Y11 (Krag, Orcs) defeated Gastello (Ingvar, Dwarves) 1-4-2 M3
From the start, I had Krag and Hagesh, while my opponent had Dwarves and Ingvar. In the magic zone, I reached level 4 immediately. Then, I took one adjacent tile near the Necropolis and two sand tiles near the Fortress entrance. The third tile was snow. I entered the snow and wandered there for almost two weeks, then found an exit and immediately took some items for +20% experience and ran. Gastello spent longer in the desert and couldn't get out of it.
Before surrendering, my opponent spent 70 gold on 100 Demonesses, which was quite effective.
Keegan on his ducks cleared out the treasure rooms, so there were no problems with money.

Thank you for the game. Good luck in the future.
P.S. I finished the group stage. Thank you all for the games.

Drakula_82 (red, Orcs, Arghat, 31) lost to BOLIVAR (blue, Elves, Ossir, 28) on Maze 3-1-4.

I confirm, as they say, no comment. The only thing is that I didn't equip any decent artifacts on my opponent, nor did I equip any when attacking the Castle. Although, I think I had absolutely EVERYTHING. The unexpected hit-and-run attack threw me off, and during the siege, I got confused with the trappers in the roots, and they just stood there doing nothing for the whole battle. Thank you for the game.

Leolopus (Elves, Gilraen) won against Dwp (Undead, Zoltan) in the Maze map.
They started playing back in mid-March, continued on March 21st, but something went wrong for the opponent, and he decided to concede. I suggested continuing the game later from a save. Today, we spent half an hour unsuccessfully trying to load the old autosave – without success. We decided to start a new game. In principle, I focused on archers in the early game, and with successful upgrades and spells like Haste, Regeneration, Critical Strike, Anti-Magic, and Resurrection, I felt confident that I could handle the Necromancer and develop without problems. But as soon as I was ready to start a serious war, after a 20-minute battle, I received a message from Dwp that he had lost while trying to open a portal to the Treasury. Of course, this isn't exactly a victory, and in essence, it's not a victory at all, but our confrontation had dragged on for too long, and I had already offered the opportunity to replay, so I accepted the opponent's surrender. Thank you for the game.
P.S. A certain role in my decision to accept the opponent's surrender was also played by the fact that the Necromancer's turns took a very, very long time; in essence, I spent 80% of the game time looking at the monitor, waiting for my turn

GL red, Orc Hagga, won against Lutii blue, Dungeon, Irka template sun week 8
Hagga lvl 30 34-27-13-12 logs (wisdom), machines, attack, defense, anti-chaos all maxed
Irka lvl 28 23-9-39-26
Started slowly. Bought Hagga on day 2 empty, week 2 plague, only got out into the adjacent zone on week 3. The zone turned out to be rich in experience, stat boosts, and resources (4 Roaches cleaned for 2 weeks) Week 6 ГО, left 5 Cyclopes there in battles for relics and some minor things. Met on week 8 in the opponent's ГО zone, it was a magic week, offered to attack and the final happened. Lutii did not level Darkness, Chaos is muted, Irka had no chance in melee. Thanks for the game!

Confirmed! I expected the opponent to suppress Darkness and didn't level it, and as it turned out, in vain :(

QUOTE]

I confirm.
Regarding our third and final game:
I attacked the guard, thinking it would be easy, but accidentally lost the cart.
This led to a 20-minute action sequence with running and hiding, using only archers and direct attacks from the hero. I almost killed everyone, but I accidentally removed the "cover" from the archers, and the last 12 Hydras killed me.
(I could have defeated them all without any problems.)

I still enjoyed the game.
Thank you for the game.

Judges, please recount my score – hint: it should be 19. :)
And I suggest that, since everyone has at least 5 games played now, the next round should consist of 6 games. Although the pace has clearly slowed down. :(

A request to the judges: please recalculate my score – hint: it should be 19 :).\nAnd I suggest that since everyone has at least 5 games now, the next round should be 6 games immediately :). Although the pace has clearly slowed down :(.

