It turned out to be an interesting match (and I wasn't even streaming :smile26:). Not only did I decide to benevolently play our favorite shared template, knowing that Kostya would be red, but he also decided to snag the Necromancer. Well, so as not to give him the ghost, I took a Necro too. The very first 3 respawns of 111 from the opponent wiped out 1 Galtran and 2 Claivuses for me; then came a shuffle of crappy layouts—I also spotted almost every respawn of Gosha's at Kostya's. And in good old tradition, the final layout for luck... a hero with Grems arrived, so there were nearly 100 skeletons, Tant and Clava arrived! Super :smile02:. I lit up a couple of Pandoras and immediately ran after them; both gave 60 gr skeleton units—well, it was practically divine providence to upgrade. Clava picked up a bunch of good basic skills, and Tant, not being a fool, immediately expertized Earth by level 4. There weren't many objects: the hive and cons were in the middle of nowhere... but! A lvl 5 hat, +2+2 cloak, ribs, earth orb, and a market with a +3+3 neck turned the game around. At 114 I reclaimed the hat and all other loot, resawn my mana and pushed into the Dragon Utopia at 115 (there were actually 3 of them on the respawn). But feeling that I was very strong with resurrection and summon and would take the Dragon Utopia anyway, I dumped all 200 bones there, although if I had entered with ones and played it clever, it wouldn't have been any worse... whatever. Resawn mana again, jumped via Fly DD to the cons—I knew it was 3-4, and a four worked perfectly through slow + summon. At 117 I returned everything to the city, finished off the Dragon Utopia in a chain; they gave 5all, 4all, +10 -2 belly MWAHAHAHA :smile51:. Right then Claivus jumps via the well to the next Dragon Utopia, plays it clever, and I immediately finish it as a loser. Max Dragon Utopia! They give wings, +10 -2 helmet, resist boots, +12 -3 sword, and a bag of gold. I set chains for taking 2 hives, the third Dragon Utopia, and exit to the treasure zone at 121. Basically, everything came together great; on the way, as a Necro, I sliced up 200 skeletons, 16 vamps; in the Dragon Utopia they give 3 all, 2 all, necro-boots! Then I immediately exited to the treasure zone and ran to the central city, picking up КЗ and a couple of hives along the way. Through the prisons and the central city, I ate whatever I could in the direction of the opponent, and stayed overnight on Tant with stats 20 20 35 25. The opponent made his move and surrendered, since after exiting to the treasure zone almost no meat remains, and the stats are far from ideal. I, on the other hand, was gathering an alliance under the orb in one turn, making 50+ ducks and 600+ skeletons, also picking up a Pandora for 5 angels. Thanks for the game )
I made 2 mistakes: 1. Took the Necro without thinking that Anton would counter Galtran with randoms. 2. In the penultimate draw (when Anton had 111 left), I bought Galtran as a 6th hero; obviously, I should have spread out to 5 and that was it... Though, perhaps, there still would have been a respawn.
Nothing to say about the played-out draw; I had to play without necromancy, only 2 Necros—the crappy starting mages (By the way, not Stracker, but Ksi was the starter; Stracker arrived on the second). Moner became the main one, getting Earth and free intelligence from the scholar. On the respawn there is a swamp village, but only 2 hives (8+4). Two cons (2+4). Somehow got out with oil via ifrits at 122; stats are laughable compared to Tant, army of 6 angels and 4 monarchs (spotted the max-con a day before exiting—had to take it as a zero loser and under-leveled the monarchs). Further, the road led simply into the ГО of the neighbor—red dragons with GS. In general, it's unclear how one could have won for me here, but Anton still played excellently from his side. Thanks for the game!
