Confirmed, there were 3 stacks, I decided to play, but on turn 116 I saw that the lands were poor. On turn 117, I break through to neighboring territories, but they aren't great either, hence the defeat. Thanks for the game!!!

Vigo (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def marajan (blue, Fortress, Orin, Orin), 2sm4d(3), 124 A crazy spawn generated on the sun map with a hidden spot for fighters, mines, and 2 cats! I was even confused about which creatures to summon. But the Miner managed to get onto the grass through an adjacent tile, and by chance, it ended up near the enemy. It turned into a random rush, even though I had different plans... Thanks for the game.

Dubrovin Pavel (Red, Castle, Valeska, Mephala) def kien (Blue, Rampart, Kirr, Kirr), 2sm4d(3), 1.4.5.

After restarting, he found that the only road was blocked by 20-49 Corpse Griffons (for the Diplomat's Pendant). Fortunately, it was possible to bypass them; after 4 turns, he reached the road that split into the Garrison and the Stronghold's respawn point. Along the way, he took several Crypts and an Archer's Hut. Horse Stables in the Stronghold.

In the second week, he received 45 Orcs for about 70+ Basilisks with a Griffon stack, a secondary Stronghold, and took an Ogre Hut for 12 Griffon units. Also, he acquired a Minimal Hive.

In the third week, he took the Gold Mine in the treasury, 4-5 Hives (all Minimal and one Pre-Minimal), several Pandors for experience, and 20,000 gold. He also took 2 Angel Huts. He placed the Angel dwellings.

In the fourth week, he got a Maximal Hive, a Minimal Consulate, and Angel Wings. At this point, an unexpected opponent appeared through a snowy secondary Stronghold, because he almost believed that Andrey, as he said, had lost in 3-4 turns, but he was a little wary because he refused to share his saves, so he kept the chain going.

On 1.4.4, he breaks through, but doesn't have time to gather enough magic. On 1.4.5, Andrey attacks him in the Castle. If his 25+ units could fly, Andrey might have been able to take it, but the attempt failed, and my Castle held.

Thank you, Andrey, for the dynamic game!

Thanks to Andrey for the dynamic game!

Well, what can I say. A long break in his career clearly took its toll. He started normally, as they say. He was moving Kirrh around the territory. Suddenly, bam! He found a passage to the secondary town of the Tower. He went there with a hero and one gargoyle, and, oh glory to the heavens! the town was without a garrison. So, he ran, and he ran, and he stumbled upon a hidden elven lair! The first week ended with unicorns in the Citadel and a prefecture in the Tower. The second week, he got an enhanced Tomb Robber 4-5 (and not a single one was maxed out). He grabbed a hidden lair of genies. He took a hidden lair of unicorns. And another one. He thought - this should be a rush. A bit late, though. A weak one. But a rush. The opponent's hero had already accumulated 31 points in total according to the ratings (compared to my 21). Well, I thought, let's go. He took a tier 3 consultant. He planned a route through the water elementals. And on the 4th week, he went for it. So, he arrives at the town. And there was horror in the garrison. And that's how he lost. Thanks for the game. (A special success, I would say, was brought about by the fact that throughout the game, I complained about losses, terrible spawns, and almost hinted at loading saves. Pasha even called me a cheater, saying that I was deceiving him. That's it.)

Kluka (blue, Castle, Valeska, Valeska) def Gamer-Kirill (red, swamp, Bron, Grindan), 223.
Thanks for the game!

