Posts from Reports on victories and defeats in online games of Heroes of Might and Magic V.
What can I say? To be honest, I'm not sure I won; it was our terrible connection that won! PROTON plays great, but he was just tired. Before the main battle, the game crashed, and we couldn't reload (even though we tried many times). After discussing it, we decided to award me the victory because a draw didn't suit either of us.
Igor916 (Stronghold, Keegan) def. Lok1978 (Necropolis) with the "Very Big Smile" template, no underground.
I searched for him all over the map, which was very large. When I found him, I killed all his troops, and he fled. He bought more troops and attacked me, and we did this twice until I got close to his castle. He was constantly casting "Repair" on himself, which broke all my troops except for the Centaurs.
Overall, I enjoyed it. I could have won earlier, but it was my own fault that I couldn't find his castle before the population started and I passed by it.
Thank you for the game.
Confirmed, I lost. Regarding winning faster, I'm not sure, because I surrendered because I wanted to sleep. Remember, Igor.
Fashionable Tournament
immortal (Elves, Anwen, Red) defeated Moz (Humans, Vittorio, Blue) on Letos, week 5 or 6.
Well, what can I say? :) I was lucky in everything! With the hero Naadir, right next to the Castle, there was an artifact shop and a guild (Subjugation, Phantom, and Phoenix). My opponent was having a harder time – he wrote that he didn't get anything interesting. I cleared the starting area – defeating 26 Earth Elementals on day 4, I took the Abandoned Mine (Gold). On the 3rd week, I took the area with the Mercury Mine, and on the 4th-5th week, the area with the Gold Mine – 2 Groves + 2 Elemental Shrines + 2 Witch Huts (almost all maxed out!). I leveled up to 20 and decided to return to the Castle for spells. Then Igor with Kifrah appeared! He hung out in the area with the Mercury Mine and then returned to his own area, I guess. I spent some time in the Main Town and cleared the path to the Silver and Emerald Mines. After buying artifacts from the 2nd month and troops, I went to the Battle Town (it was the end of the 6th week), and Igor appeared again with a decent army led by 5 Black Dragons. He approached me closely. I bought the remaining troops from the 2-3-1 for 6 weeks, except for Dragons and Spectres (I didn't take the 7th-week increase!), and attacked with an army of approximately 700+ Alt. Skeletons / 140 Nightwraith Zombies / 20+20 Alt. Spectres / 43 Grade Vampires / 31 Grade Liches / 17 Messengers! In the final battle, I used Phoenix + Resurrection, and once used Phantom Skeletons, but it failed – the opponent killed it with Meteor. That's all!
Naadir, level 22 (7-18-21-14), artifacts: Marquel's Skull, Unicorn Bow, Ice Shield, Earth Shield 50%, Anti-Magic Boots, Rune Harness, +20% Initiative Ring, Dragon Ring.

Vip.rus (elves, Ossir) def / Igrok_v_geroev (humans, Dugal) - Maze, 3-3-6
Once again, the elves turned out to be more aggressive than the humans. In terms of gameplay: both players spent 2.5 months leveling up, hoarding resources in the treasury. Igrok started earlier, so by the time of the battle, he had a higher level and better stats overall. Defense of 41:eek: Before the battle, in the tavern, they said I didn't stand a chance, and I was a bit discouraged. But during the battle, it turned out that things weren't as bad as they seemed. The paladins took down a few horses and then gradually died. The archers, with an initiative of 13, managed to shoot, eliminating almost all of the Archangels. Then, a nasty ballista finished them off. When it came to my hero's turn, I unleashed a barrage of arrows charged with Earth Shock. It was brutal!!! Many humans died))) In general, I started to gain the upper hand, and then Dugal summoned about 70 fire elementals and a phoenix to help. The elementals didn't help him much, but the phoenix killed a lot of my warriors and almost evened the playing field. But I finished off almost everyone with Chaos magic. Dugal resurrected a group of monks and retreated home, leaving me with about 30 units and a bunch of horses. My morale/luck ratio of 3/5 helped me a lot))) My opponent, thanks to the Cloak of Shadow, had 0/0. Without hesitation, I headed towards my opponent's castle, which was nearby, and finished him off there, amidst indignant cries like "damn elves":D Thanks for the game!

