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

Dubrovin Pavel (Red, Tower, Niela, Niela) def Felix (Blue, Stronghold, Crag Hack, Crag Hack), 2sm4d(3), 2.1.7.

After all his restarts, the game began.

At the start, 80 Gremlins appeared. On the first turn, I revealed the map and saw a secondary town on the dirt road. I rushed towards it. The guard consisted of 10-19 Basilisks, but by the time I reached them, after breaking through the defenses, only about 9 Gargoyles remained, and the Gremlins were all intact. I waited for the mages to arrive and then attacked.

In the first week, I captured the secondary town. In my main town, I built mages in the Stronghold, and my hero remained in the secondary town because there was no reason to return. The secondary town wasn't mine, and on the road, there was an opponent with 20-49 Ice Golems.

In the second week, Nagas were built in the Stronghold in my main town, and nothing was done in the secondary town. I didn't build a Castle because I planned to visit the Guest Town in the third week. I scouted the Conflux-Minimalka.

In the third week, I captured the Conflux and started building up an army with Angels. I didn't see the opponent's main town. I spotted the Conflux with 2-4 Angels. It was risky, as I could have been defeated and attacked, but it turned out to be a worthwhile risk because on the last tile, I ended up in the opponent's main Castle, killing 1 Goblin there.
At the end of the week, through the secondary town, the opponent came to my main town, taking 1-4 Angels from my Conflux along the way. There wasn't enough money to build a Castle, and my main town, with the Stronghold and 18 Golems, 1 Naga, 21 Gremlins, 6 Mages, and a hero with 30 magic damage, couldn't even kill 1 of the 2 Angels because Crag Hack had Tactics on Expert, plus 8 Birds, about 25 Orcs, and other minor units.

In the fourth week, I captured the opponent's secondary town, but then lost it. I then captured my own secondary town. It turned out that the generator had distributed the towns in such a way that each player had 3 main towns. It was a mess.

In the fifth week, I captured the Conflux with 3 Angels, the Library, and attacked Crag Hack, who was trying to reach the Library. He paid a ransom, and then I went to reclaim my main town.

The advantage in the army was on my side, but it was difficult. However, I managed to kill Crag Hack in my own Castle.

Thank you for the game!
