OUTLAW (blue, Castle, Waleska, Broghild) def RetroFMsss (red, Stronghold, Crag Hack, Crag Hack), 2SM4d (3), 1-3-7 Start on the speed roads, near the town of Utopia. In the early game, I focus on Broghild. By the end of the week, I have a Stronghold with cavalry and archers, plus a Dungeon as a secondary base. I build a metro to the second secondary base and a third secondary base in the snow. I have scouted 2 Condors and 2 Hives. On the second day, I upgrade to Earth magic, Condors (3+2), Hives (4+6), and I was hoping for a strong pack of Ducks(((, I finish building Griffons with a growth bonus and a Castle. At the beginning of day 3, I break through to the second Dungeon, where I find a Condor (4), and discover a metro. Through the extended Earth magic view, I see that the metro leads to my opponent and is very close to his capital. On day 133, I camp in front of the metro with 9 Angels and a company. On day 134, I am already at my opponent's base. On day 135, I take the Stronghold. On day 136, I am halfway to taking the last city of Zhenya - the Castle, with Angels built. In both Dungeons, I build portals to summon Archers, and my castles have +2,000 income. On day 137, my opponent concedes... Respect to my opponent for trying to recover from a bad situation until the end.... If Broghild hadn't arrived in time, it would have been difficult to stop Crag - Crag was retreating to the Treasury with 6 Hives, very compactly arranged nearby, and there was also a metro to the Treasury with 2 Utopias nearby..... Thank you for the game!!

Wlk777(red, Castle, Valeska, Valeska) def wariator(blue, Rampart, Kirry, Kirry) 2smd4(3) 216 The start was shaky! In the end, I fell behind! Two Dragon Utopia didn't really give me anything! thanks for the game!

FireToSky (blue, Jungle, Wistân, Wistân) def Wlk777 (red, Rampart, Kirr, Kirr), 2sm4d(3), 136
Near the capital, a couple of experience stones, many heroes, but only 1-6 in the fort
121 - Pandora's box for 10k with a horde of ghosts. Exe earth
126 - secondary hero Conflux
127 - external dwelling of fire birds.
132 - Griffin Conservatory for 3
132-134 in treasures, a pendant of +3 luck\morale, a book of earth for 10-19 angels
135- the opponent captures the capital, vastly superior in parameters (20 KS)
136 - stands half a step from the Conflux, I attack with an explosion of 975! Valentin has an ice elemental dealing 430! Valentin's army was much larger...
The opponent could have bought his way out, but for some reason didn't, and in the end couldn't even escape.
Thanks for the game!

It happened; on the third turn, I took the maximum possible amount of resources, but wasn't given anything that would help against the opponent's early-game strategy, which focused on the nearest resource zone. Thanks for the game.

~no1_knows_me~ (Red, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) draw Loi (Blue, Conflux, random, Lacus, Ciele) 2sm4d(3) 1-2-7

Week 1: Came with Kyrre Gunnar :) Near the castle a Dragon Fly Hive, then along the road another one and another one right next to it!!! I hit the Dragon Fly Hive with basic shooters but don't go inside yet. On day 114 I go in with 11 Grand Elves, 41 Centaurs, and 28 Troglodytes into a treasure-trove Dwarf Cottage, lucky it was near-max, barely got out preserving all Elves and a dozen Centaurs. A medium Crypt and I painted the wood elven archer's bow. Brought Pegasi and wood elves and managed to take another Dwarf Cottage on 15 =) Home 1-6 in the castle.

Week 2: No money and nowhere to get it :( I take the breached Dragon Fly Hive with wood elves alone, hehe barely survived with a few left, but it gave 6 Wyverns. Then another one for 6 Wyverns, and the last one turned out to be max (there I lost 1 Wyvern and 2 horses). Maneuvers for cash, a Necromancy amplifier on 4 falls easily - 23 Wyverns after all =) I take the Griffin Conservatory 2 and go straight into the treasure zone through a portal. An excellent treasure zone it turned out to be, I take a Pandora's Box for 15k experience and another one for 10k gold. To the side right next to each other stand 2 Dragon Utopias =)

...turns out opponent had half past five in the morning =) no one wanted to play on from the save the next day, hence the draw, otherwise I would have put up a decent fight :smile30:

Thanks for the game!!!

SuperGrandMaster (blue, swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def Rebellious (red, Tower, Nella, Nella) 2sm4d(3) 147

On the first, wyverns in the citadel. Native secondary there are wyverns and 2 lizard external dwellings. The ranged blocks were a pleasant surprise. A horde of shooters, a crowd of greys. A minotaur external dwelling is spotted behind the air horde, but I have nothing to take it with. The opponent also has a double.

On 122, entered the treasure zone.
123 dragon external dwelling
124. I see a hive. Behind 10-19 gr. nags, they guard three objects: university of secondary skills and a ring of life. I wanted to attack, but decided that I'll always have time to lose units later. Also visible are a couple of chests behind a crowd of genies and ifrits, and a horde of trolls. Nothing else....((

125 I get smashed by the nags. And rightly so. There were 18 of them. I go to capture the secondary in the underground, but there due to bugged generation is immediately a treasure zone (???) along the path... and a block with a crowd of psychs for a level 3 knowledge art and a Pandora's box for 10 thousand gold; alright. My barely alive dragons kill them, I take the hive on 8. A minotaur external dwelling, but a different one.

126-127 I see the monolith, broke through the guard there is snow. Thought it was to the opponent. Very short of money and I see a dwarf mine. Took a risk to take it and also risked capturing the castle. But it turned out that the secondary belonged to no one)))))
(thought so because the opponent already had 3 native cities)

On the third, returned again to that old treasure zone; in total lost 9 wyverns, even wanted to surrender, it was so sickening. Killed nags, got a hive on 4. Took 2 water boxes of second level, in the second one 15 thousand experience. After the decoys, 2 hives (8+4) are visible. I get smashed there. To the Tower secondary and thinking about Dragon Utopia

141 recovered shield +6
142 refill mana at the well and take the same Dragon Utopia unfortunately. But there is a book of air and a shield +4 to everything
143 refill mana again. And I get smashed on my way home. Planning to go
visit the opponent. Upgrade wyverns and minotaurs
144 fly over ГО (should have killed them to max out expert air) and kill olha with 2 angels. Also from the overview, I see the opponent's main hero who is preparing to visit the university
145 I don't fall for the decoys that the opponent kindly provided me on the snow, but attack Nella. After a light battle, it seems I win. Thought that was all. But I was wrong. The opponent had a lot of meat.
146 thanks to DD, I capture the main castle. (Barely) reached it
147 kill Nella in the secondary.

146-147 were the most tense moments in the game. The opponent played very cunningly with decoys and used the landscape to try and make Tazar spend a lot of moves.

And the finale forced a very strong refill because of the explosion!

Thx for the game!!!

SuperGrandMaster (blue, swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def Rebellious (red, tower, Nella, Nella) 2sm4d(3) 147

I played casually. I missed my opponent's attack. And I also didn't manage to reach the main city with Nella, missing it by just one square.
Thanks for the game.

~no1_knows_me~ (Red, Rampart, Kirya, Kirya) draw Loi (Blue, Conflux, random, Lacus, Ciel) 2sm4d(3) 1-2-7

It happened. In the first game, there were birds in the Fortress, air elementals, and fire elementals; in the second, a Castle and a secondary Swamp. But I got ambushed while guarding Pandora, losing 10,000 experience points and over 100 fire elementals without mass slow. So, I had to wait for reinforcements, and the game became drawn out. Eventually, we decided on a draw.
Thank you for the game.

