Posts from I love it 200%. Auto-translated

can you substitute a player on the opponent's team? If, of course, the satyr, organizer, and other participants don't mind?

it's already too late to make changes; the game or tech support will start soon.

(Too bad, I would have gladly played, 200% + the rules of Heroes are the best)

if I don't get in touch with Stude_NT within a week, bRitvo4kA will proceed.
Okay, there's a problem here, but what are the others waiting for? There are opponents.

if I don't contact Stude_NT within a week, bRitvo4kA will automatically advance.

I can't remember the last time I saw such a ridiculous situation. The guy registered on March 23, 2011, signed up for the tournament on the same day (which was his only post), and that day was also his last visit to the forum. So, this guy withdrew from the playoffs without playing a single game (if the table is to be believed), and they've been waiting for him for almost a month and are going to keep waiting. :D :D :D :D :D :D

it will be even more interesting if he announces himself at the end of the given period and wins the tournament :D

+++++++

Romario, what other week are you talking about!? The playoffs last all summer (almost 2 months, lol), and in that time, not a single game has been played (!), and you want to wait even longer? Why? What, is the guy going to show up and write, "Oh, I forgot that this tournament/site/game existed, I can play now"?

I understand you're tired of waiting, no problem, play with Britva.

Please provide updates on the progress of the matches (if they even started). We need to draw some conclusions, as the tournament has stalled.

Satyre (blue, Castle, Caitlin, Kyrre) def bRitvo4kA (red, Barbarian, Gurni, Gurni) spider 136

My opponent took two resets at 111, I didn't restart. My 4th hero is Kyrre, the respawn is huge with lots of gold. The only road is blocked by 20+ green snakes, I spend the first week at the respawn collecting money, grabbed gloves, looted some gold, painted a neutral pikeman dwelling. Didn't find logs in time, built swordsmen in the citadel, 6 heroes, 10k gold. Kyrre has Earth magic, there's a Griffin Conservatory in the depths of the respawn.

I hit the snakes, a mini Dwarf Cottage, grabbed armor. Break through to the metro, there I reveal another Griffin Conservatory, the road is long. I bring horses, paint a neutral Inferno village with pikemen on day 123. I attack the orcs for sandals +1/+1 and resources, using horses against the orcs. There are 40 of them, nasty terrain, one horse survived with 10 HP, the experience armor saved me.

I break through a teleport to the green Inferno, there I see another Griffin Conservatory and a Dragon Fly Hive behind Master Genies. I take the Inferno, near it there's a Dragon Fly Hive behind Hell Hounds. On day 126, a scout hero takes a +3 sword, breaks through the hounds, enters the Dragon Fly Hive, and it's maxed. I thought "well hello," but a stack of 80 spearmen pulled through, killing my swordsmen, horses, and 20 pikemen. The green bot gets killed by the red one, so it must be nearby. At home, horses in the Castle, in the Inferno pit fiends in the citadel with plans to cut through.

On day 131, I level up oil, take the 3rd Griffin Conservatory without losses. Day 132 - I hit the genies, get wrecked by the Dragon Fly Hive on the way to the village, take another treasure zone, fight to replenish mana. Day 133, a scout hero runs through an adjacent respawn to the Inferno onto the rocks, I move Kyrre there, scout heroes take a mini Dragon Fly Hive, another Griffin Conservatory is visible but far. On day 134, I take the Barbarian castle, on day 135 I take the Dungeon village, I see red flags fleeing into the treasure zone. On day 136, the opponent surrenders.
Thanks for the game, 1:0.

Satyre (Red, Tower, Aine, Deessa) def bRitvo4kA (Blue, Barb, Gurni, Gurni) spider 316

Yes, yes, third month, first week :smile47: (for that kind of money, I was ready to run for a year)).
At the beginning of the second month, we battled: I had magic, parameters, armies almost equal. Thanks to Armageddon, I traded nearly down to zero. Then Britva bought the army from Conflux and I took off running, where I grabbed the decisive Pandora's Box with all the air spells. I immediately offered a draw but got refused. The map was, I must note, very sparse. In the end, I cheated out a decent army, at the start of the third month I hit-and-ran perfectly with 4 ChD, then spent a couple more days just finishing off.
Thanks for the game.

P.S. SEND THE CASH!!! :smile44:

It happened. With experience, Wisdom, and Earth Magic, plus a good advantage in stats, after building up to level 5 in two cities, I was counting on Town Portal, Dimension Door, and combat spells – but I got nothing useful, and none of the spells I needed. And after a couple of times when I miscalculated, I didn't expect that Dessa would be so effective. And she, the pest, moves much further in SoD than in WoG. Thanks for the game.

well, here we are, approaching the final game.
Satyr - rebellious.
Good luck, everyone!

1st game, August 30-31, 2011

rebellious (red, Fortress, Bron, Vestan) def Satyr (blue, Castle, Caitlin, Gunnar), 8XM12a, 212, gold

