06.06.2012 Exit (red, Stronghold, Crag, Crag) def ProVe (blue, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) 2sm4d(3) 236

We picked all the rests, the spawn was bad for both, there were no crystals for bears at all; on the first week I only built birds in the castle. On the second week I captured a ramp on the adjacent zone (which the opponent had already captured earlier), scraped together enough for bears, used them to clear out the medusa and naga spawns in the area, and painted the external dwelling of green dragons next to the captured ramp. The opponent didn't show up, so I went into the sand treasure zone, where I found wings, a body +4, a helmet +5, a shield +6, and a level 10 calt with expert logistics. I continued clearing the treasure zone, and then Kyrre suddenly runs out and heads at full speed towards my capital. I couldn't split with Crag and transfer the resources because he had gone far into the sands, and a chain of donkeys (with the latest growth) separated from him by cliffs, so I decided to give up the castle and flew Crag directly, also clearing a couple of hives along the way, luckily my army was stronger. The opponent captures the castle when Crag had 2 days of travel left to reach it. On the next turn, Kyrre went to the stat boost structures and ended up within Crag's reach, who was standing in the sand treasure zone (apparently, the opponent didn't expect me to have wings). I attack: Crag (20, 14, 11, 10) with 22 Wyverns, 7 Angels, 20 Thunderbirds, 5 Bears, and 20 Crushers from a Pandora's Box taken on the same turn against Kyrre (13, 15, 6, 4) with 23 Pegasi, 25 Dendroids, 17 War Unicorns, 1 Green Dragon, and for some reason only 5 Grands). I lose 8 Crushers, 2 Birds, 4 Bears, and 1 Angel; the opponent flees. On the next week, I buy the growth, submit to the hut for a stoic watchman, for which I receive 5 Angels, break through the GO between my zone and the opponent's zone (29 gorged Bears), go to his respawn and capture his capital.
Thanks for the game!

06.05.12 darkello (blue, necropolis, eislina, Korbak) def Bloodrak (red, elfi, Kir, kir) 8xm12, 125
Unrealistically terrible respawn (Dungeon), I immediately start exercising patience... 3 chests on the map and all three for 1000, only 2 or 3 piles of gold total (this affected my building later on), one road and thankfully there was a large number of blocks made of weak creatures in good quantity on that road, as a result I got stuck at the second castle. There were no more roads... closer to the week I started looking for a way out of the Dungeon, and I couldn't build Knights in the first week due to a miscalculation with money ;(
I found the exit from the Dungeon 3 hexes to the right of the castle, on the way there I also saw an external dwelling of knights, guarded by upgraded Medusas 20-49, I rushed towards them with 42 mana, opponent surrenders on turn 125, to my luck. As it turned out, I shouldn't have flown my main hero into a one-way portal, I ended up in a terrible swamp
p.s.
I managed to massively fail at building chains

05/06/12 Caprain (blue, Swamp, Vistan, Ciel) def SERbGA (red, Inferno, Rashka, Rashka) 2sm4d (3), 133
The opponent attacked my base, spread out his troops, and was defeated in parts.
Thanks for the game!

04.05.2012 Sevensan (Red, Castle, Valeska, Kir) Def HellLight (Blue, Necr, Gosha) SoD Jebuss 142

Wanted to play Necr, but my opponent took it.

111 Start with 6 heroes. Right away, a Block of 20+ Grands cuts off half the respawn (ГО + secondary). I take the external dwelling of Archers. There's also an external dwelling of Angels under the Castle, an external dwelling of Swordsmen, the Griffin Conservatory. No more rests.
117 I only found a way around the Block on 117 by off-road. The external dwelling of Angels is flagged, home Angels in the Citadel.
121-125 Was clearing the Respawn, looking for ГО =) It generated all the way in the very corner of the map, and the exit is not to the Center, but to the Center from the very edge )) Thought it was the end. Would have been if the opponent hadn't doubled so much at home.
125 Opened a couple of Conservatory-hives, for 11 Angels and 34 Ducks. By luck, I take the Dragon Utopia, upgrade the Archangels, and stand at the ГО.
126 Another 2 hives. 44 Ducks 11 Archangels take apart the ГО and I don't have time to reach it with my main hero while doing the small stuff =(
127 On the way, I also break through five Inferno ГО, and 100 upgraded cows... And I stop one step from the opponent with 0 Mana. He doesn't check me, There are 16 Angels and something else. He turns around.

After that, I took the center Castle, by luck from the prison I saw what he was doing. Slowly took over the whole map. In the FB he assembled mega-cloak + sphere of inhibition. But his stats were 2 times lower, and 120 Ducks sealed it.

05.05.2012 Sevensan (Blue, Fortress, Tazar) Def HellLight (Red, Barbarian, Crag Hack) SoD Jebuss 127

111 It's already become a tradition in games with him, that I have a Block on half the respawn. This time it was 20+ Zealots.
117 Was clearing 5 Pandora's Boxes. In the end, by the end of the week I had 2 Hydras + 10 upgraded Basiliks + 4 Ducks. And Hydras in the Castle with an external dwelling. Severe lack of gold.

121 Pandora's Box 10k experience
122 Max Conservatory, with 6 Hydras. Went to the ГО
124 I break the ГО with 6 Hydras + 4 Angels with oils. 70 upgraded Scorpicores. And I sit in my secondary at the ГО =)
125 Three Pandora's Boxes for experience, a hive. So that's 4 Angels, 12 Ducks I scout, see where the opponent's ГО is, run there.
126 The OP runs out, doesn't dare to attack - 0 mana. Even though there are 36 Ducks there. I take the relics, fight with Tazar for mana, but don't have time to buy back ((((
127 Crag Hack didn't get his speed up, with Logistics and Gloves he's 1 move short of reaching the luck hero with Power =) Well, next turn I attack with Tazar and win.

