Thanks for the game!
Confirmed.
Shakti with one pack of Troglodytes. Broke through some shooter guard to the surface>>loss of Troglodytes; above, 20-49 Earth Elementals. 10-19 Harpy Hags on an adjacent underground respawn. Found a bypass road through 50-99 Sprites, preferred them. But I left one striking stack of Troglodytes, and 91 Sprites in 7 packs hit them hard.
Lost Paradise (blue, Castle, Valeska, Valeska) def Pavel Dubrovin (red, Fortress, Tazar, Tazar), 2sm4d(3), 231.
External dwelling of horses near the castle, I play. The rest is not so good, no conflux, a couple of beehives, a Naga bank, a Medusa dwelling, and a crypt. One secondary is Rampart. There was a path off-road past Pegasi onto a mud respawn; judging by the number of Pavel's castles (4 by week 3), I was 99.99% sure it was an adjacent secondary, not a treasure zone, and I didn't even go; there aren't many other options anyway, heroes are frantically searching for something, but besides two poor respawns (mine and the elven one), there's nothing, not a single passage to the underground. Went into the teleport... All OK, it's a treasure zone. Library, +5 Attack, +4 Spell Power, nothing else, let's get out of here. Meanwhile, a scout hero was breaking blocks and reached an adjacent snow respawn off-road. There's a Grail +6 all and the edge of a Dragon Utopia — let's go there. Dragon Utopia is minimal, Grail, a couple of beehives. In the Dragon Utopia, they gave Wings and Sphere of Air. By then Pavel had already come visiting, I thought all OK, I'll get smashed in time, but Valeska without logistics only managed to fly into the home respawn and attack the archers — the army can be handed over, but escaping is impossible. Below there's another Dragon Utopia, and here I had doubts; everything above is untouched resources and the external skeleton dwelling is unpainted, what if it's still a treasure zone or Pavel didn't notice the Dragon Utopia? Couldn't make it to defense anyway and ran there. It probably showed that we'd been playing all night; I went there in vain — the Dragon Utopia was looted. That cost me growth. Valeska was playing with fire; I felt my superiority, but it was quickly melting. As luck would have it, there are no wells anywhere; I had to attack with 30+ mana. A tough battle. When about 30-40 Elves and Archers and about 20 Champions remained, Tazar, using Blindness, first killed the Archers, then the Champions. Ran away with one, leaving Tazar with about 7-10 Basilisks and Gorgons each. Bought out in Rampart, replenished mana, upgraded Centaurs with Dwarves, took 15 Fanatics, 15 Pits, 70 Dwarves, 130 Alabasters, 70 Centaurs, 24 Elves, and a Champion, and attacked again, again I didn't make it by 1 tile on day 7 and had to deal with my own growth on top of everything else. But there's a Bolt for 540, and it's no big deal. In battle, Pavel summoned Fire Elementals and started casting Armageddon. The battle situation is such that if the Dwarves resist even once out of three times, I survive. The Dwarves resisted twice. Valeska won.
Thanks for the game.
