mhhf, thanks, I read Physmig's post, and I mean, what's the point of this "speed-up" mechanic? It's unrealistic, it complicates the game, and it ruins it, in my opinion. Spending the night without an army adds a turn. How is that supposed to make sense? Did he just need a break from his army? )) And what about the army? How are they supposed to travel such long distances from the beginning of the route to the end? All the horses would be exhausted from such a journey! But the main thing is that losing on the "speed-up" is just ridiculous.

Took all the rest + opponent by tech re (1 road in ГО) restored me some real candy. Shakti with 3 stacks, level 2 built, 7 heroes on the second day, 2 Griffin Conservatories (the first one) + dragons on the main behind a hundred unupgraded dogs. I had never seen such a setup on sm before. :p
As a result, I started underground, a Dragon Fly Hive near the castle behind the mages, lots of blocks, resources in unknown places, little money. Lost the hero with a harpy trying to set up 7 stacks of 8 skeletons under meteor shower :D, really needed the gems to build minotaurs.
The angel taken on 112 saved me, and he carried the fight; also the artifacts were decent. +2 +2 to magic on 113, +5 to attack on 114, +3 defense on 116, and a secondary inferno. I revealed the treasure zone with Dragon Fly Hives and various goodies, but first I had to find money and buy growth.
Decided to go up to break through for money, but got news of a loss. The opponent refused auto. :smile32: Thanks for the game.

Our discussion reminds me of a story from the forum in the humorous and funny situations section, where a person was very surprised why to place single units, since you are knowingly preparing a sad fate for them. Moreover, the player was genuinely outraged how one could not care about one's army and be so inhumane... :D

Our Amisterio hasn't logged into the site at all since the 7th, and hasn't contacted anyone. I agree with the question; maybe we can replace these people while there's still time.
A monster with 10 speed (and there's only one like that, without considering specializations) already provides the maximum movement points boost of 2000.
No. 10 speed gives 1950 or 1960. A Green Dragon has 10 speed. In general, you can ignore this, of course.

After fixing the connection issues (which later reappeared during the game), we started playing after 1 tech restart. The layout is acceptable, no hiding spots, but there's a prison nearby, a Dwarf Cottage right next to me, a Griffin Conservatory not far off, and easy guards on secondary resources. I split up, my main runs to the secondary Conflux 113 — I take it, immediately break up and run back toward the secondary Tower, beat the guard and send a scout hero from the prison in there, level 5 with singles and fairly strong shooters, while I head back toward the Griffin Conservatory. I position myself so I can take it right away with the growth, the Griffin Conservatory turned out to be a level 2, I sacrificed the scout to check, Shakti already has Oil (though 10 mana and spell power 3 :)). In the town there are Manticores without a Citadel, but that's enough, on day 1 month 2 week 1 I take the Griffin Conservatory, at the same time the scout takes the Tower and starts clearing a fairly rich zone. In the second week, with 2 Angels, I easily take the +6 Attack Sword from the Snipers, clear the area near my main, and also grab an adjacent zone — Inferno in the Dungeon. I thought about it and decided not to rush straight at the opponent, although I think it would have been successful; I went into the treasure zone (which turned out to be surprisingly huge and rich... there were 4 Artifact Markets alone). I'm swimming in artifacts, I take a Dragon Utopia, about 5 Pandora's Boxes (all with experience), and with superior stats and even a collected artifact for +25% to hit points, I run through the adjacent zone toward the opponent. At the exit from my side of the Dungeon, the opponent is waiting for me... with a full army, no splitting. My surprise knew no bounds, because the opponent couldn't have seen me (as he said himself, he wanted to run to me); because of this, I didn't equip either the Shackles of War or the collected artifact, but was standing in Boots, Gloves, and an artifact for -immunity on creatures.. with 5 Black Dragons ;) Despite all this, I significantly outstat the opponent, the army is slightly ahead, but level 22 Shakti is clearly stronger; after disintegrating the opponent's army, he somehow decided not to surrender and ran away with 1 Unicorn )) on the next turn, the game was over. Thanks for the game

