WT is the best!!!!

Sorry for the off-topic. I just really like this version, and I also lost a tournament here.

07.03.2010, FireToSky (blue, Conf, Labeta, Goshan) def numOne (red, Shakti), Balance L+U, 137, The Shadow of Death
The template is difficult, plus Goshan, so turns averaged about 15 minutes each!
111 - Goshan appears as the 5th hero, on
112 - I'm leveling up Expert Sorcery
113 - 9 heroes (1 from prison)
By the end of the week I take a village, put psychos in the citadel
On week 2 I take 2 Naga Banks, a level-2 Griffin Conservatory, break through to the portal in the metro
At the end of week 2, beginning of week 3 I take 3 Tower villages, 1 Necro village, a Necro fort, and a Conf fort. By 135 I build Mage Guild 5 in Conf, and there's Town Portal, Berserk, and Implosion, I also found Armageddon in a scroll! Labeta uses Town Portal, gathers a bunch of Gremlins - turns them into Skeletons = almost 500 Skeletons, as a result on 137 Shakti runs in on grass with Haste and lands in a village on an Angel, causing Goshan with Haste to simply run up to him and GG!
Thanks for the game!
P.S. BT is the best!

07.03.2010 Gomunguls (Red, Conflux, random, Brissa, Luna) def bRitvo4kA (Blue, Stronghold, Gunnarsson, Gunnarsson) 2SM4d(3), 2.2.6

Great start, plenty of gold... I build 2 Griffin Conservatories... capture the Stronghold secondary town... start constructing birds in the capital... on the second day I see the opponent rushing to my secondary town's respawn... breaking through all there, he runs towards me... I attack... cast Mass Curse and off we go... I win! And only a few units remain... I start gathering forces again and run to the passage to the opponent's respawn... (Can't break through GO, there are 5 Rust Dragons or 100+ Cyclops Kings)... I go the long way around, I am attacked again with Griffin Conservatory birds and 4 Angels... another battle which I win again... retreat back... the Griffin Conservatory at respawn is maxed out and impossible to take with the army I have... nowhere to train... the opponent's speed is enormous... soon I built level 5 magic, including Implosion... and a long chase began... after some time I arrived at the enemy's secondary town, with Gunnarsson sitting there... he was crushed against me and then captures my Conflux... more long pursuits... in the end I captured all towns and blockaded Gunnarsson at respawn... he tried to break out... but I managed to catch him... I won the battle!!!
Thanks for the game!!!
P.S. That wore me out)) I haven't run that long in a while))... Flight saved me!!!

Gomunguls (Red, Conflux, random Brissa, Luna) def bRitvo4kA (Blue, Stronghold, Gurnisson, Gurnisson), 2SM4d(3), 226

Week 1: boots, shield, pendant of swiftness, secondary Castle off-road, 1257 in the castle.
Week 2: external dwelling of horses, mini beehives. Gathering growth, I approach the opponent.
-124 attacks. Mass curse took the first levels out of the game, and with quicksand and lightning I finished off the strike stacks.
With the remaining forces I break the Griffin Conservatory minimal, the unreleased wolves helped. Inferno secondary, 2 medusa dens, I lose the Castle secondary.
Week 3: armor+1, Griffin Conservatory 3-tier.
-without the spell book, I hastily attack the approaching Luna, and again have to retreat. No money, I buy back only after a turn and with the spell book I take the Griffin Conservatory 2-tier. Air expertise but no Haste. I clear the poor underground treasure zone - 2 beehives (12 Wasps), I take the Castle secondary.
Week 4:
-I take Naga Bank 4 and attack again. This time, the unpleasant surprise was Implosion. Leaving the opponent alive with 1 bird and several water elementals.
With the new capital growth I take 2 Naga Banks and the opponent's Stronghold secondary, a beehive there as well.
-I couldn't break the walls for a long time, and you can't kill much with ranged fire. Conflux does not submit, bought back with a behemoth and small fry in the capital.
Luna blocks my exit from the castle with Flight but does not attack.
-147 with Tactics I buy back
-and from the secondary I reach Conflux and sit in it.
Week 5: I escape with 3 birds (with what money I had) and take the other Stronghold secondary. Opponent flies over the ГО and takes back his town. I go into the snow treasure zone, but there's nothing to gain there besides boxes and unbreakable blocks, so I return and deliberately expose myself with 3 birds.
-defending the secondary, I was just a bit short on meat
-they attack, I buy back in Inferno and take back my capital.
Week 6: I go down, bring out 2 Behemoths, take an external dwelling of Angels and a Naga Bank, then a dead end, but I have money to buy back.
-key moment of the game! Having only 5 Goblins left, they take the strategic secondary.
-on the last step, using Flight, they reach it, nowhere to buy back - ГГ. From the Inferno secondary, I could have gone into the swamp treasure zone with a decent army (Pathfinding expertise was present).

Thanks for one of the most interesting games I've had in a while!

