Gafgarion[SonD] (red, Swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def Aldegir (blue, Barbarian, Crag Hack, Crag Hack)
Jebus Cross 133 ;
The opponent took Swamp with Tazar.. I decided to go with Barbarians led by Crag Hack...
We took 3 restarts due to slow movement and a bug (no exit from the Castle)
111 - Artifact - trident +1 vision... we buy the first scout horse + open the view and see
a wonderful sight... 2 Griffin Conservatories + Dragon Utopia + 3 external Goblin dwellings + 1 Hive + external Behemoth dwelling (but guarded by up to 49
Grand Elves).. a shield +3+3 guarded by up to 49 Vampires + 3 Prisons.. There's a Tavern outside.. we run to it
and buy 3 heroes there.. who scatter in different directions.. one of them reaches a prison and
frees another hero... and the scouting turned out superb for the first day :) .. total of 8 heroes..
I built Wolves.. 13 Wolves +54 Goblins and chaff from the horse (Hero on crystals! :) ).. we take a Crypt with
5 Vampires... lost 3 Wolves to the Vampires..
112 - Build Rocs + buy them all and attack with Crag on a Crypt.. and he's maxed out.. and 50 Gobs with 10 Dogs
wouldn't have managed against it... So I sacrifice the Rocs (more accurately didn't want to send them to waste.. but it just
happened that way :( ).. Captured an external Goblin dwelling... The opponent has fewer than 8 heroes...
113 - Captured 2 more external Goblin dwellings and retook the prison.. but didn't free them.. because there are
already 8 heroes roaming around... Captured a native secondary town with a horse + bought Goblins and Wolves there.. Gave Crag
Air Magic... Built Behemoths... The opponent has a secondary - Castle.. Already 8 heroes and 2 Wyverns +34
Lizardmen + 22 Gnolls... Scouting revealed GO - up to 49 Gr. Naga! :)
114 - Freed a hero with Troglodytes... + captured a Gold Mine.. + scouted another external Behemoth dwelling
but this time guarded by up to 49 Golems! :)
115 - Bought a Behemoth and 4 Ogres and took a minimal Griffin Conservatory +1 Angel.. Gave Crag
Earth Magic.. Have enough crystals for Cyclopes but then won't have enough for upgrading Behemoths.. which is not Good!...So we'll
build 1,2,3,4,5,7 in the Castle.. The opponent already has a second secondary...
116 - Took a Demon Imp Store for 200 + captured the shield +3+3 attack and defense from 23 Vampires.. Was offered Wisdom..
decided to take it.. since there should be Pandora's Boxes with magic in the treasure zone... Captured a secondary - Rampart...
117 - Took the external Behemoth dwelling and bought a Behemoth from it... Crag is only level 8 :( ...To keep Crag from
running with the Angel over obstacles.. we used horses to pick him up and then gave him back for battles.. and somewhere I miscalculated
the horse's movement and blocked Crag inside the dwelling.. and he still had a fair amount of movement left.. decided to dismiss the horse :)...
121 - Gather all Goblins from external dwellings and secondary towns + buy a native horse + buy a Behemoth in the
external dwelling and +3 in the Castle... Crag returned to the native Castle to buy a spell book...Upgraded the Goblins
(after all there are already 180+ of them :) ) ... Planning to hit GO on day 124-125 .. still need to take the Griffin Conservatory + Hive +
Medusa store and upgrade Behemoths and Wolves...
122 - Bought all troops + bought a spell book.. + on the way to the Conservatory we have Crag clear the Dragon Utopia's guard..
Harpies .. gave him Tactics! :) ...
123 - Upgrade Riders to Wolves + take the Conservatory for 3 Angels... lost 5 Riders and 4 Goblins...In
the Thieves' Guild they report that the Blue kingdom's army significantly outnumbers the Red
(White-Red Pole :) ) army...
124 - Take the Medusa stores with horses - one for 8 and one for 4 + a minor Gnome hut... Upgrade the Behemoths! :) Crag
doesn't have Logistics so our plans are slightly delayed... we'll only reach GO on day 126...But
still not bad .. we'll have time in a couple of days to clear something in the treasure zone.. too bad only 8 mana (1 Knowledge)
and 1 Spell Power :( but I do have Mass Haste..
125 - Opponent moved for about 8 minutes and then Connection Lost from the opponent's side.... Looks like he couldn't break through GO or something
:) Joking.. After 25 minutes he appeared online and we continued (and during the load his save appeared as
GM1 with a time of 20 minutes after the disconnect...)... Upgraded all Behemoths + took a Medusa store for 6 with a horse + Took a Hive for 6 Wyverns.. positioned ourselves near GO...
126 - Red destroys OUR GO and attacks the positioned Crag !!! :( 64 Gr. Lizardmen + 3 Gr. Hydras +
40 Wyverns + 15 Dragonflies ... stats 10-20-10-12 ... They cast Haste but Crag buys himself back with 4
Angels.... Good thing there was enough gold! .... Bought back Crag... Decided to take the Dragon Utopia near the Castle!
127 - Killed Red's horse + positioned ourselves at the Utopia..+ built Cyclopes..
131 - Took the Dragon Utopia for 2 Black Dragons .. got a shield +12-3 .. boots +2 to all + gloves..+ pendant
+3+3 luck and morale... Bought shackles from the trader... and ran into the treasure zone...
132 - Stopped right next to Tazar who was taking a Hive... didn't quite reach him.. Waiting for an attack presumably!
133 - Attack ... Implosion on my Angels .. we have Mass Haste ... he has Mass Bless and Mass Haste.. but 54 Wyverns + 5
Gr. Hydras + 84 Gr. Lizardmen + the rest with those stats left no chance..
Острые копья мы воткнём в небо
Полками затмим горизонты
Знает уже враг не откупиться
От казака ему золотом жёлтым.
Мы выступаем не за трофеев
Ведёт нас вперёд великая вера
Если погибнуть за землю родную
Не побоиться тут каждый быть первым.
Лютая братия будет битва
Сложат былины мудрые деды
А коли останемся в поле навеки
Что-ж, жить нам после - в легендах.
