TFP :)

I was glad to start with 2 stables, a castle, a Hive, and a Bubble.
Then it turned out that this was the only good thing in the game.
2 one-way paths leading out from the neighboring spawn point. I went into the closer one - it was a dead end. I ran to the 2nd one on the opposite end of the map. But it was already too late.

I had one more turn left, then Grindan arrived. From the tower, it was clear that the resource was far away, but it could be reached by going around. There were also air elementals present. So, I decided not to take the turn because I was doing well with gold. As a result, after breaking through to the mine and freeing another hero from prison, Brissa went along the road to the gray confluence. Grindan wandered around until the birds appeared. He started taking gold mines with the birds. At the same time, Brissa, at level 117, managed to kill the confluence. She was moving through the underground, so I decided to separate her and focus on two directions. At level 124, I found a scroll of Dimension Door behind the monks; it looked very interesting. At level 125, I ran into an opponent who, by taking the road, snatched my blue swamp. Then, I saved the game, watched the replay, and realized that the opponent had surrounded me on all sides. So, I decided to take his town, which Brissa could reach with Dimension Door. The plan was to either buy him out or escape, but the opponent had 7 angels and a good strategy, and he managed to kill my entire army due to low morale. I got a scroll of Dimension Door (which I couldn't use, though, because I was only at guild level 2), but for me, the game was lost, despite the 12 birds I had left (I rebuilt them in the city of the second confluence). So, I decided to surrender. Thank you for the game!

Luna came, there were two experience stones, so I didn’t restart. The road was 6k, so on day 112, I got a +5 helmet for organs. On day 113, I regenerated mana in the village. Then I pushed to another village and into the central zone, and on day 117, I cleared a manticore dwelling. I sent Tazara with 4 ducks to defend resources on the GM in a 3k area via off-road, and with Luna, I searched for various useful things. At the end of the 2nd week, the opponent attacked my stronghold with his own and killed it; I killed all his wolves. He didn’t attack me, although I was preparing to gather centaurs and bombard him with Luna’s combat magic in that case. So, we ran around; on days 125-126, I got two boxes with 15k experience and 40 elves, and with them, I entered the Conflux-Maximus (I didn’t have anything else besides centaurs, dwarves, and 1 snake). Luna performed well in the Conflux, and as a result, I had 4 angels and 19 elves. On day 131, I built a DD on the first try, so the plan was simple: jump on the green with 4 angels. I did this on day 132, taking Conflux 2 along the way and driving out the opponent, who still managed to steal 2 conservatories from my companion. :eek: Well, but the watchtower showed utopias, which I easily took with Resurrect and a strategic well. In the utopias, I got some magic and +6 general stats, so I chased the opponent and took his cities one by one, while also leveling up a dragon for the final battle, but the opponent made an unsuccessful run to his utopia, where I crushed him. In the final battle, without magic block, he simply had no chance.

Thank you for the game!

A very tense game. I had 2 rests, and the opponent did too. He didn't rest Luna. I suspected something would go wrong, but the layout looked simply wonderful—plenty of SP boosters and gold. In the end, I didn't take it. On 113, when it was already too late to take a rest, I saw that my path was blocked by the exit of a one-way portal, and there was still the native village. Meanwhile, Galtran appeared for the opponent. Yeah, right. In short, not very good news. However, the entrance to the one-way portal wasn't too far. I decided to jump Brissa into it and saw that there was a good road junction with two comps—my purple one and the green one. I realized there might be a quick encounter, because the opponent had entered from the opposite side of the square and had been killing his own comps since week 1. Regardless, there was nowhere else to go; at home, I could have used Luna to smash gold objects, but what would I do with them without an army? I went and quickly killed the purple comp on 132, then turned toward the green one. There I saw the orange village, which my opponent had been killing, so it became clear where the contact would happen. I took him in a chain, killing the level 5 Daremif from the comp's prison with arrows. Two parts of the army were killing the green and pink comps. That's when the opponent finally arrived and took one of the hives I planned to take. Fortunately, Luna had smashed enough gold objects that I ventured into a "spoon war." The spoon war was very successful for me, although I wasted 2 birds taking the hive before maxing out so the opponent wouldn't get it. But the result of the battle was that the opponent lost 3 turns chasing me (although he took the box behind the hydras; I don't know what that gave him). In the meantime, I moved my boat out of the combat zone, took the level 1 con, and ran into a treasure toward the pink comp. And only at the end of the 2nd week did I start building the MG; I decided to build it in the confluence after all. I built DD quite quickly, which allowed Luna to jump around like crazy. I immediately took the opponent's main, where I saw there was no TP or DD, but there were flight and resurrect. And I even managed to jump out of there so he wouldn't cover me. That's exactly what happened; he spent 2 turns taking back the main, which gave me time to rebuild TP (I bargained for a bunch of scrolls with 3 resources each in the artifact market), and on the day he took back the village, I got my TP. I stocked up, gathered the army using TP, and doubled my mana. I attacked the opponent. There was no magic block, so I killed his entire army with "teapots," although in response, he threw a teapot before fleeing, and I didn't have time to resurrect the angels. I was left with 1 angel and 21 boats. Bad, because it was 141; he hit-and-ran me and left me with 10 boats, but he still fled. I took back his main, where I saw that DD had been rebuilt. Well, without TP, he would have struggled. So in 2 turns, I simply restored the army, pumped Ainain for control, and took back his Castle with the stable, then jumped Luna to where there were 3 heroes. Galtran was regenerating mana there starting from 8 mana. The second finale was already without any losses on my part.

Thanks for the game!

Please schedule a time for the game.

I gave up the Castle and color for 4200. Nimbus arrived, and I was initially leveling him up to take all this good stuff. Everything was fine until the beginning of week 2. Then I realized that, firstly, I was stuck in a one-way situation (the exit was, unfortunately, in that direction), and secondly, I was running into micro-traps in Barbascelo. I broke through the 6k defense, and there was a Conflux. But I did it on turn 125. I had 14 Angels, and my last hope was on Utopias. The opponent jumped in with an Ass in a one-way situation, I killed it, and realized that the opponent had already been where the exit was. However, I couldn't find the entrance. I tried to run to the green area, but in week 3, he managed to drive Valeska away with 3 Angels (I bought 2). I took 2 Utopias on 132 and 133 (a 2 and a max) and got just two shields and two breastplates there. No control, nothing. In the Conflux, I was rebuilding control, and then the opponent came and took my main. That's how I lost with 16 Angels.

Thank you for the game!

After the previous loss, I wasn't really in the mood to play, so I just picked the first generated map because I had decent heroes, the possibility of Necropolis, and Necropolis town in the starting zone. Everything looked fine, Tamika had Logistics, Boots, and Expert Necromancy, until Dessia came and ruined everything by running in and taking the Griffin Conservatory near the Tavern. I tried to attack Solmyr with a Chalice and +3 SP (I had 7 Power in total), but my opponent cast Mass Haste and showed that on the next turn he would take my main town, and a turn later - the Necropolis town where I was building a Mage Guild. As the fog of war revealed, my opponent simply rushed me. Given enough time, I could have gathered enough resources and he wouldn't have had a chance. I probably wouldn't have relied solely on Dessia like my opponent did. But apparently I still need to train and train my skill.

Thanks for the game and good luck going forward!
