Loi (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def Wlk777 (blue, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre), 2SM4d(3),127
The road to one secondary skill was blocked by a cartographer's guard; on the second, I broke through to an adjacent zone of the castle, where a miracle appeared in the form of 4 Griffin Conservatory-trong :) — all within movement range. Anyway, after 127 I lost 200+ Troglodytes, all my backup — but in return, with 6 angels, I leveled Mass Slow and was on the verge of a breakthrough in front of two max-level Griffin Conservatories. But then my opponent finally conceded, and didn't take auto.
And from the looks of it — it could have turned out very interesting!
Thanks for the game!

Confirmed, thank you for the game.

I confirm. The most interesting part is that the situation allowed me to put up some resistance against those 14 angels at the beginning of week 3. I had a maxed Griffin Conservatory and another one of unknown size, Behemoths appeared in a secondary town and there was an external dwelling with them, I had Mass Slow, 2 maxed Naga Banks nearby... but... I needed composure, precision, or a bit of luck in the form of no unwanted morale from neutrals... I ended up having neither one nor the other for some reason. I kept making silly mistakes. It started with my main hero going the wrong way on day 1 — I went to the ГО instead of the secondary town. By the end of the week, it was a rush: I had to grab the external dwelling with bears and find resources somewhere for uniques. In the panic, I went into the Cyclops dwelling, and of course I got wiped there :( — the first auto-combat kindly provided by my opponent. I did manage to find resources for uniques in the castle somehow, and took the external dwelling with bears, but the only available secondary town was blocked by a horde of Pegasi guarding a Pandora's box... On week 2, I went into the Griffin Conservatory without scouting, relying on Max Mass Slow — another wipe, the second auto-combat... :( . Along the way, I stupidly lost a bear trying to raid a Dwarf dwelling with 15 Dwarves using a bog with 18 Grand Elves and that bear. An easy task for me, especially on Barbarian land — I got careless, and the Dwarves, who procced morale twice, killed the Behemoth (((( :( By then I was nervous. Without serious cover, I attacked that horde of Pegasi guarding the Pandora's box (10,000 gold) and the secondary town. In the end, I had to finish the last ones with Elves in melee, losing about 15 Elves :eek: . Then, feeling upset, I for some reason went into a Naga Bank at 127 with 20 Grand Elves and Mass Slow, even though bears were already appearing in the secondary town anyway. There were 30 Nagas — of course, a wipe. And even if that hadn't happened, I doubt I could have done anything against 14 angels and a seriously leveled Shakti :confused: Thanks for the game.

In the first week, I focused on secondary and conservatory buildings. In the second week, I descended into the dungeon, acquired 2 hives, found artifacts, and obtained 2 Pandora's Boxes with 10,000 and 15,000 mushrooms. I hired dragons from a hidden location after two weeks and headed to my opponent, overcoming all obstacles. I collected another hive, took an empty secondary building from my opponent, and proceeded to their main castle. My opponent surrendered due to the strength of my army. As a result, Tazar reached level 19!
Thank you for the game!

In the first week, I focused on secondary and conservatory buildings. In the second week, I ventured into the dungeon, acquired 2 ulies, found artifacts, and obtained 2 Pandora's boxes with 10,000 and 15,000 mushrooms.

I collected another ulie, took an empty secondary building from my opponent, and proceeded to the main castle. My opponent surrendered due to the strength of my army.

Confirmed.

In the first week, I captured a secondary Castle, built creatures there, found many scrolls with level 5 spells, and decided to build Guilds. I also visited the Conservatory. In the second week, I developed Shafts, took several Pandoras, and Utopia. I found Angel Wings, captured another secondary Castle, and went to the Swamp lands, where I met Tazar. The opponent surrendered.
Thank you for the game, it was interesting!)))

I'm posting the confirmation.

