I don't know what you can get out of such a playstyle, whether in SOD or in WoT; a good game with Rampart is rather an exception.

After all the restarts, the map was distributed strangely. On one hand, there were 4 Conservatories with a total of 11 Angels, a couple of Hives, and some resource locations. But to win, I needed to move to the center on day 122, and considering the lack of Pandor with troops/experience, powerful resource locations with weak guards, and accessible Hives, it was problematic.
Right in front of the castle, there was a roadblock of 10+ Thunderbirds on the road, so I had to go around. The roads were narrow, and there were only 4 heroes. Because of Vistan, there were no Gnolls, and I had almost nothing to fight with. I took both villages - Barbarian. I only started seriously fighting after building Hydras on day 116 (I accidentally upgraded Basilisks on day 114). I killed about 20 upgraded Djinns for a +5 club, took a Gorgon resource location, a Hive on day 6, Tazar broke through about 20 Thunderbirds and took Wyvern and Basilisk resource locations. As a result, I lost more troops than I gained...
On day 121, I left half the army in the maximum Conservatory (there was nothing to buy with, I sold most of the resources on day 117 to buy troops from the resource locations), then I took more on days 2, 3, and 2, Hive 4 and 8. When I saw on day 124 that Kairi had a portal, I realized I had lost, because on the respawn point, there were no parameters, magic, or utopias. As a result, Kaitlin, or even Vistan, would have killed Kairi without any losses.
Thank you for the game.

After all the restarts, the loot distribution was a bit strange.

This is what they call a "cooler" situation.

It’s a pity that Peter or Pasha didn’t upload their save files. It seems like it was an interesting scenario.

I want to congratulate Pasha on his well-deserved victory in this tournament; well done, he played very well! Keep it up!

It's still too early.

Thank you, Kostya, but it's not a victory yet. :)
To achieve a definitive victory, I need to win against Zadira.

Tomorrow I’ll be available from 6-7 PM onwards, feel free to contact me. 643243030

Even Petunya doesn't want to add me to the alliance. On Sunday, Vovan-Pahan, in case of a loss, I ask the organizer to automatically give me 4th place...

Regarding playing on Sunday, I can't guarantee it, as I need to play the "Summer on Volde" tournament (2 games) with Samurai (12:00-13:00 Moscow time).
However, on Friday (from 19:00 Moscow time) or on Saturday, we can definitely arrange a game.

13.10.2010, Dubrovin Pavel (Blue, Rampart, Kyrre, Gunnar) def Zadira (Red, Castle, Valeska, Turis) 2sm4d(3) 125

On the first week - there are 2 external dwellings (teleport 4 cells from Main before 100 Lizards) and Inferno for 20-49 Fire Elementals, or up to 20 Crossbowmen. Gr. scouted the Elf external dwelling, so I decided not to take 113. Took the Inferno external dwelling and the Castle external dwelling. Unified in Castle, Elf and Dwarf external dwellings. Scouted Inferno Treasury, there is a Dragon Utopia.

On the second week - with Gunnar I decide to make contact via the Underworld through the Wasteland with 49 Elves, 15 Gr. Pegasi, 90+ Centaurs, 6 Gr. Unified, and the rest of the Retinue; broke through, standing at Boots of Speed before 20 Gr. Mages. Meanwhile, Turis is breaking into my Inferno external dwelling with 1-4 and 1-4 Angels. Plans change, took the Boots for 18 Gr. Mages, retreated to the Inferno external dwelling, waiting. Turis goes to the Griffin Conservatory; after taking it, he is defeated by Main, leaving his entire Army at Loshok (4 Angels, 3 Champs, 6 Swordsmen, 30 Marksmen, 3 Monks), who although tried to retreat, could not escape Gunnar in Boots after the Stable.

Thanks for the game!

So it happened (started off well, got my native secondary on 116, on 117 I took out 18 cats with a gr stack and grabbed a pandora's box for 10k experience, Turis was already level 12 with logistics, expert armor, expert tactics, expert pathfinding, and morale, horses in the citadel, on 121 I broke into the main castle, took the golem factory for 20, took the Griffin Conservatory for 2, decided to scout a bit on the Rampart's territory, turned out there was a passage to a treasure zone and a Griffin Conservatory, took another Griffin Conservatory for 2, decided to head home since fighting without a spellbook was tough and breaking a third Griffin Conservatory with a secondary wasn't doable, I was already past caring, dreaming of a 5, then immediately at the end of the first month I planned to break out again, head home, and grab 2 Dragon Utopias near home at the end of the second month, and on 131 go fight ГО, lots of dragons and skeletons, and smoke out Pavel even if he was in the castle, but alas Pasha caught a break with an army and ruined all my plans((( and well, how could I hide from Gunnar with expert logistics and boots, no way) and it turns out the observatory was spotting me the whole time, eh... what a thing that scouting is)

Congratulations to Pavel on the tournament victory, well done! I think we'll meet again, and I also extend my gratitude to Konstantin for the tournament, from the heart, guys!

Congratulations to Pavel! Respect! Question for the other finalists: will you be finishing the game?

Congratulations to Pavel! Respect!

Thank you, Kostya, and thank you for the excellent Tournament!
I hope that you won't stop, and holding this Tournament will become a good tradition for Wold!

A question for the other finalists: will you continue playing?

There isn't much point, really. If Petka and Vovanych want to have a match, maybe against me, I wouldn't mind, I could play without much effort. But the strongest player in the tournament has already been determined, so maybe we don't need to continue...
