We chose almost all the resurrections, and there was also a meeting... On 115, the external dwelling of rags, skeletons, liches went into the Citadel, and their external dwelling was taken on 117 — there were 170+ skeletons. Shakti, apparently, tried to resurrect again at the meeting — was seen from the scout with 50+ Troglodytes, I pulled away from him, but news of surrender came.
Thanks for the game.

When will the supermatch between Fortress and AlexGreat take place?

When will the super match Fortress vs. Alexgreat take place?

Yeah, or Paladin (where did Dima go?) - Great, Pit - Great, Lebron - Great, Mizrael (defeated Alex in the Interportal) - Great, Scorp - Great. It would be very interesting... :)

Correct.
Made my way through the dungeon - didn't take the Necropolis (didn't get it), took another route to the GO (Greater Object), and a third route (113) - a swamp with a fork in the road leading in 2 directions. Decided that if needed, I could run back and rest. On 114, I see that the passage to the fortress is blocked by 10+ gr. Minotaurs, so I went to rest.
And the road turned out to be a trap. GG.

Thanks for the game.

Thanks for the game.

I confirm and congratulate on a well-deserved victory!

111 - scouting review: external dwelling of dragons behind 10-19 Wyverns!!!(no restarts, but I'm in no hurry to take it and break through to the surface, since no one has canceled rest 116), at the same time I level up Shakti, break through the portal from the other side of the mages, but behind them are crypt chests... tempting
112 - heading to the external dwelling
113 - kill 16 Wyverns, was hasty with the main stack's attack on the Wyverns, and lost a bit more than I expected, and after the first strike 2 Troglodytes remained, the dragons also hit pretty hard, in the end out of 155 upgraded Troglodytes 98 remained((, break through to the snow road, a Griffin Conservatory is visible there, can't reach the guard due to the penalty so I go for the secondary
114 - Shakti enters the secondary, encounters a crypt on the way and spots the scouting review, so I don't build it in the secondary, but rather a tavern and a hero, scouting review: only 2 Griffin Conservatories and boots (but not nearby), in the treasure zone only shackles are visible, and in another a red orb
I buy 1 Black Dragon at the portal to break through the 10-19 mages, realizing the chances of the mages winning are high, I add 7 Evil Eyes - the outcome of the game is decided, 3 moral mages survived (hit with Luna 0033, from 0411 - I didn't make it in time), finish off with Troglodytes 115 - Shakti clears the guard of the Griffin Conservatory, a scout with Troglodytes takes the human secondary, tavern - a hero, additional purchase of units and a crypt, 2 external dwellings of swords are visible
116 - find out which Griffin Conservatory is at 2-4, the second is discovered using scouts with upgraded Gremlins and 8 Gargoyles - for 1 Angel, I head there with 1 Black Dragon
117 - Shakti was buried in the Griffin Conservatory, so we capture the 2 external dwellings of swords and build 1,2,4 in the fort in the Castle
121 - the hero has 8 swords and can buy another 22 pieces, a Griffin Conservatory on grass and a Pandora's Box have been explored
122 - a scout with 1 Black Dragon cleared the Griffin Conservatory (21 Griffins)
123 - red flags appear under the human Castle: a scout with all the machinery and Kyrre on 1-4 Angels)), but alas there is no main hero, no one to fight with
124 - scout the Griffin Conservatory for 1 Angel, the red player does not go for the Castle
125 - transfer 1 Black Dragon, 1 Angel, 22 swords and small stuff = +1 Angel with the loss of 1 sword and some meat, immediately hit 16 Centaurs (with Champions), lose the Angel since the hero is a mage and zero = gave 20 Crushers to 21 unupgraded))
126 - take the gold, and didn't let the scout near the Castle (although Kyrre is half a move away from it, but enemy scouting still needs to be limited)
127 - kill another scout, build the Castle for defense, still have 41 Crusaders on hand, and buy any hero, and then disconnects occur, even though the internet didn't go down(?), Kyrre's stats 16 19 8 8 !!! all that was left was to congratulate Anatoly ))

Thank you for the game!!!

