I was killed by terrible map generation; I didn't even reach the second town. The road was a spiral, and it would have taken 8 days to reach the second town without battles:eek:. After breaking through the blocks, I arrived at block 127 with 90 snakes. I teleported to a location similar to the Gate of the Abyss on the road, broke through, and there were red players - game over.

The Necropolis player completely dominated, even though he arrived with only 20 skeletons. However, on block 113, there was a native Necropolis town, and on the respawn point, there were imps and boots :D. As a result, there were 800+ skeletons on block 141, 6 angels, 28 ducks, and orcish troops+++. Gunnar had no chance.
Thank you for the games.

AYMAN (blue, dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def Wlk777 (red, swamp, Vestan, Vestan) 2sm4d(3), 112.

Valentin chose restarts. I took 111 and ended up with one on the way.

As a result, the distribution was good, Griffin Conservatory strong, Hive near the minotaurs, and I saw red's external dwelling near the orc nomad camp.
But on the second day of the game, Valentin decided not to continue, apparently it wasn't working out.

Thank you, Valentin, for the game and your time!!!!!!!

Thank you, Valentin, for the game and your time !!!!!!!!

It happened, my roads led to ГО and to a mob (which turned out to be 30+) of fanatics, an unplayable setup. Posting such wins is a matter of personal conscience; I wouldn't post it, but I have no complaints against Ayman. Thanks for the game.

Satyr (blue, Castle, Valeska, Tazar) def Van (red, Fortress, Wystan, Wystan) Jebus Cross 134

We picked all the rests. Tons of gold, Tazar arrived, shackles on the respawn, 2 Dragon Utopias, a jug for up to 49 Minotaurs, a library, and +3 to speed (pendant and cape) :eek: . But only 1 Griffin Conservatory and 1 Hive. On the first turn, I only cleared a pandora box for 5k experience, which gave me tactics and water magic. Found a neutral stack of horses for 10+ upgraded Cyclopes. For some reason, I upgraded archers to rank 111, so angels are in the citadel.
On day 121, a Hive (for level 6), on day 122, a Griffin Conservatory triple, where I left swords, a pikeman, and 3 ducks :o. I realize there won't be more army by day 131 :(. On day 123, as poker players say, being on tilt, I attack a mini Dragon Utopia, naturally lose, and am given auto — many thanks for that. I take the jug and on day 125 at the Dragon Utopia :D. At the end of the turn, I came to my senses (80+ Manticores with 5 angels and GS won't hold them no matter what) and turned the horses around. By day 131, I gathered everything from the respawn and just waited for growth. From the observer, I saw the reds break through on day 126 past the hydras — sad. Not far from them, a tome of earth magic :(.
I rushed to that copper mine where I had previously lost, 1k gold, cloak of the rejected :p and boots of speed, in a two-hex area a gladius and a helmet +12. On day 133, with 7 Archangels, 10 horses, and scraps, I break through the Manticores. On day 134, I run toward the cluster of red heroes, killing 99 Liches on the way for a pandora box with 10 horses, and I see Wystan with 3 Archangels. I put on the shackles and gg.
Thanks for the game!

Kash (blue, Conflux, random, Tunar, Tunar) def Soroka (red, Castle, Valeska, Turis), 2sm4d(3), 126

They let me play Conflux, thanks. They offered red, but I got shy and took blue)) Haven't played them in ages, cheesy Castle, even with my noobishness

111 Built air elementals (14 total), slow roads. 4 heroes, I marked Arlash in the main stack, he stands on the path with butterflies/air elementals, Tunar next to him on single imps getting ready to take a couple of creeps. Mercury is available, if we find sulfur in time, birds are on the way. No archers, mages are not in favor
112 2 creep stacks of 5 vampires each with a loss of 9 imps, Tunar got a log. Arlash with the army fights through the path. 6 heroes, ore is available
113 Arlash hit guard of the underground entrance - yellow flies, screw them. Nearby external dwelling of air elementals behind a horde of zombies, doesn't take it, maybe the exp will be useful for Tunar. Takes a chest behind goblins. Tunar on the second road camps a creep near ГО. Peasants shuffle. Respawn is huge, found 2 external dwellings of pixies, a naga bank, and a Dwarf Cottage
114 Deep in the roadless area found gauntlets behind two hordes of zombies, almost next to +2 attack, we send Tunar there. A difficult decision, as it means saying goodbye to the secondary hero and the Dwarf Cottage. Leveled up on a small creep and thieves
115 Tunar only made it to +1 attack. In a completely different area, a peasant finds a stable, external dwelling of earth elementals, a badge of courage, and sees the edge of a Hive. Finally, in a third backwater, slightly less deep, another Dragon Fly Hive and Medusa hovel. We make plans considering the log, stables, and birds to collect all this with the main stack around 124
116 60 fairies and 14 air elementals take down free exp in the form of 2 hordes of zombies and a pack of mummies, we expert the log, pick up the gauntlets. Behind the stable/Dragon Fly Hive, a tiiiiiiny piece of something white appeared, but no doubt about it - it's a Griffin Conservatory :) Birds are there, but not yet claimable. So far only fairies, air elementals, and 3 gremlins have been bought
117 Arlash takes that postponed external dwelling of air elementals, shameful Tunar level 5 with 8-2-2-2 just runs from one backwater to another, finally we take fairies from the second external dwelling. I build a Citadel, because it's still a long run to the Griffin Conservatory

