Took all rests, the spawn was harsh, struggled around the respawn until I noticed 2 Dwarf Cottages and a stack of Hydras hiding in a corner at the end of the week. On days 121-124 I break all this, 2 max Dwarf Cottages without losses with a grad stack and 12 cats for the Hydra stack. On day 125 already in the underground, I hit elves and mages on the way to Inferno. The grave gave me the Cape of Speed. Then maneuvers, on day 131 I reach the treasure zone, before it I visit all magic curiosities and find Slow. On day 133 I stand before 3 Pandora's Boxes and a beehive, word arrives about a throw and little prospects, thanks for the time!!!

Native secondary-adjacent, dragon external dwelling behind 20+ cyclops—took it on the second turn. Basically, everything is great: convenient exits to the treasure zone; in the grassy treasure zone, the scout found the Air Portal, and I retreated there. Also took utopia2 there—they gave a sentinel's shield as something useful. The same was distributed much worse for the blues, and Valya apparently had to go through the adjacent dungeon, where the Miner immediately arrived. Valya fled to the treasure zone, where everything is already opened and the best treats are eaten; the Miner uses DD to two cons standing side by side, and the blues concede victory.
Thanks to Artyom for the game and to the viewers for their attention, and of course, to the generator—which decided everything :)

Took all the rests, was short on gold. In the treasure, the opponent attacked, but mas haste and block from the archers played their part, thanks for the game, it was interesting!!

In short, the layout was sweet: convenient exits to the treasure zone; in the grassy treasure zone, the scout found Air Portal, and I escaped there.

In a half-move from the main — guard moved onto grass via rough terrain, was sure the adjacent zone — thought — maybe there'd be no respawn, turned out to be my own secondary town, and a native one at that. On the second move I took the adjacent zone — Inferno, entered the barbarian respawn on 127. There they were waiting for me in the castle, I didn't attack — the chain was tightly placed, I decided to scout around, lay siege, bring in troops from both native towns. The red player apparently disagreed with that, attacked. 60+ Marksmen, 26 Crusaders (there was a stash...), 8 Champions etc. with Mass Slow (only 1 Slow Master though :) — gave me the win.
Thanks for the game.

All restarts were used, the spawn was good, 2 horse nomad huts and a griffin nomad hut which I didn't even take, as well as a Dragon Utopia near the castle and a Griffin Conservatory on 4 as it turned out later. We play, on the first week I clear 1 horse nomad hut and a secondary hero on 114 tower, I find another Dragon Utopia on the secondary hero and a Griffin Conservatory, on 122 a pair of Naga Banks on 2 and 6, a second nomad hut and near it Boots of Speed behind a crowd of gr. heroes, decided not to take the Griffin Conservatory without Slow, went and took it on the secondary hero on 2, upgraded the horses in the stables, crashed, took the Griffin Conservatory on respawn on 4, and on 132 immediately the Dragon Utopia on 3 (Shield +4 to All Stats, 12 to Knowledge, and of course the Boots of Levitation, where would we be without them), finally got Earth, crashed, refilled mana, wanted to take the second one but it was max, ended up bringing fodder from the castle and took it on 141 (got the Book of Earth, 12 to Attack and 12 to Defense, Sphere of Air), and on 142 I was already in the red player's castle with stats 29 10 10 10, 8 Angels, 28 Horses, 15 Monks and fodder... the opponent surrendered...

Hermit(red, inferno, Pyrre, Pyrre) def Wlk777(blue, fortress, Vistan, Vistan) panic 137

The starting area has no hiding spots, but it's not lacking in resources. In the first area, I even managed to get a group of 15 Gnomes. In the second area, I found another group of 15 Gnomes, two minimal Naga Banks, and Medusa Huts of levels 6 and 8. I built a Capitol. I might have built a Deserted Palace, but Vistan showed up. I gathered what I could and attacked. I lost even more Magogs than Vistan lost Lizards, but I forced him to retreat and gained some more time. Luckily, in the Pandora's Box, I got 80 Troglodytes. I gathered my forces and went to attack my opponent at the end of the third turn, but he attacked me first. I managed to win.     Thank you for the game.

That happened. If bots can beat LeBron, then I find it ridiculous to expect to win against Vladimir :D. Now, seriously, the distribution wasn't that bad (although I was already out of resources), 3 stacks and built lizard dens. On day 111, I attacked a group of archers for 2 treasures - there were 49 of them with a grand strategist among 10. I got lucky - 3 hydras, 1 lizard, and 5 gnolls. On the first map, everything was good, just no hidden resources, 1-7 in the citadel. There were hidden resources, but very far away (cows and a warlock). On the second map, I scouted and took many treasures, took a lizard den, and my opponent focused on development and by the middle of the week, he had already built a capitol :eek:. I bought almost everyone (except the cows, which was a mistake) - I broke through several guards, and then, completely unexpectedly, Pyr attacked me. The opponent's mass earth elementals decided the game; I only had an advanced one... And I also had little mana (the opponent's +1 all armor was effective). I didn't have any artifacts at all. And I didn't expect the attack at all; I didn't even split up my yellow hydras. I bought myself out with half of my lizards and 3 ducks. After that, things got really bad; in less than a week, the opponent summoned 60+ demons, which is very difficult to beat in panic mode. Thanks for the game, and congratulations to Vladimir on such strong development; I wish you to repeat this in future games.

It happened. He ruined the game, probably the sleepless night affected him. It even got to the point of absurdity; in the last turn, the opponent dozed off, woke up when there were 59 seconds left of his time :D
Thanks for the game.

loi(blue,castle,Valeska,Valeska)def wariator(red,stronghold,Kreg,Kreg) 2sm4d(3) 134 ! There's nothing to add! The army was there! He bragged about collecting money and getting a full house! The blue team didn't think so! Thanks for the game!

In the tavern, 2 native heroes, Tant and Galtran, and under the castle there's an external dwelling of necro horses, plus Aina came as the 5th hero — excellent... My opponent said he's on a roll — so no one's taking the rest :)
On the first week, I grabbed the log, the earth, took out the external dwelling of necro horses and the same in the castle, plus Rampart and Inferno with thousands.
On the second week, I take the medusa dwelling for a low-level master genie external dwelling of liches and a pandora's box with 5000 experience... then a cyclops stockpile of 6 and a maximum conservatory near a side passage GO 42 dread knights. I go into the treasure zone over the sand. The quest artifact for 57 trolls gave me Pathfinding, and it got easier. I snatch a barbarian secondary town in the center, take the external dwelling of behemoths and take out the Angel Wings, no mana — skeletons melt — 131 I flee to Rampart, take the stables and run to the native Dragon Utopia, and the chain brings troops from the treasure zone.
132 Dragon Utopia with 19 dragons, Book of Air, and that's it — I schooled Tant for Resurrection, and in my two castles I built 4 levels and got absolutely nothing.
I run to the treasure zone, the Universe and the Sphere of Earth for a horde of liches, and then a Dragon Fly Hive on the other side finds a blue cap, a pandora's box of Dragon Flies, and a gnome hut — I run there, 20,000 gold.
45,000 gold, everything is bought and upgraded — I build behemoths in the central barbarian castle and move toward the opponent on 137, I break through the GO and open part of the respawn, the chain is ready... can't redrash — I only transfer those I sent for an upgrade and attack, and there's a 1-week population and Solmyr is clearly weaker in stats, albeit with berserk, implosion, and Chain Lightning.
Thanks for the game!
