Again, I only took 1 rest because the respawn point was very small...
Finally, the chain worked in full, I'm happy about that, did I finally learn a little bit?)))
In the 2nd game, the opponent clearly relied on luck; his hand wasn't very good, although he also had 2 secondaries..
Valerka attacked, and the opponent retreated, thanks for the game, luck was on my side today))

Thanks for the game!

Hermit (violet, tower, Solmyr, Cristian) lose rebellious (red, castle, Valeska, Grindan) 8mm6a 145

The situation was bad, the respawn points were poor... I lost in Utopia. Solmyr spent his mana, and there wasn't enough left for an explosion. I had to retreat with the butterfly. Cristian went in, and the genies cast frenzy on the angels, and they were immediately killed. But even with Utopia, there were no chances. Grisha, at level 115, knew the entire 4th level. Thank you for the game.

Hermit(violet, tower, Solmyr, Cristian) lose rebellious(red, castle, Valeska, Grindan) 8mm6a 147

The setup was bad, the respawn points were poor... I lost in Utopia. Solmyr spent his mana and didn't have enough for an explosion. I had to retreat with a butterfly. Cristian moved in, and the djinns cast frenzy on the angels, and they were immediately killed. But even with Utopia, there were no chances. Grisha, at level 115, knew the entire 4th level.     Thank you for the game.

I had a good setup. Lots of provisions - level 1 and 2 creatures, plenty of money. Pandora with the 4th level wasn't easy - there wasn't much mana, and the scorpion in the guard - all seven stacks, 19 creatures. And Gosha was there to help, collecting bones. And then I came to the first computer - the blue castle :smile44:
Thank you for the game.

10.12.2010 AYMAN (blue, swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def SEM_56 (red, Castle, Valeska, Valeska) 2SM4d(3), 134

on the first map, 1-6 in the castle, external dwelling of harpies and familiars. One secondary hero is a mage, and he also blocked the passage to the snow, so he hung around at home. There is a home Griffin Conservatory on the ring and a Dragon Utopia.

on day 121, I unsuccessfully took a medusa dwelling with a scout hero, 8 units with weak power - 2 behemoths and gnolls, then Roman's noob scout also made Tazar skip another turn before the hive for the artifact Boots of Speed behind a horde of golems. Tight on money, I take the mini-hive and the boots, and break through to the snow with Tazar. Took a secondary banshee hero, Tazar got knocked back home, and the scouts took a crypt, a medusa dwelling, and an imp dwelling.

on day 131, Tazar with oil takes a Griffin Conservatory of 3 units, and goes into the metro, a scout hero takes Inferno there, and a Dragon Utopia is also revealed. Then Tazar goes into the treasure zone, but it's not very promising there, he broke through uniques for an artifact against Curse and took a shield + 6, then planned to take a gold mine, and go out to the snow to take a Griffin Conservatory there. Well, and then probably Dragon Utopias. But Roman couldn't handle the strong behemoths and decided not to continue, the auto didn't see fit to take them.

Thanks for the game !!!!!!!

10.12.2010 AYMAN (blue, swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def SEM_56 (red, castle, Valeska, Valeska) 2SM4d(3), 134

Yeah, getting the auto-upgrade on week 3 is hilarious...
Lost troops because of the outpost, didn't have enough wood, didn't manage to get and place the Phoenix on level 127...
Saw 3 Utopias, but I didn't know how to take them, and then a 91 Gorgon joined the battle when I was already losing, thanks for the game...

10.12.2010 Lider1 (red, tower, Josefine, Kreg) def Vasutka (blue, rampart, Uland, Rizza) 6LM10 132

We played fullrandom, and this is what we got. I still can't play Tower for shit, even though I tried, with even 3 external dwellings of heroes, I got flanked.

On day 123, 7 Griffin Conservatories were revealed, but I had nothing to take them with, so I lost.

I scraped together what I could, and then lost a second time, completely miserably.

What saved me was that after killing the two AIs (Barbarian), I built bears for them in their citadel.

Suitable for Kreg.

With those, I took the tier 3 Griffin Conservatory at the start of the week, but my opponent wasn't doing any better, with the same losses all game. I didn't want to continue.

Thank you.

Again We played fullrandom

10.12.2010 Lider1 (red, necro, Septienna, Tant) def Sevensan (blue, Fortress, Andra, Gundula) Ring 127

This was an intense game, holy crap. From the start, 2 external dwellings of skeletons, a free hero from the prison, a ballista... Decided to go for it.
Then I regretted it, thinking we'd meet very quickly, and I'd get killed somewhere around the first week. I started looking for the rest of his spawn at the meeting point, and got twice as scared when I didn't find him. >> Had to think.

