Adv (Dwarves, Gelmar, Red) defeated Leolopus (Humans, Rutger, Blue) 2-4-4
Very difficult start... in the 1st adjacent zone and mines - desert, in the 2nd adjacent zone - swamp, was pleased that the Log finally gave me level by 15-16.
By week 5 I broke through the center, picked up Traveler's Boots at the entrance, found Resurrection in a pyramid... and things picked up after that...
Found 3 artifact shops, where over a couple of weeks I managed to snag the "Staff of the Netherworld" and "Ring of Speed 20%"... from the center I got into the treasure zone,
wandered around there until I met Rutger with a horde of Inquisitors...
Portaled back to the castle and went to break through the GO... Rutger didn't want to go there from his side for some reason...
There I found another 3 artifact shops and bought the remaining parts for the "Cloak of the Deathly Shadow" set.
Leveled up to 30 and went to visit Rutger... fortunately, trained Knights and Inquisitors were already waiting for me there.
Simultaneously, I was leveling Sveya and Inga... came to my opponent's home with a herd :)
Rutger came out of the castle, attacked Sveya with Fire Elementals, and she managed to cast Armageddon once on the field...
Then he went after Gelmar, and here's the final battle...http://ifolder.ru/14323445, my opponent didn't have the patience to see it through to the end... but I understand him,
The terrain, and I must say luck, was not on his side...
Gelmar level 30, 18-20-17-18 (typical for a Dwarf - neither here nor there)
3 Races - completed, greatest
3 Light - Righteous Wrath, Storm Wind, Protective Gift
3 Luck - Soldier's Luck, Dwarven Luck
3 Attack - BB, Tactics + Hird
3 Defense - BDP
3 Log - Pathfinding + Surprise Attack
Thanks Leo for the game! ;)
P.S. Dwarven Luck combined with 10% boots sometimes works wonders :)

Thought I wouldn't comment on anything, but I've calmed down a bit now, basically everything was going like clockwork, everything was falling into place everywhere, I was playing for my own enjoyment, training Inquisitors and Knights, but the terrain in the final battle simply shocked me, on my side everything was filled with rocks, literally from the deployment point to the center there was only one passage, two squares wide. My opponent had the initiative and he blocked my exit, well then my guys just stood there, occasionally responding to the opponent's attacks:smile30: And of course the Dwarf's resistance worked 100%, exactly 100%, whoever watches the save will see it with their own eyes:eek: In short, after such a final I want to get drunk and forget this nonsense:smile52: I have two games left, which no longer decide anything, I'll play for my own enjoyment - it's a shame, the only more bitter loss was against Twaryni, anyway, I'm off :smile23:
