At my native respawn I found nothing special; in the first week I broke through 2 secondary zones, one was a swamp (I immediately left from there after capturing the castle), and the other turned out to have my native secondary. The 2nd week started vigorously; in the first few days I built dwellings for unicorns and dendroids, and in the middle of the week I went into the treasure zone. Unfortunately, not very successfully — there were no Dragon Fly Hives nearby; I took 3-4 useful artifacts and got defeated. On the 3rd week I break through another secondary zone, and the opponent is not there either, and it's a long way to him and not on the road (I didn't want to break through the GO from Sorceress without tactics). On the 3rd and 4th week I clear 2 more treasure zones, take 3 Dragon Utopias and get the Wizard's Hat. On the 5th week I fully buy out from 2 castles, and break through to the opponent through the secondary zone. The final battle is in his castle, with an advantage in troops. Thanks for the game!

Confirmed, thanks for the game

.

I confirm!
It was a tough game, with blocks everywhere... I finally broke through, and the game started around turn 116... around turn 124, I destroyed 115 Graveyard Liches, losing 2 Pegasi, and stormed into the treasure room... I grabbed the maximum Utopia, leaving a lot of enemies there... Maretti had a better position, and I didn't get anything good... I cleared out what I could and then attacked him... there was still a maximum Utopia with some trash and a box with 8 Bears... I killed them in the castle and in the treasure room, getting 14 kills... I didn't have time to upgrade... I collected everything for the Cursed Armor and had a red orb... the enemy hero didn't have attack or defense, but his stats were 12 points higher, but the damage from the army and the cannon was unreal... thanks for the game!!!

The respawn was simply a fairy tale — plenty of windmills, gardens, an external dwelling of Elves, Centaurs, and Dwarves. During the first week I cleared the respawn, captured the external dwellings, and took a couple of crypts. The second week was much the same — I built everything except level 7 units and the Castle in my town. On day 132 I grabbed the Boots and took the maximum number of Dragon Fly Hives. Then I continued up the road, scouted a Dragon Utopia, and managed to seize another couple of crypts, a Manticore Lair, and capture a few decent artifacts by the end of the week. On day 142 I took another crypt and a Dragon Fly Hive for 8. On day 143 I scouted another Dragon Utopia and a mini Griffin Conservatory. On day 144 I captured both the Griffin Conservatory and the Dragon Utopia — the loot was underwhelming (only a Sword and a Necklace from the useful items), which was disappointing... But I cleared them without losses among the Elves and all the key units I was counting on.) I decided to go for the second Dragon Utopia and took it by day 146 — the loot was even worse than the first (only a Helm from the useful stuff). My hero leveled up poorly — Expert Earth Magic was already available for a long time, but I never learned Slow, even after building a level 5 mage guild; I couldn't learn the spell because Wisdom wasn't offered((( total BS basically( After that I bought everything and jumped into a portal, spotted the opponent's secondary hero, captured it, then continued along the road and into another portal, reaching the opponent's capital. I attacked — the battle was tough for me, with plenty of mana but no decent spells, and I also made some blunders, but I won) The losses could have been much smaller)
Thanks for the game!)

It happened. The game progressed evenly, but many technical issues arose on my side. So, when on turn 213, the opponent takes a second town and places a unit, which the game glitches and places it in the wrong spot, and I, remembering the previous crash when checking the opponent's turn and knowing how the opponent would react, don't check it, and I can't use a hero from the graveyard to defend the base for a split attack:( and the opponent doesn't pay attention to the heroes in the chain and positions himself in the portal to the main town, so the troops aren't combined, and 22 nagas don't participate in the battle...
Thanks for the time.

111 Necromancer in the Dungeon. Clavius arrives with the Necromancy amulet, there's a scouting view, the respawn point is poor, but all 3 guards are vulnerable (golems, water elementals, swordsmen), I take out the golems, and there are beholders((, I get 3 Necromancy, and continue playing.
112, 113 I'm stuck at the respawn point, gathering skeletons, looking for haste (guild, scrolls, altars), but I don't find any, and approach the swordsmen.
114 I place liches, clear the dungeon, exit into the snow, take the castle, 125 skeletons
115 I'm just starting to feel like I'm getting the hang of the heroes, and then I get a message that I lost. Thanks for the game!

Pure truth.

At 144 I'm taking the Dragon Utopia; the loot was weak (only the sword and necklace from what I needed), disappointing... I decide to go for a second Dragon Utopia and take it by 146, the loot was even worse than in the first one (only the helmet from what I needed)
Thanks for the game!)

And how many Black Dragons were those Dragon Utopias, maybe they were just Minimals?

And how many Black Dragons were in the Dragon Utopia, maybe they were just Minimals?

2 in the first one, and 1 in the second

In the first one, there are 2, and in the second one, there is 1.

Well, then I'll give you some awesome art.

23.06.2012 hunter98(blue, Castle, Rion, Gundula) def GoedenDag(red, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor) 8mm6 142
start was normal, good respawn, but I never cleared it...
111 main Gundula, start without archers, but found their external dwelling, pleased there's a stable
112 with zero-level Rion I take out 90+ spearmen with a flail +4, lost only 7 spearmen and a few Troglodytes
117 nearly 20 Hell Hounds drop for a Pandora's Box
121 this Pandora's Box has 5k gold, just what I needed, now I can buy up, I upgrade Monks
122 leveling Gundula on crossing obstacles
123 90 Mummies drop for a Dragon Fly Hive, I lost only 32 spears, 2 Knights, and 1 Fanatic with a tent, the result was acceptable, but I have nothing to take the Dragon Fly Hive with (50-99)
126 I eliminate the green Necromancer, he placed 2000 and +10% Necromancy, but I don't have a single Necromancer, which was very disappointing))
133 I break the Dragon Fly Hive, it turned out to have 8 Wyverns, I send Mephala to break the Dragon Fly Hive in the treasure zone
that Dragon Fly Hive also turned out to have 8 Wyverns, but I leave from there with a smaller army, the guardians wore me down
136 FB with purple, he turned out to be the most dangerous here, Tirax has stats 11 7 3 5, Expert Tactics and Expert Offense, further I don't know (very skilled for a computer) I killed his entire army, but he got lucky and managed to escape on a pair of Hobgoblins, I almost raged)))
141 I take purple's main, also a Dragon Fly Hive at the respawn, with 8 Wyverns and I lose about 40 shooters and 6 Crusaders on all that, in the main there's a Capitol and Bears, the growth is mine, I make plans on how to destroy pink, he's close and the castle is poorly guarded
142 news of surrender arrives, the AI turned out to be too cunning in this game and caught my opponent off guard...
Thanks for the game, too bad we didn't finish!

Thank you for the game.

