On the first week Ciele arrived, I expanded, I had one secondary hero in the underground (turned out to be Dungeon), my opponent had 3, and a ГО stack of titans, or a horde of champions. I built cavalry and griffins in the Citadel, in the dungeon beholders and medusae with a portal and an external dwelling, took a Dwarf Cottage with 100 dwarves and an upgraded stack, had money.
On the second week, a scout found a level 1 Griffin Conservatory, Ciele found another small Dwarf Cottage, upgraded crusaders, cavalry in the stables, upgraded griffins, didn't have enough money to upgrade 25 medusae, and I went to rush scorp through the underground gates at the Dungeon respawn. I emerged on 124, scouted the air view where the capital was. Rode over and took it, built a hero chain to deliver growth on 131. Scorp defeats Kyrre from the treasure zone, attacks my scout with 40+ pikemen and kills him, captures the capital and stays there to split with pegasi; the capital has a garrison of fairies and air elementals. Ciele can't reach, I pass the army to Labetha and she reached it. Morale triggered in time and Kyrre couldn't retreat, gg.
The rematch forced me to come back to HoMM, though I haven't remembered everything yet... :smile33:
Game 2: loss on the grass on 117 in a second level 3 Griffin Conservatory; the habit of ticking seconds affected me, and I was a bit late making the right decision (staying to split at the Griffin Conservatory — the secondary was already upgraded to champions, at home eyes + external dwelling + portal)... could have played on, but the opponent's early surrender relaxed me somehow and I decided not to drag it out.
Game 3: I messed up at the start, taking an artifact instead of crystals — and it turned out to be my only one for almost the entire game :) until the treasure zone; from the build of grand elves in the Citadel, of 13 grand elves on 112 for the secondary, 8 remained (there was nowhere to go); for the other secondary I had to beat 2 archer guards and a Dragon Fly Hive, and for the rest, the respawn ended before it even started. The secondary was Stronghold, then the road was bugged and lay through the treasure zone and a grand elf Dragon Utopia — without tactics there was nothing left / Thunderbirds couldn't reach, which I built right away. I went into the treasure zone on the second turn with 16 or 18 grand elves, 5 Thunderbirds, 40 Centaur Dragon Fly Hive, expert Slow, 10 mana, 3rd spell — there I took a Naga Bank for level 3, spotted 3 Dragon Utopias and 2 Dragon Fly Hives. I spent mana on several fights, broke off to replenish, forgetting to pick up the quest helmet of +1 knowledge (mana was already 15, had Intelligence)... and then appears — not that he appears, but very slowly enters my respawn from the metro through rough terrain, and only on day 3 captures the castle — which was being taken in 1 day (you can't do that)... I leave my town, which didn't fall at all, and turn my max 15 mana into 90 (!:smile44: ) and return to the treasure zone for +5 spell, 2 Dragon Fly Hives (0 meat except 48 dwarves — they decided the Dragon Fly Hives; couldn't take birds, Centaurs, or grand elves there). In the end, 4+5 (lost 1 Wyvern due to carelessness) Pandora's Box for 15k experience — the rest was beyond my reach... I leave the army, and split off myself to counter the logist with a machine gun (no army needed)... I split off through the lower secondary (conf), cut down a scout along the way, take the central capital, and then I wanted to split but pass the army — 6 air elementals and a few butterflies — in the end I make 1 move into the castle and can't reach the split (( stay overnight, and put a noob under the GG so I could retreat... the noob with a machine gun attacks my Kyrre with a few troops and a fatal error — MORALE — at the end of the 2nd turn didn't let me cast magic and retreat; otherwise everything was under control — the opponent's GG Ciele was a weak mage 208 (90 mana), Kyrre 12 spells, and most importantly, control of the opponent's turn... alas...
Thanks for the nostalgia and the games :D
