OUTLAW(red,Inferno,Pir,Pir) def StickyFingaz(blue,Swamp,Tazar,Tazar), 2SM4d(3), 1-2-7
Start in the basement. On the first day, 2 demon external dwellings are spotted, one is painted + an imp external dwelling. Pandora is near the city and a hive. 3 forks—to ГО, to the teleport, and a road to the 2nd secondary.
112-Pir breaks through the same outer guard of the teleport and encounters 20-49 storms on the other side; turnaround, scout breaks the 2nd imp external dwelling.
113-breaking through to my own secondary. 114-painting Inferno, scout opens up visibility—conserve, hive, 50% earth buffs and a treasure zone, in which there is a Dragon Utopia nearby and a hive with chests.
115-maneuvers to collect money for building, Pir jumps to the teleport after the storms. Severe lack of funds.... 116-Pir spends the night in the capital on ifrits, purchase of the 5th scout. 117-breaking through to the grass via the teleport, there I spot a Dragon Utopia near the road, a prison, a couple of artifacts. Home-pits with ifrits in the Stronghold.
121-6th scout, painting Castle, spending the night before the stables with a medusa nest. 122-purchase of the 7th hero, a 2nd conserve is spotted near the Castle, broke through the medusa nest, visited the stables, collected +1 all and +1/+1 magic/knowledge.
123-hive(4), home+1,000. 124-ifrit grade, Pandora for 10K exp, +1,000 in secondary. The opponent also got their own secondary. 125-maneuvers with scouts, Pir goes to the second hive and conserve. 126-shield+4, hive(6), placed demons in the secondary. 127-conserve(3), home-castle, Pir on ifrits spends the night before neutrals, intending to crash into Castle toward the second conserve...
Opponent surrenders... Although the autopsy showed an excellent treasure zone in the swamps near Tazar, +8 all behind stompers, several hives, a Dragon Utopia at their own secondary..... Apparently, the lack of funds took its toll... Thanks for the game Slava!!!

I really enjoyed myself here)))
On 111, a cloak of renunciation is spotted behind necro-horses (excellent bonus for Tazar), an external dwelling of wisps, which the ГГ is heading toward. By the end of the week, I painted lizard and wisp external dwellings with buyouts, home-1-6 with a Stronghold. Tazar has Log and Air.
On the second—Rampart is painted; it turns out the opponent's native faction is Inferno... Wood and horse external dwellings are painted, conserves(2-4) found, Dragon Utopia right nearby, hive(8) broken, home-castle, in Rampart-1-6 in the fort. There are no fast paths to the opponent, so I relax, enjoying watching air for exp. In the treasure zones there are such clusters of stars that my mouth is watering...
On the 3rd, 3 conserves(2+2+2) broken, hive(6), Pandora(10k exp), collected +3 shield and +3/+3 magic/knowledge. Tazar levels up very consistently throughout the game, taking "chocolate" skills: log, air, attack, tactics, earth. Home added +1,000, in Rampart—growth for wood own.
141-Dragon Utopia(2)—red orb, shield+5, boots of levitation). Then I work in the underground treasure zone, there is another Dragon Utopia(3)—air book, sword+12, handcuffs and junk... A couple of boxes(exp+20 vamps), a couple of hives, collected +6 all, boots. Home-grade wisps, lizards. In Rampart—1-6 with a castle.
At the start of the 5th week, breaking back home, grading bulls, elves. On 212 I break through ГО from my side of the metro. On 213 I attack Pir who is holed up in their own capital....
Thanks for the game!!!

Loi(blue,ramp,Ivor,Ivor)def Wlk777(red,fort,Vistan,Vistan) 2sm4d(3) 214
A very slow-paced game, at least for me — snipers and monks on three roads. On the first one — a Centaur hutch, three — Dwarves, horses in the Citadel, Ivor level 3, got a wood mine only on day 117. Then for half a week I was planning a route to take the Dragon hutch on day 127 and place them — but due to real life I forgot to use my scout to pick up a pile of Dragonblood crystals on GM2, duh... At the end of week two they hit GO, I holed up at home — they left. Took my time getting two secondary heroes — they came again — and for at least a week and a half we stood opposite each other; the red player's stats were much higher — I just sat there, slowly hoarding resources (higher income), trying as best I could to break his supply chains from home, while also killing off Vistan's group of Serpents along the way...
When he had completely wiped out my scouts, I set up a supply chain — by that time I had saved up a fair amount of resources and attacked while his reinforcements were absent. In the FB on Tactics [cement] 75 Grands (also 15 Horsemen, 110+ Centaurs, 110+ Dwarves, 19 Wood Elves, 31 Pegasi — all upgraded, 2 Green Dragons), Lizard blocker — after a couple of rounds the red player surrendered and congratulated me on the victory.
Thanks for the game!

