Y11 (Demon, Deleb) defeated dmitrik (Elves, Anven + Vitya) 2-1-3

Well, Dima basically handed me the victory.

The start was good, but since we were playing with random maps, it turned out to be a Spider map.

I started clearing out the zones: Necropolis, Snow, and Tundra – I had to find a log.

The Necropolis zone didn't have a road – I didn't use the main path.
Snow – I followed the road directly to the treasure.
I went to a resource zone, but it turned out to be useless; there wasn't a single artifact. The center was much better.

I cleared out the resource zone and ran to the treasure, and at the same time, I saw Dima in the center.
The treasure was a Necropolis without roads. 6 relics and one major artifact, a mummy ambush, and 2 upgrade structures. I managed to get a Tom of Light, a Cape +2, +2, and hero armor.

But then Dima forgave me twice, and considering the restart, even more.

First, he had a great Vitya, who, after grabbing the meat, easily took the Castle. But then, Anven couldn't handle the Demon in the Castle. The Demon managed to get reinforcements and overwhelm the Druids, Butterflies, and Fighters. +3 Mummies very effectively countered the archer stack.

Thanks to Dima for the game; it was a pleasure to play.
Good luck in the future and victory in the tournament.

I think I’ll post again.
About the game with Igrok - -76
He's a rather peculiar person, even very much so.
But never mind.
The problem is basically this:
I found a mage at the end of week 2 of month 2.
He locked himself in his Castle.
I didn't dare attack.
I decided to hang out nearby.
A new week began, and the mage attacked with purchased growth, after running around on level-up tiles (+morale and +luck).
I wrote in chat that red rush was prohibited.
In response, I heard something incoherent.
I didn't argue.

In general, I couldn't explain to my opponent that it contradicts the rules.
Maybe you can.


Next, I will post the ICQ log.

“Red-rush” is prohibited, i.e., attacking with red on the first day of the week with purchased growth (the red player can attack on the first day, but without purchasing growth).

Igrok... (00:25:11 17/11/2011)
you can’t attack a city or a hero))
Igrok... (00:25:20 17/11/2011)
are you Russian or what?
V.D. (00:25:35 17/11/2011)
where do you see the word CITY there?
V.D. (00:25:40 17/11/2011)
show me
Igrok... (00:25:53 17/11/2011)
the words about “red rush” imply a city
Igrok... (00:26:10 17/11/2011)
if you are playing for the first time, it's not my fault)
V.D. (00:26:16 17/11/2011)
ok
Igrok... (00:26:56 17/11/2011)
so, it turns out that you blocked my city and dragged war into it))

KillAndAction (Fortress, Kilghan) won against Raykkonen (Haven, Irina) in M3, 2-1-6.
He was doing well throughout the game, but in the last 10 game days, he started losing badly. As a result, he lost half of his towns and almost all of his heroes (3 left). But he had yellow boots, untouched, blessed cyclops (since week 2), warmongers, and geese.
I had to run away from Irina, luckily she was without logistics. I managed to get into the opponent's starting town while the opponent's main hero was absent; he didn't have a chain, and he couldn't reach the end of the current week, so he surrendered...
Thanks for the game!

Igrok- -76 (Wizard Nargon) defeated SylarOff (Necromancer Lucretia) 2.2.4 template m3

What can I say to the mage, first time he attacked with summoned titans and 10 mages, thought he'd fix something, second time he attacked without summoning, same result, but the opponent decided to just run around when it was clearly a loss, simply wasting his own time and showing no respect for the opponent, would have said thanks for the game but no reason to, bad person, radish ))

bmay (Necropolis, Vlad) defeated Oneman (Rampart, Mephala) on Spider 1-4-6

We started with a third attempt, but luckily, there were no dwelling of archers, but there were 1, 3, and 4, plus the well-known Orange-Sin (+1 vampire). During the exploration, I quickly cleared the starting area and broke through the portal to the adjacent area 1-1-5. There was snow and no roads; I spent a day there and realized that without logistics, there was nothing to be gained – I retreated. I ventured into the second portal – desert, but with roads and many treasure chests. I cleared treasure chests with vampires and archers; I was lucky the first time – in a chapel, I found the Crystal of Secret Knowledge and immediately the second time – Necropolis gave me logistics. Things became more interesting. But only until I saw elders with a magic orb and druids with cerberuses on the portals. I realized that I couldn't break through and retreated to the third, still unexplored, portal in my own zone.

With the Path of War and finding the Path, I rushed to the end of the zone and saw a portal with a guard in the form of elders with a fireball. But there was nothing else to do; the pace wouldn't allow me to go back. I attacked and managed, thanks to the fact that my hero was already level 27 and the crystal helped.

Behind the portal was a treasure. Not very rich, 3 dragon artifacts, a ring with +10 to initiative. For a week, I cleared the treasure with 350 skeletons and 47 unupgraded vampires, and at the same time, I upgraded Chaos and my hero to level 40. And then I was lucky for the third time – in a pyramid, I got the Summon Elementals spell, with which I defeated the mentor and got fire elementals. There I also found another stash of ghosts; on 1-4-1, I accumulated 160 ghosts. I was already going to break through, take all the meat, and go through the Gate of the Underworld. In the castle, I got the Summon Phoenix spell, and with it, I could break through any Gate of the Underworld. But I saw the Tome of Summoning.

Then it was simple – I broke through the portal from my treasure to the resource-rich opponent and in 2 days, I reached his castle.

There, Mephala was already waiting for me with purchased, but unupgraded, troops. I attacked, and at first, I thought I would do a hit-and-run (crystal with 960 damage), but the advantage was too great. The unkillable phoenix and 123 fire elementals quickly destroyed all the knight's troops, and the hero (1960 HP) nullified all the attacks of his troops.

Thank you, Oneman, for the game. It's a pity that I wasn't so lucky in this game. The rematch is on me.
