Terek (red, Stronghold, Dessa, Dessa) 2sm4d(3) 213.

surrendered beautifully :)
already on the second day, secondary
on the first week
I see 3 Griffin Conservatories, efreeti in the Citadel, Armageddon near the castle

on week 4, Dessa with a huge army caught up to Pyre with 6 efreeti and 4 angels, caught an Armageddon for 620

on the fifth, I break ГО with 14 efreeti, the opponent's weekly growth runs past and dies
:smile51: Armageddon is already 870

opponent decided not to continue

thanks for the game
thanks for moving quickly

I didn't even expect such a rout! The opponent's Armageddon wiped out almost the entire army! I started to look for a counter, but Pyre wiped out all the growth, no point in struggling further! Thanks for the experience!

ГО is not on the road, double build, 2 stacks of Troglodytes. At the beginning of the second week I take Conflux2 and with 2 Angels, 315 Troglodytes I invade... In the FB, with equal parameters, the advantage in troops gave me the victory. Thanks for the game.

On the first day I lingered on the home respawn, farming skeletons; there were 2 blackies, because the secondary towns had shooting blockers. I scouted 2 external wolf dwellings, an external gob dwelling, an external ogre dwelling, a candle, two Griffin Conservatories, checked one with a scout hero, and planned to clear skeletons on the second one — the density of neutrals was amazing for a necro strategy. By the end of the week, a couple of conservatories, set up bears, and head out on a raid to the ГО, but the overly impatient opp decided to rush the ГО on 121 and failed. In principle, on the second day, there were already nearly 50 griffins, 5 birds, close to a hundred gobs and skeletons; without Tactics and Mass Slow, I think I could have fended it off :D.
Thank you for the game.

Confirming!
For 1 week I scoured the respawn, there were only two exits: the gate to the underground for 20-49 ogres (passage to the opponent) and 20-49 archmages at the secondary town's respawn (Stronghold). On day 121 I broke through the mages, but couldn't reach the secondary town — 20-49 upgraded cyclopes are blocking the path and guarding an artifact along the way.
Week 1 turned out like this: 12456 + Stronghold. On week 2 I decided to go for devils. I calculated all the stacks on the map, broke through absolutely everything visible on both respawns (native and secondary), took the external dwelling of efreets, took the imp dwelling on day 122, and on day 123 I tried to take the medusa dwelling (eight creatures), but lost, leaving only 3 medusas! We stalled twice. The opponent gave me an autosave, and attacked on the very next turn, so the devils would have been built on days 126-127, but the time was only day 124 :(
Thank you for the game!
Devils aren't worth going for, neither in the first week nor the second (my imho). Better to go cut demons — 45-65 demons by days 124-126 will solve far more than 1-2 devils.

Haven (Blue, Castle, Gurnisson, Vokial) def Lebron

What does impatience have to do with it? The only chance to somehow get back into the game was to unexpectedly rush and try to catch the Barbarians off guard, but without a powerful spellbook and luck, 35 Hydras with Gurnisson didn't want to die.
Thank you.

20-25 Hydras without Grand Skill would break through in 50% of cases, and for the situation I was in, a 50% chance to somehow get back into the game isn't that bad.

It was a bluff, and the Hydras got rekt :D :D :D :D :D

then it's more like a coin flip :) good to see you're enjoying the off-topic discussion.
220 caps, 10 mages, gr gargoyles, and ex-ranged shooters, Ivory can do a lot, but today wasn't their day. Topic closed ;)

I got curious and tried it out... Army: 220 Gremlins, 10 Mages, 33 Gargoyles, 18 Golems, Ivor 6-7-1-1, skills: ranged attack, attack, advanced armor vs 25 Hydras. On snow. Morale was turned off - I took a charm and a ring +1 health, there is terrain, but it didn't really matter. In short, it's a quite realistic gameplay scenario. Without a cart, the arrows ran out at the end, and I had to fight with my hands; 130 Gremlins remained. In principle, it's possible to win if the Hydras don't have morale, but what to do next with such an army on the 2nd week is unclear. Does this make sense only if you can jump into the castle? Well, and I haven't seen a GO with 25 Hydras yet, usually there are at least 30:)

What can I say, played 2 games with this fellow. In the first one I lost, in the second one with an excellent setup (3 Griffin Conservatories and 2 Hives on respawn) the opponent decided not to continue... However, something tells me this player is not a Новичок in the game (although maybe he lacks online experience), I think he will quickly figure things out. I will play with him again, hope it will be interesting. Thanks for the game.

What can I say, I played 2 games with this fellow, in the first I lost, in the second with an excellent layout (3 Griffin Conservatorys and 2 Hives on respawn) the opponent decided not to continue... However, something tells me that this player is not a novice in the game (although maybe he has little online experience), I think he will quickly figure out what's what. I will play with him again, I hope it will be interesting. Thanks for the game.

It happened. I confirm! It's a pity that twice we ended up nowhere. Oh well, everything is ahead.
What can I say, I didn't expect Inferno's lands to be so poor... And the territory generates so stupidly. A lot will depend on the initial layout for them. Well, no matter, a couple more times and we'll find a loophole for them. I could have continued, but ......
My hero got hit on the head by upgraded Kents (48 of them) on turn 113. Only 13 cokes remained, and I started to panic and for a couple of moves I couldn't find the right thing. And in Heroes, a couple of moves lead to a very big loss of tempo. Then, after learning from the opponent about the Griffin Conservatorys, after thinking it over and weighing everything, I decided not to waste the person's time, although it's not my style! :)
It's a pleasure to play with a smart player!
Thanks for the game. I look forward to a rematch. I will explore Inferno.

Simple (blue, Dungeon, Gunnar, Cunnar) def FireToSky (red, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) Jebus, 141

Took 2 dwelling mines and 1 cat. On the second map, I cleared the respawn point a bit, found 16 ducks, a couple of pandoras for experience, and killed Cyclops to proceed to the center.

On the 3rd map, I took 5 or 6 Utopians, which gave me stats and all the books. There wasn't much of a fight in the final, the meat advantage and the stat difference were too big.

Thanks for the game.

Yeah, that's how it was. Uncle Simple punished me and the respawn point was terrible.
Thanks for the game!

numOne (red, inferno, Kalth, Aislin) def Van (blue, barb, Gunnison, Vokial), balance, 143

Aislin and Moander arrive - I start necromancing :) Aislin got Earth and Tactics, rushed the Dwarf Cottage on turn 15, Moander experted Necromancy, helps gather on the sidelines. Painted my native village, put Efreets in the Citadel in the capital, 100+ skeletons.
On the second +1 Angel, Dwarf Cottage on turn 10, Medusa huts on turn 8, +1 attack in secondary stats, I replenish mana there, go off-road to the grass. By the end of the second I have 300+ skeletons, took another Griffin Conservatory on turn 2, painted a Conflux village, building a Mage Guild in the capital, Aislin experted Necro and Earth, got Air.
On the third - Shield +3, Dwarf Cottage on turn 20, upgrade on Efreets and Gogs, Mage Guild gave Portal - excellent! I broke through GO, Aislin is already 9 11 14 11, Meteor deals 450, 700+ skeletons, I paint another Conflux, Sword 2/2.
At the start of the fourth I meet Vokial, who broke through his GO and stands on 7 Angels and 300 skeletons, I attack, kill 6 Angels and 200+ skeletons, the opponent buys peace. The next turn I attack the castle, deploy, the just-acquired Catapult skill allows me to break the gate on the first shot, Mass Haste - gg.

Thanks for the game!