OUTLAW (blue, Castle, Valeska, Broghild) def RetroFMsss (red, Stronghold, Crag Hack, Crag Hack), 2SM4d(3), 1-3-7
Start on fast roads, near a Dragon Utopia city. In ГО I identify Brogh. By the end of the week, home horses in the Stronghold + external dwelling of shooters, secondary Dungeon. There is a metro to the basement for the second secondary and
a third secondary in the snow. 2 Griffin Conservatories and 2 Hives are spotted. On the second day I leveled Earth, Conservatories (3+2), Hives (4+6), and I was hoping for a striking pack of ducks(((, at home I built Griffins with growth + Castle.
At the start of the third week I break into the basement to the second Dungeon, there is a Conservatory (4), a metro is found, through the exploration of Earth I see that the metro leads to the opponent and very close to his capital.
On day 133 I stay overnight before the metro with 9 Angels and company, on day 134 I am already at the opponent's respawn. Day 135 - I take Stronghold. Day 136 - half a move from Zhenya's last city - Castle with built Angels, in both Dungeons I built Portal of Summoning for Archers, home +2,000 income. Day 137 - capitulation...
Respect to the opponent for trying to crawl out of a bad situation until the end.... If Brogh had not arrived in time, it would have been difficult to stop Crag later - Crag was going into the treasure zone with 6!! Hives, very compactly located nearby, and there was also a metro to the treasure zone with 2 Dragon Utopias nearby.....
Thank you for the game!!

Thank you for the game. No rests left... The respawn is poor... barbaric, in a word... ГО Archangels cheerfully waved their little wings... Crag waved his sword... broke into the only secondary on day 117 (Crag was given Tactics) 90 Archers... with no money at the first, birds were built in the Stronghold... breaking into the secondary, I saw an external dwelling of Angels. Having eaten two minimal Dwarf Cottages and three minimal Crypts, I barely placed the Angels, but! my entire army was not enough to kill the guard of the Angel external dwelling - 150 upgraded Harpies... I didn't even think they were so angry... there was no money and it was not possible to take an army from the Angel city... The opponent gave auto... I don't know what his thoughts were when I told him that the Harpies killed me...:roler: Start of the third week, Crag in Boots, with Gloves, sped up at the Stable with double Mana (140)... handsome... with three Angels and a dozen birds, I spotted a treasure zone with a bunch of Hives... And then the upgraded Basilisks told me that in my spell book I have neither Dispel nor Cure, and there were 7 stacks of 25 of them... and I didn't have Expert Slow... How many times they stoned and HOW timely... At the end of the game, taking auto is completely unethical and I surrendered... The Harpies made themselves respected in this game ))) and the Basilisks )))

Thank you for the game ))) A couple of game days would have given the chance to buy out troops.... The opponent arrived in time...

SEM_56 (blue, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor) def Zloy romantik (red, Castle, Valeska, Kreg Heck) 2SM4d(3), 124
Revenge for a careless throw)))
Took all the resets, the block from the orc archers spawned, but there's a bypass. On 111 Ivor takes the Centaur dwelling and 2 crypts, then bypassing the block hits a portal from a pack of horned ones, on the other side a pack of core Medusas. Next I break through 24 Evil Eyes, open the scouting area, take a secondary castle, Kreg appeared near the portal. Since I have money and 17 Grand Elves, I decide to rush on 121. I gather resources, take a crypt with 5 vampires, don't build Unicorns, and on 117 I stand with Ivor in the portal on single Pegasi. On 121 I transport troops, buy 2 upgraded Psychic Ents at the Refugee Camp, hit the Medusas, go left at the crossroads, block the passage together with Gorgons guarding the required quest!!!
On 122 I hit 18 Gorgons, take the nearby castle, buy Dessa there, hand over the quest which gives 20 Crusaders. On 123 I transport the Crusaders, buy a spellbook, and with Expert Earth take the Griffin Conservatory for 2 Angels. Ivor on the rampage, Kreg comes out of the portal, kills my 2 scouts and heads into the portal. Next turn Ivor attacks, Kreg has basic Tactics, he positions. I block the Grand Elves, halve the Marksmen. The opponent casts Mass Haste and sends everyone at my warriors (but 19 defense rules). I cast Mass Slow and that's it. I halve 10 Cavalry, on round 2 hit the Marksmen, finish off the Cavalry and 10 of the opponent's Crusaders, thanks for the game!!!