121 Finally, joy - the main stack is a couple of moves away from the stables on 2 birds. The native hero is bought seventh and brings them. The army keeps clearing stuff and slowly gathers in one place
122 Tunar passes through the Dragon Fly Hive (a horde of griffins), grabs a level on small stuff, and runs to the Griffin Conservatory, we upgrade the air elementals
123 At least once per game I have to mega-play-badly...
At the Griffin Conservatory I decided to take 5 birds, 40 storm elementals, 12 gremlins, and about 150 fairies. 9-2, no spellbook and no armor/offense, but anything still falls. In theory) Anyway, I forgot to position my troops, just jumped in. Good thing it's only a 3-stack, I came out with 23 storm elementals. Well, mega-noobish, but what can you do)) We take down the Dragon Fly Hive guard with angels and storm elementals and camp it, but don't take it, no one to drop the storm elementals. Got advanced armor
124 A pre-max Dragon Fly Hive and with the last cell on the angel, we sit in the Castle, buy the spellbook. Splitting wasn't worthwhile. We set people on the external dwelling of earth elementals, the lookout post, and the Dwarf Cottage in different corners
125 Arlash takes the Dwarf Cottage, peasants take the external dwelling, at the lookout post we lost 2 Wyverns. We move everything except the remaining Wyverns to Tunar, he takes the bank for 4, loses the army to peasants, and with angels takes down 44 cerberi from the second Dragon Fly Hive, can't reach the cell next to it. Plans to take the Dragon Fly Hive (turned out to be max) and then rush to the treasure zone, the entrance to which Arlash should supposedly find tomorrow
126 Red spots me expanding (their secondary hero turned out to be nearby in the roadless area, I hadn't gotten around to scouting there yet). Turis attacks with a small army - 43 marksmen, 3 cavaliers, a bunch of pokemon. The angels killed everyone and buried Turis, no losses on our side.
Honestly, even with the whole army they didn't have much of a chance - I was buying creatures and on my turn hitting back with all my might and +12 Wyverns

Thank you for the game

Wow, I wrote quite a bit.. Couldn't sleep for some reason :)

So, it was like a debut on Jebus, a super-rich template, on the native respawn from the piles of gold - a whole two Gnolls :D , from artifacts a sword +2/2 - a whole one, and that's it :D , the only joy was 5 Dragon Fly Hives, at 125 I have 40 ducks, I break the GO, hoping for a Dragon Utopia in the center, but it's not there, I sweep everything I see, of value besides Pandora's Boxes with experience - a Book of Earth for 40 Beholders, with 8 Serpents that get morale on the first turn and take all the Hydras, and in the Pandora's Box they give 3 Archangels, I set up the Pope on 3 Archangels to get a few swings of Explosion in, buy myself out, and with the power hold out in town, but there it's total chaos - bracelets, and Cloak of the Undead King, plus stat-boosting imba artifacts.
Thanks for the game.

yes, it was, on the first turn I set up a Castle, but didn't find troops on the second, passed by two Griffin Conservatories, one of them was a tier 3, for me it's not real with 3 horses (((

Hermit(red, inferno, Pirre, Pirre) def Lider1(blue, necropolice, Tant, Tant) 8mm6a 234