At the spawns, there was no one to grind on either. I took a swamp secondary, near it were stables, and I spotted a doublе mana! On the first week, vampires in the fort and GM2. In the swamp, wyverns with dragonflies. Already better + I got intelligence =-) And at the end, I also snagged a dungeon secondary.

On the second week, buying the first units and converting them into skeletons, I have 250 bones, I reclaim +4 knowledge, double my mana (224), a bolt for 210, and now I'm not so opposed to meeting the opponent!!! (1.2.3)

So I'm looking for him, in all directions, and all I can think is, I just hope he hasn't mowed down a ton of wyverns and angels, but on day 125, I reveal the opponent's main hero with a scout, standing at an intersection and getting ready to break a path to me. I wait, rubbing my hands together, just hoping he doesn't run away. But I fall short by just 2 cells of reaching him ((

On day 127, he attacks me himself, we have the battle, and the main hero.

Thanks for the game!!!


10.12.2010 Lider1(red, conflux, Ignissa, Pasis) def TERI (blue, conflux, Moner, Moner) 8xm12 132 fullrandom

On the first week, we were positioned well in the citadel. On the second week, I took an external dwelling of KDs and got completely wiped on day 126 over a box (upgraded ogres 43) — I went in without Slow like a fool. In short, I didn't even want to live anymore. It was an idiotic move.

Then on the first day of it, she took it, (10К) I had a leveled-up Septienna and a pendant from the wave of death, lol. When her main hero came to visit me, I thoroughly thinned her out with scouts and magic. (Having given +4 to attack before that :D)

Somehow she attacked me, I don't know why in the city, and the main hero. The chain from the army didn't reach, I guess? In short, it's a mystery to me...

Thanks for the game!

10.12.2010 Lider1(red, conflux, Ignissa, Pasis) def TERI (blue, conflux, Moner, Moner) 8xm12 132 fullrandom

On the first day we settled well in the Citadel. On the second day I took the external dwelling of PD and got wiped to zero on 126 for a box (upgraded ogres 43) and I, being without slow, jumped in like a fool. In short, I lost the will to live. It was an idiotic move.

Then on day one we took her, (10K) I had a leveled-up Septienna and the pendant of the wave of death, lol. When her GG came to visit me, she thoroughly thinned out my army with magic. (After having given away +4 to power earlier.)

She attacked me in the city for some reason I don't know, and the GG. The chain didn't arrive from the army or something. In short, it's a mystery to me...

Thanks for the game!

It happened! The stomp with low-tier units demoralized me! :( I messed up the chain, the growth didn't arrive, I accidentally attacked the Castle, had 25 gold coins, in short, I helped kill myself on the moat :) Because the opponent doesn't read ICQ;)
Thanks for the game)))

10.12.2010 Lider1 (red, Tower, Josefine, Kreg) def Vasutka (blue, Rampart, Uland, Rizza) 6LM10 132

We played fullrandom, and this is what we got. I still can't play Tower at all, even though I tried, even with 3 starting heroes, I messed up the sides.

On 123, 7 Griffin Conservatories were revealed, but I had nothing to capture them with, so I threw.

I scraped together what I could, and then threw a second time, just terribly.

What saved me was that after killing two computers (Barbarian), I built their Bears in the Citadel.

Suits Kreg.

With them, I captured the third Griffin Conservatory at the start of the week, but my opponent wasn't any better, the same throws the whole game. He didn't want to continue.

I thank you.
Thanks for the game

10.12.2010 Neverminder (Red, random, Castle, Sorsha, Tan) def Hero of Might and Magic 3 (Blue, random, Dungeon, Alamar, Gunnar) jebus cross 136

