11/01/10 Baatars (red, Castle, Valeska, Kairie) def Cergo (blue, Tower, Solmyr, Solmyr) 2sm4d(3), 217.

Thanks for the game! It was a very exciting match where things could have turned out completely differently in the last few days. To put it mildly, the day before the attack (by Solmyr), the following were raised: Amulet of Negation, a Scroll of Town Portal (despite the lack of wisdom!), and immediately after that, a Well, all near the captured and defended Castle.

Vigo (blue, Rampart, Kirr, Kirr) def Baatars (red, Castle, Waleska, Edric) 2sm4d(3) 127

A buggy map was generated; I didn't reach the tree on either my main or secondary base. The only external market helped, and I somehow managed to build houses up to level 6 in the castle on the first turn.
On the second turn, I took an adjacent secondary Castle and ran towards the enemy. Edric came out to meet me, Kirr forced him to retreat, and on the next turn, she captured the enemy's castle.
Thanks for the game.

03.11.10 Heroes of Might and Magic 3 (blue, random, tower, Fafnir, Nila) def R55Max (red, necropolis, Galthran, Galthran) 2sm4d(3) 142

We were finishing a very old game. Only the battle remained. At the end of turn 2, I had 5 nests of gremlins. No cons, only one hive near the castle, but I didn't manage to take it. At the end of turn 3, I moved towards the opponent, trying not to lose my advantage in gremlins. On turn 141, I took an empty capital. 346 clubs, 7 nags, 9 masters, 24 gargoyles, 19 mages. Galthran attacks with 5 angels, 466 skeletons, 6 deaths, 10 vivs, 9 vampires, and liches. The opponent has enough mana for only 1 haste, and I have 90 with experience from killing undead. The stats are roughly equal, but I win in the castle anyway. If we had met in an open field, it would have been a different story. But anyway, thanks for the game.

Roads are slow, but the spawn was decent, scouted 3 Griffin Conservatories on 113. Dwarven secondary. On the 2nd, I took a mini Griffin Conservatory, went into the treasure zone — grabbed ducks and another tier-2 Griffin Conservatory there, a Dragon Utopia around week 3 and then home. Took 2 tier-3 Griffin Conservatories and minis on the 4th and went to the opponent's castle. Didn't check the terrain and guessed the wrong direction to the castle. At the start of week 6, I attacked in the castle. Stats were slightly higher, 15 angels, 26 ducks and the rest, but against 64 upgraded wyverns
and the rest of the army. Thought it was hopeless, but the opponent came out with wyverns and attacked the angels. I held position on wait plus cast Mass Slow and Mass Haste, and the wyverns died not far from the marksmen. Then shield, stone skin, and cure. Thanks for the game

We re-matched and started. Opponent surrenders on turn 114, unable to defeat the air units.

03.11.10 R55Max (red, Stronghold, Tyraxor, Tazar) def Baatars (blue, Conflux, Random, Luna) 2c4d(3), 141
Something like a rematch. But on turn 141, I directly attacked from the stables with 98 scorpion units and reached the opponent's capital in the same turn. There were almost no units in it. The opponent surrendered because almost the entire population was not rescued from the castle.
Thanks for both games.
