Wraith(blue,ramp,Kyrre,Kyrre)def Kash(red,castle,Valeska,Valeska) 2smd4(3), 136
...
Also at the end of the week I found an estate and had a secondary dwelling of my own, which was very nice, and at the beginning of week 2 I already had ~50 Grand Elves.
...
I find Golden Bow and Pendant of Total Recall +6 all stats, for 100 Orcs and 50 Pit Lords respectively, which ultimately decided the game.
...
I see Valeska in the tavern ~6 8 2 1, as it turned out later even without a spell book. I have ~14 12 8 8 and a direct arrow spell. And just as I enter the Castle and move troops out of the portal, Valeska appears
...
Then there was some very fun running around: he captured my main Castle, I ran to Valeska's abandoned castle with 1 Angel, and he didn't have enough money to buy back, so he fled. I didn't make it to my main Castle, so he built the Castle there, pardon the tautology (=, and I, not daring to attack, went to capture the external dwelling of Unicorns. Then a lot of running around, and mass slaughter of heroes at each other's bases. In the end, both got their Castles back. Then, since there was nowhere special to go, Kash came at me, I attacked, mass Slow, and minus his 20 Grand Elves and 50 Marksmen with my 25+25 Grand Elves. The rest wouldn't have even reached. GG
P.S. The map generation was very strange, which added a lot of interest.
Thanks for the game.
Right next to the Castle there's a Dragon Utopia, external dwellings of 1 pack of Archers and 2 packs of Pixies, a Griffin Conservatory - strong (level 2 generator), near it a teleport on rugged terrain. Also a teleport to the Rampart's secondary dwelling, a path to the Conflux. Roads are fast
In the first week, I cleared external dwellings, both of my own secondary dwellings. Opponent - took Rampart and Tower. Valeska and Kyrre are neck and neck in stats. What was very surprising - at level 6 Water Magic and Diplomacy were offered (not Wisdom). After Water Magic, I had to take Pathfinding, nothing better was available
Took Griffin Conservatory on 123, 124 candle - Kyrre's amazing stats (or the Pendant, or I don't know), but the teleport near the Castle - you need to break through anyway. With an army of 2 Angels, 5 Cavaliers, about 40 Marksmen, 7 Griffins, and 100 Pixies, I emerge at his secondary dwelling, break the chain, Kyrre is at the secondary with 25+25 Grand Elves and 2 Cavaliers and doesn't come out, they bring her Dwarves, Dendroid Guards, Centaurs from somewhere on the field. Okay, I run to the main castle on 125, but unfortunately don't have enough movement to sit (darn, couldn't upgrade the Pixies). I buy a hero there, kill one Scout nearby with him. I leave Valeska with one Angel - there was no time to think much, for some reason I figured Kyrre couldn't reach me with Dwarves, or couldn't reach the Castle, then I'd buy back there. That's what happened, but while I was messing around, I didn't have time to get to the market, and the turn was passed with 1350 gold in my pocket. Minus an Angel. I buy back Valeska in Rampart, build the Castle (goodbye resources)) Kyrre doesn't attack.
Then came the most interesting part. I bought the growth of Grand Elves and Cavaliers in Rampart, also took the secondary dwelling - and bought Grand Elves there too. Meanwhile, the heroes are waging vicious wars, and mine don't even have shooters (where would they come from, I didn't build a Mage Guild, bought the spell book from the opponent)), Adelaide on a Sprite killed a hero on a Centaur with a Ring of the Magi), Turis bought Air Elementals and killed Clavius with them along with all sorts of rabble, etc. In short, towards the end there were 2-3 heroes each (still scratching each other), zero money, roughly equal armies, but Kyrre's stats were significantly higher, plus some trump cards I didn't know about.
I recaptured my capital with a thousand in a fight, killed the growth, and then went to Kyrre, not that there was nowhere else to go, I just didn't want to spoil such a cool game by powering up in treasure zones :)
In the final Pendant of Total Recall, whatever. But when I saw the Bow + mass Slow... GG
Thanks for the interesting game, we'll settle the score
