Good draft: external dwelling of liches, bone dragons, two Griffin Conservatories level 3 and 4, and quite a lot of resources on respawn. First week, Necropolis cleared external dwellings, also built Castle with cavalry. At the start of the second week, took the Conservatories, Dragon Fly Hive, and the computer's ramp, where I immediately started building the Mage Guild. At the end of the second week, went into the treasure zone near my area, which had a Dragon Utopia with a Hat. Just as I built the Grail building in the ramp. Captured the computer's Tower; from the lookout tower I saw a roadless treasure zone on the sand. Using Fly and Dimension Door, Tant got in there — fortunately had Expert Air Magic — cleared three Dragon Utopias with a Chalice of Life, KZ, and other useful artifacts. Cleared visible Dragon Fly Hives with the leftovers (baggage). Upgraded the cavalry and built bone dragons. At the start of the fourth week, gathered the meat, turned it into bones, and flew to the opponent. Spent a day looking for him, capturing towns. In the end, he made his main stand in his Citadel: 13 Angels, 1100 Bone Dragons, 14 Cavalry, 32 Wyverns, 30 Liches, 40 Vampires, and 7 Dragons proved stronger than 15 Behemoths, 42 Cyclopes, 9 Angels, and 8 Giants, thanks to the advantage in stats, mana, and the opponent's slightly reduced spell power from boots — although the Vial of Life he had collected made the battle very difficult. Thanks for the game!

My opponent and I were left without restarts, and both of us played the drop for luck. The respawn wasn't very rich in money, and there was also a road block of one of the computers with a GO. On the plus side, Tazar spawned, and I immediately started leveling him. Near the respawn there were a couple of experience crystals, a Crypt, and a couple of Tombs. Tazar immediately got a great level-up through Earth Magic. I broke through to the respawn, and the computer's Castle was picking up a couple more Crypts there. The Dwarf Cottage got Earth Magic to 121. I took a Griffin Conservatory at lvl 1, two minimal Hives, and the Griffin Conservatory at lvl 4. I took the computer's Dungeon in the same treasure zone. At lvl 127, I took a Dragon Utopia at lvl 1 without useful artifacts, and due to a lack of resources, the Mage Guild was not built. I decided to break through the GO into the center at lvl 131 and go for the opponent, since from the Tavern I felt an advantage in power. At lvl 133, I captured the opponent's main; he didn't defend it. Not far from the castle, I found a Shrine with Town Portal, which later greatly decided the outcome of the match. In general, until lvl 147, we ran around and built up power, though the opponent had Jump. At lvl 147, I stayed overnight in the opponent's main because I saw he was possibly preparing to capture it, and he attacked in the field battle. A very strong advantage in stats, Colossus, and Anti-Magic on the damage-dealing stacks, plus Tazar's specialty, decided it. The meat stacks were roughly equal, possibly with a slight advantage for the opponent. They didn't fight to the end; the opponent surrendered. Thanks for the game!

Decided to try playing Tower. The lineup after restarts turned out sweet (factory one, three cons at respawn), but I underestimated the golems on snow, the mage's lack of attack (zero), and lost at the factory on 115. Thanks for the game.:o

A good draw for me, but my opponent couldn't make Luna work. Thanks for the game!

Good deal, from the start there was a close passage to the treasure zone, where I took a village right on day 111, and there was also a Dragon Utopia, so I didn't respawn. Further on, everything wasn't so rosy, I was developing slowly for a long time, but with Solmyr I took a box with 35 golems, which I upgraded and, together with the buy-in, into 50 iron golems I took the Dragon Fly Hive and by the end of the second week a second Griffin Conservatory, simultaneously scouting that treasure zone with a scout hero, finding many objects in different corners, I went there, collected everything I could, and leaving the cyclopes, I entered the second Dragon Utopia, taking it with a summon of air elementals on Solmyr, which I got at level 5. I rebuilt the Mage Guild for a very long time, Town Portal was given on the first rebuild, but Dimension Door was only given on the fifth, which caused me to fall behind greatly in tempo + I couldn't see Dragon Utopias anywhere, I lost half a week running Kirr and Solmyr around the treasure zone with the village and super treasure zone, where there turned out to be no Dragon Utopias, but enough objects, finally having gotten Dimension Door by week 4, I collected all the artifact workshops, fortunately there were 2 strong mains and 2 supports, and scouted 2 Dragon Utopias with good stats, I built Titans, from the observation I figured out roughly where my opponent was sitting, rushed over to him, attacked him in his town the next day, he had Angelic Alliance, but thanks to a significant advantage in stats and army I won, as it turned out my opponent had no Dragon Utopias at all, and after revealing the map after the game, it turned out there were only 5 on the entire map, with 2 being somewhere far far away in the corner, and 3 by me.
Thanks for the game!

There was a 4800 rollback in my favor. We played from the first try. I got an empty respawn with a Griffin Conservatory one and Luna from the start. I took the conservatory on 112, there was nothing much to take at the respawn, so it was going poorly. The GO was perfect — hydras. I was powering up little by little, preparing to go out on 117.

And that's how it happened, I came out with a single angel, the only meat I had were golems. I didn't have time to feed on meat in the center (only Luna could break through anything). But I found a КЗ, and doubled my mana in the central dungeon.

On 123, the OPP came, attacked, and after getting an implosion on the first turn, surrendered.

Thanks for the game.

Went pretty well, I took one Griffin Conservatory on 113, then another one, gathered Dragon Fly Hives with Peasants, and started moving towards the center.
In the center I assembled the Cape of Velocity [Zealot's Cape] box for Cyclopes and stats. The opponent came out quite late, tried to run in the other direction, but Gosh [Gocha] with Boots of Speed and Gauntlets of Ogre Power caught up.

Thanks for the game
