vip_rus (red, Inferno, Alastor) lost to moz (blue, Inferno, Grok) 2-1, -2 Sun. Quick game, following Dmitrik's advice, I leveled up a Chaos Knight: machines, logs, education (eagle for spells), Chaos. In the beginning of the 5th turn, I reached the enemy castle; the enemy was unprepared and had few troops. Also, my imps drained all their mana. But even if the enemy had a full army, I would have killed him in the castle – I would have destroyed his machines with Chaos and easily killed the demoness. And then, the ball with a cloak and meteor would have easily finished the job. I gained 18 skill points through upgrades. There was a very big difference in stats.

Quick game, following Dmitrik's advice, I leveled up a Chaos hero: machines, logistics, education (eagle for spells), and Chaos. In the beginning of the 5th day, I reached the enemy castle; the enemy was unprepared and had few troops. My imps also drained all the mana. But even if the enemy had a full army, I would have killed him in the castle – I would have destroyed his machines with Chaos and easily killed the demoness. And then, with a ball of warding and meteor shower, I would have easily finished the job. I gained 18 spell power through upgrades. There was a very big difference in stats.

Yeah, I confirm, he wasn't ready for Rush and Chaos.

ekzekutor (blue, demon, Jez) defeated dwp (red, humans, Rutger) Letos.
Decided to try playing as Haven, especially since the spells are free. Everything was going well, but I couldn't find any resurrection spells, only retribution. So, I had to avoid upgrading the Temple. After searching for a while, I decided to attack in the late game, and Rutger caught me off guard and took my Castle. Luckily, he left the Castle after that and didn't buy many units there, so I had to sacrifice some troops to retake it and teleport away. Rutger decided to run from Jez, but boots, stables, and an oasis helped me catch up). He didn't have enough money to buy me off. Thanks for the game.

Decided to try playing as Haven, especially since the spells are given away for free. Everything was going well, but I couldn't find any resurrection spells, only retribution. So, I had to avoid upgrading the Temple to its maximum level. After searching for a while, I rushed to attack in the fifth week, and Rutger caught me off guard, taking my castle. Luckily, he left the castle after that and didn't buy many units there, so I had to throw my troops at it to recapture it and then teleport away. Rutger decided to run away from Jez, but boots, a stable, and an oasis helped me catch up). He didn't have enough money to buy his way out. Thanks for the game.

I confirm. The starting zone was too long, and I fell behind right away, and I was always late behind Jez. In the end, I was in debt and couldn't afford to buy my way out for the final week.

ekzekutor (dwarves, Ingvar) defeated detmers (dwarves).
The development turned out to be very slow; there were not enough resources in the zones, and I couldn't gather enough for towns by the second week. I ran back and forth, cleaned everything, but still didn't have enough money or resources. I did get lucky with artifacts, finding resurrection and vengeance from the mages. We met in my treasure, where I didn't even have time to eat, and I was half-naked. I thought I wouldn't make it, but a slight advantage in creatures and the opponent not having enough money to surrender resulted in me killing his hero. Thanks for the game.
I need to leave for two weeks; I hope to play as soon as I return.

I confirm – it didn't quite work out well, there was one crash (the spells changed) – and I wasn't lucky either – I bought a "Buy" artifact, but didn't quite get to the shop – but still, he bought a "Buy" artifact, and a bigger one than mine.

drunk(krag barbarian) defeated lok1978(elfina elf) maze week 7
Krag got screams and for 3 weeks they were pushing some garbage. Then he lost 60 daughters in the treasure zone for a necromancer's cloak - the habits stuck and 200 hell horses killed almost everyone except the cloak; there were poor Dragon Utopia and Temple in the treasure zone. Just as I broke into another treasure zone, Elfina caught up and killed 8 bugs out of 9, there was no money for ransom. I only hoped for a thousand thugs at home. Kicked Lok out of ГО, left with thugs, half the orcs and a few buddies. The next day I took the Castle.
Thanks for the game.
PS it was assassins week and I bought one, though I put it on the 3rd, geese on the 4th. Kept forgetting, used to them all standing on the 2nd)

ip0203 (red, mages, Narhez) won against Lok1978 (blue, Inferno, Grol) in Spider.