Saw that the scouting was all lighting up for me, but I couldn't find the strength to give up the high ground). Under the bright lights of the ramp, I pushed toward the muddy adjacent zone, managed to grab the native one there, saw that Kyrre had set up at the speed boost (thankfully, Fiona revealed the red road...)—calculated that she fell short. Kyrre was a couple of tiles short, bought in on my turn—then came the final showdown with Week 1 growths, where the +1 Speed artifact decided a lot...
Thanks for the sharp, dynamic game.

Confirmed.

Thanks for the game.

~no1_knows_me~ (Red, Barb, Crag Hack, Crag Hack) def SEM_56 (Blue, Fortress, Wystan, Wystan) 2sm4d(3) 1-1-7

Wolves are built, upgrade goes on goblins first, then wolves. Money is sufficient, took Inferno as secondary, buffed the stats of orcs and demons. Crag Hack was given a choice between Navigation or Diplomacy, unfortunately :( but later grabbed Earth magic. Took a mini Dwarf Cottage on day 116. At home, I plugged in 1-2-3-4-5 in the Castle + demons in the secondary...but Roma got punished in the max-level crypt...

thanks for the time

~no1_knows_me~ (Red, Barb, Crag, Crag) def SEM_56 (Blue, Swamp, Wystan, Wystan) 2sm4d(3) 1-1-7

Wolves built, upgraded goblins first, then wolves. Money was enough, took Inferno as secondary, painted the huts of orcs and demons. Crag was given a choice between Navigation or Diplomacy :( but then grabbed Earth. Took a mini Dwarf Cottage on 116. At home built 1-2-3-4-5 in Castle + demons in secondary...but Roma was punished in the max crypt...

thanks for the time

got greedy and didn't take Rest on 113, 2 hives near the Castle and Tazar for cover lured me in. Lost a decent amount of troops near the secondary, there was nothing there and finally lost it all in the max crypt with 1 Wyvern, a Fly and 18 Lizardmen, thanks for the time(((

numOne (red, swamp, Wystan, Wystan) def OUTLAW (blue, Castle, Valeska, Valeska), 2sm4d(3), 217

On the first week took 2 crypts, painted Conflux, native respawn not rich, lots of shooter guards, dwellings 1-6, no 4 in Citadel.
On the second week I push through to native respawn via a beholder, grab a pandora's box with 10000 exp behind steel golems. Wystan with Earth magic, Offense, Air magic. Build in a secondary town ducks, buy everything out and go visit Igor on the grass, but he met me fully armed:
Wystan (7 10 3 3)
50 gr. lizards, 7 ducks, 7 cows, 60 gnolls, 10 gr. flies.
Valya (7 7 1 2)
50 marksmen, 2 angels, 10 cavaliers (!), 7 swordsmen, 12 griffins, a few pikemen.
Interesting fight. Valya's troops got morale every other turn. Some trading back and forth, and it was unclear who would come out ahead, but I decide to buy back and go into the treasure zone at the start of week 3.
Weeks 3-4 we both run around treasure zones, lose some ducks, level up, I get 2 magic dragons, take an excellent Dragon Utopia (Melee 5 TO OL, Shield 4 TO OL, Wings and +2 Speed) and on turn 147 I take the opponent's Inferno secondary town in the underground, also breaking his chain.
On week 5 I take the capital, we trade a few losses, and in the final fight, thanks to an advantage in meat, I win fairly easily:
