12.05.2012 Yegor Korobeynikov(RED,conflux,random,grindan,moner)def artbocha dangen(shakti,gurnison) 216 5on week 1, moner collected stats, while the others cleared respawn; on the same week I revealed 4 external dwellings of air elementals but only bought 3. On day 122, with Mass Slow, I break a Naga bank with 40 air elementals, and without replenishing mana, I go to break a GO 20-49 Hydras; I now have 66 air elementals, 20 Sprites, 16 Faeries, I have Bless, Lightning Bolt, and Mass Slow, and I have 30 mana left – I thought it would be enough, but I couldn't kill the Hydras quickly + morale. I use Bless, I use Slow, and I see that I have 8 mana left. The opponent attacks with Shokha, giving 3 shots (thank god not Lightning Bolt on the air elementals), and whoops, they're already 55. Seeing that I have no mana, he attacks with his main hero, army: 22 Evil Eyes, 10-12 Duz, 3 Scorpicores, 6-8 Wyverns (I think 8 of them), and 30 Troglodytes, AND A BALLISTA! He has 12/20 mana, stats 7 7 2 2; I have stats 2 2 9 6, something like that, and 8/120 mana. I use Slow, he casts Curse on the air elementals in response. In short, when my army is down to 7k, I buy my way out after landing a few final hits (total was 8150, and the army was worth about 11k at the start of the battle); I lost 20 air elementals – half a week's growth is no reason to give up! In short, I bought myself out, no money, nothing. On day 131, I went to my secondary hero, broke a level 4 Naga and a Dwarf Cottage (along with the Dwarf Cottage there was a Golden Bow); the max Dwarf Cottage gave me money, I bought Ice Elementals and someone else, broke a level 3 Griffin Conservatory (a level 3 Griffin Conservatory and a Golden Bow – not bad; the generator gave me a secondary hero!). Then I went into the treasure zone with my secondary hero. Killed 20-49 creatures for a Pandora's Box (there was nothing else in it; I thought it would give me magic!)
It gave me 5 Red Dragons. With the Dragons and Angels, I went into a level 2 Griffin Conservatory (I thought I'd walk through it easily, but the opponent has no Shield, no Stone Skin; the hero's combat stats are 4 4 + not a single warrior skill; in short, I had one Angel and 50 air elementals left (16 Wyverns, 5 Red Dragons, 15-30 Ice Elementals, 16 Psychic Elementals, and 10-30 air elementals died)). It gave +6 to all stats, +2 to all stats, Boots of 600 Speed, Cloak of Reckoning, and something else=) Then I bought an army, opened more Wyvern hives – already 34! 6 Birds, an Angel, about 80 air elementals, and so on=) My stats grew, and I started leveling moner. Cleared the treasure zone on week 4, then on day 1 4 6, I attacked with both main heroes and went to take my native Dragon Utopia. With moner, I took a level 8 Cyclops stockpile right by the capital! In the town, I left a hero with 5 Birds and 4 unbought ones to buy 7 Birds and kill the opponent's Shokha. BUT I DIDN'T NOTICE THAT THIS SHOKHA HAD AN ARMY, and he killed the Birds and took the capital with the unbought army! Moner has 90 Storm Elementals, 33 Wyverns, 6 Psychic Elementals, and 10 Ice Elementals; he returns and kills the opponent's hero in my capital; in response, he kills 16 Storm Elementals!=) I am very upset – 9 Birds lost out of nowhere, what a disaster! I pick up a shield on my main (+6 Armor) and go to break my native Dragon Utopia; army: 90 air elementals, 26 Wyverns, 10 Psychic Elementals, 6 Lightning Elementals, and 10 Ice Elementals. Moner with warrior skills and stats 20 20 lost 10 Psychic Elementals, 10 Ice Elementals, and 6 Lightning Elementals (fought much better than that dumb Grindan – it's infuriating that in 18 levels, no Ranged, no Attack, no Defense, no Tactics were ever offered, the bastard!). In the Dragon Utopia, I got the Book of Air (+12), a Sword (+4 +4), and Armor. I saw the opponent's army with a Shokha near a castle, and moner with 2 Dimension Doors and Mass Slow on 2810 reached him and killed him! By the way, I had enough movement to take the capital too=)! As it turned out, both my opponent and I made many mistakes, but 4 external dwellings of air elementals and the Golden Bow helped me win the game! Thanks for the game!
