GL Orc Krag, level 22, defeated Oneman, Human, Rootger, level 23. Score: 2-1-3.
He started well with Kigan, but miscalculated and lost on day 9 in the maximum-level dungeon with 4 griffins. He was both upset and angry at the same time. He bought Krag, who went on the offensive, but was behind. He broke through to 2-1-1, but just as he was gaining momentum, Rootger attacked, and if he had retreated into the portal, I wouldn't have caught him. I had to attack, even though the risk was high. I suppressed magic, darkness didn't work, but Krag, of course, did a great job of stopping the Inca. I wish Oneman would gain more experience, because he has the potential to win, and thank you for the game.
I confirm.
In general, he masterfully squandered a winning game :).
He developed well, had a lot of units, and all of them were bought out of fear of the plague week. On the 5th week, he had almost 90 monks, and 70 of them participated in the last battle.
At the beginning of the 5th week, he just moved to the treasure city - and Krag caught him. He had half his mana, but a significant advantage in troops (70 monks, 130 crossbowmen, 2 archangels, 50 peasants vs. 135 centaurs, 140 orcish warriors, 220 goblins, 11 earth shamans, 2 chieftains, 1 water elemental). He developed towards darkness (he only got mass weakening and mind control from spells), and he fought absolutely poorly. The fact that he was playing in a hurry doesn't really excuse it, because he should have stopped the game, but he decided that it wouldn't take long and would be easy :). When he freed himself after an hour, out of curiosity, they played the final battle again - with the same result, although he defeated most of the opponent's troops. The funniest thing was when the opponent asked, "Why didn't you run away?" and I realized that after retreating, he could have still gained a significant advantage with the troops he had and the hero's speed (on the last day, he also found boots of speed). It's not a fact that he would have won, but he definitely should have fought.
Although there were some unpleasant moments (the necessary darkness spells didn't appear, the hero's stats were very bad - no bonus to defense or intelligence, he even got attack somewhere around level 20, and he had to take education around level 15 so as not to take machines), I think he lost solely due to his own mistakes and inexperience.
Thank you to the opponent for the game. I learned a lot while playing, especially the final battle was enjoyable (not for the first time, of course).
We will fight again! :)