Played in two sessions, hosted by the opponent. Roads are gravel. I should note that the opponent offered to restart if there was a one-way teleport on the respawn. I refused. Since I expected the generator to create road geography and forks in favor of the reds. But it turned out as it did :rolleyes:
We managed without any restarts at all.
111 - Bron arrived with 6 wasps and 12 gnolls, and in the tavern - Vestan with 12 lizards and Coronius, I buy the former. Gnoll external building taken, two lizard external buildings and a utopia are also visible. No buildings, balance -1550.
112 - I buy Rosie with a bow, again no buildings, balance - 1850.
113 - a skilled Coronius was bought, I build the town hall, balance - 1600.
114 - scout Aeris is recruited into the army, I build lizards, the entire town army is bought out, balance - 10.
115 - both lizard external buildings taken, sawmill painted, gnoll shield discovered behind a crowd of lizards, adjacent lava territory is cleared, I build dragonflies, balance - 830.
116 - ore mine captured, gnoll flail spotted behind a crowd of zombies, in town - citadel, balance - 5030.
117 - I set up wyverns, Vestan - level 4, 1-5-2-2, expert armor, basic archery and earth, in the army there are 35 lizards, 20 gnolls, 6 lizards, balance - 4530.
121 - mages guild (arrow, haste, slow, blessing), + Verdish and Charna in the army.
122 - messed up with building, balance 3680.
123 - dragonfly upgrade.
124 - I build basilisks, take the first ulick with Vestan (without book) against 6 wyverns and 29 djinns (with grey stack).
125 - lizard upgrade, utopia guards defeated with naggens (23 great basilisks).
With extensive adjacent lava, there is an entrance to the metro behind the lizards (4 days walk from town), from my respawn there is also a far exit to the metro (3 days walk), and the respawn itself is practically in the very corner in the northeast. Access to transition zones is long, which hinders development, but at least some consolation that the home respawn is in a secluded place.
126 - I build gorgons.
127 - defeat shield and flail, take pandora for 31 royal griffins (given 35 dragonflies), in town - market, not enough money for the castle, balance - 4060. Vestan level 8, 2-13-4-3, advanced archery, earth, logistics. There is a conserve on the lava, but nothing else interesting nearby or far away. So, concentration of forces in the direction of my underground.
131 - beat gloves from a group of nags (along with a resist pendant), became an expert in earth and archery.
132 - city hall.
133 - freed Serena from a level 10 prison with advanced air. The first major crossroads is visible - a fork, metro exit, green teleport.
135 - capitol, I build houses, capture a tea Conflux village above (Malekith kills all my gnolls with arrows), moreover with a built university (what a gift :eek: ), I take the naga bank-three nearby, and head towards the visible order of earth and external fire birds, also spot the edge of the utopia.
136 - took maxi-ulick for the earth-folk, defeated guards of the bird external building (also an Inferno scroll and fugitive camps) - 49 trolls. Finally, the first clash with the opponent, a battle of fools, and Gunnar went first (and where did he even come from :( ...), followed by Strucker with 1+1+1 angel and a dozen zombies, attacked Serena with starting split troops. However, after receiving a bolt for 130, the blues paused: whether to win the battle with the loss of an angel, or to buy their way out unharmed... and they decided to retreat intact. But Serena was finally finished off by Gunnar who turned back home.
137 - bird external building taken, building a chain home, I don't build hydras (saving), Vestan level 14, 9-14-5-4, expert logistics, advanced wisdom and basic artillery, already broken in the home town (preparing to take his utopia-three).
141 - take utopia without shield, stone skin, healing with heavy losses of fodder, but at least there are wings :smile03: , lion shield and black ball, and a bravery charm fits the theme. Now all thoughts are on taking the second utopia.
143 - the second utopia is also a three - earth, air books and a chupi - into Vestan's bag. And for himself - only into the third captured town - a dungeon village - for mana. Things became more spacious.
144 - I take the opponent's first Castle with built horses-monks-griffins in the castle (recaptured by him from the computer), kill Christian (was the first blue pope), I build hydras at home :smile12:
146 - I capture another blue Castle without built horses in the castle (also recaptured by the opp from the computer).
147 - I repaint another important snowy settlement of the opponent, Charna (by the way, expert earth and sorcery, but didn't gather skeletons) spotted a vast underground treasury zone with a utopia and a large number of artifacts. Vestan - level 17, after getting tactics he buys air, 13-16-13-9.
After Vestan took the utopia-three on 212 (with orator's hat), the opponent surrenders, as Gunnar is without control.
Thanks for a good pleasant game!:smile20:

Saves, rename to saves.7z and unpack with a corresponding archiver.

rebellious (red, Fortress, Bron, Vestan) def Satyr (blue, Castle, Kaitlin, Gunnar), 8XM12a, 212, gold

Thank you for a good and pleasant game!:smile20:

Started off great, with plenty of gold, and there are 3 more Castles on the map, which inspires great optimism. Ran to the corner village in the first week, it was blocked, built horses in the fort. On the second week, got through a one-way portal to the green bot, there were 2000, 1-4. Capture a neutral stack of swordsmen and horses there. Then also took a Dungeon, 2 of them, freed Gunnar at level 10 with Wisdom and Offense :smile23:
On the third week, took a level 3 Griffin Conservatory, rushed to a revealed Dragon Utopia, it was max, didn't try. Later revealed another one, which had Tomes of Air and Earth, but one turn before taking it, Vestan flies over the mountains and grabs it :(. This essentially decided the game. I then took 3 Dragon Utopias and scouted all directions that didn't end with one-way portals or lead to the opponent, found no control and surrendered.
Thank you for the game.

2nd game, September 1, 2011

rebellious (blue, Tower, Eine, Nila) def Сатир (red, Stronghold, Gurnisson, Gurnisson), 8XM12a, 121, gold

Made a couple of restarts: first Pykedram showed up, then a lookout appeared in the chest... Nellka and Dessa arrived, the gargoyles were built, but money was tight. Though there were some dwarven dwellings. I took them in the first week — the minis and the 15-stack, plus a crypt. Freed Sorcha, 5th level, from the prison. Had enough resources; built mages in the town.
The opponent had practically a closed respawn and a dump.
Thanks for the game!