My opponent allowed me to take my time and calmly on 211, having bought up the growth, take the Dragon Utopia - a pre-max one near my castle. There I got a book of air and a crown +4/+4. With the money received, I upgraded archangels and went for the enemy, taking another Dragon Utopia along the way. Meanwhile, Kirill broke through ГО and deprived me of growth, but with DD, flight, exp. logistics, gloves, and boots, I quickly returned back.

scorp (red, Stronghold, Gurnisson, Gurnisson) def vbn (blue, Swamp, Tazar, Tazar) 2sm4d(3), 223

On the first: behemoths in the Castle + external dwelling of birds (at the cost of a cannon).
121 two more dwarf mines
122 8 ducks with a same-turn move for the cannon (from outside)
the opponent has an external dwelling of bulls!!! - fact
123 2 angels
124 +1 to speed and moved into the darkness to a secondary zone via off-road
125 scouting and part of the blue chain is visible, I stand before the guard at Tazik's respawn (for now)
126 I don't hit the scout (chain), but try to reach the castle - and there sits Taz without an army and I was half a cell short (the last move for an attack on the castle must be diagonal, but it can only go straight - cursed at this for a long time) and ... I am attacked in the field with mass slow (and even without it I would have taken heavy losses) myself without the book - left with only 11 birds and 3 wyverns
127 in the secondary zone (dungeon) a summoning portal with birds
132 I take 3 angels
Searching for treasure zones
134-137 4 Hives (total 37 ducks)
141 Dragon Utopia 1CD: +2 to speed, fire book, shield +4
143 Dragon Utopia 5 CD (where all birds were lost): shield +12/-3, +3 all, black sphere
146 in the second treasure zone +3 angels (now only 4) + speed boots with gloves and exp. logistics
until 212: +15 upgraded liches, 20 liches, all earth magic, entire 4th level, +2 Hives, red ball (for 7 magical dragons - they traded me orcs, a cannon and almost all liches), cloak of renunciation
213 TP home with 4 angels - I take breastplate +5 power, while scouts remained to finish off 2 Hives (had enough artifacts)
214 I hit ГО 50+ upgraded psychos, capture the capital - but troops were moved out in one turn, didn't want to risk and pass the army to a scout, since Taz could break into a secondary zone and then kill my army - I buy 52 upgraded lizards and TP back home - they didn't want to take the capital back, but passed the army further along the chain into the darkness

Tazar's parameters:
214 - 9 21 2 16
215 - 20 33 25 15 mine 18 28 17 14 - whether manually or with magic, I don't stand a chance, decided to collect the armor of the damned for the red ball (still didn't find the 4th art - it wasn't on the map) - second option is to catch him from a treasure zone without mana

222 - collected all castles, gathered army at castles (did not double mana) and upgraded wyverns, kill his scout
222 - Tazar takes the castle with wings, but doesn't attack and flies further
223 first took the castle and FB with a scout, since the blues knew about the existence of the red ball they didn't put arts on spell - I decided to fight with magic and guessed right:

Gurnisson 19 28 18 (101 mana, 4 explosions of 2400): 4 angels, 68 upgraded wyverns, 8 grey wolves, 34 thunder birds, 68 upgraded lizards, 36 upgraded wolves, 28 orcs (+2 to speed, earth sphere)

Tazar 25 38 15 (220 mana): 56 wyverns, 13 upgraded bulls, 9 bulls, 32 upgraded dragonflies, 22 upgraded basilisks, 5 hydras, 93 gnolls (+1 to speed, only all water magic, no haste or explosion)

Thanks for the game!

I confirm.

It happened. I really gave the opponent way too much time without planning it at all. At 124, I broke Grinya's maximum conserve with expert earth and decided that life was great.... but the treasure was veeeery far away. Then, as luck would have it, no magic was given; it got to the point where I started building up the Mages' Guild, but then Valka arrived after the Dragon Utopia. I ran away from her, ran into his castle, and valiantly perished in it.

He was running around, looking for ways to approach his opponent, but couldn't find any openings, so he went through the Grove of Order, and that was it. Thanks for the game!

Ran around looking for approaches to the opponent, never found any openings, went through GO and that was it =) thanks for the game!

Yeah. Agreed to play without restarts — it was already late.
On the first, horses in the citadel. On the third day, I could have captured a secondary in parallel with the opponent... but a block of archers... so I never went back there.
Not a single artifact for attack, defense, knowledge, not a single artifact at all. Only went after them — reds break 20-49 phantom dragons from my side and the same number of nagas from theirs :smile04: well, then against stats 2 times higher and 6 angels.....
Thanks for the game.