Mizrael(Inferno, Pyre, Pyre) def Blackpoint(red, Tower, Aine, Astral) 2sm4d(3) 221

The start wasn't very rosy, but I upgraded the ballista quite quickly - it got easier after that. Very little money (respawn in the cellar), had to break a level 20 dwarf woman in week 1; I was trading one ifrit there, but at the critical moment I didn't wait and both fell - the start was slowed down, only my own secondary buildings helped. Result of the week - ifrits in the Stronghold, secondary is demons. Everything was slow after that; without logistics it would have been a crawl - no money, couldn't afford to take the medusa zone twice at once, didn't go in until I bought out the pits (checked with a scout, there were 6 per stack), 3 ifrits, 7 pits and 10 dogs broke her, only had to help a bit with magic. Didn't build any devils at all, only switched to demonology from week 3 - gogis and imps went to be melted down. Then the treasure zone (sandy, without logistics I would definitely have lost the horse): experience, boots, naga-bank and 30 crushers and monks each. Astral flies over ГО and lands by the Castle; I buy whoever is most needed and attack him with a dummy, bought back 3 ifrits and some devourers. Broke 2 Dragon Utopia, one had few parameters, but the second brought me a red orb. Then Astral happened to be nearby, came to take my secondary buildings - on my turn I take them back and sit there to accelerate. However, Astral attacks (although he knew about the orb when he pushed Aine): 3 anela, 70+ demons and 30 monks who moved outside the wall using tactics, +2 speed and 25-15 against 3-4 decided in favor of the demoness. Thanks for the game.

Against the "chupa-chups" (likely referring to a specific unit or strategy), there were no attacking parameters. Even the single Utopia turned out to be minimal and didn't provide anything for attack or defense....

SEM_56 (red, swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def Ahivog (blue, Stronghold, Gurnison, Gundura) 2sm4d(3) 135....
The distribution was good, I got a decent secondary item with 122 attack, I hid the basilisks, Tazar has earth, tactics, the opponent lost a couple of times, I offered him an auto-defeat, but then he lost again and decided not to continue, thanks for the game....

No luck at first...terrible respawn...elementals everywhere...anyway, thanks for the game!

There was no ГО, so I prepared for an early encounter. Troglodytes at 110, at 112 an external dwelling of Minotaurs. I went to the Dwarf dwelling, and it was behind a horde of Vases. No money, so I had to hit them, then the mini-Dwarf dwelling, Mages for the secondary Stronghold. I look, and my opponent has a native secondary. Aha, so he's possibly going for Gold Golems in the underground. I break myself, run to the Golems, which I didn't hit because of the rest before the encounter. At 117 I hit, there's a blue scout hero. Almost no Troglodytes left, but 9 Minotaurs. I sent the scout hero to the heavens, then Gosha with Liches and Vampires, followed by a scout hero with Skeletons. Surrender.
Thanks for the game.

I confirm, even though it was a secondary map, the resource spawn was poor... 9 minuses - GG.
Thank you for the game!

LeBron (red, Castle, Valkyrie, Peer) def. Outlaw (blue, Rampart, Kirya) 134 2cm4d(3)
The roads are slow, and the respawn points are long and empty; the treasures are also scarce...
My opponent has hidden wood and fighters at his respawn point, plus conscripts and access to a mega-treasure from his home respawn (my generator glitched badly and wasn't in my favor) :)
But I managed to catch him while he was rushing in that same mega-treasure :p
Thank you!

LeBron (красный, кастл, Валька, Пир) def Outlow (синий, рамп, Киря) 134 2см4д(3)

I confirm. He developed excellently; by the second day, he had dragons with their external dwelling, and at the start of the 3rd—8 angels, and then he stupidly exposed himself with just those 8 angels in a treasure zone. There were another 6 dragons and company on the way, and ahead was a KVozd and 2 Dragon Utopia with a 5x hat, +10all, and a sword+12.
A disappointing loss, but his own fault.
Thanks to Dima for the time spent!!!
