14.01.2014 R@sIM(blue, Dungeon, Shakti) def Colorado(red, Rampart, Ivor) 2sm4d(3) 141, thanks for the game.

Confirmed.
On the first week, a secondary hero on native terrain, 1-5 in Castle, 1-3 in Citadel. On day 113 I slipped past shifted guards (74 archers) - had to go back, lose tempo and 29 (almost all) Centaurs :(
On the second try I spread out across the fields, frantically gathering resources for building, but as luck would have it, no Griffin Conservatory, no Medusa hives, no Naga banks. Also didn't find a single Griffin Conservatory or a single Dragon Fly Hive (which ultimately decided the game), artifacts for stats were also scarce (( In the end, on day 127, Shakti surfaced from the underground right through his own side of ГО (later it turned out 70+ Manticores). I was taken aback a bit, didn't place dragons (even though I already had Griffins upgraded to level 2 and had the money and resources for them). In the end, by the third encounter, Ivor was level 8 with stats 7-7, without mass Haste and generally without even starting magic (in the end, I was never given either Earth or Air). I give my opponent auto: he collapsed on 45 Wizards - Mass Haste was cast immediately :smile21: . I understand I need to rush, on day 133 I take a pre-max Dragon Utopia. It gives me a Book of Air, boots of +15 resistance, a shirt of +10 resistance, and a potion of +6 all. I can live with that :smile13: . I break into the treasure zone, take Boots of Speed, then sadness: behind 13 Giants with a guard stack, a Pandora's box with only 5k experience - didn't even give a level :( At that moment, a scout hero surfaces from an adjacent secondary hero's position, the scout has 20-49 Wyverns + rest of the meat. Annoying, but Ivor without Logistics with the Wood units on hand can't reach the scout with the army either with Dimension Door or with summoning :(
After that, it's a matter of execution: Shakti doesn't guess the main, runs to a secondary (which, by the way, is also fully built) and on day 137 stops nearby. Ivor buys out at the secondary, replenishes mana and attacks, but I blundered - took growth on day 141 - Red Rush. Lack of experience showed - I haven't played in a long time.
In the end, after negotiations, I admit defeat, the opponent doesn't give auto. Although overall, in this battle there were no chances: the opponent had Mass Haste, 19-17 in stats, 6 Angels and 31 Wyverns, 20+ Greater Demons, while Ivor had 76 Greater Elves, 15 Grand Horses + 26 Wood units + 8 Wyverns, no Mass Haste, stats 17-15. I upgraded expert Tactics, hoping to block the Elves, but the lack of Angels (first strike) and Mass Haste decided it. I didn't have time to upgrade the Pegasi, and I should have...
Thanks for the game.
