"Newcomer-2011. Summer"

23.08.2011 Scorpiona (blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def KiNB (red, Fortress, Tazar, Tazar) 2sm4d(3), 145

Confirming.

On day 111 with an obelisk I scouted golden bow, external dwelling of serpents and bulls (but bulls were in the far corner of the respawn in bypass, and to flag it you'd need to lose about 5-7 days :( )
On first week 1-6 in the Citadel. Blocks on all secondary towns, nothing to break them with. Main hero only level 2 :smile18: .
121-124 I break through a triple block and take a Rampart secondary town.
125 I hit 88 air elementals with a growth stack for a chest of 10k experience. I got roughed up pretty good - 2 Wyverns, 7 basilisks, 15 growth serpents, 10 lizardmen and about 30 gnolls :smile16: . But my main got Attack and Earth. Right away I scouted an external dwelling of marksmen, and with the prospect of the golden bow, I build marksmen in the Castle of Rampart.
For the rest of the week I was scraping resources and gold.
131-133 I upgrade 30+ elves, Dwarf Cottage to 20, I transfer goods to the other end of the explored map for the bow.
134 I take the bow for 49! archmagi with a loss of 2 Wyverns, a couple of cows and about 10 archers :(
I notice the opponent near the guard on another secondary town — had to change plans and run my main home.
135 The opponent doesn't hit the guard :smile32:, my main goes into the subway and scouts a Hive
136 Tanya finally on my respawn, I hit the scout hero so it won't scout my respawn
137 They hit my scout hero with a Conflux growth stack and head for the obelisk :smile07:, my main takes a level 6 Hive, right away a Necropolis secondary town and splits for home.
141 Tanya lights up the obelisk. That's it, Tazar panics and walks around his castle for two days, afraid to go anywhere.
143 My main realizes it's useless to sit and decides to go to the opponent's capital through the Rampart secondary town. But I didn't manage to get far — on 144 Shakti showed up on the respawn, I split for home again.
145 With full liquidation and buying everything, Tazar holed up with golden bow in the capital, even though he knew magic would decide it. And so it did — a 220-damage lightning bolt left no chance.

Thanks for the game! Good luck in the tournament! I'll root for Tanya and wait for a rematch in the finals :D