Again, the starting conditions were favorable (right from the start), and my opponent didn't take a rest turn. My home base, a hidden lair of lizards and basilisks... It was incredibly difficult to earn money for building and buying units; I barely had enough, and in the second week, I faced two consecutive conflicts (2 and 3). A monk gave me a tactic, and in the third week, I attacked my opponent. I had significantly more troops, although I didn't have any decent magic. I spent the entire battle under Mass Slow, but 120+ griffins (in two squads) brutally slaughtered everyone under Blessing. 14 ducks and 29 basilisk squads didn't even properly engage in the battle. Thank you for the game.

One swamp isn't a gift, but two is already too much! Thanks for the game!

Took all the rests, distributed roughly, but beautifully. Native secondary, by nickname viv near each castle, took both nicknames up to 116, built them in castles...
Played poorly because I couldn't establish a chain, only found one crypt...
As for highlights, on the 2nd turn I was already in the treasure zone, took 3 Nagash-style ones, pity that almost all are mini. On the 3rd I break 2 Dragon Utopia, on the 3rd and 4th gold, played disgustingly, not enough meat, lost about 15-18 vivs in total...
Thanks for the game, my tempo was slightly higher, although a bit weak...

Yeah, that's how it was.
For 3 weeks, archers in the Castle were never built once, total WTF.

Week 1: secondary hero Rampart, built 1-2-4-6 in the Citadel, elves in Rampart. Nothing interesting at all, just a Staff of +4 Knowledge and a Ring of +1/1.

Week 2: secondary hero Conflux, scrapped with Roma's weaklings, a minor nagash, scouted almost half the map and not a single Griffin Conservatory or beehive for you. + at 127 I gathered 20k gold and 30 of each resource, but I got distracted somehow and forgot to build monks that week to stick in the angels. With the feeling that I'm about to bury the keyboard, I placed monks on 127...

Week 3: nagash at 3, took +1 Speed from a group of Ghost Dragons, went into the underground and the sand treasure zone - Dragon Utopias in both, but no one to take them with yet (only Marksmen and Grand Elves with Champions). I visit the library, a beehive with 6 Wyverns, beat 7 Archangels for a Shield +3/3 and a Ring of Sulfur. The angels were built back home.

Week 4: Maxi beehive at 141, seems quiet near the ГО, so I'm waiting for cash to buy up fodder and soldiers and head for the Utopias, but on 142 Wystan pops out from behind many Bear Riders and takes my capital with the growth, un-bought Griffins, Monks, and Pikemen (only managed to grab 1 angel). In short, total WTF, I think at least from Rampart I'll send 40 Dwarves and fifty Centaurs with 14 Elves, but that damn Aine level 20 (from a prison apparently) kills the weaklings, and the army won't even reach Val... Out of frustration I attack a group of Angels, who with morale finish off all my Marksmen, I take a Pandora's Box with 25 Evil Eyes and put myself in Wystan's firing line )))

Thanks for the game.

Played poorly, made many mistakes, as a result, a lot of creatures and gold were lost, thanks for the game!!!

I'll write the main thing! We both went into the treasure zones because development was approximately equal, although my opponent had two Ramparts! In my treasure zone, the Dragon Utopia was minimal level and gave bad loot! Just a small treat — Dragon Fly Hive! My opponent's parameters were skyrocketing every turn! I thought — this is it! But next to the Dragon Utopia I loot a chest and there was all the earth! I had a plan — while my opponent is treasure-hunting, break into Castle, then break through the ГО and take away his Rampart. So I did — on the first day with the army passed along the chain! I keep an eye on Ivor with the view spell — he was deeply stuck in the sands! I take all his towns! I run to where there are still artifacts and Dragon Fly Hives and watch Ivor carefully! For him, basically the only quick way is to retake his nearest Rampart! Ivor prepared for a march rush, and then he was ambushed by Turis's commando squad! Even with his setup at the start — 3 Angels and 33 upgraded Pegasi — it was hard to beat him with Defense 31, with his full army it's simply impossible, since Ivor was decked out in artifacts like a Christmas tree, but against my implosion he had no defense! That was in case he fought back from the town with his entire army!! Thanks for the game!

Respect to the opponent – a well-deserved and hard-fought victory. On my side, it was an insatiable desire to help – I was punished for it with bad luck in two matches. I opened Pandora's Box in two significant matches – found one Utopia 3 – from which I didn't get anything, didn't even need money – and I had already managed to move my troops. And in the end, for some reason, I decided to move according to the opponent's movements, thinking he had no air – I decided to sneak up on him... and I did sneak up on him – but it turned out badly, I snuck up on myself))
Thank you for the game, it was useful!

