lol) I also take my time, otherwise I'll be a noob like you, who can't break through defenses somewhere because the auto-battle fails, and it's too lazy and time-consuming to do it manually.

What kind of smiley did Gill use?

Vis, I had lag too, but I didn't spend too much time on those battles. The lag isn't the problem here; it's about tactics.

Klov, you're a noob anyway. Long turns don't help you. And the auto-battle doesn't make me lose, and I can play myself.

Vis, I had lag too, but I didn't focus on those battles. The lag isn't the problem; it's about tactics.

Did you even play a single battle manually? You're saying it's about tactics? You really rushed the center hard, didn't you.
I consider myself one of the fastest players, and not without reason. I've played against people who move so fast that I could read the forum during the battle (!!1).
We need to play with a good connection; at least mine is good now.

I played all the battles manually. Although it wasn't always an advantage, and I haven't played in a long time, so I made mistakes. I played with people who take 30 minutes per turn. You take less time, yes. But still, for me, it's too long. I can't just sit and wait. My computer doesn't really allow me to do anything else besides reading the forum. And there's usually nothing to read there.

The center rushed hard, you really did.

I'm not the type of player who takes one unit at a time and runs around with it while a ballista shoots down the enemies. I'd rather wait for an army, kill some noobs, and break through with a standard method. Even if it takes more time, I don't see anything wrong with that in this game. It's better than grinding and wasting a huge amount of real time.

Voting: who's the noob after Arky's second-to-last post, him or me?

If your auto-battle isn't failing, then you're either going for battles that are easy to win, or you're going for more difficult battles and losing armies, which means you won't be able to defeat other opponents. I go for battles that the auto-battle either loses with heavy casualties or barely wins, and I win them manually with much fewer losses, or even no losses at all. Therefore, since you defeated weaker creatures, you received a smaller reward and less experience, which slows down your development. I defeated stronger creatures, which logically guard better resources/mines/other objects on the map, so my development is faster than yours. And you were even planning to rush, but you definitely can't rush with the auto-battle.
I'm explaining such obvious things, it's almost funny)

Added after 3 minutes
If you played all the battles manually, then again, you either played easy battles that aren't worth playing, two shots and you win, or you didn't have as much lag as we did. Or you were just sitting in your castle, and you only captured two mines, and then you write that you played all two of your battles manually

no, you misunderstood me. and I didn't want to rush.
and yes, why would I attack a horde of jumping demons if I know they will either overwhelm me or almost destroy my entire army? why attack? or a horde of archers/fast units.
I captured two mines, yes. the rest aren't needed yet, and the golden one is guarded by doggies. so I was looking for artifacts and the like.

I'm not the type to take one unit at a time and run around with them while a ballista shoots down enemies. I'd rather wait for an army, kill off some weaklings, and break through using a standard method. Even if it takes more time, I don't see anything wrong with that in this game. It's better than grinding and wasting a huge amount of real time.

Lol, what? The ballista will shoot down enemies faster than your units attacking them in small groups in the first week. I'm not arguing, I played with an overpowered hero (definitely in this situation), but to say that it would take more time than sitting in a castle and waiting for an army is stupid. The battles weren't grindy, they were average.

I know how to kill the jumping demons in a way that they don't destroy my entire army, but only a relatively small part of it, so I attack them and eliminate them.

well, in the third game, you also took the longest turns, about 10-15 minutes. Were there also lags or something?)
Okay, let's play again. If you take more than 10-15 minutes per turn, I'll leave the game.

Why do I have to play again? I had plans for the previous game!! :(

Did I really spend 10 minutes in turn three? Proof or you're a liar!

if you spend more than 10-15 minutes, I'll leave.

Never mind that we had a 10-minute limit? And I finished my turn around minute 6.
Let's play with a limit of... 4 minutes.

I won’t play with such a limit.

remember when we played together in a 4-player game? Me, you, Reven, and Zubr. Who took the longest turn, huh?

I'm not talking about that time, but about the actual game. There, time constantly changes and is reset after each battle.

no translation needed, these are just lags.

remember when we played Heroes 4? Me, you, Reven, and Zubr. Who took the longest turn, huh?

I don't remember what happened, but it definitely wasn't me. We spent 60% of the time waiting because someone was agonizing over the state of their alliances, their territory, or whatever.

4 minutes is fine, as long as there are no lags.