We played random on random. I was dealt Castle with marksmen built from the start. True, the second hero was Christian, so only 14 shooters at the beginning. Shakti appeared in the tavern, who immediately killed 46 pikemen for a prison, and there was no mere nobody inside, but Tan at level 5 with expert Logistics. Nearby a Griffin Conservatory with 2-4 angels. Tan went for the stat boosters and experience crystals, the rest gathered money and resources, because whether you like it or not, you need to build angels. A free Spirit of Oppression was found on the road, lucky. Meanwhile, Tan sequentially got Armor, Archery, and Earth, and the question of the main hero resolved itself. Vala arrived, and an external dwelling of marksmen was found. Meanwhile, Corbac discovered two more Griffin Conservatories (a two-stack and a strong one), and also saw a GO: 1-4 rust dragons or 50-99 necro horses. At the respawn during scouting, 4 Dragon Utopias and a coveted external dwelling of angels appeared. Brains were boiling by the end of the first week, because I absolutely had to have 26k by day seven to build angels, buy one, kill the guard of the external dwelling (20-49 ogres) with its help, the three angels inside the external dwelling, and buy a second angel. By hook or by crook, I managed to get the marksmen upgraded, built the angels, bought them, and the army reached Tan, who was already waiting near the external dwelling at the start of day seven. The situation was further complicated by the fact that there was no Slow in the Castle, and no secondary heroes had been taken by that day, so I had to spend an extra 2500 on Geon. However, everything worked out as planned. Tan killed 45 ogres, the angels, then with two angels killed 18 upgraded Liches for a Pandora's Box, which gave 5k experience. Tan finished the week with angels at level 11.
In the second week, events unfolded rapidly. First the Griffin Conservatories fell (2, 3, 2), then the dwarves for the library, on 123 the first Dragon Utopia (minimal, but gave a Tome of Fire), on 124 - the second Dragon Utopia (almost minimal, gave the Tunic of the Undead King, Crown of the Dragon, and Shackles of War). By the end of the day, Tan decided to split on a secondary Dungeon hero that had been taken and hit the GO (it was very close from there). I split on 1 Gargoyle against Mummies - my goodness, I forgot to take off the Shackles! Fortunately, I had a Ballista and a Marksman for 300 damage. Vala was buzzing around on a fly, I took her fly and the next day I split against Fanatics nearby. I ran out of the Dungeon, took 12 Archangels (not a single angel died in the Dragon Utopias, and subsequently no Archangel died either) and five Troglodytes, destroyed 4 rust dragons (they broke the Ballista, the bastards), and then just cleaned up for the experience and necro horses. But here a bitter disappointment awaited me: I couldn't get to the center because of a block in the form of 50-99 upgraded Efreeti. And I still had basic Earth - it just wouldn't advance. I went to the Dungeon, where I built a portal (marksmen), a Mage Guild, and on 131 a Whirlpool.
On 131, with 7+7 Archangels and the Dungeon gravy train, I went for the Efreeti, which turned out to be 79 units. First, thanks to their ability, they took down one Archangel from each stack, but then I flew the Archangels all the way to the right, summoned Fire Elementals (38 per round), which ignored the shield and broke those Efreeti. And the Archangels joyfully resurrected each other by the end of the battle. But I didn't fight the Efreeti for nothing: they guarded the Titan's Plate and a KZ! But Earth was still basic. I immediately had to kill a horde of my own horses for a library, a Pandora's Box, and a KV. One Archangel perished in this battle, R.I.P. Earth only advanced to level 19, I took the Tome, visited the library - and portal of sumoning home. From there, I ate another two Dragon Utopias, but they didn't give any more stats, though I did collect all 4 Tomes. The FB strategy, naturally, was already born by this point: Anti-Magic on the Archangels + Armageddon. Armageddon hit for 1430, so theoretically few could survive that. And then suddenly, by the middle of the third week, Gunnar shows up with insane 43-33-22-22. I was scared, but what I truly feared was only the presence of the Orb of the Firmament or the Cloak of the Undead King. Oh, and expert Water magic too. I bought everyone (mountains of cash after the Dragon Utopias), went to the center, on 135 killed Lotso's cows for the Sphere of Permanence (one threat averted at least), captured the Tower, and naturally, perfectly understanding that Gunnar was lurking somewhere in the treasure zone, I immediately built not a Mage Guild, not a Tavern, not some Wall of Knowledge, but an Observatory. Half the treasure zone was revealed at once, including Gunnar and one of his henchmen. I pass the turn, see Gunnar take a Hive, a Pandora's Box, hit bears for a Dragon Utopia, climb into the Dragon Utopia, then disappear somewhere, reappear, and stop. The scout shuffle begins, control is passed to me. I look: Gunnar was left with a few Devils and a few Scorpicores. I immediately fly full speed to him, check if the Shackles are in place - they are. I attack. An unpleasant surprise awaits Gunnar. Then a surprise awaits me: Gunnar has the Orb. But two Scorpicores and three Devils, even with insane stats and the Scorpicore's ability activating at the wrong time, had no chance of defeating 16 Archangels with a symbolic retinue. Thanks for the game!

10.12.2010 Neverminder (Red, random, Castle, Sorcha, Tan) def Heroes of Might and Magic 3 (Blue, random, Dungeon, Alamar, Gunnar) jebus cross 136

Confirmed, that's quite the write-up.. :) I actually played terribly, despite reaching 124 (the fastest I've ever managed so far), despite being stronger by 135 than ever before.. =) I was losing a ton of stuff from the very start of the game in places where it shouldn't happen. For example, when defending with over 10 Expert Tactics, 15 Manticores, and 20 Wyverns, how could you lose anything against 30 Gogs??)) I wasted 5 Angels on various junk, 2 of them right after entering the treasure zone on over 20 core stacks. I just rode in overconfidently with "just them" against them.. ) And the pinnacle, of course, was the split in the middle of the fork with unexplored territory in both directions.. Thanks for the game! A lesson for the future..
I need to train myself to use air scouting.. ) It was perfectly clear that the opponent was standing nearby.

