Reports on online games and their confirmations (Winter 2009 season).

Lord Jorik (Blue, Castle, Valeska, Valeska) def Oelm (Red, Rampart, Kir, Kir) cm-ka (3), 135

Confirmed. Started without archers, without reserves, on slow roads, and with a dwarf rush. On day 113, I took a secondary Castle. I decided not to restart because I had enough money. I was doing okay, and on day 121, I stopped before the wood, but I didn't have enough money to buy it, so I decided to go with part of my army to attack:smile18:.
I wanted to surrender, but then I saw the tavern, and the opponent's pace wasn't very fast. I attacked the wood, reinforced my troops, took the Necropolis, and teleported to the Blue player on day 126. My army consisted of Lucari from the Castle, horses, wood, and dwarves. I sent Valeska with an Angel and Edric with archers. Edric paid a ransom, and then I attacked Valeska, who also paid a ransom. That's where I messed up badly. Because I thought the Blue player couldn't win, I visited the upgrade building to level up my Earth expert, but I should have replenished my mana. On my turn, Valeska with the ransomed Angel, 3 horses, Ice Bolt, and other units attacked the guard at the Castle, but I didn't even go there:). There was only one guard at the Castle, and she attacked me with Angels and Champions. Then the blunders began; I couldn't switch from a light strategy to a fighting one.
I used my mana incorrectly in battle, paid a ransom, and on the next turn, I stole bracers from Valeska right under her nose and made another foolish attack with Kentas. But I should have saved up and boldly attacked with bracers and reinforcements. In the end, after 3 ransoms, I attacked with bracers, but I didn't manage to destroy the Angel, and in such battles, it's important to see the mana reserve, but I don't have the Platinum version. GG.

I've been playing poorly in the last few matches.

Thank you.