It was a tough game! There were many setbacks, but I still managed to win. The start seemed good: I captured a brown Castle in the first six days. Pirre, a level 5 expert in logistics and artillery, is there. But then... In the second week, I had no money, so I went to the Medusa's lair. It turned out to be a level 6 lair, and they petrified all the Efreet and killed them all – I only managed to escape with one Efreet, losing more than 90% of my army :( I barely managed not to surrender... Then I bought some Creatures of Evil and took a few more resource buildings. I spent the whole week playing on the verge of defeat... I searched the entire map, but there was nothing, and I had 0 money. I was happy even to find a Treasure and a Crypt, and if I came across a Naga Bank, that was a real celebration. I couldn't buy anyone; my army was weak, and my main force was Hellhounds! I had two outposts, but not on my main territory, but quite far from the city. The Efreet were losing strength, and I couldn't get enough of them by the end of the game... I captured my main town. Then, that pink guy took it from me. Actually, I shouldn't have been so cocky back then because he built a Fort there. Later, I thought this map didn't have any Mermaids, but then my opponent told me that he had taken three Mermaids and had a full set of artifacts for Necromancy... I started to feel uneasy. Although Tant's stats weren't scary. I rushed around the map, exploring all the zones. I found a few Hives and Conservatories, but it felt like someone had already been there and collected everything. Finally, very far underground, where the pink and orange players were, probably in zone 18, I found an Outpost, and from there, very, very far away, I saw a Mermaid, a Hive, and two Naga Banks. But Tant was already coming. I managed to reach the Naga Bank. I exchanged all my resources on the market and moved about 90% of my army from the city of Enove, but there were Imps and a few Hellhounds left for Tant to fight the skeletons. Tant recaptured my capital and went for the outposts; by the way, there were only 530 skeletons. Kiryusha, with his Rocs, prevented the blue scouts from reaching the Stronghold. Pirre, with Nimbus, took the Treasure and the Naga Bank at once, and also the Mermaid. The Creatures of Evil were battered in the Mermaid :( only 22 of them remained, but I couldn't take the Hive – I wouldn't have enough moves to reach the Mermaid, and I needed money for a bribe – in case Tant attacked. But now I have more than 50,000 to bribe Enove. But Tant isn't going for it; he's killing the Earth Elemental horde and, for some reason, not taking the Ring of Health from them. In the Mermaid, I got the Titan Helmet and chainmail +4 to attack and defense. On the next turn, I took the Hive, then another one, and in general, I was thinking about how to get out of these... hmm, edges... because everyone had dug in there. I took two Pandora Boxes for 10,000 experience and gold, and Tant went to my Treasure. He scouted me from the Outpost, and I positioned myself so that he would go deeper into it behind me, but I pretended to be returning and wanted to avoid meeting him. I have money for a bribe, but I'm very afraid of the War Lock. Enova breaks through zone 15 into zone 3. Tant attacked with more than 1000 skeletons, but he had few other troops. I hesitated to run, and I managed to kill all of Tant's troops with almost no losses, except for a few skeletons, of course. But at the end, when they were all killed, my opponent cast Haste on the skeletons, and they killed all five of my Angels! He finished them off with a Lightning Bolt and then I bribed him (I could have turned the Angels into Demons, but never mind). I bribed him in the Stronghold, which previously belonged to the brown player. Now, the main danger was that Tant might have a Town Portal (he has the Earth Expertise) and could teleport directly to my capital. But no, my opponent tried to attack with scouts, but the Treasure is very well-defended (I was also afraid that he would break through Tant into the capital), and he bribed the pink player who was running around there nearby. After taking three Mermaids, he probably has a lot of money... But no, and Pirre took it back on Sunday and started building up there. The following week, I bought everyone, strengthened the Stronghold, and fled to zone 9, where a Hive and a Cyclops Cave were spotted. I managed to build a Guild Hall 4 in the capital and learned Phantom and Resurrection there. I also have scrolls with Meteor Shower and Counterspell. I took the Cyclops Cave, the Hive, and then I saw another Hive, so I took that one too. At the same time, the Creatures of Evil were turning dogs and Rocs into Demons. I saw another Hive. Kiryusha attacked a Castle town with two Efreet, but there were 27 Griffins there – a loss. (Was I stupid?). On the next turn, Tant captured this Castle town, but he didn't have enough moves to settle there. I entered it, bought Pikemen and Archers to turn into Demons. The Archers died in the Hive, but the Pikemen were preferred by the Imps to kill the Creatures of Evil... I shouldn't have divided them into two squads, but then I attacked the Wolves again and turned the Pikemen into them. I didn't settle in the town; I built a Market there, exchanged all the resources, and I still had 6000 for a bribe... Tant attacked, and I managed to kill him!!! Mainly because of the large stack of Demons and the Phantom spell... Thanks for the game!!!

