Турнир "ФБ-6" -> Tournament "The Final Battle - 6"

01/12/2013 Maretti (red, necro, ?, moandor) def Medium (blue, castle, ?, marius) 146 on mini nostalgica

Everything went my way in this game. Every time I needed something, I got it. Good skills on my main hero and a log from a hut, stables acquired by the CPU player, 3 cons in the starting area. Went to the desert treasure area and found boots and gloves. Was building a huge army and then went to the next treasure area and took 4 topes there. Got air and earth book, red orb, red cape, 12 shield, HH. Then went to the middle treasure area and took a couple of hives there. I expected him to sit in his town at 147, so I went for it at 146, but he was sitting there. Decided to attack him in town anyway, since I had a bit better stats and 62 wyvs and 8 angels vs his 10 aas and 28 wyvs. Won easily.

Thanks for playing.

Yeah, mini-nostalgia on a random map is something else. In the first two rounds, the opponent had Gundula with two neighboring barbarians against my castle and inferno, then another barbarian against necro, resulting in castle against necro. There were 2 paths to the treasure areas - Tower and Necro, but the Tower path was a dead end, with no path to the treasure, meaning only 1 treasure area instead of three, and it was also blocked at the entrance. The treasure area, although not poor, had all the valuable items around the perimeter, half the map from one utopia to another. Marik only got a log on level 16 and struggled until the end of the month.
It didn't make sense to go to the center earlier, as there was neither an army nor good stats, and besides, the center was a swamp. Even after opening it, I couldn't find a way to fight Moandor, who was leveling up perfectly and collecting clues, cons, and utopias with everything he needed along the road.
