Thanks for the game.

Thank you for the game.

March 14, 2010 OUTLAW (red, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor) def Dubrovin Pavel (blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti), 2SM4d(3), 1-2-7

It was a game.

In the first week - At the beginning, everything was good, 2 primary towns, 150+ Trogols, a secondary town with a Manticore, and a secondary Citadel. 1-6 in the Fortress with a Portal and ransom.

In the second week - a secondary primary town, managed to buy 8 Greater Manticores, with which I decided to go to Igor's Necropolis secondary town (since I couldn't find anywhere else to go for money) and take the exposed Medusa Hut (it turned out to be level 8), gathered money there, added another Manticore (13 in total), built a Portal in the secondary town and summoned 2 more... I decided not to retreat, took Igor's Necropolis secondary town, Earth Expert, but no Slow. I attacked Ivor, but I was shot down, not even getting close to the 29 Elves, although I could have, in the middle, when I broke through the Kentaur, hit 9 Greater Manticores on the Elves, but I decided to kill the Angels, blocking the Elves' shot. Then Igor regrouped, and there were not enough Elves left. The fact that I didn't hit the Elves, I might have made a mistake, but it's too late to fix it now...

Thanks to Igor for the game!

We decided on faction selection via randomizer. It gave Conflux vs Conflux. We didn't haggle over heroes, started with random.

First week was modest. Only 4 heroes total, saved money. Went into the underground but ran into blockades. Placed Birds in the Citadel.

On the second week, I went to my village in a mini-treasure. I kicked myself for it the whole game, as I felt I lost a lot of tempo. All I got from it was +5 Attack and a mini Griffin Conservatory. The area was unexplored and I found nothing else, except a Dragon Utopia. At the end of the week, I rushed home to take the Hive sitting right in front of the town.

Well, I went on the third week, and it's a mini. Lucky me. Then I went into another underground, broke through blockades, and on the way to the Crimson-Blue I found 3 Hives. In total, 24 Wyverns. By the end of the week, I was actually embarrassed.

But on 137, pleasant news: I break through Gobs from the Metro on the run, and there stands the opponent's scout hero with 4 Birds and 9 Psychos. By buying him off, he gave me money, which I desperately lacked. Along the way, I nipped a scout hero with 6 Wyverns, and with that scout hero I picked up a Ring of Speed. I set up a chain from home.

On 141, the growth is neatly delivered to the GG, but I didn't make it to the Castle.

On 142, the assault on the Castle. A fairly difficult fight, where I made many mistakes. It's been a long time since I conducted an FB that required thinking. Kreg was heavily blasting with Lightning, but the Ballista luckily broke the wall, and my blessed melee units forced a close-quarters fight in which I won.

Thanks for the interesting FB!

Don't forget to include the date when submitting your entry... otherwise, the game won't be recorded.

Pradromalo (blue, Fortress, Westan, Westan) def Loi (red, Fortress, Kreg Hack, Kreg Hack) 2smd4(3), 116

Time-wise, this is the first game in the "neutrals (tempo) def Barbarian" series. I assume that the statistics for games with Barbarians in the spring of 2010 will be significantly lower than the average for the seasons. :)
Thank you for the game.

15.03.2010 Lider1(red, fortress, Bronhild, Bronhild) def TSL (blue, rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) 8MM6 145 WT

On the first turn, hydras in the fort. External dwelling of vassals and gnolls.

On the second turn, a village for own use, and I performed a diversion and stole the opponent's main town. Nearby is an overview; I see an external dwelling of elves, horses, and centaurs. Not bad, I think... By the way, I picked up +6 attack and shackles of war while moving. And at the respawn, oh look, I took a mini hive.

But TSL didn't give up, and rightly so, because it would be foolish to surrender with your own computer and 4 external dwellings of units. You shouldn't have told me that; otherwise, I would have run after you and maybe gotten a beating.

On the third turn, I run to the blue's mini-treasure; there I took an external dwelling of red dragons, the arena, university, boots, thinned out some ducks, well, and a Tower village.

At 142, I see the blue moving. Mini Dragon Utopia at 143 with a red orb :) But it's irrelevant since my stats are higher, 200 mana and a bolt for 300 damage. On the other hand, there is money to buy things. The enemy doesn't sleep and runs straight toward my home town. But no matter. Bronhild has 3350 moves even with one-day boots. I block the monolith he came out of, and he has a choice: run to my capital or to me; there was also an option to go to the yellow computer, but he clearly decided to attack me. Not meant to be, though :D, fell 7 cells short. But Bronhild made it :D Combined armies and attacked. Well, with such a company, I won easily.

Thanks for the game!

03/15/2010 Lider1 (red, Fortress, Bronhild, Bronhild) def TSL (blue, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) 8MM6 145 WT

Confirmed. In the second week, I defeated my teammate, annexed his unicorn dwellings, and reinforced my castle. However, I neglected my own. I decided to develop the new territory, as it was better than the previous one. I waited for the opponent to attack, but he didn't show up. I fought against other teammates, but it got boring. I went to attack the red player's capital, but I didn't make it. They caught up with me and gave my unicorns a hard time.
Dilemma: If Tyris was already a top-tier hero for the castle, now she's simply a Star! But is it worth playing as Kyrre throughout the entire game, secretly hoping that Clancy will show up at the tavern?

Lider1 - thank you for the lesson.

14.03.2010 SEM_56 (blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def OUTLAW (red, Castle, Valeska, Alkin) 2smd4(3), 137
Took all rests, same-seed distribution was great, 3 stacks and 2 native heroes - 184 troglodytes in total. At 112 I take the council for 2 angels (-50 troglodytes due to morale). Secondary is Rampart, in the corner there's a nest of green dragons. At 116 I hit 90 flies with almost no losses and take the nest. I place a summoning portal and buy a dragon. Result of week 1-4: citadel, portal and nest, Shakti with logistics and wisdom, 2 treasure zones opened. At 121 I take the prev. max hive, in sequence the scout takes Nagash's for 15 nags. Shakti buys a book and at 122 is near the treasure zone. At 123 hits 85 storms, they give all water, then 90 medusas - 20 core griffins. I continue through the snows, they give some experience and magic. At 127 I hit black knights and take the angels' nest...
131-133 took 3 hives, lost 2 dragons and 100 troglodytes(((
At 135 Dragon Utopia mini, they gave an earth book!!!
I double my mana, hit 28 devils, then the horde of nags and reach Igor's native secondary. I build a stable there and at 137 with momentum reach the capital where Alkin is sitting. He only has 5 mana, 5 of my wisps survived, thanks for a great battle!!!

Confirmed.
I remember there were hidden Swordsmen and Monks, and there was a catastrophic shortage of gold, which resulted in a lot of unsold meat in the capital. I took a Consul (3), scouted the nearby treasure, but it was a complete mess... or rather, there was nothing at all. I skipped it, hoping that Roman would let me reach turn 141, because on the secondary Stronghold, I scouted a maximum Utopia, and not far from the capital, there was another Utopia. I also saw a dragon at the opponent's base on turn 1, and I understood that it was a hidden unit + portal, and I might get my butt kicked soon))). But I wasn't allowed to reach the 4th week; in the Final Fight, there simply wasn't enough meat, which was treacherously sitting unsold in the capital (a lot of Griffons, Monks, and "Pokemon").
Thank you, Roman, for the game!!

15.03.2010 SEM_56 (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def Sevan_80 (blue, Castle, Valeska, Sorcha) 2smd4(3), 116
Took all the rests; they gave out incredibly great stuff, tons of nyk, cons, and gold (almost Jebus Cross). At 116 I took the minos nyk, even though there were still plenty of nyk from levels 1-4. The opponent surrendered due to a lack of prospects. Upon reviewing the save and further opening the home respawn, it turned out: 10 cons, tons of nyk, and Dragon Utopia)))
Thanks for your time, we started a new one...
P.S. saves are attached for study)))

03/15/2010 SEM_56 (blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def Sevan_80 (red, Castle, Valeska, Sorcha) 2smd4(3), 211
The opponent took all the resources, and the distribution was good. My secondary town and the ability to summon minor demons and cats...
On turn 4, I broke through the Grand Order and took the castle, and then on turn 211, Valeska, without castles, attacks Shakti and bravely loses. Thanks for the game!

The opponent took all the rests, the distribution was good. Native secondary and nicknames of minos and cats...
On the 4th I broke through ГО and took the castle, and then at 211 Valeska without castles attacks Shakti and courageously loses, thx for the games)))

Took all the rests, distribution was damn great, a bunch of nicknames, cons and money (almost Jebus Cross). At 116 I took the minos nickname, although there were still plenty of nicknames from level 1-4. The opponent surrendered due to lack of prospects. Upon reviewing the save and further opening the native respawn it turned out: 10 cons, a bunch of nicknames and Dragon Utopia)))

That happened, thanks for the game

16.10.2010 Loi(blue,castle,Valeska) def wiggle8509(red,strong,Kreg) 2sm4d(3) 135
On the first, there are cavaliers at the Citadel, 4 external dwellings — pickets, one of them — archers. On the second, a Pandora's Box with 10k experience for 50+ crusaders, an angel external dwelling. On the third — also not bad, but the opponent conceded in the max-naga bank.
Thanks for the game.

Glad the forum is working))))

The beginning was normal, we took all the resources...by day 1 I built everything I needed. cleared the respawn...went GG to fight at the end of the week, but there wasn't enough gold left to buy creatures...while I was traveling I found gold and a telescope..there I spot a Dragon Fly Hive and a Griffin Conservatory...on day 2 I brought the army there and rushed the Griffin Conservatory(3)..luck was with them and they killed a lot((then I went after the Dragon Fly Hive...at the end of the week I'm assaulting the GO(19 chaos hydras without slow)losing a couple of archers and a wyvern. I learned expert water for nothing, there were no water spells at all(((...the opponent surrendered on the next turn!
Thanks for the game!!!
