23.03.2012 dom2(blue, random, Conflux, random, Fiur, Sorsha) def Pyre(red, random, Rampart, random, Elshar, Elshar) Speed1(M-U) 125

With 30+ elementals made Expert, I released Sorsha at lvl 10, and she became the main hero; on the first turn, I took out the computer's stacks, birds in the Citadel, hiding the Efreeti, scouted a block of Djinns in the treasure zone, 2 Griffin Conservatories. At the start of the second week, I built the Griffin Conservatory; in the treasure zone, with 50+ upgraded Djinns, two Pandora's Boxes gave 15 Scorpicores and 25 Medusas; I took the Dungeon, which had a Mage Guild. On the next turn, Red attacked with a mage having 180+ mana, but I had too much meat.
Thanks for the game.

03/14/2012 NoAccess (red, Necropolis, Tant, Tant) def d0mino (blue, Castle, Valeska, Shakti) 2SM4d 113.

Two players met, both playing online for the first time, following all the rules against a live opponent. They initially took all possible restarts.
The game began. On the second turn, he destroyed 2 crypts, gathered resources, and was almost certain he would have, at a minimum, knights, or even angels by the end of the week. However, while moving along the only road, on turn 113, he noticed 50-99 manticores, and while looking for a way around them, he misclicked and ended up in a group of 10-12 upgraded snakes. Naturally, he lost his entire army. Afterwards, he simply looked at how he could have avoided the manticores, took a screenshot, and surrendered.

Please try to spell the opponents' nicknames correctly...

Both decided to try some diplomacy, but it wasn't very successful. Only the Hired Guards joined my opponent, while towards the end, 78 Griffins joined me, though at that point it no longer mattered. So the Generator paid its debts and dished out such a sweet setup — Jebus Cross pales in comparison:) 2 native secondary skills, a Stable right under the castle, 3 Cons and 3 Hives:eek: ., a bit further another Hive and a Con, so by day 125 I stood at a Dragon Utopia with 47 Dwarfs and 7 Angels (3 Con minimum:mad: ), but my opponent's situation was far more modest and he conceded again in the Naga Dwelling.
Thanks for the game and "Glory to the Great Generator":D

Don't forget the game date...

We both decided to try some diplomacy, but it wasn't very successful. My opponent only got some capes to join him, while I got 78 griffins at the very end, when it basically no longer mattered. So the generator paid off its debts and dished out such a treat that Jebus Cross pales in comparison:) 2 native secondary skills, a stable right under the castle, 3 consa and 3 beehives :eek: ., a little further another beehive and a consa, in the end on 125 I stood at a Dragon Utopia with 47 nagas, 7 angels (3 min consa :mad: ), but my opponent's situation was much more modest and he surrendered again at the nagashnik.
Thanks for the game and "Glory to the Great Generator":D[/QUOTE
It happened, on the respawn one consa 1 is visible, I didn't see any beehives at all, and I freed Tanta from prison very late, so there were no options. Thanks for the game

25.03.2012 (Red, Necropolis, Tamika, Tamika) def SolncevKoT (Blue, Castle, Valeska, Gunar) 2SM4d 123.
It was great for two days, and there seemed to be money nearby, but in the end, I went the wrong way, lost my hero with his army, and the knights were a bonus, but I lost many days and the army became mini. Also, I was getting sleepy, so I decided to write GG.

Who won?

It was great for two days, and it seemed like victory was near, but in the end, I went the wrong way, lost my hero and army, and the knights were all that remained. Considering that I lost many days and my army became small, and I was also getting sleepy, I decided to write GG.

Not bad, I managed to get a good start. But my opponent didn't have a good game. Thanks for the game!!!!

03/24/2012 VanjaM (red, Necropolis, Clavius) def d0mino (blue, Conflux, random (Ainain), Ainain) 2sm4d (3) 133. My second game. We took all possible restarts. In the end, strangely enough, I got the best setup out of all the ones before. Ainain as the starting hero, a hero with +1 mercury per day in the tavern, and 8 air creatures from two heroes at the beginning. According to the timing, the birds appeared on day 171, but then, a standard mistake of newbies (as I think), he miscalculated the strength and attacked 80 hellhounds with 4 birds, lost 2 birds and all his gold, morale dropped, and the economy went to zero. He decided not to farm an army, but to apply plan B. He bought Luna, quickly farmed her to expert in fire magic and resources for GM4, but Armageddon didn't appear. He decided to surrender.

My second game. We took all possible restarts. As a result, oddly enough, I got the best layout of all the ones before. Ainaín starting, a hero with +1 mercury per day in the tavern and 8 air elementals from two heroes at the start. By timing, birds were built by 171, but then, the standard noob mistake (as I think), I misjudged the strength and rushed into 80 hell hounds with 4 birds, lost 2 birds and all my mana, lost morale, economy went to zero. I decided not to farm an army, but to apply plan B. I buy Luna, quickly farm expert fire magic and resources for GM4, but Armageddon doesn't come. Decided to surrender.

That happened
From the start I collected 100+ skeletons. In the end I ended up with those 100 skeletons by the end of week 1. Captured 2 secondary towns, 1 of them native, have earth magic and decent stats. Griffin Conservatory at ГО is scouted, took it on 127 (turned out to be max). By 133 I had collected 20 ducks from respawns and nearly 400 bones. Stats 10 5 6 7, was getting ready to break the GO's hydras, but my opponent didn't make it
Thanks for the game!

03/23/2012 dom2 (blue, random, Tower, random, Solmir, Solmir) def PlayHeroes_HP (red, random, Swamp, random, Bronze Bronze) Speed1 (M-U) 115 The cunning computer player struck unexpectedly, and my opponent surrendered. I had a native hero with three blocked growth orders. I took cities from the computer players, decided to develop mages, and build Guild Masters. I had the Moon faction. Thanks for the game.

A cunning computer player struck unexpectedly, and my opponent surrendered. I had a native trio blocked by the Gate of the Month, took cities from the computer players, decided to level up mages and build a Guildhall. I had the Moon faction.
Thanks for the game.

The computer player defeated a weak opponent, took a castle, and bought everything it could.
Thanks for the game!

03/26/12 Vitalyi_B (Red, Rampart, Kir, Kir) def d0mino (Blue, Tower, Ain, Gurnisson) 2sm4d(3) 213
At first, it seemed like I got a decent resource spawn, with a Gremlin nest right under my nose and some resources scattered nearby, plus good heroes. But, as it turned out later, one road to the Swamp secondary resource is blocked by a double stack (50-100 grade harpies and 20-50 grand harpies), and the other road is a double Guardian of Order (4 rusty golems and 40 red dragons). After struggling through the rough terrain, I finally took the secondary resource. Deep in the swamp, I found a dungeon with extremely unpleasant guards in the form of snipers. On day 144, I went back, gathered nagas and medusas, bought everything I could in the castle, and tried to break through the Guardian of Order, but I lost almost my entire army, and immediately after the Guardian of Order, I was ambushed by the opponent.

At first, it seemed like a decent respawn had rolled, an external dwelling of gremlins right under my nose, a few resources scattered around, and good heroes. But as it turned out later, one road to the swamp secondary was blocked by a double stack (50-100 Harpy Hags and 20-30 Grand Elves), and the other road was a double ДГО (4 Rust Dragons and 40 Red Dragons). After struggling somewhat through the native impassable terrain, I finally took the secondary. Deep in the swamp, I found a dwelling with extremely unpleasant guards in the form of Snipers. On day 144, I turned back, collected Naga Banks and Medusa Dens, bought everything I could in the castle, and tried to break through the ДГО, but I lost almost my entire army, and right after the ДГО the opponent crushed me.

First online experience) On the first week, scouting showed that another Rampart was nearby, there were 2 Griffin Conservatories and a Dragon Utopia, another secondary guarded by Grand Elves and Fanatics, and underneath them, Thieves, but they were positioned so that it seemed they couldn't be beaten... so I decided to leave all that for later and go for lossless development. On day 124, I took the 2-1 Rampart and built everything except Dragons in the first one and Elves in the Citadel in the second one, on day 3, Conflux and Unicorns in the second one. At the beginning of month 2, I was getting ready to break the Griffin Conservatories with the Dragon Utopia and head through the secondary towards the opponent (I really didn't want to lose troops on the Dragons) when I saw his main had broken through the Dragons and was left with only 9 Naga Queens...

Thanks for the game.

26.03.2012 High (red, Castle, Valeska, Crag Hack) def Dima Surmay (blue, Rampart, Mephala, Mephala) Jebus Cross 144

The game started quite quickly. We agreed to switch colors after each restart. Dima started with red. On turn 111, he restarted, and, lo and behold, the game began on the second attempt.

111 The start wasn't great. The second hero in the Necromancer Castle has slow troops, so all the purchased heroes will have to be given Pikemen. The only good thing is that the Necromancer brings in money. After buying two heroes and giving them each a Pikeman, they run away. He goes to the tavern for the next hero, and there, miraculously, Crag is waiting. He is bought and runs off, and then, again, success. Crag spotted a Portal of Glory somewhere behind a mountain... Valeska started clearing the Crypts with all her troops. There isn't much money, and there are only 5 heroes.
112 The money issue is resolved at this stage. All heroes are bought, they run around, scout, and collect... Valeska clears the Crypts (already 2). While the others collect and learn about the passage to the Portal, Crag decided not to waste time in the Crypts; there isn't much experience, but the days are passing, so he runs around the Castle, visiting the Stones of Knowledge and all the stat-boosting locations.
113 A Conservation and a Utopia are spotted near the Castle.
114 A second Utopia is spotted, about three steps from the Castle.
115 The path to the Portal of Glory is found. In the Castle, there was an opportunity to build one building that wouldn't interfere with building Angels in the first week. Fearing that Crag wouldn't make it in time, Stables were built. Crag learns magic. Without entering into any battles, he reaches level 3: 6-1-3-1. He runs to the Portal. Valeska starts the return journey to pass the troops along the chain.
116-117 Angels are built in the Castle, bought, and, together with Valeska's troops (27 Archers, 8 Swordsmen, and some Pikemen), they are given to Crag. The Portal is taken; fortunately, the Slow spell was used, and the morale of the Angels didn't drop on the first turn. Crag goes further.
121 There isn't enough money for everything, so only two Angels are bought from the Castle, and they go further. They are passed along the chain to Crag. He destroys everything in his path. He finds a Naga Bank with 10,000 gold.
122 Two Hives are spotted nearby, and the path to the Conservation. An Angel is bought in the Portal, and everything is given to Valeska. Valeska heads towards the Hives. Crag heads towards the Conservation.
123 Valeska takes the Hives (+12 Vipers). Crag spots a Pandora's Box with 20-49 Basilisks.
124-125 Crag clears everything near the Conservation and raises his stats. The Pandora's Box turned out to be empty. Apparently, he didn't have enough Wisdom. With one Angel, he positions himself near the Conservation.
126 The Conservation is destroyed (maximum level). Losses: 2 Vipers and some meat. 9 Angels. Crag gives the troops to the chain, and he himself is killed by the defense of the Utopia. He is bought back in the Castle and runs to the Arena; +2 to Attack won't hurt, plus the Pandora's Box is spotted. A hero from the chain takes the minimum-level Conservation along the way. 10 Angels. In the Castle, Archangels are built.
127 The Angels and 1 Archangel take the Pandora's Box; I don't remember what was inside, the troops are given to the hero from the chain.
131 Crag is far from the Castle. He is killed again. He stands in the Castle, replenishing his mana. He decides what to do next: go to the Treasury or clear his Utopias. Four of them are spotted, plus one important thing: a Sphere of Vulnerability is spotted. Before a possible encounter with the opponent's Golden Dragons, this is a strategic artifact. Valeska is sent there, and the chain begins to be built.
132 He decides to postpone the Treasury and take his Utopias. Crag, with two Archangels, positions himself near the first one.
133 All resources are sold. 12 more Archangels are brought to Crag, and he destroys the Utopia. He was incredibly lucky. He found a Chalice with +5 Magic, a Shield with +4 to everything, and a Sphere of Vulnerability. Valeska no longer needs the Sphere. The chain returns.
134-137 Crag takes the other three Utopias, and the chain takes another Conservation with three Angels. Crag goes to the Treasury, where he clears another Utopia. Crag has a red Orb of Inhibition. He has Angel Wings, a Dimension Door, and a Portal. He has almost no magic. Since Crag is one flight away from the Castle, he decides to return him to replenish his mana and build Stables.
141-143 The Treasury is cleared. The opponent's hero is killed.
144 The spotted Castle is taken by Mephala, the opponent's hero. Dimension Door, and here is the finale. Crag: 41-28-38-26. Mephala's stats are about one and a half times lower. 20 Archangels and 2 Angels of Crag attack the Castle with Mephala; just in case, he is wearing the red Orb of Inhibition.
Victory.
Thank you for the game.