Thanks for the game

PS: All the artifacts were related to Necromancy, but I didn't use any of them, as agreed before the game, because, like Gosha, I'm a cheater.

ps2: I only showed you 530 skeletons; there were a few hundred more (from the noob).

After respawns, I spawned at the top with three stacks of Troglodytes. Scouted the respawn and got discouraged — the secondary guard was Grand Elves, the other path led to the ГО.
I break through the Elves, losing almost all my troops (luckily I had gold and bought cats, they saved me), while sending a Scout with Eyes from two heroes, Grand Harpies, and 4 Mages (picked up from a camp) through the rough terrain.
As a result, on the second day I have three towns, a ton of gold, 6 levels in the native town's castle from the first day, and I see a path to the enemy bypassing the ГО.
On the third day, I clear secondary Dwarf Cottages and Crypts and gather gold. On the fourth day, I upgrade everything and head through the path to the enemy. Managed to take down Loynis in the castle.
Thanks for the game.

It was a long but very interesting game. At one point it seemed that everyone was pinned down in the treasure zone, but the blues, after retaking the last castle, decided to wait until I came out myself, which I eventually did, while hiring one rusty dragon on the way, which helped a lot later...
In the beginning, everything seemed great. I gathered 30 wyverns, but the contents of the Dragon Utopia made very large adjustments to my rosy plans :D In the first one, I got 2 spheres, a frame and boots +15 resist, and in the second maxed-out one—dragon helmet and armor, titan helmet and plate....:( I saw a golden bow at the respawn of the secondary town—I rushed there, but then the blues hit ГО and took my castle :eek:
With nothing left to do, I took the bow and ran into an unknown treasure zone, the blues following me...
I managed to build up ducks to 50 units; when taking the external dwelling of the rusties, a stack of ducks skipped their turn due to anti-morale—resulting in -100+ caps... Earth and Tactics were stubbornly not offered until the end of the game :( Then the last secondary town fell. The blues, having gathered Pandoras, rushed home, and Nila raced toward it as fast as possible... A couple of days before the deadline, I retook the secondary town and again went into the unknown, to the treasure zone by the secondary town... Found a couple more trees, totaling 60+ ducks. Then unexpectedly I stumble upon 2 Dragon Utopias standing right next to each other :smile44: They gave me an Earth book, a blue cap, and some same-old stuff. But there was only enough magic for one jump and the blues again took the ill-fated secondary town; I approach the border of the treasure zone, picking up a Pandora for 20 snipers on the way, and jump onto the snow, closer to the well—the blues happily run toward me :p I feel that an FB in the open field will be fatal; the blues have a horde of upgraded ducks, many gorgons, a crowd of shooters, flies, and angels (damn, I didn't see a single cons throughout the whole game :confused: ) I reach the well, a few moves away from the blue folder... terrified and with my last strength, I jump into the bushes far away from him :D the blues follow me but can't reach... I jump back to the well and happily prepare to settle in my castle, but again I'm short by 1 step :( on the next move, the blues still can't reach me and then I see that I can settle in an empty Fortress :smile44: Plenty of money—I upgrade 61 wyverns and wait for the attack... the blues pass the army and artifacts along a chain to oshka and he attacks... as I suspected, the red ball was present, but a large difference in stats, despite the artifacts, helped very easily kill 59 wyverns, losing only 3, and the opponent left... not a game, but some kind of endless chase :D If it weren't for those last 2 Dragon Utopias and the blue cap, I would have been screwed :)
Thanks for an interesting game

It happened. On the 1st, freed Mephala on the 5th, Castle secondary, 1-6 in the castle + 2 external dwellings of gnolls and flies. 2nd didn't decide on a main hero and leveled 2 on different resps 3rd native secondary and some small things 4th Vistan takes the council(3) while Mephala(4), and finally decided on a main, Vistan breaks ГО and takes the capital of the 2nd; tried to catch up with Nela in the treasure zone then gave up, took the last town and went into the treasure zone himself and didn't regret it: 2 Dragon Utopia(gave Orb of Forbidding), a bunch of hives, basically pinned Nela in the last treasure zone and waited for the moment of truth. Clear superiority in one-unit meat, tired of long chases, decided to try and finish off with a level 1 fluke but it wasn't meant to be...

Thanks for the game!