Thanks everyone for the interesting games !!!

06.05.2012 Sevensan (Red, Castle, Valeska - Sandro) Def Hermit (Blue, Tower, Solmyr) 8mm6a, SoD, 136

My opponent chose Tower.

111 External dwelling of archers + Stables. That's 35 Marksmen.
116 With 35 Marksmen and 6 Imps, andro I attack the upgraded Dwarves near the Dragon Fly Hive. There are 6 stacks of 12, and the Marksmen only killed 10. Wiped them all out =) Not upset, I keep playing.
117 Horses at the ford. Necro computer killed + 2 key villages taken. Opponent is visible from one side, but there's a block of 20+ Efreeti. The path to the other village goes through wasteland toward him. And, best of all, 3 external dwellings of Peasants! =)

121 I make 4 Champions and go to fight.
122 Got 300 Skeletons + 4 Horses. Punish the remaining Dwarves and take a minimal Dragon Fly Hive.
123 I transfer everything to Sandro, opens a Pandora's Box with 16 Unicorns and there.. 15 Vampire Lords! :smile20:
124 Dragon Fly Hive +4
125 Boots + Pandora's Box for 15k Experience. I switch to Valeska to break through the Efreeti. On my turn, my opponent passes the Angel, and is left with single Gargoyles.
126 With Vampires we hit the Efreeti and send him to the tavern. Then we kill the Angel with a scout hero. - 16 Dwarves, 3 Nagas, 5 Mages.
127 - 136 Solmyr ran around, and quite successfully, Hitting with Chain Lightning from a 4th Guild of Mages. But gradually the catapults retrained Death Wave, and then the money ran out. And on 136 the last 2 Golems died against the castle walls =)

Thanks everyone for interesting games !!!

05/08/2012 darkello (Red, Flax, Brissa, Brissa) Def artbocha (Blue, Castle, Valeska, Tiris) 8xm12, 225

1 week of Phoenixes, 2 Nymphs... reached the first one in the first week, the second one in the second week, took 3 Wyverns by the middle of the second week and went on a full-scale campaign through the Dungeon. Unfortunately, the opponent was already heavily engaged in the center and controlled a large number of Castles while I only had two... As a result, by turn 133, instead of two, I had about eight Castles. Around turn 141, I found a teleport to a city and built a Guild by the end of the week. My army was stronger than the opponent's. On turn 122-125, I caught the opponent due to the teleport to the city. I had 16 Phoenixes, ~90 Nymphs, ~29 Wyverns, ~16 Fire Elementals, ~3 Angels against 17 Efreet, 6 Nagas, 1 Knight, 30 Wyverns... I almost killed everything, but the opponent escaped and decided to harass me due to the large number of Castles. At first, he succeeded, but again, thanks to the strength of my army and, above all, the teleport to the city, I won. On turn 225, the opponent surrendered.
Sorry for the clumsy report, I'm very tired.

08.05.2012 Juristis (blue, Stronghold, Tyraxor, Tyraxor) Def Cryptonight (red, Castle, Valeska, Mephala) Balance 130%, 126

The balance was rich as never before, not a single treasure chest at the respawn, a couple of piles of gold. There is a Griffin Conservatory and stables. Gurni arrived with a ballista, Monere, Kyrre, under the castle there is a hut with Air magic, I visited immediately.
On 112 Monere took the native village and transferred troops to Tyraxor, who broke through with 30 wolves past hell hounds (-2 wolves from stupidity) and sat in the Rampart village.
113 - I hit 95 dwarves on the grass for a Pandora's box + crypt. -1 wolf, 6 goblins and a ballista. In the Pandora's box, 50 centaurs. We take 2 crypts, next turn a warrior's tomb guarded by vampires, there is an imba artifact, a spyglass.
115 - shield +4, Tyraxor expert Attack, Tactics, Air Magic.
I wondered what to build, bears in the Citadel or ogres in the Castle. I discovered there was no wood for ogres, decided on bears after all. Built a Prefecture, and realized the wood was lying right next to it. Oh well. On 117 with a trade I build bears.
Second week, Tyraxor was offered a Ballistics tent. I chose the second one. Built a Mage Guild in the Rampart, there is Haste, wonderful. Josephine took the third crypt, the last money structure I saw. Good thing there's at least 3k income.
123 - Griffin Conservatory third level by Tyraxor, in the Griffin Conservatory I foolishly blundered and lost all the orcs. Also 5 wolves, a bird and 35 centaurs were killed, for 3 angels it's acceptable.
125 - I hit a crowd of minotaurs and a hundred ghosts, go out to a necro fort, along the way a Pandora's box for 5k gold. I scouted Air, opponent seems far away. I leave 6 birds and 2 angels on Monere. Saved here.
126 - we continue, and Monere is attacked immediately, I instantly lose 4 birds, in response I lose 8 crossbowmen, having sped up the angel. I ransom. I don't reach Mephala's town.
FB - supply of goblins, ransom of Monere, we attack, luckily Mephala has no Tactics. FB in classic style, Tactics + mass Haste, -2 angels and 50 spearmen in the 1st round, in response an angel and a bear were killed, the opponent didn't use magic, was without a spell book. In the 2nd round the opponent surrenders. Thanks for the game!
