01/22/12, Group H, Wladysha (red, Castle, Valeska, Arlash) defeated VanjaM (blue, Barbarian, Gurnisson, Gurnisson) 2sm4d(3) 311

113 merged on wolves because their morale dropped from the first turn, then on 124 in the medusa lair, they suffered heavy losses as 2 stacks of griffins and crusaders were frozen. On 125, I see the opponent and attack with Arlash, managing to transfer the troops and we both end up with 0. Afterwards, there are problems with money; for about a month, I'm constantly hiring a couple of units and there are no battles, and only by the 3rd month, I manage to win.

23.01.12 Group D, The_Bloody_fighter (blue, Castle, Turis, Turis) def MoM (red, Tower, Torosar, Torosar) 2sm4d(3) 145
Took a rest 113 on the wipe and got a PH, well it's my own fault, shouldn't have thrown the game.

In the first week before day five, I just ran around my small respawn and cleared everything in sight, at least to level up a bit. There was a path to the zone only through an orc horde and a horde of Centaurs, which I couldn't break through with 14 shooters -))......Then I gather two crypts, buy one horse, run to the portal, and bam, there's a treasure zone -))...holy crap

On the second week, I took a mercury mine there, then walked home on foot due to lack of gold, bought everything, and broke through to Conflux. There were tons of resources and gold there + 3 Griffin Conservatories (4+1+1), 2 of which were minis I discovered not long after. I went to collect Medusa hives myself.

On the third-fourth week, I bought everything up, grabbed 2 minis, stacked mass low-levels and took the max Griffin Conservatory, then 4 Dragon Fly Hives for a total of 24 ducks and at 145 GO. There the opponent was standing with Djinns, while the other hero was already with the remnants of his army, nothing difficult.
Thanks for the game!

22.01.12 mhhf (red, dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def vanobsb (blue, tower, Nilla, Gurnisson) 2sm4d(3) 123


Took all the rest + opponent by tech re (1 road to ГО) gave me pure chocolate. Shakti with 3 stacks, level 2 built, 7 heroes on day two, 2 Griffin Conservatories (the first singleton) + dragons on the main behind a hundred unupgraded dogs. I had never seen such a setup on SMK before. :p

In the end, I started underground, Dragon Fly Hive near the castle behind mages, lots of blocks, resources unknown where, little money. Lost my hero with a harpy trying to place 7 stacks of 8 skeletons under meteor shower :D, I really needed gems to build minotaurs.

Saved by an angel taken on 112, it did the carrying, and the artifacts were decent. +2 +2 to magic on 113, +5 to attack on 114, +3 def on 116 and a secondary Inferno. Revealed a treasure zone with Dragon Fly Hives and various goodies, but first I needed to find money and buy growth.

Decided to go topside to break for money, but news of the loss came.
Opponent declined auto. :smile32:
Thanks for the game.


Our discussion resembles a story from the forum in the funny and curious situations section where someone was very surprised why you would place single units, since you are obviously preparing a grim fate for them. Moreover, the player was genuinely outraged how one could not care about one's army and be so inhumane... :D

Yeah... Confirmed.
I probably put myself in a bad position from the first move.
For the life of me, without normal hideaways I don't understand how to fight with Tower. No meat at all.
In short, I spent a whole week running around the respawn, at the start of the second I decided to take a Griffin Conservatory 1 with an upgraded stack. Failure...

Thanks to the opponent for the game and for fear play.

Yeah... I confirm.
I probably put myself in a bad position from the start.
Honestly, I don't understand how to fight with a Fortress without decent defensive positions. The troops are weak.
Basically, I spent a whole week wandering around the map, and in the beginning of the second week, I tried to take control point 1 with an upgraded stack. It failed...

Thanks to my opponent for the game and for the "fear play."
Well, how can I put it? 6 Nagas, a couple of hundred Gremlins, and some Gargoyles, Golems, and Mages take and max out control point 2 in the second week without a Grand Strategist, let alone control point 1. You move the Gremlins into a corner and the Mages, close in with the Nagas and Gargoyles, the Golems absorb damage from the right stacks, and then you shoot everything down.

So, 2 weeks of the tournament have already passed! :rolleyes:
Groups A and F were particularly impressive:smile20: Well done, guys, you started the game actively!!! A great example of how to compete in tournaments, rather than dragging things out and flipping a coin:smile43:
JustObserver, HellLighT, Messiah, Necrotal, Pyre, congratulations on the games you played in the group stage!:smile12: I hope you enjoyed it and gained some good experience in tournament games!:smile54:

Players Demon13, Amisterio, Blastlife, Ihtiandr, as far as I understand, did not get in touch within 2 weeks:smile29:. No one warned me about their absence either. If these players do not show up before the end of the tournament (or by the time all the games in the group stage are played), they will be given technical losses for the games they did not play.:smile19:

113 lost to wolves because morale kicked in for them from the first turn, then at 124 in the medusa dwelling heavy losses because 2 stacks of griffins and crusaders were frozen, at 125 I see the opponent, I split with Arlach, manage to transfer the troops and we both wipe each other out to zero, then money problems, for about a month I stall with a couple units, constant battles, no army, and only by month 3 did I manage to win


It happened. A decent start, on the respawn there was an external dwelling of ogres and orcs. Then I discovered that one secondary hero was blocked by 10-19 horses, and the other was blocked by impassable rocks. In the Pandora's box I found 50 wolves, went to the opponent. At 127 I attacked the castle. I thought there was a scout hero sitting there, but it turned out to be the opponent's GG, I didn't take the entire army with me, attacked with 1 angel, 2 bears, and split the birds. Their army had only about 20 pikemen and about 20 griffins, but I was killed by archery and ballistics. Then there were some stupid slap fights, in general I had no enthusiasm to play, I just sat on the respawn and built the Capitol.

As far as I understand, players Demon13, Amisterio, Blastlife, Ihtiandr haven't contacted anyone in 2 weeks:smile29:. No one warned me about their absence either. If these players don't show up before the end of the tournament (or by the time all group stage games are played), they will be given technical losses for the unplayed games.:smile19:


Thank you for your understanding; all games will be played by the end of the tournament, according to the rules. Currently, there is very little time, as it's exam season. Everyone experiences it differently; for me, it's like I can barely leave my room.
At the moment, I have a saved game with Tootsie Pie (123 or 124). I've contacted other opponents, but due to a lack of time, no agreements have been made.

22.01.12 ariputra (red, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor) def Memphis (blue, Castle, Valeska, Valeska) 2sm4d(3) 124

No rests were taken,
I had - external dwellings of elves, centaurs, dwarves, and unicorns but with a bag of gold stuffed in for 20-49 Wizards
Memphis had - 2 marksmen and 2 swordsmen

2 roads - to the metro 20-49 gr eyes and necro secondary 20-49 fire elementals, triple ГО along no-road, on the 1st there was 1 experience stone, a free Tree of Knowledge, several level-up spots, external dwellings of elves and centaurs, tried to use chains to repel money and resources, in a prison a lvl 5 hero with 7 basilisks by 116 broke through to the necro secondary but the road turned out to be blocked by 50-99 gr griffins behind an artifact and a scroll, decided not to fight and went the long way around, home on 13456 in the Citadel, on 122 reached the necropolis, on 123 jumped into a Town Portal two meters away from which the enemy's castle turned out to be, there was no one at home, camped overnight, on 124 killed a few low-level units and attacked Valeska

Thanks for the interesting game!
I confirm. I think I should have taken a rest, only one road and even that led to a portal. I didn't think it through properly right away. And letting my castle be captured with unclaimed growth was just the peak of my stupidity. I had the money, but no – I thought I'd claim it all at once. You always have to keep in mind that an opponent can jump out of the portal at the most inopportune moment.

d-neez - used all restarts 111, Valeska has 33 archers on 111 in front))
on 112 the entrance to the Dungeon is guarded by a pack of gold golems, a plan is born to suddenly attack the opponent, on 115 Valeska captures a hole of archers from the high elves (pack) and on 122 breaks through underground losing 15 archers on a pack of shooters with 17 royal griffins, 8 swordsmen, 58 pikemen and with 53 archers and stats )) 3.3.1.1. but with the necklace of swiftness... d-neez feeds a scout to the slaughter and Shakti immediately attacks 6.4.2.1. with tactics 2 and 14 Evil Eyes, 8 Medusas, 6 Minotaurs, about 100 Troglodytes and a bunch of Harpies, neither has any magic, archers decide the outcome of the battle and Valeska emerges victorious with 20-something archers and 30 pikemen. d-neez surrenders.
Thanks for the game.

Confirmed. Restarted 3 awful underground maps, the fourth wasn't any better — Shakti with 1 stack, Harpies not built, they're also not with the second hero, 2 chests of 1000 each, the third had a useless artifact, in short a money crunch, barely got Minotaurs into the Fort, thought maybe I could manage a re on encounter 117, roads were slow, roads led to both exits from the metro, and who knows if I'd guess the adjacency right or not, the 10-19 Archmages and 10-19 Snipers guarding them also didn't inspire confidence in a bunch of Troglodytes, 7 Beholders, and 4 Medusas )) plus who knows what's guarding the outside of the metro... Decided not to push, took out a secondary Necromancer on 115, no freebies at all, thought about breaking through the Archmages on 121 with growth, but the opponent breaks through the Snipers, didn't have money for a Citadel, decided not to drag it out and attacked, had higher stats, but the lack of Expert Tactics and the opponent having a speed +1 artifact allowed him to block my shooters. GG, thanks for the game

Confirmed.
Yes, I had connection problems that day; for the past 10 days, it has been disconnecting for no reason, and when I turn it back on, the computer says: (failed to connect to the subsystem), so I have to restart it, and I don't know how to fix this. I had prepared for an attack because I saw that the Rampart was superior to me in terms of parameters; I was hoping for luck that I would capture the capital and defend myself there. I had the idea to leave a hero with 1 gold dragon and bring the army in case of trouble, but unfortunately, I changed my mind, although I think it wouldn't have helped anyway...
Thank you for the game.

22.01.12 ariputra (red, Dungeon, Shakti Shakti) def COLORADО (blue, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor) 2sm4d(3) 143

probably the most interesting and dramatic game in all of HeroesWorld

didn't take rests
there are external dwellings of Manticores and Minotaurs, slow roads, Shakti with 2 stacks, level 2 not built,

on week 1 took external dwellings, 2 mini crypts, water mill, 3 mysterious gardens, prison with Zubin level 1, Gnoll Pit, there is a stable but very far off-road, cleared some money and resources, 6 heroes, Minotaurs in Citadel, at the end of the week had a lot of money could have also built Manticores but never found mercury, Shakti with Minotaurs went to the grass secondary hero

on week 2 on the elf secondary, lots of money, several upgrades, max Dragon Fly Hives, built Mage Guild with Haste, Slow Shield and Lightning, but no Earth or Air, broke through to the underground near ГО, ring +1/1 luck and morale, bow +5% and helmet +3 knowledge, thanks to expert Tactics managed to break through 55 Liches with a gr stack for armor +5c and Genies for shield +6z, nearby was a Dragon Fly Hive with 50-99 gr Swordsmen blocking the passage further into the treasure zone, but ran out of mana didn't dare fight, no one to pass the war machine to and Shakti camps with Evil Eyes (, at home Castle, in the secondary elves

on week 3 was thinking of going into the treasure zone, but positioned incorrectly and failed to bring the growth, from the scouting lit up an Inferno secondary and access to the opponent, whether the guard is broken or not not visible but resources nearby untouched, no place to replenish mana, decided to replenish mana in Inferno and go towards blue, 133 underground guard not broken, 134 Shakti took blue's capital, which turned out to be
very close, Dragons built, Castle, Mage Guild 2 with Blind, growth partially bought, Shakti camps in the castle on Pegasi, the sent scout immediately gets a ticket to the tavern from a scout hero with 4 Angels, either immediately or in a day Ivor returns has Angels, don't dare attack with Dragons,

build a chain to bring the growth, Ivor went into the underground, took the Inferno secondary and blocked the road, Shakti sits in the castle, growth went back, in the distance on the road Solmyr is visible with 2 stacks of gr Pegasi, Shakti could reach him but couldn't return back, lucky that nearby the Demons weren't killed, was afraid there is Mage Guild 4 and Solmyr would attack with meat and hit with a chain, as it turned out later in the Inferno secondary level 3 was built and it was possible to build level 4, Shakti with 6 Pegasi kills Solmyr and crashes against Demons, made another sortie for an upgrade )

on 142 had an idea to break through GO 100-249 gr Pit and transfer the growth, but Colorado conveniently stood in the passage leading to GO, was thinking either to go into the underground for war machines or to attack, 143 took the premax Naga artifact, sold everything down to zero, bought Dessa, 2 Dragons 2 Unicorns 14 Grands + some meat, in case Shakti can't pull it off,

sweated through the most intense fiery battle, no Air or Earth, 50 mana, Ice Bolt for 170/8, Blind, Slow, Haste, blue has 22 mana, closed myself in the top corner, Ice Bolt into the Grands, immediately got Mass Slow, Evil Eyes and Medusas chipped away at the Grands, Colorado slowly approached, waited, hit with Angels and Dragons, after Mass Shield and the first removal of Blind from Angels he ran out of mana, Ice Bolt Evil Eyes and Medusas almost killed the Wyvern, the Ballista helped a lot, which finished off the Grands and helped chip away at the Angels, towards the end 30 Evil Eyes 7 Medusas remained - no shooting and Ballista, blue has 2 Angels 1 Grand and tent, the tent countered the Ballista, with a counterattack the Evil Eyes managed to kill another Angel, Shackles of War prevented retreat, although there was no money to ransom Shakti anyway

Dessa killed Ivor with the loss of Unicorns and singles, returned artifacts, didn't have enough movement to return to Castle, in blue's capital singles of Goblins and 2 Centaurs, no change, heroes start gathering towards Dessa, started worrying when I saw Kyrre with 88 Imps 20 Gnolls 5 Dwarves 48 Gog, 2 singles of gr Pegasi and comparable stats, thought that's it, now she will kill Dessa take all artifacts and return the Castle, but 2 Dragons and Grands held out.

thanks for the interesting game!
