10.03.2011 Sevensan (Blue, Castle, Валя, Гуннар) Draw R55Max (Red, Stronghold, Тираксор) 8mm6a 145

Finally got around to writing a report, since we played all day yesterday and I was very tired =)

111 Opp took all the rests, I had 1 left. Stables under the castle, middle, external dwelling of champions, two native heroes, 27 archers, Gunnar as the 7th hero. Excellent.

114 took 4 small crypts, and rode to the computer... Why? Should have taken the external dwelling of champions and cleared the respawn, there was plenty to do. My mistake.

115 My computer is Inferno, on morale against GG I lose 7 archers.

116 First Epic fail! (Screenshot 1) 8 gogs in the Citadel destroy EVERYTHING. Nothing left to take the external dwelling of champions with, fortunately the Horses appeared in the castle.

121 with buyout and trade, the external dwelling of horses is taken.

122 8 horses +12 upgraded knights attack archmages for the pandora... there are 48 of them, damn. I lose 8 knights. They give 60 non-upgraded archers! A gift! Then, to not lose tempo, I sacrifice another horse and a knight for 60+ vampires and take the archers.

125 Dragon Fly Hive for 12 cyclopes on 4 wyverns. I build a chain to take the green's empty castle on 131.

131 I take the green Inferno with all the growth. Need money for buyout to get into the treasure zone, and a scout hero on the way to a Naga bank... 4 or 6. I risk it and enter... it's 6... I have no magic... IT WAS HOT! (Screenshot 2) Another fail, fortunately on the last morale of the archers I didn't lose them all...

132 entered my native snow-like treasure zone. There's also a Dragon Fly Hive on 4 and ready for the Griffin Conservatory. Gunnar has excellent skills and has oil.

133 Griffin Conservatory on 4, external dwellings of monks and griffins. There's a Dragon Utopia.

134 more external dwellings of marksmen and monks. The treasure zone turned out to be huge. Another one is visible but can't be reached.

136 for 120 elves took a Dragon Fly Hive on 6

137 planned to split hero back home, build angels, and with the angel speed up and replenish mana
but due to lack of money with trade almost at zero, at the last second I manage to cast a portal, but no longer can split. Didn't make half the moves.

141 had to split on this turn and wait for mana. In futile attempts to find money in the underground, I lose 1 angel with a scout hero on 46 pit fiends which stacked into 1 stack....

143 I stand on the Dragon Utopia, waiting for the secondary hero from the castle.

144 Dragon Utopia on 2 Black Dragons. Gave a helm + necklace +all and 30 executioners (Screenshot 3). Immediate buyout and I stand on the speed point near Town Portal to the opponent.

145 23 19 16 15 I jump into the portal, kill two scout heroes from the chain and am ready to take the capital. Glitches started, the game kept crashing from around 141. I was pretty tired and offered a draw, with a rematch on the same terms. Opp agreed, he wasn't having a great time either. Tense game, Thanks for the game!

11 hours of gameplay. In the only somewhat decent generation, I stupidly lost by attacking gnolls, there were almost a hundred and their morale was just massive. Had to take the last restart.
In the last generation, it gave 2 castles to help blue, one of them my neighbor. Naturally, one of the tasks was to take them ahead of blue, which I eventually did. The sawmill was very poorly placed. behind two guards deep in the mountains, and there didn't seem to be any tree stacks, maybe one. On my respawn there were no convenient money buildings. Throughout the game I only dug up a max Dwarf Cottage and a couple of crypts, a pandora for 5 gold, the rest was all collected exclusively from the ground, later a Dragon Utopia.
Anyway, didn't build bears on the 1st, built birds in the castle, had taken an external dwelling of rocs.
In short, with a constant money problem, I developed sluggishly all game. Anyway, I took a Dragon Utopia not far from my mini-capital - gave little. Built grey ones in the castle, but still didn't have enough money to upgrade them, split with Tiraksor on the last moves after the Dragon Utopia. Planned to buy them out the next day in a dungeon town, build a Mana Vortex and go into the underground Dragon Utopia. At that point, the previously occurring game crash problems continued. Either Aeris turned into a second Tiraksor, or just "bugged out". Anyway, when I approached the 2nd Dragon Utopia, opp approached my capital. I took mine - it gave KO, a sword +5 all and something else, the main heroes' stats became roughly equal... The game crashed again, starting 5 days earlier, and then playing hide and seek the blues didn't want to :) agreed to a draw, which in this situation was a decent result.
Thanks for the interesting and tense game.
