28.07.2010 Gomunguls(Red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def GoD(Blue, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor)2sm4d(3),1.2.7
On the first, I broke a couple of crypts, 60 archers for a Pandora's Box of 5000 gold... grabbed a couple of secondary skills - Castle and Swamp... 8 heroes. GG 2 - Gunnar and Shakti... leveled Expert Earth for both... on the 2nd, with Shakti I break 2 Naga Banks (4+6) and a level 3 Griffin Conservatory (with a loss of 15 Troglodytes)... transfer the army to Gunnar and he breaks 2 Naga Banks (2+2) and a Medusa Shed... lots of money:) and on 1.2.6 I build Dragons and on the GO... breaking it just didn't work, and I left all the Troglodytes, a couple of Wasps, and a couple of Manticores at the GO... immediately capture the enemy's capital... the next turn I grab 2 Naga Banks (4+6) on his land:) and ride along the road... on 1.2.7 I get attacked and a tense FB... which I won.
Thanks for the game!!!
I confirm! After all the rests on Vitalik's turn, everything seemed super - 10 Elves for Vanka, right near the city a stash of horses behind a crowd of Gargoyles...
But the time of my turn comes and the colors sharply darken...
3 directions - GO, teleport behind the Nomads, 20-49 Monks behind the grass... respawn is just minimal - 0 gold... not a single crypt...
broke through the teleport and got a Barbarian secondary hero - but it's also very poor there, although there is a Dragon Utopia...
I go back from desperation, attack the Monks - there are 26 of them... lost 6 Grand Elves and 20 Centaurs - I could have managed without losses for the Elves, but I got greedy trying to sacrifice the main Centaur stack...
on 116 I had 4 heroes, and Pegasi were built - no money
on the grass I collected some cash, got a Conflux secondary hero and somehow through trading resources for cash and Emeralds I managed to insert the horses...
near the capital there's another stash of horses - but behind a crowd of Gr. Ments behind a shield
Vanka got Earth, a scout hero found Slow...
on the Conflux respawn, a Griffin Conservatory, a Hive, and 5 crypts are revealed.
on the second I collect money, everywhere I put 1000, made a buyout - on collecting money I lost tempo for about 1.5 days - in the end this was fatal, because for another 2 days with Expert Earth I was doing things that I could have done with scout heroes.
in plans for the 2nd week: take a second stash of horses, the Griffin Conservatory, the Hive, and on 131 either hit the GO or break the Dragon Utopia.
but Vitalka in his style
on 126 he breaks the GO (20-49 Hydras) - didn't notice the Shakhter's feet sticking out of the darkness:smile35:
as a result, my capital is taken from me
Vanka gets into the Griffin Conservatory - it, like my respawn, is minimal(((
took the Hive on day 8
I run to the capital
Shakhter takes 2 of my Naga Banks and doesn't have time to sit in my capital...
I manage to kill those Gr. Ments - 30 - scout heroes pick up the shield, but I didn't have enough moves to take the stash - it was 127 and I needed either to decide on an FB or to retake my own capital... I chose the first and was cruelly mistaken...
in the FB, the Dungeon players with Expert Tactics positioned themselves under the Grand Elves' strike
I cast Mass Slow... but the entire FB was won by 1 Red Dragon, on which naturally Slow didn't work and which blocked the Grand Elves, then in response they also cast Mass Slow on me... then 25 Medusas and Eyes on direct shot left 3 Grand Elves... after that I tried to knock out the Angels with single targets, but although Ivan's parameters were greater, 3 Angels did their job... and the Medusas also caused trouble...
overall, I should have gone and retaken my capital on 127 and calmly waited there for growth and upgraded the units...
DESPITE THE OFFENSIVE LOSS AND LACK OF SLEEP, THANKS A LOT TO VITAL FOR THE GAME!!! HAVEN'T HAD THIS MUCH PLEASURE FROM HEROES IN A LONG TIME!!!:smile01:
