ekzekutor (Dungeon, Erathia) defeated detmers (Academy, Oran) Spider
By the end of week 5, a great Oran army arrived with Light and Arcomage units, with a strong lineup, but Erathia turned out to be slightly better prepared with Shield and Chaos units. Also, the artifacts were quite good.
Thanks for the game.
I confirm - I was unlucky - I wasn't given Log or Defense throughout the game - if that had happened, I would have finished the game 4 days earlier. I also didn't buy Revenge on the road for some reason.

moz (elves, Haven) defeated stefan (blue, Necropolis) Labyrinth 221

Good, stable game. Almost no losses, despite the lack of regeneration and resurrection. The Necropolis player tried to break through to Haven and capture the castle at the end of turn 5, but I saw from the beginning of the game that it would take more than one turn with a log, so I didn't worry, and the portal to the city was available from turn 136. Thanks for the game.

P.S. I wanted to level up a super ability - I was planning to go to the Guild of Heroes in a couple of days and switch to a mentor there - almost everything was ready.

Smerti_Po (dwarf, Erling + Inga) defeated SylarOff (orc, Arghat + Keagan + Kragg) on the sun map, week 6. It was a tough game. It started slowly, even though I had a level 5 dwelling. On the fourth day, I attacked the treasure and lost half of my priests because I made a mistake in the formation and the priests had to engage in melee combat against 30 free cyclops and a hundred executioners. :) On the other hand, there were 200 priests and as many succubi. Naturally, I had to forget about the treasure. I went to look for the orc, and he emerged from the portal and, after running halfway across the map :), attacked... On the seventh day... which decided the outcome of the game. I could have ended it right then, but I fell for a caravan, which turned out to be a diversion, rushing to the secondary town.)) Then we ran around a bit more, and my opponent surrendered. Thank you for the game.

Yeah. I also enjoyed the game. It was intense. Let's go over it in order. Arghat arrived. I decided to play with her. She had a pretty high level. Stats: 32-18-2-6. All experts: Logistics + Pathfinder, Offense, Defense + BDP, Chaos Dampening, Machines. At the beginning, I was doing well. When I started pushing towards the secondary towns, I started taking losses. Mostly small units, but a few larger ones. But the main stack of executioners remained almost intact. Oh, they were dealing a lot of damage! I was also leveling up Keagan, and Kragg arrived quite late. Level 15 and 7 respectively. And what decided the outcome of the game: I broke through to the dwarf. 5 cyclops, 40 executioners, 20 centaurs, and goblins. I saw Erling. Time was running out, so I decided to attack. BUT! I forgot to change my equipment. I had antimagic boots, a cloak, and something else. I realized that I wouldn't win like that. I bought my way out (on the 7th day) with 4 cyclops, 30 executioners, and goblins. I didn't expect Arghat to end up with a goblin. Alas and alack. I'm learning Heroes 5:smile04: But we could have put up a good fight. Thank you for the game.

moz (Elves, Anven) defeated stefan (Blue, Necropolis) Labyrinth 221

Good, stable game. Almost no losses, despite the lack of regeneration and resurrection. The Necropolis player tried to break through to Go and capture the Castle at the end of turn 5, but I saw from the beginning of the game that it would take more than one turn with a Log, so I didn't worry, and I had a portal to the city since turn 136. Thanks for the game.

P.S. I wanted to upgrade a super ability - I was planning to go to Go in a couple of days and retrain in the Mentor there - almost everything was ready.

It happened. The worst possible start - terrible Dwellers and generally bad terrain. I fell hopelessly behind in tempo, and my only hope was that Keegan on the Path of War would make it from Go to the city. I ended the game quickly rather than prolonging it against Anven.
In general, IMHO, this is a hopeless matchup on a large map - and since the maps are random, the result was somewhat predictable... Although, maybe it's just the skill of the players - but I was also playing with almost no losses. 200 skeletons, lost on 1-4-4, didn't change anything.

Thanks for the game.

At the end of week 4, Ossir, level 25, destroyed a town and went looking for an opponent. During the week, he found one, chased Jezebeth, caught up, and Alex didn't have enough money to pay the ransom.
Thanks for the game!

To be more precise, he didn't have enough money to buy his way out. He could have surrendered as early as week 4, as he was falling behind in pace again :( He decided to try to complete the game, and then, when exiting the portal on my side, hundreds of Erls were waiting for him :eek: Everything became clear after I saw the opponent's tracks in both centers. And thank you too.

KillAndAction (demons, Deleb) lost to Bolivar (humans, Vitka + Dugal), Rainbow, week 5. Vitka was in darkness with a dark knight, in the castle with a berserker and a subordinate, mass slow and confusion. The only downside is that he didn't get an education until level 22. Free slot. And he had the path of war. Dugal was in light, didn't have time to develop much, was only level 7 - he was planned to run from week 5, otherwise it wouldn't work. And it was just the week of the archer. Week 4 was the week of illness, I didn't buy everyone, but the training was in full swing - Ellaina with preparation and expert counterattack. Hat for growth, troop gathering. In general, week 4 weakened, but mostly the opponent. In week 5, I received a message about Deleb being defeated. Thank you for the game.

I confirm. It loaded quickly. I was also level 22, with Light (mass attack and righteous + storm) and Darkness (I didn't have time to explore Darkness in my city and the human city, as everything I needed was there), defense with BPD, attack, and logistics.
The defeat was incredibly stupid: I was fighting against 98 Hellhounds, split the Imps into groups of 2, and ran away from them, luring reinforcements from the underworld and destroying them with a ballista. I killed 71 of them, and then I simply forgot to run away, as the aura killed the last unit.
Moreover, there was a human city just two steps away, where I intended to buy out units and finish off the remaining Hellhounds.
I think asking for a reload would have been pointless... :( YOU SUCK, BOLIVAR! :D
It's a pity that I couldn't show my skills in the final. I think I had a good chance of winning.
Thanks for the game!

You're a BAD guy, BOLIVAR! :D

Well... I don't know, maybe to avoid further misunderstandings with opponents, it should be written in the tournament rules that 1 save is allowed upon request? Then I would become a good guy. ))
It's just that I've also had situations where I lost and didn't ask for a save. It's still vivid in my mind how in a game against Tvarina in the last tournament, I lost 50 Succubi on a portal - on the other side there were 4 stacks of 22 Mages each. Turn tempo down the drain, Tvarina was even wondering why I was dragging my feet and not coming to him. I'm not saying I would have beaten the esteemed Tvarina in that game, but I wouldn't have looked so... bad. Well, that's beside the point. Anyway, I don't understand reloads during an official game. For example, mid-month, you need a lot of gold for building, and along the way there are Gargoyles and a Crypt. We enter one external dwelling - there's max spawn, loss, we reload, then we enter a second external dwelling and get a level, gold, and an Expert Tent, for example, then we go back to the first one, having added troops from the Roach. We take it too. Another level. Great, we build up. Yes, that's all fine. But only for practice.
I agree, there are situations when a mouse slips. Or a temporary lapse in judgment occurs. Well, what can I say. That means the one who didn't slip and didn't lapse will win.
That's just my point of view.

There is logic in your words. And you can't argue with logic.

Zak (red, elf, Winraell) defeated Twaryna (blue, underworld, Jezebel + Grok) in the middle of week 6 in the Maze map.
The final map had a dwelling level of 4. I chose Winraell to outpace the demon in terms of tempo and stats. The plan was to level up in Chaos (with Cold), Ballistics, and Sorcery, find something for initiative among the Druids, and then overwhelm the demon. I successfully did all of this and found the Dragon Ring. All that remained was to control the centers to prevent the demon from doing anything! By the end of week 3, I ventured into the first center and immediately found the ring I needed, along with a couple of other artifacts. Then, I saw the demon in another center! It was very far to run to him, so I jumped into a town, took some spells and enchanted creatures, and wanted to run to the enemy. Suddenly, Jezebel unexpectedly appeared in "my" center, and it was very far for me to run there (this was my mistake), and I was also revealed! I went to attack the Guardian (there was no mentor), and after 4 days, I emerged and took the town, which was empty. The demon took a secondary town, and I was idle for 2-3 days, waiting for him. Then, I ran to the zone from which the demon had left to level up and rushed into an impassable portal. Fortunately, it turned out to be a zone where Grok was at level 19 with all his creatures. I was at level 29, and Jezebel with Succubi was nearby. I caught the demon and defeated everyone except for a level 2 creature; the opponent probably didn't have enough money for a bribe. Then, Jezebel attacked – I didn't deploy the Druids and Archers, and I could have paid for it, but the demon didn't take advantage of this and ran away with two creatures. He no longer had anyone to fight with! Thank you for the game; it was educational!

Zak (red, Elf, Wynrael) defeated Twaryna (blue, Inferno, Jezebeth+Grok) mid-week 6 on Maze
The final map had a dwelling on it at position 4. I picked Wynrael to outpace the Demon in tempo and stats. The plan was to level into Chaos (with Cold), BDP, and Sorcery, find something for Druid initiative, and smash the Demon. I succeeded in all of this and found the Dragon Ring. All that remained was to control the centers to prevent the Demon from doing anything! By the end of week 3 I rushed to the first center and immediately found the needed ring and a couple of other artifacts, and then I spotted the Demon in the other center! It was very far to run to him, so I jumped to town, took spells and cursed troops, and was about to run to the enemy when suddenly Jeza appeared unexpectedly in "my" center, and getting there was very far for me (my bad luck), plus I was revealed! I went to beat GO (no Mentor), got out in 4 days, and captured the town where there was no one. The Demon took a secondary town, and I wasted 2-3 days waiting for him. Then I ran to the zone where the Demon had gone to level, and rushed into an unbroken portal — luckily it turned out to be a zone where Grok was level 19 with all his meat. I was level 29, and next to him was Jeza with Succubi. I caught the Demon and killed everyone except his level 2 — apparently the opponent didn't have enough money to buy them back. Then Jeza attacked — I didn't deploy Druids and Archers and could have paid for it, but the Demon didn't take advantage and ran away with 2 chicks. He had no one left to fight! Thanks for the game, it was instructive!