That’s what happened. I don’t really want to comment on this, I’m ashamed of how badly I played; I played like a noob, even though I broke the game on turn 131 (and could have broken it on turn 127 if the roads weren’t so slow). There was only one road to the Grail of Order, and I couldn’t find any other decent roads, even off-road. I’ll also criticize my opponent: taking a pack of Draconians behind a group of goats only on the third week is noobish, sorry. A shameful game. Thank you for the game, I guess :confused:
P.S. Vistan is awesome :cool:

I really had my fun here)))
On 111, the Cloak of Renunciation behind the necro-horses is spotted (excellent bonus for Tazar), and a same-faction external dwelling for weevils, which GG is heading towards. By the end of the week, I've painted the lizard and weevil external dwellings with buyouts, houses-1-6 with Stronghold. Tazar has Logy and Air.
On the second, Rampart is painted; it turns out the opponent has native Inferno... Wood elf and horse external dwellings are painted, cons(2-4) found, Dragon Utopia nearby, hive breached(8), houses-Castle, in Rampart-1-4 in the fort. There are no fast paths to the opponent, so I relax, enjoying the view of Air on exp. In treasure zones there are such clusters of stars that my mouth is watering...
On the 3rd, 3 cons(2+2+2) breached, hive(6), Pandora(10k exp), +3 shield and +3/+3 magic/knowledge reclaimed. Tazar levels up very steadily throughout the game, taking chocolate skills: logy, air, attack, tactics, earth. Houses added +1.000, in Rampart - growth for wood elves.
141-Dragon Utopia(2)-red orb, shield+5, boots of levitation). Then I operate in the underground treasure zone, there's another Dragon Utopia(3)-air book, sword+12, handcuffs and junk... A couple of boxes(exp+20 vamps), a couple of hives, reclaimed +6 all, boots. Houses-grade weevils, lizards. In Rampart - 1-6 with Castle.
At the start of the 5th week, one house is broken, bulls and elves graded. On 212 I breach ГО from my side of the metro. On 213 I attack Pir, who is entrenched in her capital....
Thanks for the game!!!

PReDS (red, barbarian, Crag, Crag) def SEM 56 (blue, swamp, Vistat, Vistan), 2sm4d(3), 147.
Started after 2 rests from blue. Start very scarce: Crag has a dozen and a half goblins and that's it. I cast Scouting, see a passage to a dirt path leading to a secondary hero behind many gargoyles, not far from it a passage to a treasure zone on native ground and immediately an angel external dwelling in it, the swamp secondary is guarded by many elves - bad, there's a Dragon Utopia on a respawn - good, an ogre external dwelling behind the mages - again not great. After buying the native hero, building wolves, the army is 40+ goblins and a dozen and a half hounds + a machinegun from Arlash. I decide: if I break through the gargoyles on 111 - I play, if not - a rest. I didn't buy a second hero with an army because the road was blocked by many flies and with non-native troops I wouldn't have reached the gargoyles over the rocks. The gargoyles' morale was decent; at one point 30+ goblins remained against three stacks of 8 gargoyles, my hope in the machinegun paid off - the gargoyles attacked it, the goblins skipped next to it and waited until 5-6 were left in the stack, then finished them off. I crawled out with 20+ goblins. Secondary hero - Necromancer; on the first turn with birds and the machinegun I beat off what I could: in the secondary there's a guild with a book for Crag, a market; at home a market, +1000 and 1-3,5,7 in the citadel. Crag level 3, took Earth magic. Lousy, but blue still has 1 castle.
On 121 I loot a couple of mills, bears kill flies on the road, there are a couple more chests there, Marusya grabs a Log. Crag takes a gnome dwelling for 20 with many. Then I broke through a passage to the sandy treasure zone, sent a scout hero there for reconnaissance, with Crag took the angel external dwelling and discovered that the main part was blocked by many Efreeti. By the end of the second day I explored the corner I got, there's a Dragon Fly Hive, killed some golems for some junk, took an Imp dwelling for 200 and a fight - when I attacked, I thought maybe I should surrender right away :) : 7 Rocs, 2 Harpies and a machinegun, Crag with advanced Armorer, mana for one spell with basic Earth magic against 90+ Nomads. Lost 5 Rocs and the machinegun - Crag got a Log! On 131 I take a Dragon Fly Hive for 8. I'm going after many Efreeti already, since the scout in the sandbox didn't reveal anything interesting, with 2 bears, 1+1 dog, 2 angels, 1+1 dog, 2 bears, no mana. Managed to save the angels, only one bear survived. In the mercenary camp there are some losers. But in the next one, behind the dogs - 3 Rocs. Finally I get out of this gorge and see Dragon Fly Hives, Dragon Fly Hives, Dragon Fly Hives and 2 Dragon Utopias. Took a few Dragon Fly Hives, a quest artifact for a horde of Medusas (Seer 2 hexes from the starting point, right on the road), a couple of preserves and rushed home - time to take the Dragon Utopias, 0 mana, and Marik just captured the +4 Hat and there's a spring near the castle. Also built +1 Attack, turned in the artifact - 20K exp. With expert Logistics I ran fast enough. On 141 take +2 to All Stats and another Dragon Fly Hive behind a crowd of Genies, +2 Attack/Defense for Gorgons - the first stat artifacts. 142 - Dragon Fly Hive, Shackles of War, overnight at a Dragon Utopia. 143 with brought many Ogres I go into the Dragon Utopia: 5 angels, almost 30 Wyverns, 12 many Ogres, single goblins. Level 3 - for 8 Ogres and singles got +6 to All Stats, Sphere of Vulnerability (just right for the 2 remaining ones), Book of Fire (expert Fire). Next max-level one, with +6 to All Stats and Sphere I lose the remaining Ogres and singles - Hat of the Fifth, +5 to All Stats, Sphere of Inhibition and junk. The last Dragon Utopia in the treasure zone - some nonsense and Flight to the Dragon Utopia on the respawn (got Air in the last slot, but only basic), noticed blue's movements near the GO. On my 145 blue hits a double GO and takes the starting one, killing the weekly growth there - lots of meat, no stats. 146 - I take the Dragon Utopia on the respawn with a +12 Hat and Dimension Door to the well to refill mana (I already drank from the spring on both sides). Vistan attacks Crag, slows everyone down, I buy peace since I was overnighting in +6 to All Stats without the Hat of the Fifth - hard to take down 37 many Bulls by hand. Vistan runs toward the swamp secondary, kills the scout hero with Gnolls and turns toward the Library. On 147 Marik with expert Logistics takes the starting castle guarded by Rosik with 1+1+1+1 flies, losing the dogs. Crag is bought out in the swamp castle, takes 17 many Basilisks there with a tent, visits the Library himself, and I attack with the Sphere of Vulnerability equipped (turns out there was even a resistance artifact), Hat of the Fifth, I still don't equip the Shackles of War. In the first round I messed up by sending an Imp into many Wyverns instead of the Bulls, of which there were 37 (double build and external dwelling). They barely dealt damage, but their ability crushed me. Stats more than double and Imp almost 2000 stronger won.
Thanks for the game.

PReDS(red, barb, Craig, Craig) def SEM 56(blue, swamp, Vistat, Vistan), 2sm4d(3), 147. Thanks for the game.

It happened that the lands were very stretched out; it took almost a week along the fastest roads just to reach my own secondary town, while the opponent had everything compact. In such a layout, I might have arrived by 134, but the hives are too far away and only Vistan can break through the guards, resulting in a colossal loss of tempo. And the opponent also had 4 Dragon Utopia, thanks for the game!!!

Everything turned out quite simple; with an outstanding max cons of 4 angels by 127 almost without magic, thanks for the game!!!

SEM_56 (blue, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor) def Kluka (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) 2sm4d(3), 147

That was a game.