23.06.2012 Juristis (red, Stronghold, Crag Hack, Gundula) def Scorpiona (blue, Necro, Galtran, Galtran) Jebus Cross 132
Spent 112 resources, since nothing was found except goblin external dwellings. Then we started.
111 - branched out into 8 heroes. Near the town an external dwelling of birds behind a big stack of greater basilisks, there's a Cape of Velocity for 10-19 greater manticores, a Griffin Conservatory behind dwarves, an external dwelling of goblins. Overall, the layout is not bad. Upgraded the goblins, Crag Hack camps on a mini-Dwarf Cottage.
112 - built wolves, took the Dwarf Cottage. One road was blocked by a stack of vampires behind a hive, went along the second, broke through dwarves for the Griffin Conservatory and 15 treefolk for some quest artifact. I also revealed another Dragon Fly Hive + Pandora's Box behind a horde of medusas. But Crag Hack gets Scouting-Leadership at level 3... Not good.
113 - Upgraded the wolves. Crag Hack was offered Air Magic, took it. But Gundula, who broke through a stack of mummies near the town, immediately gets Logistics. On the third road is a stable, so I send the newly minted mama hero there.
114 - Unexpected find. Discovered an external dwelling of bears + Griffin Conservatory + Mace of the Sun 4 behind 20+gr ogres. A marketplace nearby. Also scouted the GO, there are even 2 paths to it, GO champions on both sides. Nice. Crag Hack, for luck, dropped by a witch hut and gets Eagle Eye. Everything's clear) Birds in the town.
115 - Crag Hack took a secondary swamp hero, revealed an Observation Tent and 2 more Griffin Conservatories. One is close, but the other is deep in the respawn area. 4 Griffin Conservatories total. Also an external dwelling of birds is revealed near the GO.
I move Gundula to main, taking the nearest bird external dwelling. Then the fight with the ogres, there are 22 of them. Could have fought better, lost 16 wolves and goblins. Without wolves it's scary to go into the bear external dwelling. Both checked Conservatories are tier 3-4.
116 - check the third Conservatory, minimum. I make my first strange move, running to it with Gundula, while Crag Hack goes to the bear external dwelling. In short, I swap them, unclear why. Meanwhile I set up a chain to the 2nd bird external dwelling. Heh... Citadel at home.
117 - Gundula takes a Pandora's Box for 5k experience, on the second try I take Air Magic for her too. Then a mini-Conservatory, and I transfer the army to Crag Hack. And here comes the first disappointment, I had planned the chain without an angel of penalty. :fp: Crag Hack doesn't reach the external dwelling. I fight without the angel, my bear survived with 15 hp. And here's a double :fp:! I somehow built a chain to the 2nd bird external dwelling through an empty spot, meaning the army was supposed to be taken from Crag Hack by the Holy Ghost, apparently... I had a strong urge to hit myself over the head with the table. Castle at home.
121 - upgrade birds, Gundula breaks a tier-3 Conservatory, lost a bird. Then I finally transfer the army to take the second bird external dwelling, and manage to lose another bird there. Gundula got Pathfinding and Tactics. Found gloves in a cart.
122 - Set up very crooked chains. Built a Mage Guild at home, got Haste.
123 - tier-3 Conservatory with Crag Hack, max- Dragon Fly Hive with Lacus, they eat the bear. Gundula takes a Pandora's Box for a full level 3 and a mini- Dragon Fly Hive behind the medusas, then a tier-3 Naga Bank and a Cape of Velocity.
124 - Fiur takes a mini- Dragon Fly Hive. The GO can only be broken on day 125, and not at the start of the turn, so I decided to break Dragon Utopias in main and exit on day 131. Gundula with 7 angels camps at home.
125 - 2 more Dragon Fly Hives with scout heroes, total 32 dragon flies. Not enough money to upgrade the bears, so I go into the Dragon Utopia with only angels + flies. Possibly a wrong decision, but I got scared for the bears and birds. Dragon Utopia is tier-3, wyverns suffer Antimagic in round 1. -4 flies and 1 angel. Flies are trash, but the little angel is a pity. Expert Air Magic. Got Blackshard of the Dead Knight, Tome of Earth and Shield of the Dwarven Lords +12. Average. Upgraded bears, built Fort in the swamp.
126 - second Dragon Utopia, again tier-3, this time with upgraded bears. -4 birds and a drain. Gave Dragon Scale Armor, Boots of Speed 15% resistance and Collar of the King +3 to all. Piro takes a mini- Dragon Fly Hive behind the vampires.
127 - third Dragon Utopia, again tier-3! And this time I get top-tier stuff, Tome of Air Magic, Helm of Heavenly Enlightenment and Sandals of the Saint. Gundula TPs to main, and we run to the GO, camp at a Mana Well for double mana. Crag Hack goes to take the 4th Griffin Conservatory. Dragon Flies in the swamp, also took another swamp village.
131 - the Conservatory is just a mini, upgrade 36 dragon flies, and forget to transfer the birds and buy a bear from the external dwelling. Gundula, flying over the stable, attacks the GO, champions and wyverns, then the enemy's Solmyr, finally get Earth Magic! Decided not to reveal Dimension Door. In the center I see a Dragon Utopia and a Dragon Fly Hive, apparently eaten.
132 - the opponent is not visible. I bring the bear and birds, take her central Inferno, along the way also a prison with Daremyth (expert Pathfinding) and a mini- Dragon Fly Hive. Near the Inferno a Shield of the Dwarven Lords +4 to all, take it, kill another enemy scout hero. Tanya surrenders, since she has no mass magic and is inferior in stats and army.
Thanks for the game!

Thanks for the game!