OUTLAW(blue,Castle,Valeska,Aislinna) def Hermit(red,Fortress,Tazar,Tazar), 2SM4d(3),2-1-5
Start without built archers, a necromancer arrived second in the tavern. The roads are the slowest, but on 111 two crypts and a dwarf settlement were spotted.... let's play.
112-bought a 6th hero, 3 forks and stables were spotted—already very GOOD!!! since I was afraid of being left with only one secondary town, a conservatory was spotted.
113-in the max crypt they give an artifact for +1/+1 to morale/luck. Broke through into the dungeon toward Dunge, but the road was blocked by 20-49 diamond golems for a quest artifact, turnaround
By the end of the week, I put horses with a Stronghold at home. Necro has expert necromancy, but in the 3rd slot I was dealt Scouting, which basically later determined the victory in many ways.
On the second week, I finally broke through to Dunge via the diamond golems, who wiped out almost all the collected skeletons, and painted Dunge. The road to the Stronghold was blocked by 50-99 orcs on native land; I was afraid to fight without tactics.
Several crypts and a dwarf settlement, put angels with a Castle at home. As many as 3 conservatories were found and a Dragon Utopia on stones, a 4th conservatory is behind the mountains on an adjacent grass tile.
On the 3rd, I broke through a Hive(6), conservatories(3+3+3), boots, shield+4. On 137 ГГ crashes and spends the night in Castle. The turtle pace just kills, ГГ is constantly speeding up + stables—that's all that saves me(((.
At the start of the 4th, I paint the Stronghold with a chain, ГГ crashes there - conservatory(2), Dragon Utopia mini-gave +2 all and a hat+4 for knowledge. From there, I immediately start into the underground treasure zone, from which via metro to the 3rd secondary town on grass; a scout is heading there with a lot of royal griffins.
Thanks to advanced Scouting and 2 artifacts for the skill in the treasure zone, a Dragon Utopia was immediately spotted, air book, library, +2 speed, crates, and hives. Through air view, I observe the movements of Tazar, who was working in the neighboring treasure zone behind the wall)))
Dragon Utopia 3-cuirass +10 and a hat of 5th magic, shook out 28 vivs, collected all the tasty stuff. The scout painted Conf, lit up the overview, from which the edge of a Dragon Utopia in the lava treasure zone became visible, and another 2 conservatories were spotted.
At the beginning of the 5th week, Tazar moves into this lava treasure zone, Aislinna rushes to intercept (there are still untouched 4 conservatories and 4 hives in reserve), I decide to intercept him there. On the way a conservatory(2) and then I squeeze Tazar into the corner of the treasure zone.
20 angels, 570+ skeletons and company left no chance for the swamp brotherhood under the cover of the cloak of renunciation.
Thanks to Vova for the game!!!

That's how it was. The only secondary objective was the tower, and to reach the nearest treasury, which was completely empty, it took about a week of traveling through the snow. I tried to speed up Tazar's movement with a harpy, and considered going for a gargoyle, but there was no tempo. :(

Thanks for the game.

Fluffy24 (blue, Castle, Valeska, Valeska) def reptile (red, Stronghold, random, Yarbakas) 2smd4(3), 123

111-I immediately see an external dwelling of archers and take it, get 36 archers and go down, see a 2nd external dwelling, scatter with thieves!
112-I open the scout and see that the random map will be super:eek: 3 crypts, a Dwarf Cottage, a couple of Medusa Storages, and a Griffin Conservatory!
113-I break through to the secondary town, see a hollow with few Rust Dragons, go into the underground while clearing freebies along the way:) 6 heroes
114-I go along the road, no Castle in sight, visit the Arena, defense, etc.
115-I take the Dwarf Cottage on turn 15, make a chain to break back home.
116-As a result, a bad chain, I lose a whole day:mad:
117-I break into the Castle, take the crypt. End of the week, horses in the Stronghold!
121-Valeska takes max Dwarf Cottage, crypt, I transfer troops, thieves break through the guard for money, Expert Earth, no Slow=(!
122-I take the Medusa Storage, buy up troops and prepare to go to the Treasury.
123-Opponent surrenders!!!

Thanks for the game, too bad we didn't finish!!!
