Wars of the Wizards 2

I started the first week miserably :( On 111, Edric arrived, so I had a whopping 15 shooters!!! But 6 Griffins as compensation :smile44: A spread of 4 Heroes: Caitlin, Edric, Labetha, and Aznain. The respawn was well-stocked with gold, though I still had to reach it first :smile26: and it was large enough for Diamond. There were Stables, a Well under the Castle, a Crypt, and an Experience Stone. I had one last rest left, but I decided to play this setup, seeing good tempo potential thanks to the Stables under the Castle and fast Mass Slow on my Main. But things weren't going as well as I'd hoped :D By 113, I couldn't reach the wood; I found the mine, but it was very inconveniently located, and as a result, I lost one day of building :confused: The Smithy didn't fit in((( As a result, the horses were placed on 117 in the Fort!!! :D I fought the first week with trash, because I only brought the horses out on 121 :smile52: On 115, there was also a funny moment with my Marksmen, I decided to attack Fafner near the portal. The famous "Orange Comp (Rampart)" started as Alagar, and that guy taught the Old Man everything he knew :D :cool: As a result, 3 Ice Bolts into my Upgraded Crossbowmen - no one survived :smile03: I won the battle, but there was practically nothing to fight with, since the Comp also had a decent amount of chaff) There was no army, I had to bypass the tough Basilisks through the snow, so I only reached the Rampart on 117, and spent the night there with Labetha :rolleyes: I basically started leveling on 122, after taking the Ogre's Club +5 with Vampire Lords and opening a Pandora's Box for 5k Experience with Cerberi on 123. They forced Archery onto Labetha as a third skill :mad:, but Tactics came as the fourth :smile02: Also on 123, Aznain grabbed a Dragon Fly Hive in the underground with 6 Wyverns, but because I had used all my Mana on both Labetha and Baldy, I had to wait one day before taking the second Hive next to the first in the underground. Because it was a "Big" one :p There were 2 Wells in the underground; Labetha went to one to take the Dragon Fly Hive, Baldy to the other to open a second front. Both Hives were located at the exit of the teleport from the snows, meaning the teleport from my neutral zone was supposed to lead to the comp, and then the opponent's neutral zone should have followed, but the division turned out to be very conditional. The teleport did indeed lead me to the comp, only from the Teleport there were 3 more roads: to the right, the road led to the Comp; to the Left, to a neutral Town; Up, the road had a strange split to another neutral Town; and of course the straight road to Gunnar)))) I was 2 turns from his Main :D Plus, I saw that one Village was colored - the one located on the road up and left, but a Powerful Block of 20+ Horses separated it from the Hives, and the block between the opponent's respawn and the neutral zone with the Hives was quite strong - 50-99 Ice Elementals guarding a Quest Clover and blocking the passage, so the Hives were "safe" and my chaff was also safe on 2 Noobs near the Hive :D At least, that's what I thought :smile08: Not everything fit in one place) The opponent saw all my movements from his vision, so obviously he broke through the Ice Elementals with Shaur Gel and ran to cut down my noobs with chaff, but only reached one of them :eek: As a result, he cut down 5 Ducks, 10 Elves, and the remains of the Marksmen. The main chaff lives!!!!! He lacked 2 turns to win :smile44: After sweating profusely :smile52: , on 125 I took the "notorious" Maxi Hive with Labetha and transferred down the road and left to Aznain, who in turn went and broke another Hive with 8 Wyverns. The next Turn Gunnar placed his Diemer in the passage so that I couldn't transfer home from the underground - I was cut off :smile27: , against his Shaur Gel, 11SP, and 140 Mana :eek: I could do nothing, even with a stronger army) My timer completely burned out, and I had a lot to do on 126. And I decided to do it with the wrong hero :smile35: I transferred the army to Baldy, who by then had been given Expert Earth, Expert Air, Advanced Wisdom, and Basic LOGISTICS! :cool: But I made a huge MISTAKE, because I forgot that Labetha has Tactics, what an IDIOT?! The result is: I break through Orc Birds with Aznain, break the Dwarf Cottage, break through a Horde of Griffins, take the Crown of +4 Knowledge, and leave Aznain, essentially, to die. Because only fake stacks of singles are left, only 2:( And with Labetha, I initially wanted to buy off with Tactics, but then I thought "the hell with it" and ran to the teleport that led to the comp, and bought off there :D At night, Gunnar brought himself some Upgraded Eyes, and in the underground, he did not forgive the Faeries; I lost my Main :smile35: But I had 2 of them, and by that time I had already scouted the Teapot and the KZ. So after buying off from the comp, I immediately ran for +6 All. Diamond Golems fell easily under Mass Slow, 4 Champions, and 19 Ducks. While the opponent was hesitating, killing the comp, I transferred my entire army through the snow via the "notorious" teleport, which Gunnar for some reason wasn't controlling, and bought Labetha back at the Village in the Snow, after which I took another Hive, and on 132 I killed 7 Black Dragons for the KZ, giving up all the fat. On 133, I took the Wings for 14 Fire Birds. On 134, I took the Utopia, which gave Boots of +2 All and Titan's Cuirass of +10 SP. From then on, I deliberately stalled the game, collecting all the Hives on the map through chains; ideally, I was waiting for the start of the second month to build Titans; there were 2 Giant external dwellings in the area where the KZ was located. 11 Titans would have fit perfectly under Labetha's Archery and the Golden Bow, but Gunnar got tired of sitting underground and went to take my towns; he came out unsuccessfully; I gathered everything I wanted, attacked him in the town; against 90+ Ducks he could do nothing, and my stats were an order of magnitude higher the whole game, especially since the underground was very poor, and I had practically devoured all of the surface like a salt pillar :D
Thanks for a PARTY that was awesome in terms of emotions!!! :smile03:
PS: the timer was at zero the whole game; I tried to play like a Starcrafter, but first I need to take lessons from a Lawyer to get everything done in 8 minutes :smile44:
PSS: there were only 2 Utopias, one in Gunnar's underground; he also had a KV, and there was no Collar on the map, and I was looking for it so much! :D
