19.11.2012 Sevensan (Red, Inferno, Kael, Gunnar >>> Vokial) Def Dima Surmay (Blue, Castle, Valeska) 8mm6a 223
What a game that was!
111-117 Kael with three stacks in the underground, and that's 32 Fire Shooters from the start. The resources were thrown together average, plus I had to take out shooter blockers. On the second day Gunnar appeared and started leveling up. Mid-week one I took my native Conflux (whose heroes with shooting minused 20 Gogs from me), also an external market, which eventually allowed me to get to Efreeti in the Citadel.
121-127 Second week. Straight away I lose the Efreeti on 50 Marks =( I take a max Dwarf Cottage and break through to the central portal. There are Boots immediately behind the Ice Elementals and the center village (which turned out to be key). Gunnar already has Expert Ballistics and Basic Earth. Mid-week I take down 14 Unicorns for a Dragon Fly Hive +6 and 30 Trolls for a Dragon Fly Hive +8. I have 14 Wyverns, 3 Efreeti, 7 Pit Fiends. Fight 64 upgraded Basilisks for 15k exp. Expert Logistics and I got Air. Dragon Fly Hive +8 and the Necro computer is defeated. The Necro has a Griffin Conservatory +2 and on the last day I take Dima's Necro computer with a Capitol! Dima has 1 castle and I am sure of victory.
131-137 Cleared out the Naga Banks, income of 9k, impressive! Took another Dragon Fly Hive, re-necromanced some Skeletons and went to Dima! On the way I killed a chain of scout heroes, understanding he was in the treasure zone, but I miscalculated and on 135 didn't have time to equip the Boots, which on 136 didn't allow me to capture his castle without troops, which would have been equivalent to GG. In the end I stood right under his castle. He teleported home and holed up.
137 I look.. 50+ Marksmen, Angels, Unicorns, Wyverns — in short, no point in attacking, I killed a couple of scout heroes for some reason and ran away... Oh, what a mistake that was!!! He had Gloves and Boots of Speed, caught me, blinded the Wyverns... In short, I played the final battle disgustingly, giving away all the meat (27 Wyverns, 3 Angels, 6 Efreeti, 12 Pit Fiends, 200 Skeletons, + lost a level 18 hero with Tactics, Attack, Earth, Air, Boots of Speed... + gave him Boots of Speed, Necklace of Swiftness, Sword, Helm .. in short, everything! I killed only 6 Unicorns, 10-20 Marksmen and 5 Champions... And there we paused...
141 ... I collected my thoughts. There was the whole main army and Valeska with 3500 MP... I started assembling a main army from two Necro castles. Good thing I had a Necro, a second one came. And there was Kael with Expert Earth, Attack.. in short I started pressing forward. 100 Skeletons, 3 Dread Knights and 11 Power Liches as a good start.
141-147 Took a Griffin Conservatory +3. Defeated the Tower computer (at the cost of two Angels.. I decided to go against 3 Phoenixes and there was a full Seer's Hut... one Angel barely survived with 20 HP.) Dima only on 145 !!! came to me, for some reason going through rough terrain, wasting precious time, collecting resources with his secondary hero. In short, doing nonsense.
147 3 Necromancers necromanced 450 Skeletons (with the home computer's boost). Dragons in the castle in both castles + an external dwelling of Dragons... At home, Devils in the castle!!!
211 .... um.... A Plague Week... !!!! AaaahHHHaaaaaaaaaaaa... oh crap... In short, In short my growth of 7 dragons went down the drain (plus one un-purchased...) 8 Power Liches also in the bucket.. in short, everything in the bucket!!!! WTF... well, I survived it somehow, started playing on. I have a Dimension Door scroll, thinking about Mage Guild level 5.
211-217 Dima finally figured out what was what and started to take castles. (while moving his main hero through rough terrain, collecting resources. It turns out he had a Fly scroll and was building a Mage Guild... In short, over the week Skeletons grew to 1200, the Elixir of Health was assembled! 20 Wyverns, and on 217 in Tower I got Town Portal.
222 A Dragon Utopia was broken
223 Another Dragon Utopia + I took Dima's main castle with two Angels. Surrender follows. Always fight till the end!!!
I confirm, on 141 Sevensan made a redrench killing a scout hero, but since I had taken auto-recall before that, let's call it even.