11.12.10 bRitvo4kA (blue, Necropolis, Galtran, Galtran) def Albert@s (red, Fortress, Valeska, Brokhild), 2smd4(3), 143
I confirm... the eighth bottle of beer made me fall in love with my tiny base with 2 angel dwellings and 3 consorts, plus 2 dwarves, a nagash, and some medusas... I wandered around, enjoyed it, but I have no money... I risked 117 on a dwarf with 100 attack and lost, I should have surrendered, but I decided to wait until 5 am... thanks for the game...

Added 6 minutes later
P.S. I lost because I didn't know that the opponent had turned on morale on WT, the dwarves and morale were going crazy (probably for all the games I played without morale)... therefore, I suggest making neutral morale mandatory on WT, with it the game becomes completely different, extreme, so to speak, and more fair... and beating stupid, immoral neutrals, anyone can do that, it's a complete degradation, that's how it is...

11.12.10 Blackpoint (blue, stronghold, Krag-Hag) def Sevensan (red, Inferno, Rashka) 2sm4d(3) 137

Almost a TE start, Krag with three stacks (goblins, wolves, orcs), Tyrax in the tavern with 3 stacks and a level 2 dwelling built. The road to the snow is guarded by +20 Monks, the other path is blocked by a prison with a crowd of air elementals. I didn't dare go either way... I ran off-road (didn't respawn, 31 wolves from the start don't grow on trees). I reached a road leading to the grass. It was guarded by Dwarves and Harpy Hags. The Dwarves posed no threat, but the Harpies chewed up my wolves - the beasts. I take a Castle there. In the respawn corner I found an Ogre external dwelling but didn't take it on the first day. On the first day 1-5 in the citadel. In the secondary hero I built a market with a tavern. On the second week I farmed banks for gold and gathered resources, cleared a bee hive for 8 Wives, found 2 more Cons on my native respawn, but I decided not to dive in there and save my troops. Angels appeared in the secondary hero and I took a Sword +6. I broke through to the Necro respawn and took a Castle, there's also a Cons and a relic there. On the third week I take the Hive, Wives are already +20, and Krag easily takes a level 3 Cons, the Horses take a Cloak +2 speed from a crowd of Trolls. Also took a Shield +6. The Horses at home take 2 Cons, and on 137 with 10 Angels and 20 Wives I'm about to take an Utopia, when news of the surrender came.
Thanks for the game.

11.12.10 Might and Magic Hero (red, rnd, dung, damacon, clavius) def Mar (blue, ramp, kyrre, kyrre) 2sm4d (3) 144

Another terrible game on my part... :) Everything was generally okay (except for the starting position) until I tried to take a +3/+3 Amulet of Magic Resistance with Solmyr and 5 Manticores (I don't even know why I needed it...) for 20+ gold, and there turned out to be 49 Pegasi. I killed about 20 of them and ran away with 50 HP. The opponent is building skeletons very slowly, so I went along the road. I only reached the second week in the middle of the third day. At the end of the third day, Solmyr found an Amulet of Magic Resistance deep in the resource area, took it, retreated to the second week, and gave it away. Things started to move a little faster. On day 137, I spent my last money on Draconians. On day 141, another idiotic situation: I couldn't buy a single unit, even though the opponent is near the gold mine and threatens to come soon. On day 142, he attacks with 10+ Titans, captures my Castle with all the reinforcements. Meanwhile, I'm just breaking through to the Treasury, and there's a block of Scorpions, and I have neither Slow nor the first turn. Half of my army was destroyed. And they were guarding a lousy bag of gold and a Hive. There's nothing good in the Treasury: 100+ Demons for a +3/+3 Shield, Necromancer Boots that I don't need anymore. I headed for the exit, just in case I could go in another direction where there are still monsters. But the opponent attacks: 100+ Gnomes, 100+ Grand Gnomes, 4 Enforcers, 3 of my Draconians. I have some kind of mixed army and 530 Skeletons. The stats are around 10, roughly the same. I approach, he uses Slow, I have Resist, and 2 units remain "clean." I manage to move before the Grand Gnome, although what really decided the battle was that his Gnome was blocking the path for the Enforcer, so the Grand Gnome couldn't attack. Mass Haste, and the Skeletons turned everyone into mush. Thanks for the game!