My opponent had some trouble; he went for light and couldn't find the artifact, while I followed my plan – also going for light, but finding everything I needed.

Due to a lack of time for gaming in the coming month, I request to be removed from the tournament, and if the esteemed judges agree, to allow my opponent, Lok1978, to advance further in the tournament.

drunk2 (Marbas, Deleb Inferno) lost to Detmers (Narhiz Mage).
Marbas was slightly behind in stats, and Deleb had a lead in knowledge. When he tried to cast a Global Offense spell, the opponent crashed again. He surrendered.

drunk2 (Barbarian, Sorceress) lost to Detmers (Necromancer, Wizard)
Barbarian was slightly behind in stats, Sorceress was ahead in development. When I managed to break through with a powerful attack, the opponent crashed again. He surrendered.

I don't understand why drunk2 lost patience – in 5-6 hours of play, there were 3 crashes, all due to my hardware. I would have said, "Let's just play a quick game instead." I suggest we finish the game in a week. I don't need victories like that.

It was my fault (although I don't really feel responsible), we didn't finish playing with dwp :( I'm very sorry, a lot of things came up, summer is very short here, and the construction is on hold... Apparently, summer isn't the best time for tournaments, there were a lot of dropouts at the end... Respect to the organizers for the tournament, and especially for their determination and patience; I think the tournament was a success despite everything!:smile20: :smile12:

dmitrik (red, Dungeon, Irbet) defeated will (blue, Dwarves, Brand) on Sunday, end of week 6.

Out of all the heroes at the start, I chose Irbet, thinking the game would be fast, but Chaos is only at level 15, and Education is at level 20, so the first 2 weeks were tense. Also, a Dwarf from his adjacent territory moved into mine on day 11, and I had just gotten Chaos, no spells, nothing to push him back with, so I bought him off and moved to the second adjacent territory, then to the center.

Then I went to the Treasure, waiting for Genius, but didn't get it, so I took everyone except the Fighters and went to fight the Dwarf. At the beginning of week 6, I showed up, checked with a Roach - no Amulet of Resistance, attacked with the main hero - Amulet of Resistance is there, but not equipped, otherwise it would have been game over for me without a chance. I bought him off with 7 Hydras and several Minotaurs; will had two hundred Shields, 21 Bears, and 3 Fighters left.

I came back again on the same week with 5 Black Dragons, 2 Phoenixes, and various other units.

Thanks for the game.

I confirm, in the final battle, I went all out, although I didn't equip the bracers yet. While there was a lot of health, morale, luck, and runes played a role in the battle... the dwarves were doing great, but then Armageddon leveled everything out, and the Warlock ran away. And in the second final battle, the Haven faction wasn't dominant anymore. (Thanks for the game and for the load after losing 150 bears (while defending the bracers)))

dmitrik (red, humans, Dugal, Iris) defeated ekzekutor (blue, orcs, Argat) in week 3, week 6

Dugal and Iris arrived immediately. Iris usually doesn't perform well at the start, but not in this game :) In the outpost, they found griffins, and moreover, a surprised Dugal flew into the mini-dungeon in the middle of the second week and managed to take another outpost with griffins there by the end of the week. In a week and a half, Dugal, with Outposts, trophies, and mass slow, managed to clear almost the entire mini-dungeon, but then a reactive Argat arrived, and he had to pay him off.

Meanwhile, Iris was leveling up as much as she could, lost 3 archers, but was growing well, got education, darkness, attack, and defense. By the time the orc appeared, she had managed to level up to 21, it would have been more, but she couldn't find the entrance to the dungeon :smile50:

The first battle was quite short, Iris with a marching army of 4 archers and 50 red monks didn't stand against the full orc army for long and paid him off. Then the final battle, here it is absolutely unclear what can be done with a hundred griffins under Iris.

Thank you for the game.
