A.Matrix (red, demons, Deleb) lost to Vip.rus (blue, humans, Vittorio), Letos, huge, 2-2-?
The opponent allowed me to keep the demons, which is exactly what I took advantage of! For myself, humans! Both started with engineers. A game classic!!! Although same-start Deleb ran away earlier, I leveled up very well and reached her adjacent zone first! Clearing was absolutely no problem. Around week 3, I think, I attacked Deleb and she basically ran away without losses. I followed her path and came out to the Castle on day 1 of the new week, which I immediately regretted. Deleb attacked with growth; I lost 80 marksmen, she about 40 dogs. Bought my way out for just a couple of pieces. Went in another direction from the castle, took the Dragon Utopia right away, entered treasure zones, leveled up great there with 80 archers, took 2 more Dragon Utopias, found armor, a +20 ring and a -20 initiative staff!!! Gathered artifacts, headed home at level 25, and into ГО! Just stepped away from the computer, came back, and Deleb was already circling around the castle! I guess I got lucky, Sanya missed the city!:smile41: Although there was a decent army there, it's unlikely it would have helped me! Left the marksmen at lasle, merged into the city. Gathered everyone, things immediately started looking up. Deleb tried to slip away, but I had boots for range, so the escape failed! Caught up, and then as they say, no options left! The opponent clearly bled out on neutrals.
Thanks for the game, it turned out very interesting and not as simple as planned, not without a bit of luck:smile54:
Vittorio lvl 25
logistics up to keen mind and pathfinding
light
engineers with tent and 3 shots
attack with shooting and OS
luckI confirm. One of the few games where you could win by having one additional skill — and that is reconnaissance :) Let's just say, at the T-junction, I turned the wrong way.
VIP, it was an interesting game, I agree — real chess until the last week. Thanks for that :smile54:
