“Two Seasons: Summer-Autumn 2014” Tournament. Online games for rating (reports, discussions).

We played all random.

Necro was dealt in the Dungeon, but there are 2 native heroes and a Griffin Conservatory 3-4 at Castle. True, the portal exit is behind grezhene's lisses, waiting for vamps. Haste is in the Mage Guild. On 112 I break Dwarf Cottage-15, money got better. Broke through the portal, ran along a very long road. On 115 I found a Griffin Conservatory-1, there's an angel and a hundred bones. Then a jackpot surfaced - I found several more Conservatories along the road, beat Necroshuba with chumps behind the snipers, and at home I took a third-level Conservatory, another one was found in the rear.

On 123 I replenish mana - Moandor has Expert Earth, base Offense and Defense, I run to the Dragon Utopia, while the remaining loot is taken by the chumps. On 125 I break a third-level Dragon Utopia with 10+ angels and 500 bones without losses (animate dead found luckily), it rewards royally - Book of Air, Plate Mail of Spellpower, +3 All Stats. Other Necros with a couple of angels take a dead-end village. Nothing interesting there.

I recall home and run in another direction - as fast as possible to the opponent, but, unfortunately, I run into a one-way portal. I don't want to dive all in there, so I run to my computer - a Dungeon, which I had successfully ignored for 2 weeks. Moandor with control got significantly ahead of support, so with 10 angels I attack the computer holed up in a Castle. Lost an angel, the AI got lucky with Blind :smile34:. A significant drawback was the lack of logistics on the main hero, and no artifacts for movement or stables were provided. I only found boots closer to the end of week 3, and had to abandon logistics entirely (didn't wait for it :smile18:), buying Air in the university. The skill progression is ideal, almost; instead of logistics, the main hero has learning. I kind of slacked on Necro - had no time for it at all.

Meanwhile, at home, Mage Guild level 4-5 is ready - there's Town Portal! and summon something. And a couple of chumps with Expert Earth/Air. I spotted a Dragon Utopia behind the terrain, rushed there instantly. It turned out to be a double with КЗ (not really needed anymore, but it'll do :D) and a Crown 4 4. I DD into the darkness a la Maretti and land right on two hives and a library. After all this, I jump to the Barbarian computer, whose Inferno computer was taken from a day later by chumps with control.

Closer to the end of the fourth week, I took the opponent's main (by army - 1400 bones, about 20 birds, 30+ ducks (almost all my hives were minimal), a pack of liches), covered a pack of King Minos on a chump. A little later comes the surrender - he only has one town there, worse in meat, and nowhere to go.

Thanks for the game.
