TERM (red, Tower, Aine, Aine) def R55Max (blue, Castle, Caitlin, Dessa), 8mm6a, 141

The game didn't go well from the start. There's nothing to describe. In the end, on turn 141, without having much magic except for Light, I stormed and red-rushed the opponent's Castle. He had even fewer troops, although his hero was slightly stronger...

Thanks for the game!

TERM (red, Tower, Aine, Aine) def R55Max (blue, Castle, Caitlin, Dessa), 8mm6a, 141

The game went wrong from the very start. Nothing to describe. In the end, by turn 141, having virtually no magic besides light, I took the enemy's castle by storm and with redrash, his army was even smaller, though his hero was slightly stronger...

Thanks for the game!

Epic, when the red player went into rough terrain and cut off my main army, in the end I couldn't join up, lost the cavalry, 8ww, also had the Dragon Fly Hive and the Ogre's Club snatched from under my nose, which I was planning to pick up the next day (that could have given a solid stat advantage, and considering the excellent leveling, having mass slow and mass haste plus slightly stronger magic could have been a winning factor), but the red player, after taking the club and running through several stat-boosting buildings, caught up in stats, and in the meat fight they had a solid advantage, resulting in a takedown.
Thanks for the game.

I confirm. It seemed like everything was going well, I got an expert resurrect on week 2, but there was nothing to take, and you can't fight against lightning with 18 speed and 180 mana. Well, that's good, I finally finished, now we'll take a break from Heroes for the summer :)

05.07.2011 Scorpiona(Blue, Swamp, Rosick, Rosick) def Court (Red, Castle, Kightlin, Katelyn) 8mm6a 221

I spent all my restarts on doubles. As a result, I got a tiny respawn with a radius of half a turn. On the respawn there were 2 external dwellings of gnolls and a scout gave me a general rundown.
I quickly went down to the underground, there was a fork. Rosick went towards the shifted guard and reached the "necromancer" computer which had holed up in a castle, but Rosick easily dealt with it with the help of a marksman, then headed to the underground passage. For some reason it seemed to me then that this was the exit to the center, but it turned out to be native treasure zone, a Trog Griffin Conservatory and a couple of Dragon Fly Hives were revealed there. After checking the Griffin Conservatory (3), the road was then blocked by a stack of Arch Magi in front of a prison; both of those were out of reach on day 123-124:smile31: . But Nella still took one of the Dragon Fly Hives, breaking through a dense group of Arch Magi, for only 4 Wyverns.:(
The third week was marked by wandering around not knowing where I was going :smile13: :smile04: ….Movement of the red player was already flickering near the portal to the center, while I had neither army, nor stats, nor magic…My scouts were not allowed through for reconnaissance…Rosick spent the whole week running around the remaining 2 Griffin Conservatories, and Nella returned to the treasure zone and fought her way further, but quickly gathered 8 levels…everything was back where it started:smile25: , to my joy I managed to reveal a Dragon Utopia and several Dragon Fly Hives.
On the fourth week, Rosick at least understood what to do next…while waiting for reinforcements in front of the Dragon Utopia, he ate the Dragon Fly Hives and a Pandora's Box for 5 levels of magic:smile03: !!! The Dragon Utopia (2) gave a Mace +5 to Air, a Necklace +3 all. Nearby there was another Dragon Utopia (1) a Shield +6 and a Hat of 5 levels. Well, now I can finally move!!!
I buy troops and go to the revealed neighboring territories to raise stats and collect Angels.:smile14: Near one of the computers, right under its castle, there was another Dragon Utopia max that gave a Helm +6 all, a Shield +12 and Titan's Plate Mail +12.:smile44: I continue on to collect Pandora's Boxes.
But on turn 217, after passing the turn on 221, the Opponent surrenders…
I looked at the saves, the armies are roughly equal, and the opponent's might even be stronger if they buy everything! There is magic!!! The only difference is in stats: Katelyn 13-12-24-15 (22 level) Rosick 20-30-31-16 (19 level)….

Thank you for the game.

VishMaster, get in touch, there's time to play now; it might be harder to find time later.

Thanks for the game.

I confirm. The mistake was at 147 when I was reaching for the blue's ancestral castle, but... I gave up the fight after failing to reach the ancestral castle by one cell on day 1 of the week.
I don't like this kind of dragging out, especially since Caitlin had neither logistics nor Dimension Door, only fly and exp. fire with a book of fire.
Once again I curse myself for my indecisiveness :mad:

Thanks for the game.

Remaining pairings. :) KobRa_RR vs Medium_HP numOne vs TERM BAJIEHOK vs RomarioGrom R55Max vs Piterius

07.07.2011 numOne (red, Dungeon, Darkthorn, Gundula) def TERM (blue, Rampart, Aeris, Aeris), 6LM10a, 116

I have 3 medusa huts, 4 hives nearby, and plenty of room to maneuver + Gundula in the folders, but my opponent didn't manage to take the mini-conflux and refused auto-resolve.

Thanks for the game!

07.07.2011 numOne (red, dungeon, Darkstorn, Gundula) def TERM (blue, Rampart, Aeris, Aeris), 6LM10a, 116

I have 3 external dwellings of medusas, 4 beehives nearby, and plenty of room to maneuver + Gundula in the folders, but my opponent couldn't overcome the mini-Griffin Conservatory and declined an auto-resolve.

Thanks for the game!

2 external dwellings of pegasi, external dwelling of dendroids. Dessa as a backup hero, Aeris picked up Logistics and Earth Magic on the first level-ups. Though money was tight. In the end, I rushed and got hit by the griffins in the Conservatory. I entered the Conservatory deliberately, so I consider taking auto-resolve in such a situation unsportsmanlike...

And thank you too!

How is the game between ariputra and WishmasteR going? Is it time for someone to get a technical loss?

02.07.2011 Psyche_7(red,Fortress,Verdish,Verdish) def Sevensan(blue,Tower,Aine,Elleshar), Mini-Nostalgia, 117

The second tournament game on SOD. I have nothing against this version, but I'd still like to play more WT. But out of the kindness of my heart, I compromise (either it's impossible to connect via Hamachi, or something else :().

We agreed not to cross out the computers, and I get a double. The opponent didn't take re - as it turned out, he was counting on his two computer dungeons. On the first, I quickly mop up the chain and shield (+4 and +4); a Dragon with three stacks also came in handy - overall everything is going great, though the pace is slow - I only dealt with my own computer, killing the aggressive scouts from the others. On the second, I planned to clear the computer's respawn (two Dwarf Cottages near the castle) and slowly head into the treasure zone (hive, Pandora's box, boots), while taking out the Inferno computer (which interfered the most). But it wasn't meant to be - things went wrong for my opponent.

Thanks for the game!

Ready to play, the gamemaster confirmed yesterday that he is ready.

Looks like people have gotten too relaxed.

Voland def Positive, jebus
Opponent conceded and left