Well, what can I say? :) I was lucky in everything! With the hero Naadir, right next to the castle, there was an artifact shop and a guild (Subjugation, Phantom, and Phoenix). My opponent was having a harder time – he wrote that he didn't get anything interesting. I cleared the starting area – defeating 26 Earth Elementals on day 4, I took the abandoned shack (Gold), on the 3rd week – the area with the Mercury Mine, and on the 4th-5th week, the area with the Gold Mine – 2 groves + 2 elemental repositories + 2 witch repositories (almost all maxed out!). I leveled up to 20 and decided to return to the castle for spells. Then Igor appeared with Kifrah! He hung out at the area with the Mercury Mine and then returned to his own castle, apparently. I spent some time in the main town and cleared a path to the silver and emerald mines. After buying artifacts from the 2nd month and troops, I went to the battlefield (it was the end of the 6th week), and Igor appeared again with a decent army led by 5 Black Dragons. He approached me closely. I bought the remaining troops from weeks 2-3-1, except for dragons and specters (I didn't take the week 7 bonus!), and attacked with an army of approximately 700+ alt. skeletons / 140 negre zombies / 20+20 alt. specters / 43 grade vampires / 31 grade liches / 17 heralds!
In the final battle, I used Phoenix + Raise Dead, and Phantom Skeletal once, but it failed because the opponent killed it with Meteor. That's it!

Thanks for the game!
I fully confirm.
Well done!
Thanks for the game
He was doing great. In the second week, he experienced a setback. Apparently, the opponent was very upset by this fact, as he fell far behind in development. In the beginning of the second week, I took a scroll with the Berserk spell from the neutrals, and after that, it all went downhill for him! In the third week, our interests crossed, and in the fourth week, I took the Utopia, where I received the Tome of Dark Magic. On the next turn, the final battle took place. The opponent died from the very first cast! Thank you for the game.

We were playing, and then we received the news that the opponent had surrendered on neutral ground. That's when we finished the game; the situation was roughly equal in terms of gameplay! Thanks for the game.

As part of the "Everyone Gets What They Deserve" tournament.
Igor_HW (Sylvan, Ossir) lost to KillAndAction (Academy, Narhiz) 2-1-2. The map was very large and had no underground areas.
From the start, I didn't get Nura, Orah, or Hafiz. So, I developed Narhiz.
On day 10, I took a gold mine. I broke into the neighboring zones very late, on day 13. Before that, I lost all my gremlins (120 tumblers and 20 golems) in the gargoyle stronghold.
On day 14, I built a capital and level 1-5 creatures. In the third week, I built level 6-7 creatures and a castle (I only grabbed chests for gold), cleared a couple of zones (they were very compact), and considered going for the treasure.
But, seeing a place to jump into the opponent's starting zone, I decided to attack at the end of the fourth week, taking level 1-5 creatures (although I didn't have enough money for the gremlins) and researching level 5 spells, along with the library (and there was a Phoenix))).
On day 7, I didn't have time to attack the city; I was short by 2 squares.
On the second day of the fifth week, Osya, level 17, attacked me (I was level 16).
As a result of the battle, I had 26 black tumblers left, and Osya had 4 alternate druids and 1 Ossa, I think.

Thanks for the game.
Yes, the game was frustrating. My progress was going very well. I continued to develop my strategy. And then, my opponent launched an attack right at my castle. :mad: All my troops were in the castle, and my hero was very far away. My opponent left me with no choice but to attack him. Because it was either me or him taking my castle where all my troops were. :confused: And I couldn't transfer them because he positioned himself right next to the castle. :rolleyes: In the end, I attacked. At the beginning of the battle, everything was going well, and I thought I had it in the bag. I completely defeated him. He only had 10 archers left. He had only 40 gold remaining. And then, luck turned against me. :mad: When he approached and killed all the archers. The odds suddenly changed. Despite everything, I thought I could defeat him. But I fell just short. I retreated to the castle. But I didn't have enough time to recover. So, I immediately used "Call for Reinforcements" and attacked the castle. In the end, I lost... :smile32:
Thank you for the game... :smile02:

I confirm, I surrendered because I didn't see the point in continuing the game. I was playing as a mage, and they only gave me magic at level 20, which was useless.