I confirm. We took restarts: the first time, the Elf had 2 external dwellings of shooters — immediate restart, understandable :). The second time, there was one external dwelling of shooters, but Zak takes a restart — didn't like the respawn, I think. At the start, Jezebeth, on the second day Grok arrives. Both are given Light immediately + Jezebeth gets a Machine. Later I find an outpost — there are chicks there — Jezebeth automatically becomes the main hero + I plan to level Grok as a secondary hero. I moved very briskly, everything was going well. Second week: -20% defense for evil — tolerable... But the most crucial week 4: -20% initiative for evil — that was already brutal... I had to consciously give up the castle, because fighting with -20 initiative is madness. Plus I spotted the enemy's ring of +10 initiative for shooters. Otherwise everything was going smoothly until I ran into a portal from the center onto 180 Archmages in 4 stacks. Brutal. I had to leave 25 Succubi. In the second center I found a Stable and Boots of the Traveler (already had green boots) + Expert Logistics — I ran excellently. By the end of week 4, the Elf came and took the empty castle (I had upgraded all the meat and taken it away). Basically everything was going according to plan. I recaptured the secondary town and found both treasuries — the enemy wasn't there. But when the enemy ran in my direction, on the way he broke through a portal from the center and appeared right in front of my nose :( My mistake was that the main meat was on Grok, who was not far from Jeza. On the other hand, portal luck... In any case, a well-deserved victory for Zak. Thanks for the game!

dmitrik (Dwarves, Helmar) defeated kontra (League, Irbet) with a Spider, end of week 5. It was a fun game. The fun started when kontra messaged me about taking a Watchtower; he took it on day 3, and 467 units were stationed there. There were no more dwellings, and the more units, the better the chances against the League. By this time, the main force was Brand, so I immediately bought Helmar, and he went to a Drake, then to two Drakes, and in the middle of week 3, he reached a Treasure Room. He barely had time to defend it when a furious Irbet flew in with 11 Red Dragons (why not Black Dragons, no one knows, not even kontra)), 14 Black Women, Assassins, and Furies, and went straight for my Dwarf. Helmar had 15 Earls, 21 Elders, and about 70 Shields. As a result of the battle, I was in the tavern with a couple of dozen Shields, and the enemy was walking around in my Treasure Room with two Dragons and a couple of Women, looking at the artifacts. On day 7 of week 4, Irbet ran to the Castle; only the Shield from the summoning saved me. 4 Dragons survived, and another 4 were not yet bought, along with 15 Bears. The enemy still had a full stack of Lizards that were not yet bought, and I think I killed the rest. Then, kontra tried to catch his hero in the tavern, and I went through my resource to the second Treasure Room. I only had time to run, take the Wood, and the Sunken Temple. Portal home and a battle in the field with the enemy. The Dwarves, under the blessing and with the Cursing ability, and with luck, hit very hard; almost all of them had morale and hit again, so the League's meat fell quite quickly. Thank you for the game; it was interesting.

By this time, Brand was my main hero, so I immediately bought Helmar and sent him to a Drake, then to two Drakes, and in the middle of week 3, he reached a Treasure Room. I barely had time to defend it when a furious Irbet rushed in with 11 Red Dragons (why not Black Dragons, nobody knows, not even kontra)), 14 Black Sisters, Assassins, and Furies, and went straight for my Dwarf. Helmar had 15 Earls, 21 Deads, and almost 70 copies. As a result of the battle, I was in the tavern with a couple of dozen copies, while the enemy was walking around my Treasure Room with two Dragons and a couple of Sisters, looking at the artifacts :)

On day 7 of week 4, Irbet rushed to my Castle; only the Shield from summoning saved me. 4 Dragons survived, and another 4 were unbought, along with 15 Bears. The enemy still had a full stack of Lizards unbought, and I think I killed the rest. Then, kontra tried to catch his hero in the tavern, while I used my resource to reach the second Treasure Room. I only had time to run, take the Wood, and the Sunken Temple. I opened a portal home and fought the enemy in the field. The Dwarfs, with Bless and Cursing, and with Luck, hit very hard, almost all of them got morale and attacked again, so the League's units fell quite quickly.

Thanks for the game, it was interesting.

Well, the Red Dragons were for the Treasure Room, to have retaliation and one-time regeneration), who would have thought that a Dwarf from a Treasure Room would attack, it's not a Necropolis after all... But yes, until the last battle, I felt quite calm, maybe that's what led to my downfall; I should have taken Raptors in the second battle )))

Will the Orcs of Krag defeat Vip's Mages and Razak Sun in 2 weeks?
Krag only found resources on the 3rd day, which made the first week a bit difficult financially, but in the second week, he started clearing out resource locations and quickly improved his economy. He developed to level 2, and the units of Hagesh also helped. Vip, on the other hand, had a very difficult time, and at the end of the 2nd week, they decided not to continue. Thanks for the game.