We picked all the rests, I even took an extra rest on the first day. In the end, the layout spawned at the bottom, with fast roads; the only road past the ГО goes through the opponent's native secondary hero's respawn into the treasure zone, and was blocked by 5-9 gray behemoths, behind which an external dragon dwelling was visible. The secondary hero itself was a 3-day off-road journey from this road, and I had to go past the exit to the opponent's respawn (the opponent had a road passage to him).
I had no money, but my opponent helped me out :) he let my scout through to the backyard of his own castle, where the latter collected 15+K gold.
In the end, the opponent came and cut off my connection to home; there was only one exit out of the treasure zone - that's where I went; the terrain there was terribly twisted, the treasure zone was far away and small; I came to the opponent, Ivor attacked, I bought myself off.
In the end, seeing the opponent's Fly spell, I started playing carelessly and wasted the bought-off hero along with the tavern growth, after which I surrendered.

Thanks for the game.

numOne (blue, Rampart, Kirr, Kirr) def Wlk777 (red, swamp, Wystan, Wystan) 2sm4d(3), 142

Respawn gave a small one, but there is an external dwelling of elves. On the first turn I took a chest for 5000 gold, upgraded the secondary castle with an external dwelling of swords. At home, cavalry in the castle, in the castle 1,2,4. Kirya with expert attack and starting tactics. As always, Valentin has his native secondary hero. :)
On the second turn, sword 2/2, Kirya after the stables, bought a book, 2 dwarf cottages, a hive for 8, a cons to 3, a naga bank to 3, I fly home, near home another cons to 3. I go through the adjacent grass secondary to visit.
On the third turn, I pick up a shield +6 along the way, kill a horseman, bring up more meat, and with Air scouting move to the red capital. They gave me the castle almost without a fight. I see Wystan, go out to meet him. I attack (I was a bit short of experience for Expert Air, so the battle was quite tough).
Kirya (13 15 5 3)
50 Grand Elves, 6 Angels, 10 Cavaliers, 20 Silver Pegasi, 8 Dwarves, 40 Centaur Captains
Wystan (11 12 4 4)
70+ Greater Basilisks, 27 Dwarves, 40 Harpy Hags, 14 Dragon Flies.
Valentin started with Mass Slow and covered his lizards, which (as it turned out, with a Golden Bow) took out all my elves in 2 rounds. I was slightly upset by this turn of events, but when it came to melee, the advantage was already on my side. I blocked the shooters, knocked out the harpies, and Valentin surrenders with 30 lizards and a couple of harpies. I also lost a lot, but at the start of the next week I bring in troops and finish off Wystan sitting in the secondary.

Thanks for the game!

It happened again; a series of small, annoying mistakes decided the outcome. :( Everything was going well, with a familiar secondary town, hidden units of Viv and Vases. At the end of the second turn, I made a blunder – I foolishly lost 20 Lizards and 3 Ducks. To compensate, I built a Castle and a Stronghold, but the 7500 resources weren't enough for a proper buyout when the opponent arrived at the beginning of the third turn. As a result, I didn't have enough meat to provide cover. Six Angels (I couldn't find any Conserves) and the opponent's superior stats sealed my fate. Thanks for the game.

Loi (blue, ramp, Ivor, Ivor) def Shamys (red, castle, Caitlin, Caitlin) 2sm4d(3) 137
We played for 4 minutes. On the first [day] 1-6 in the Citadel, captured — external dwelling of Pegasi, Elves, 2 [dwellings] of Dwarves. Secondary [hero] on the snow — blocked by 10+ Necro Dragons. In the metro — 20+ Ice [elementals]. There were no buildings except the max Dwarf dwelling — I took that at the end of the second [week]. On the third [day], after speeding up at the stables — ran to the metro. There, along the way, Naga3 and Naga4. Broke through to the reds' respawn, captured a Tree of 4 Vivi [Wisdom] there and also Consu4 [Conflux 4th level dwelling] there. Assault — managed to win.
Thanks for the game

I confirm

Generated unusually—a path to the home town via off-road—from there, via the fastest road—a path into a treasure zone. On the third and fourth days I bulked up, got control—and then on day 147 DD, flight, and capture of the Stronghold. Ran around some more—almost caught Gunya in a treasure zone; on the next turn, the blues report my victory.
Thanks for the game.
P.S. Grinya was a pure mage—only in the last slot did he greedily grab armor)
