conjurations, and in the Treasury, he bought a Cloak +2 to Knowledge/Spell Power for 5-9 White Bears, and a Helmet +6 to everything for 50-99 Spawn of Evil:smile23:. He also took a Hive with 6 Dryads, a Consul-Double, and a Cloak of Negation:smile23:. He didn't find any Hydras. He upgraded the Dryads and placed Gorgons in both Castles. In the middle of the fourth week, he returned home, bought all the Dryads (46), 40+ Dragonflies, 9 Mighty Gorgons, 50+ Lizards, and 60 Gnolls. He added 3 Angels to his army, defeated 7 Rust Monsters first, and then 140+ Liches. On 1.4.6, he took the opponent's empty Castle, with Shakti resting there with 1 Trog, and then the opponent's secondary Castle (Tower). They played for another week, and then Shakti flew to his secondary Castle, Tazar was defeated, attacked, and killed. If Shakti had stayed with his army, Tazar would have lost, as Shakti's Light Bolt was taking 8 Dryads per round. And Tazar had no anti-magic (he didn't build above level 1). Thanks to Mikhail for the game!
