SEM_56 (blue, Swamp, Vistan, Vistan) def HeadHunter (red, Tower, Nella, Nella) 2sm4d(3) 214
A huge loss of tempo starting from turn 124, when, being near the treasure, he didn't explore the ground. First, they threw spells and armor. I had to turn around, weaken the enemy, and take the hives. By turn 126, I had already scouted 2 treasures, and there were strong neutrals, so I only attacked with GO on turn 212 and took the opponent's capital, thanks for the game...
P.S. I got a Mythical Dragon for the quest, and in the dungeon, there were 15 wizards, they played their role!!!

Ivengo (blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def Kach (red, Swamp, Vistan, Vistan) 2sm4d(3), 135

There's not much to be proud of. I just ran through the secondary map, gathered resources, and built everything I could in two weeks. Vistan came with an army twice as strong (he overtook me and took the Hives first). If he hadn't locked himself in the Castle, he would have lost. But as it was, the strong walls saved me.
Thanks for the game!!!

Thanks for the game!!!

Confirmed.
Practiced swamp a bit.
Took everything at my home, 3 Dragon Fly Hives at the opponent's respawn and 2 Dwarf Cottages, bought them all out, but couldn't deal with the walls. The catapult was dumb until the very end, and I also messed up a bit myself. Didn't feel like retreating, the trade wasn't really equal. I also had Gosh with earth and log, and money to mess around, but that's not my style :)

Thanks for the game

SEM_56 (blue, Swamp, Vistan, Vistan) def HeadHunter (red, Tower, Nella, Nella) 2sm4d(3) 214

Hermit(red, tower, Solmyr, Solmyr) def Van(red, castle, Valeska, Gunar) balance 137

I don't understand myself how I didn't get wasted??? I started playing Tower with Solmyr and decided to make him the main hero — on the balance there are no fancy red orbs. He learned basic earth magic and wanted to level it up so I could take two Griffin Conservatories on the second month and get to the Treasury through the monolith, which was guarded by lots of black knights with a gr. stack. Gunar's stats are growing rapidly. Well, I took the first Griffin Conservatory almost without losses using the chain and nagas, but the second one was maxed out. I had to hit the knights on the third month with advanced earth — I sacrificed both angels and two nagas there; behind the monolith — a flock of angels, good thing there was no gr., but I leveled earth to expert and took the max Conservatory easily almost without losses. I forgot to give Solmyr the angels to break through the angels, but still killed them almost without losses using a chain with expert slow. I built GM2, there's lightning there; a scout hero was carrying it to teach Solmyr through Anya, but didn't deliver. I went into the Treasury, and Gunar was standing right there nearby and saw it. I broke through a horde of manticores on the attack, and luckily I was cautious and didn't split Solmyr. Gunar has 15 spell power, while Solmyr has over 130 and mages. Well, we slowed each other and killed troops; he mainly with archers, and I with magic arrow, and then Gunar had few troops left, and my slow just wore off, so I killed him. The artifacts there turned out to be something else...     Thanks for the game.

I was kind of playing at a slow pace – I was also watching football at the same time, but there wasn't a single instance where I had an advantage on 6 respawn points, and also, thoughts keep popping into my head. In the last games, I gave auto-play and lost 4 times, it's kind of unclear, maybe I should stop this practice. I lost – go home – practice (referring to myself). That's how it is.
Thank you for the game.

Volland (red, swamp, Tazar) def FAVorite (blue, dungeon, Shagti), 2sm4d(3), 222
Managed to win again with swamp against two dungeons and an outside dragon. Luckily, my opponent didn't have a fast upgrade, and I was close enough to the treasure with the book of air, wings, and 6 utopias (took 2 in that treasure).
Thanks for the game.

Psyche_7(blue,Dungeon,Shakti,Gunnar) def SEM_56(red,Castle,Valeska,Valeska), 2sm4d(3), 145

He won thanks to his superior attack/defense and Minotaurs (ambush + portal), and the lightning strike helped as well. Although, 160+ archers from the opponent were quite nerve-wracking.

Psyche_7(blue,Dungeon,Shakti,Gunnar) def SEM_56(red,Fortress,Valeska,Valeska), 2sm4d(3), 145

He won thanks to his superior attack/defense and Minotaurs (ambush + portal), and the lightning strike helped. Although 160+ archers from the opponent were nerve-wracking.

After all the resets, the distribution was such that he only placed horses and a Fortress on 136-137. The opponent had a complete advantage, which he didn't use. He went to attack the Town Hall, but on the other side, there was a crowd of dragons. He reached the portal to the opponent's capital, cut off the supply, but the opponent attacked himself, with a 2x parameter advantage in everything, plus 35 core Minotaurs and 17 Wyverns. My 150 Marksmen and 19 Wyverns with 4 Angels couldn't deal enough damage with 6 attacks. Thanks for the game, I'll take revenge on the generator! :smile14:

Wlk777 (red, Castle, Valerius) def. Pradromalo (blue, Necropolis, Galtran) 2smd4(3) 126
Forgot to remove the Necromancer =). Luckily, my opponent has little experience and skill playing as them (and so do I, by the way). After the rest, the map was distributed unevenly, everything was behind mountains and blocks, few marks, my main secondary town was blocked by a Gate of Order, I barely found a way around... No hiding places, little money... As a result, I took the main secondary town, in the capital, I had Knights with Griffins in the Fortress, and Griffins in the secondary town... Somehow, I managed to gather what I could for the second round (4 Knights, 49 Marks, 15 Corrupted Griffins, 50+ other creatures - I didn't have enough money for all of them), the nearest passage to the Dungeon led to my opponent, I took his almost empty capital (Citadel), and my opponent surrendered. Thank you for the game.

I confirm!
Bad map layout!

Alessandro (blue, Castle, Valeska) def Van (red, Swamp, Tazar) 117, 2cm4d3
112 - I take the mini-gnoll den.
116 - I place knights.
117 - The situation: 2 paths. One leads to the Gate of Oblivion, the other blocks the snow with 50-99 greased fire elementals. I don't have enough money for a stronghold, so I build griffins. I receive a message about the surrender. Thank you for the game.