03/07/2010 BA/IEHOK (blue, Haven, Nela, Gurney) def Sevan_80 (red, Inferno, Ignatius, Ignatius) 2SM4d(3), 121

on the third day, with my main hero and two scouts, I destroy 3 goblin lairs.
result of the week: victories in the Stronghold.
at 121, the opponent loses twice :(

03/07/2010 Van (red, Inferno, Pyra, Pyra) def Wlk777 (blue, Castle, Valiska, Valiska) Panic 132
Well, it was my debut with Inferno, the first hellish week, but I managed to get some pits in the Castle, and then things started to improve. And when I had 30+ demons, it was just awesome. And it seems my opponent had a bit of a problem. :D On turn 127, I nuked Valkyrie, who unfortunately ran out of mana and got herself killed, along with all the marksmen and the horse. On turn 132, he surrendered.
Thanks for the game.

03/07/2010 Van (red, Inferno, Pyra, Pyra) def Wlk777 (blue, Castle, Valiska, Valiska) Panic 132

It was a strange game – we were both moving units towards each other for a whole day. It’s a pity that I managed to break through with less than a hundred gold worth of troops, and not my opponent. If that had happened, I would have had the mana advantage, and the outcome would have been different. Thanks for the game.

07.03.2010, Psyche_7(red,Necropolis,Galthran,Galthran) def Skuns(blue,Kyrre,Kyrre), 2sm4d(3), 215, WT

Bought color and Castle for 1100(!).
Tried Necropolis in WT. Liked it. On 111 upgraded skeletons, take down the Griffin Conservatory 1 and off we go. Eh, little vampires ).

Psyche_7(red,Necropolis,Galthran,Galthran) def Skuns(blue,Kyrre,Kyrre), 2sm4d(3), 215, WT

Confirmed.

03/07/2010, Sevan_80 (red, Castle, Valeska, Valeska) def Dima Surmay (blue, Rampart, Kairie, Kairie), 2sm4d(3), 141 Thanks for the game.

FireToSky (blue, Conflux, Labeta, Goshan) def numOne (red, Shakti), Balance L+U, 137, The Shadow of Death

Couldn't do anything against Goshan.

Thanks for the game.

07.10.2010 Loi(red,confl,Fiur) lose Grrrr(blue,dung,Shakti) 2sm4d(3) 117
Couldn't even recruit psychics, atypical poverty for a grass map, and didn't find the ore mine; Shakti's stats were already twice as high — went on tilt, attacked 20+ air elementals twice — the second time was a wipe.

07.10.2010 Loi(red,dung,Shakti) def Grrrr(red,ramp,Kyrre) 2sm4d(3) 131
The opponent had double, but I had triple — already after 114 :). At 131, with 9 angels, 90+ evil eyes, 100 troglodytes, and nearly 30 greater harpies with Mass Haste, I broke through via a adjacent zone to the opponent's respawn — red said GG.
Thanks for the games and the positive vibe.

08.03.2010 Erdem (Blue, Swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def RomarioGrom (Red, Conflux, Erdamon, Moner), 2sm4d(3), 234

We agreed to play without a rush, with a swamp versus conflux pairing. We had a good run on the slow roads. There were only 2 Dragon Utopias on the entire map (home bases); Tazar took one (level 2), and Moner took the other (mini). I spent a long time looking for control in response to Moner's jumps; we probably cleared almost the entire map (a scroll of flight and built Mage Guilds helped), and in the end, I found a level 5 chest. The outcome of the final battle was decided by 63 griffin riders with teleportation across the field and about 150 ducks. Neither 6 storytellers, nor berserkers, nor implants, nor Mass Slowdown helped Moner because Tazar’s resistance was 40%. In the finale, I replaced dragon armor with plate armor for my own implant, giving it 2k defense. At the end, Moner cast Armageddon, but the resistance worked on almost everyone; only Vasili and dragonflies died. Thanks to Rome for a worthy game that brought me to the brink of a nervous breakdown several times. =)

Erdem (Blue, Swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def RomarioGrom (Red, Conflux, Erdamon, Moner), 2sm4d(3), 234

It happened... on the 2nd I took secondaries of Dungeon, Castle and Necropolis (which is what we fought over :)) on the 3rd via Dragon Utopia (mini but gave wings) I took the necs and rushed straight to the treasure zone; I was afraid to go because Tazar's stats were very high (but after clearing the whole map, he still didn't catch up), I knew the swamp had a double build but didn't care at all (I had the orb and cloak of prohibition + expert berserk, which is what I banked on) and so after more than 12 hours of tense gameplay and FB to my surprise berserk helped me with nothing, and without it Tazar's attack in the open field is suicide :smile32:

Thanks for an interesting game!!!

03/08/2010, shadow of a homeless person (blue, Necropolis, Galtran) def Yourdestiny (red, Rampart, Kairin) 2sm4d(3), 125 my first rush in Heroes :) seems like it turned out pretty well GG thanks for the game
