numOne (red, Citadel, Gurnisson, Gurnisson) def Blacpoint (blue, Castle, Valeska, Valeska) 2sm4d(3), 126

Thanks!

In short, the rush didn't work. The opponent had a strategy and already had 5 angels on level 125 + cyclops.
Mistakes: I took Wisdom as the 3rd level skill; I think it's not necessary to take it so early; it should be taken at higher levels, IMO. That way, I would have gotten a different skill tree, maybe something useful. As a result, I had to max out Morale, but nothing worthwhile came of it.
I abandoned the tactic of + to ranged attack, but it hardly played a role anymore.
In general, numOne showed an excellent result.
Thanks for the game. :D

Kluka (red, swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def Cyb (blue, castle, Valeska, Valeska) 2sm4d(3) 146

I don't want to correct anything; I'm writing it as I wrote it during the game.

The respawn is wonderful — two conservatories (minimum and Trog and Gr.), an external dwelling of basilisks, a lookout tower, boots of speed. But all the gold is guarded by shooters, and two secondary mines are covered in snow.
111-112. Not enough money — no resources to hire wyverns; there are blocks on the roads (harpies, etc.) — all the gnolls get wasted. Misclick when hiring the 4th hero (there was one in the tavern with +350 gold, but I hired another).
113. Crypt on the rags. Tazar gets Literacy :(
114. Another crypt on the rags. I build wyverns.
115. I lose 1 wyvern due to a misclick, the opponent gives auto.
115 again. Tazar in boots with basic Earth :)
117. Wyverns and bulls (without basilisks and their external dwelling) in the citadel, 4500 gold remaining. I found a passage to the grassland near the GO. Tazar has expert Earth with a Slow scroll, no spell book.

122. I take wyverns, lizards, and a few gorgons. I break through to the grassland.
123. I take the supply yard, and I see a passage next to the road leading to the enemy, where a Deemer with a horde of shooters is located near a crypt. Tazar builds a Mage Guild, buys a spell book, but doesn't refill mana (only 14 mana total). The enemy disappears into the darkness.
124. Dwarf dwellings at 15. I transfer the entire army from the swamp to Tazar.
125. Tazar obediently sits down to refill mana; another conservatory is found.
127. 1-6 in the citadel and 1-3 in the fort. Bronhild breaks through a passage to my secondary hero.

131. I take the conservatory — minimum. I forgot to free the 7th stack for the Angel :( had to say goodbye to 11 Water Elementals. I go home through the second passage via the swamp. Blue (Bronhild with 1 Angel) takes my supply yard :( I should have at least exchanged resources while there were two markets.
132. I take the maximum conservatory near the main town, losing 2 wyverns due to my unforgivable stupidity.
133. Minimum conservatory. I find a sawmill :) and another external dwelling of basilisks on my respawn.
134. I retake my supply yard and chase off Bronhild and his Angel with my 1 Angel.
135. Tazar silently sits in the supply yard to refill mana. Bronhild kills another of my scouts.
136. I break through the GO (84 psychos). I get the First Aid skill and prepare to transfer the tent, but Bronhild with his Angel kills another of my scouts and breaks into my respawn.
137. I attacked the enemy in the castle. The castle played its role, and I retreated.

***
Here are the stats:
Tazar lvl 14, expert: Armorer, Literacy, Water, Earth, Air, Basic First Aid (no tent). 4-19-7-(71), +1 luck and +1 health.
6 Angels - 6 Wyverns - 10 Bulls - 16 Basilisks - 21 Gorgons - 26 Ice Elementals - 68 Lizardmen,
in the spell book: all needed level 1 spells and Weakness.

Valeska lvl 13, expert: Leadership, Archery, Wisdom, Estates, Advanced Air. 7-8-3-3, +1 to spell damage and to spell duration.
7 Champions - 7 Wyverns - 22 Griffin Veterans - 15 Crusaders - 25 Monks - 91 Marksmen - 78 Pikemen,
in the spell book (important ones): Haste, Dispel, Lightning Bolt, and Precision.

After the battle, 1 Champion, 12 Monks, 25 Marksmen, 14 Crusaders, and 47 Pikemen survived.

***

14*. After losing the army, Tazar turned into... a mage with Lightning Bolt for 225 (had I built it earlier, maybe I would have won that battle :() I run around the enemy respawn and kill scouts.
146. I gather everything I can and capture the enemy castle, which has 5*3 Griffin Veterans, 4 Lizardmen, and a Pikeman. There, a Mage Guild level 4 with Town Portal is built. I have expert Earth, and the opponent doesn't. The opponent surrenders with this motivation.

