Bolivar (mages, Hafiz) defeated JonnyP (demons, Nibros), Rainbow, 2-2-4.

The opponent kept demons for himself, I chose mages.
Hafiz was given at the start, with dwellings of levels 1, 3, and 4. There was a hut in the starting area. Therefore, I developed quickly, merging units of level 1. I reached level 25 and decided to go to the opponent through the Gate of the Underworld, but I didn't reach the treasure by the third week - I saw in the tavern that I was ahead of Nibros. I bought a bow and the armor of a forgotten hero in the store. As a result, I didn't have enough money to buy genies and rakshasa. But it was already irrelevant.
Thank you for the game.

HoM[M]ie (Academy, Orah) defeated JonnyP (Necropolis, Naadir) - 3.2.1, "labyrinth"

The starting conditions weren't great, only dwellings of levels 2 and 4, I went into the resource area, cleared it, but lost a lot of troops and became discouraged - by the end of the first month, the army was weak. But nothing, neither of us was in a hurry - I'll catch up, I thought. I returned from the resource area to the adjacent zone, logistics weren't given, I slowly climbed the ladders in the center, collecting artifacts, cleared almost everything, jumped into the nearest portal - oops, a treasure! (And how did I guess? It's a very rigid pattern!) Well, let's crawl and merge there. I killed everyone with mages and level 1 gargoyles. I collected half of the gnome armor and half of the dragon armor, the Unicorn Bow, but I didn't have enough of the amulet for +1 to defense to complete the set. In general, I didn't collect anything, but I reached level 30, and I implemented the idea of developing the mentor: spell power + empathy + Orah's ability + Summoning. At this time, Hafiz with titans, gremlins, and machines was clearing the second adjacent zone. Well, and my slowness played a cruel joke - Naadir suddenly broke through the Gate of the Underworld and immediately captured the castle, cutting off a week's worth of growth. I panicked and ran back with Orah - I made it to the castle, where I barely managed to create a chain that ran along the edge of my zone, unnoticed by the invaders, reuniting Hafiz's and Orah's troops. But still, it wasn't enough, because the losses, considering the weekly growth eaten by the undead, were: >100 gremlins, >50 gargoyles, >30 golems, >50 (!) mages, 13 genies, 2 titans.
I attacked the castle with half of my army. Fortunately, Jonny also lost and didn't have time to transfer the dragons from his homeland, but he had a lot of low-level troops. When all this horde crawled out from behind the gates onto my small squad, I lost heart, but the phoenix and fire elementals, very strong thanks to two perks from Summoning and spell power at level 30, managed to barely defeat them all. Counterspell and deflection also helped; the army was as if covered with a protective dome, and Orah was great - a massive Heavenly Shield with such development and +8 defense. I love this girl! :D
The final battle was very exciting and interesting, with a lot of emotions! Thank you again, Jonny, for the game!
P.S. Replay below.

JonnyP(Haven, Iris) lost to Hero_of_heroes(Necropolis, Zoltan) 2-2-2, Smile.

At first I wanted to take a restart: the respawn turned out to be a thick intestine, where ore was two days away from wood with a stable... and Zoltan isn't the ultimate dream against a human, but I figured it's fine, overall it's normal, but it turned out not just normal, but practically sweet:) the adjacent zone, secondary zone, and treasure zone were Necropolis land, in the starting swamp hut, and the guards weren't very scary either. But of course I haven't played in a while, so at first I had losses in every battle, and I hesitated for a long time whether I should attack the garrison on the first week, afraid of getting hammered:) On the first day of the third week, growing completely bold, I went to break through the passage into the resource zone against a horde of hydras without bringing my troops, losing 50 zombies in the process, and believing in my invincibility, I didn't prepare a chain, as a result I had to waste 3 days and go to the town zone. While I was walking, the chain somehow formed and the vampires with upgraded zombies arrived. The town turned out to be Academy, which upset me because they have a lot of mechanical units... and they need a lot of resources for development, so in the end I just built gremlins and a town hall. After capturing one town, I decided to take a second one. While the mage guild was being built in my home town (as always, I'm slow with it...), I roamed around the opponent's town zone, where he hadn't appeared yet. There was already sand there, but I didn't find the town until level 5 was built and decided to teleport home, but then I suddenly realized that I didn't see a single neutral on this territory:) but still I found an elemental repository that for some reason I hadn't taken. And here I was a bit late with creating the chain, losing another day for that:) After that I went to the treasure zone. On the way to the treasure zone, I learned Plague and Weakness from my liches (totally brazen to do that on the treasure zone guard:)) After wandering a bit in the treasure zone, I saw that the opponent had broken into the town zone and decided that I would not go to his town, but meet him there. Having "fed" a bit in the treasure zone (took a Dragon Utopia, several witch huts and pyramids), getting all darkness spells except Sorrow and Charm (though I stupidly lost 100 skeletons and 15 vampires to fire elementals), I portal'd to the mage town on the seventh day. After that, I brought up the army and went on the attack. The opponent decided to suicide into my town and fielded 2 stacks of swordsmen, but for some reason in the front row. On the first turn, half a stack of liches with luck destroyed 1 stack of swordsmen, on the second turn the vampires destroyed the 2nd.

Thanks for the game!

Kapitan (Dread Necromancers) defeated Jonny P (Vittorio Humans) 1-1-2 Spider)))

At the beginning of week 3, he gathered 30 vampires and started from his city towards the last, unexplored portal)) He ran non-stop for almost 2 weeks and arrived at Jonny's city. Jonny clearly didn't expect this, as he hadn't even tried to enter the portal. He took the city, which was empty but fully built up.

Not the best template choice for a game against a Necromancer, clearly.

Raykkonen (Elves, Wing) won against KillAndAction (Humans, Vitia) in M3, for the second month in a row.
There were no trees for about two weeks; he played with Druids and Woodsmen from the outpost, constantly losing Archers. It seemed like his opponent wasn't doing too well either, judging by the stats. In the second month, he successfully captured his opponent's castle with a lot of meat, which led to a loss.
Thanks for the game!

valery (Wizard, Nura) defeated JonnyP (Sylvan, Anven), Chaos, 3rd week

Only had one level 1 Dweller, perfect for a Wizard. Started quickly, got some artifacts, chose Chaos. Dug up all the upgrades in the adjacent areas, leveled up the spell, but out of all the magic items in the starting area and adjacent areas - there wasn't a single Chaos spell. Well, I thought, I'll build a Wizard guild with a library, then we'll have some fun. It turned out to be funny - 7 Dark spells and only 1 from Chaos - thorns:rolleyes:. Had to kill the Elf with meat and thorns with an arrow:D.

Thanks for the game!
