Well, I'm going to take a break for a smoke.
The lumberjack is nervous... :D Even though it's the final battle, it's on auto-battle... It's not like he was fighting dragons in the final, right? :)

So, how did it go for everyone?

I wonder if any of the organizers will show up tomorrow? Because VDV promised that everything would be okay...

I think I managed to complete it in 23 days... I forgot the stats, it was a while ago, and I don't have the save file with me... :)

To be honest, I expected it to take around 15 days... :), I'm even surprised...

Why? What's the rush? I've been playing for fun for a long time, not for results – the first and also the last playthrough in one evening... :)

Well, I'll figure out how to play it perfectly on the first try – I can see the map, I understand the meaning, the idea, everything... but I definitely wouldn't achieve such a result on the first try.

That's a bit too long, I barely scraped by. I leveled up an extra hero. I messed up with the digging. For some reason, I completed one of the quests. It can be done faster, but I don't understand if it's possible to do it in two weeks, i.e., without the second rescue from the fortress, I don't see how it's possible. I hope that if such results are achieved, the leaders will upload save files right before joining Gargoth - I think this moment is key, although I may be wrong and there may be another way to complete it.

My first playthrough also took 23 days. I played as Galtran and defeated everyone with skeletons.
The second playthrough, with the old woman Kira and diplomacy, took 19 days.

Well, I'll figure out how to play it eventually, even if it takes a few tries. I can see the map, understand the concept, and grasp the overall idea... but I definitely wouldn't have achieved such a result on my first attempt.
So, what result did you achieve? Go ahead and tell me – I need to get to sleep soon. :)

What have you achieved? Go on, tell us – I need to go to sleep soon.

I'm not feeling very inspired to write... – It took 32 days, and the main hero is Uland :D (don't even ask why...)

What strategy did you use, at least?:eek:

The strategy is quite simple – diplomacy, navigation, and logistics ;)

Diplomacy :) I had 120 Gorgons; all battles were on auto-battle. I had to join two stacks of Gorgons, although, of course, I could have won with just one, saving a couple of days in the end... But I didn't have time to mess around with dragons and all sorts of Crag Hags... :) I specifically attacked him so he wouldn't run away and so I could take him for myself right away - for the stats... :) The only real challenge was in the game itself... :)

Dmitry, did you manage to finish it in 2 weeks, or not? :)