P.S. I didn't have Wisdom, but he didn't know :)

Thanks for the game!

SEM_56 (red, Castle, Valessa, Valessa) def Ahivog (blue, Rampart, Kirr, Kirr) 2sm4d(3), 147
Took all the rest and the fast roads spawned perfectly...
111-117 initially went the wrong way, ran into a Guarded Object (ГО)...
Then uncovered a lookout, saw my native secondary hero, took 4 crypts (2 with scouts). Horses in the citadel on weeks 1,2,4, in the secondary hero's citadel weeks 1,2...
121-127 the chain became combat-ready and we farmed like crazy...
Valya took a Pandora's box for 5,000 experience, immediately got Expert Earth, Slow as usual nowhere to be found. Also a native secondary hero at the end of the week, Valya has Log, Shield +6..
131-137 Valya takes 2 max Medusa sheds, a Dwarf cottage. Torosar with Advanced Tactics, takes a stack of horses near the secondary hero for 125 Orc Chieftains, also gets Log and Earth. I take the secondary hero Sashko, a Pandora's box for 5,000 gold for 25 Vivi...
141-147 I take a max Griffin Conservatory, found Slow only in the enemy's secondary hero guild, thanks a lot...
I take troops, 23 Champions, 120 Marksmen, 50 Crusaders and go to the treasure zone, stats are skyrocketing...
Sanek doesn't see a future, lost his troops, has no Town Portal, decided not to continue, thanks for the game!!

Captain (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def HeadHunter (blue, Rampart, Kirr, Kirr) 2sm4d, 127

A template with villages without forts, but it's still fun to play.
Shakti got a lot of chests, found boots and gloves, and has fast roads.
Thanks for the game!

Captain (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def HeadHunter (blue, Rampart, Kirr, Kirr) 2sm4d, 127

Confirmed.
Ivor with elves and centaurs didn't make it home in time.
Thank you for the game.

Vigo (red, Conflux, random, Gindan, Grindan) def CastleGAZ (blue, Castle, Kaitlin, Christian) 2SM4d(3) 136

took too long to report.

Kluka (red, swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def Cyb (blue, castle, Valeska, Valeska) 2sm4d(3) 146

Thank you for the game!

It was a good game, thank you.

Magneto (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def ~no1 knows me~ (blue, Rampart, Mephala, Mephala), 2sm4d(3), 144.
Spawned on the surface. Shakti had only 1 stack of troglodytes, but decided to wait until the third day. After 3 days, scouted the passages to two secondary towns: one on swamp, the other in Dungeon. Hoping for a native town, decided to continue playing. But expectations were not met — it was Necropolis.:( There is also a path through rough terrain to a mud respawn adjacent to blue, I head there — it's untouched. Castle was placed very far away along a winding road, but it was native. There is a cons 2-4. I level earth magic to expert and enter — a level 3. We scuffled with blue with starter troops: 3-2 in my favor:) , Mephala did not engage. On the native respawn there are 2 more unclaimed cons — a maximum level and a level 2 (as it turned out). I went and cleared them, upgraded my troops, and headed to blue. I have advanced ballistics in case of a tight defense, but the castle has 2 unicorns, about a dozen dwarves, and a couple of centaurs — I take it without trouble. Stayed the night in Rampart. Mephala returns, I attack her on 144 and kill her.
Thanks for the game.

Magneto (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def ~no1 knows me~ (blue, Rampart, Mephala, Mephala), 2sm4d(3), 144.

Confirmed.
The native spawn was very poor... and I also didn't find an exit to the Dungeon... and I didn't risk going into the swamp with a huge penalty...
Thanks for the game!

Kluka (red, Castle, Valeska, Valeska) def Gr1zl1 (blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) 2sm4d(3) 132

Jubilee 50th online game :)

Gold gave enough for angels on the first; on turn 127 I stood in front of the opponent's castle, not letting him exit. On turn 132 the opponent attacked, both of us made many mistakes in the battle; in the end I surrendered with pikemen and knights (the opponent had a few eyes and medusas left), but my situation was better — the opponent surrenders.

Thanks for the game!

It seems like Rampart had a bad start.
Thank you for the game.