01/22/12 Tomash (red, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor) def. Vatya (blue, Castle, Valeska, Crag Hack) 2sm4d(3) 127
We spent a long time maneuvering, I used up all my resources, my opponent had only 1 town left. Ivor got 3 elves, and Mephala had a decent stack of units in the tavern. On turn 111, starting with 60 units, I immediately lost 20 units to a block of 40 ranged units. It was a matter of morale and miscalculation of movement. On the map, I couldn't see anything except a hidden stash of pegasi and a relatively easy path to the secondary town. Turn 112, I attacked the crypt of the undead, taking a couple of treasure chests, a stone of experience, and the hidden stash of pegasi. I got a Grand Order of Titans. Two roads led to 20-49 ranged units and 10-19 snipers. I went into the underground, where there was another treasure chest and a prison with Tisha, who had some snakes for boosting. Along the way, I saw a consulate. On the other side of the map, I saw a hidden stash of wood and another crypt. I passed the army along in a chain, took the map on turn 116, and passed it back. Ivor broke through the consulate's guard (3-4 units with a Graej stack) and continued down the road - another consulate, a single town, but I couldn't take it right away. On turn 117, I had towns 1-6 in the citadel, but no money.
On turn 121, I reached the necropolis, with a dwarven town nearby (20-30 units). I built a market, sold resources from two markets, bought units, moved them in, and took the dwarven town, which turned out to be 20 units. I bought more units, moved them in, and on turn 122, I took the consulate (town 1). Ivor was defeated and retreated to the snipers. The ranged units cleared out the secondary town. I got artifacts with +2 attack and +3 defense, treasure chests, and resources. On turn 125, I reached the snipers and attacked without losses. Near the road, I saw a stable - I headed towards it and spent the night nearby. After the stable, I immediately encountered a blue scout with several stacks. I bought units and passed the entire army. Ivor, with tactics and the "arrow" spell, tried to attack, but the elves didn't finish off a few hit points of the swordsmen. I continued on, saw Crag Hack boosted on champions, but I was two squares short. I passed the turn, and Crag Hack retreated into the darkness. A minute later, he surrendered.
As far as I understand, my opponent had given up on Valeska when he saw that I had a decent army with magic and an angel, and that a confrontation was inevitable, so he decided not to continue.
Thank you for the game

Amisterio hasn't logged into the site at all since the 7th. He hasn't contacted anyone either. I'd like to join the question: can we replace these people while there's still time?
Attention: technical results will be assigned for all games not played within the deadline. That's the solution... But we still hope the guys will show up; there's still enough time. So, let's not panic, we'll wait for the opponents;) Wladysha

It took a long time to describe the game; it ended in the 3rd month and was very intense.
Wladysha how many times do you need to repeat and quote the same thing:confused: If you're participating in the tournament, please take the time to write a complete report; you're not the only one playing...
22.01.12 Group E, kalababa (blue, Barbarian, Gunnison, Crag Hack) def avstrolopitek (red, Tower, Neela, Neela) 2sm4d(3) 121 Used all the restarts, in the tavern Crag Hack, on respawn 2 Dwarf Cottages (10 and 15). On the first turn took the swamp and Rampart and both Dwarf Cottages, cleared the external dwelling of orcs and goblinoids. Gunnison and Crag Hack leveled up decently, but due to the specialty decided to play Crag Hack. In the Citadel got bears. On turn 121 saw the opponent - attacked and won.
It happened, only the loss was not in a Dragon Utopia, but at a Griffin Conservatory on the second. Built a Mage Guild in both castles, checked all altars for Slow and never found it, despite being an expert in Earth magic. Thanks for the game.

Confirmed. On day 111, I cleared the secondary town's guard. It turned out to be quite far away, even though it was on the way; it took 2 days. All the gold mines, crypts, dwarven mine, and 2 goblin camps were located deep within, behind a series of mountains. I decided not to go back and instead searched the secondary town... unfortunately, I didn't find anything interesting, and a week was wasted. I scraped together some gold through the market, built a citadel with nagas. My main hero accidentally attacked (I forgot to transfer) some mobs and ran away (gold wasted). On day 121, I had 0 gold, and my opponent was catching up with a cockroach and goblins. The game is over. In principle, the situation is unclear: was it worth going around the mountains on the rough terrain for the resources, and not taking the secondary town? The border guard was almost at the main town, so I decided to go there first, to the secondary town. It's worth mentioning that I took a rest on day 112, when it seemed like both of us had a good position, but I made a mistake in the placement and ended up facing vampires in a crypt... it seems that game could have been better, considering that the resources were within reach.