We will recalculate the points;). The rounds in the group stage are likely just a formality, and the decrease in activity is a natural occurrence, but we have time, so we are not going to rush anyone... for now:rolleyes:. P.S. But I warn you, for someone, exclusion from the tournament may not be unexpected, so don't put off until tomorrow what can (should) be done today :).

dmitrik (red, dwarves, Ibba) defeated KillAndAction (blue, Necropolis, Deirdra) with a smile, 4th week, I think.

The map was quite fast, so I immediately took machines, then I got a log, so I ran quickly. On the 3rd day, I got into the Treasury, ran around there for a week, then a Necromancer came out and attacked me. I had mass acceleration and Word of Power as spells, but that was enough, and I also had more troops.

Thanks for the game.

ekzekutor (blue, Marbas, demons) defeated sonic81 (red, Crag Hack, orcs) week 5
Development wasn't going particularly well at first, but by week 3 I had everything I needed and built up (helped by a necromancer who cleared the other adjacent zone). After running around a bit and picking up vampires and berserkers, I decided not to drag it out and broke into the treasure zone at the start of week five. There, near the portal to the opponent, I encountered Crag Hack. Neither of us had all our troops, but fire, cursed earth, and darkness (even if dimmed) helped.
Thanks for the game
(Also played a game with Raikome a while ago, please record it in the table)

Well, I don't know how Ekzekutor managed to do so well; according to the stats, he was performing exceptionally well and developing rapidly. I took Anti-Darkness early on.
Thanks for the lesson.

:smile13:

I confirm dmitrik's report. It seemed to be going well, but I only got skills up to level 10, and logistics at level 15. The magic guild in my home town turned out to be weak: no summoning or darkness skills (only vampirism). I got into the dungeon on the 4th week: in the library of spells, there was again only vampirism, and I didn't have time to search the dwellings of mages and mistresses of darkness... As a result: an inevitable loss...

Thanks for the game!

sonic81 (red, Castle, Axel) lost to dmitrik (blue, Dungeon, Irana) M3, end of week 5

The start was fat, all my heroes were in the tavern, Irana arrived on the second day, and in the zone there were two dwellings of beasts. On the third, I rushed home for spells, then jumped into the treasure zone, ran around there for about a week, and then headed to the opponent, luckily the cockroach found the enemy's adjacent zone. For the final, I didn't take the minotaurs; they were with Irbet, who was also looking for the enemy. In the end, I had 13 hydras left, but the enemy's hordes had run out)

Thanks for the game.

sonic81 (red, humans, Axel) lost to dmitrik (blue, dungeon, Yiran) M3, end of week 5
Confirmed. Didn't have enough money to buy and upgrade everything, resulting in unupgraded horses, plate armor infantry, and peasants, and for griffins there wasn't enough at all(. The Log allowed only level 15, and the desert as an adjacent zone messed with my mind, even if it was the 3rd one in a row (there were no stables in 2 of the adjacent zones, only in the desert in the far appendix). Artifacts were all there, but no high-tier ones (never even got to the Tree of Knowledge). Even though it's M3, money was quite tight, and I also feared running into Dmitrik without high-tier Light Magic. If I had one more week to farm, I basically knew where the Tree of Knowledge was and was heading there. A glimmer of hope shone in the final battle!... I could have lasted until the Warlock's second arrival if I had just a little more, but I ran out of mana. He was destroying me no joke, even through Anti-Magic. Handcuffs are needed here.
P.S. Some wise person already said here: No Log - No Game !!!
Thanks to the opponent! Playing against him was nothing but positive.

Sonic Anwen (won) - Raykonen Mephisto (lost) Spiral 3 weeks
Not much to write about.
Basically, Misha gifted me the win by dying to neutrals, while being ahead of me in everything in the game. I'm an idiot; upon seeing Anwen I closed my eyes to the bad starting layouts - no elementals, no shooters, painfully inconvenient neutrals. On the 3rd day I found out that in the adjacent zone there were red centaurs standing, turns out 80. The 2nd dwelling was high-tier in the other end of the spawn. No machines, no Log, no spells like Crystal or Regen. I should have taken a RESTART!!! Anyway, thanks for the gift, but it's unlikely to make me play better.)

I confirm Sonic81's report. Everything was going well, but due to a lack of experience playing as the Inferno faction, I miscalculated my strength and lost to the neutral creatures. Thanks for the game! Good luck in the tournament!
