After all the rests, I was given a tiny respawn with a Dragon Utopia, which I cleared at 127, placed bears, and painted my home village with the bear cache. At the start of the 3rd, 9 angels for 100 dogs, 22 ducks; I'm going to take the Dragon Utopia in the adjacent zone, but Petr decides not to continue... The early skirmish with the computer, in which he lost a lot, took its toll.

Thanks for the game!

After all the rests, I was given a tiny respawn with a Dragon Utopia, which I cleared on 127, plugged in bears and painted my home village with the bear cache. At the start of day 3: 9 angels for 100 dogs, 22 ducks; I'm going to take the Dragon Utopia in the adjacent zone, but Petr decides not to continue... The early skirmish with the AI, in which he lost a lot, took its toll.

Thanks for the game!

I fell for the stable and the four-way on a tiny respawn, even though the last rest was 111. On the second day, the picture isn't great. I kill the brown necromancer; in another direction, I run into the green one, also with full power:rolleyes:. Thought I'd smash him to pieces with 16 archers, but Charna uses tactics to accelerate 20 rags on mud and I retreat with two ears...
The blues rode up right then; I thought about doing a re upon meeting, but this peak lady, pacing back and forth a bit, blocked the passage in the metro with the remnants of her army:eek:. Pure cinema. I should have surrendered, but decided to play on. But there was too much chocolate on that side; no amount of tempo was enough to wind up two necromancers.

Thanks for the game.

but Charna, with her tactics, speeds up 20 units on rough terrain and I escape with two artifacts...

This is how you should play as Necropolis: :smile10:

Thank you for the game

Thanks for the game.

You're welcome.

All the rest spots were chosen, and in the end, a rather empty spot was assigned, but there's a hidden stash of cats, which I placed on the first fort. I painted the hidden stash of greens on 117, bought it, and they arrived through the portal.
At the beginning of turn 3, I buy a book, attack the Hive on turn 8, and get a cloak 2/2, a +5 cuirass, and a sphere of earth as rewards. The opponent was emerging from the teleport near the tower I had previously captured - I head there while there aren't too many horned creatures. I take the resource spot with 2 resources and position myself near another one. Marius arrives, destroys the resource spot, and attacks:
Shakti (5 7 10 5 (19)) 3 greens, 2 angels, 8 cats, 8 ducks.
Marius (4 6 1 3) 50 demons, 3 angels, 4 pits, 1 ifrit.
Magic helped - I used slow to kill the meat and then finished off the stack of horned creatures in melee combat, with 2 dragons and all the cats surviving.

Thanks for the game!

It's been a long time since I was as frustrated by a game as I am now :mad:. The generation was seemingly good, lots of money, 2 Griffin Conservatories in the adjacent zone, Marius got a log. On turn 115 I encountered the red player's units at a teleporter exit, they ran away, but the rest path from the encounter was not in my favor, or so I thought at the time, and I also left that area. As it turned out later, the other 2 roads led to corner villages, and I, in effect, found myself cut off from the rest of the map. Moreover, on the road to the obelisks there were strong blockers: 10+ Sultan Efreets and a horde of Eyes. On turn 121 I broke through the Eyes, but the road was long as life, no end in sight. Then the red player runs in and grabs my Griffin Conservatory, I retreat home. I'm 1 lumber short of building the Mage Guild, which, of course, had Haste. :smile51: Hatred for the game overwhelmed me when I saw Slow in the FB. Although, even if I had won it, I wouldn't have been able to continue the game, because there was nowhere to run, and that's depressing.
Thanks for the time.

Placed the birds; on 121 got the Griffin Conservatory 2 and 3 (lost psychos, an angel, and a bird there). Then we ran around, fast Dessa took the blue capital, and Andrey, seeing no prospects, surrendered.
Thanks for the game!

There was a GO on rough terrain; I painted 2 secondary resources – snow and Necropolis on level 113, and placed 1000 units there. At home, I had to place cats because it didn't lay down a single pile of stones. The good stuff included: 4 Nagabanks, a box with 1 level, and a tomb with an artifact for growth. There was also a stash of Minotaurs, but I couldn't take it on the first attempt. The adjacent secondary resource was guarded by Orcs and Griffons. When I reached level 123 and went there, I was met by 4 Angels, 3 Birds, 6 Ducks, and Air and Fire elementals with around 15 units each. I had my native growth, and there was nowhere to run...

Thanks for the game.

Ran out of resources due to various noobs and unbuilt lizardmen. So, I traded Tazar for Bron, and I must say, it was a good move. 5 Bron heroes helped me break through a couple of dungeons early on: one with Shacti level 5, and the other with Pyrrh level 5. Fast roads, quickly built up, maneuvering the army in two different directions with Inferno units.
By the end of the first week, I had a castle 1-6 in the citadel with a thousand units + 2 hidden gnoll stacks. In the Inferno units, I had demons with buffs + a hidden stack of buffs!
In the second week, I got a +1 HP ring, then Shacti with Norris barely took 40 wizards, and then I got a +2 HP staff, and it all started rolling...
By the end of the week, I had 80 demons and about 20 vipers and went to the Utopia 2 treasure - I got a +3 sword, +4/4 armor, +6 all helmet, which was pretty good. While I was in the treasure, the fast Gunnar broke through the Grand Order and took the capital and decided to settle there, but the parameters were higher, and the balance of power shifted in Chack's favor.
Thanks for the game!

It happened. The map generator provided a decent setup, but chronic mistakes decided the outcome. There was potential for a longer game, but it clearly wasn't working out, so I tried to force a fight. Thanks for the game.

Watched that movie. Still don't understand the last move that ruined Gunnar's main strategy. :confused:

It’s a pity that Gomunguls withdrew.
Since he only managed to play 2 games, his results have been annulled.
Now, everyone needs to play 8 games. Because of this, I’ve slightly adjusted the table by colors, so that everyone plays 4 games with red and 4 with blue. Naturally, this only affected the games that haven’t been played yet. If games are postponed, and the colors are important, send me a message on ICQ, and I’ll try to fix it.

I’ve updated the table as of this morning.

Scribbled myself a Conflux, and got the red color too). On the first day, painted 2 villages and an external dwelling of air, somehow through markets recruited birds, Fiur with 10 Attack and Earth magic. On the second day, broke into the Griffin Conservatory for level 3, picked up a Chain Mail +4 and Shield +3, painted the Conflux and another external dwelling of air, heading to the passage to the wasteland — the blue player was flashing around there. At the start of the third day, I'm bringing up troops, already close to 90 air elementals etc., going to visit the opponent, but Romario folds at the Griffin Conservatory and surrenders.

Thanks for the game!