And what a beautiful beginning it was!!!
on 112 Gosha eats a Pandora's Box for 10K experience for just under 45 griffins.
2 times I offered water [elemental] she refused, then they offer another Pandora for 5K experience — fire [elemental], in the end she ended up without mass magic...
At the respawn I was pleased by the presence of 6 Dragon Fly Hives.
By 117 I managed to run there but [caught] the nicks of the dragons, the capital with dragons, but in a fort.
121-123 gathered the Dragon Fly Hives, as luck would have it Gosha got the minis, while the [zero-level] scout mages got 2 max Dragon Fly Hives... but still they were taken easily.
124 I run into the treasure zone — 5 bone dragons, 32 wyverns, 200+ skeletons. The GO unicorns about 70 didn't cause any particular problems, but the dragons ate [my army].
125 lured greater manticores onto a Sword +5, I decided that a stack of 32 Wyverns + a Beholder from the dungeon and 25 Evil Eyes from a Pandora would be enough), but that was not the case... they ate half my Wyverns:smile16:
126-127 well I think now in the center I'll recoup... yeah right, a mini Dragon Fly Hive. A mini Dragon Utopia with some rubbish.
127 somehow I fended off wings behind the cows and ran to the 2nd central town. then I failed again))))) instead of grabbing a Shield +4 all I split off to the center, a dungeon for double mana (leaving the artifacts there) I wanted to take the home Dragon Utopia with convenient wings to reach it, it was also mini with a Necklace +3 all..
131 opponent moves into the center, cuts the chain for return to the treasure zone, and eats all the goodies.
No army, no magic either))) Stats are inferior

Thanks for the game!

15. 06.2012 Scorpiona(blue, Swamp, Vistan/ Gherwulf) def Twaryna (red, Castle, Valeska, Tant) 8mm6a 127

At the start of the week I freed 2 heroes from the prison, the starting army of these heroes was well healed, or else they would have been GG immediately. From the respawn there is one road to the transitional zone sands, along the road a block of portals leading into the center, but nothing to hit with.
117 in the capital Wyverns picked up + a basilisk reduction. Vistan and Gherwulf both at level 5 and starting Earth magic.
121-123 Vistan buys a spell book and clears the native respawn of Manticore+2+2 and the Griffin Conservatory (1)
Gherwulf was hanging around in the intermediate zone the whole time and took the Dragon Fly Hive +8 Wyverns.
124 Gherwulf (5-7-4-3) with no spell book, dives into the portal and spots the red scout…and I wasn't counting on the meeting yet.
125 after the scout checked and removed single-stack units from Wulf. Tant attacks.
Fireball on me is butter…then it turned into melee, Gherwulf held the hits well and fought back well.
Thanks for the game!

Confirmed. Gherwulf arrived just in time. A couple of steps short of taking the Griffin Conservatory, right next to the action. And it would have been impossible to take it earlier. Had to attack and waste it on Fireball with hardly any chance. Thanks for the game!

This time there was an FB, played average, pleased with the game.
111 have Luna, so I forgot the meaning of the word "rest" :D
112 captured an external dwelling of Fire Elementals and broke through to the Citadel's treasure zone, sent a scout hero there
113-122 farming resources, very little gold
123 fought Archmages for the armor +1 all and the upgrade structure (which I never visited)
124 fought 20+ Thunderbirds, for a Pandora's Box of 10k exp Luna got Earth and Log, repair after Luck or Catapult
127 captured an external dwelling of Angels, 22 Archangels for the Dungeon, but further on a horde of Storms, decided to wait and spend the night in the double mana on the Citadel's treasure zone
131 delivery of 2 Birds and fight 60 Storms without losses, then 30+ Gr. Dendroid Guards for an experience Pandora, Fire Wall rules as it should!
132 fought a Dragon Fly Hive behind the Archmages, it has 6 Wyverns, Thundermare with a Deemer 5th level, recalled home and rushed to take the Dragon Fly Hive, their guards were of course wow
134 under 50 Storms and a Dragon Fly Hive of 6 Wyverns, also fought the Dungeon guard
135 it turned out there were Boots, Cloak +2 Speed and a (mini) Dragon Fly Hive, my eyes lit up
136 Stable by Luna))
137 45 Genies with GS for the Dragon Fly Hive and Necromancer's Cloak, but almost lost an Angel, Dragon Fly Hive of 8 Wyverns
141 mini conflux with a scout hero, with the delivery almost lost a Bird, Fire Elementals endured, of course
142 two green heroes go eat grass
144 green's main comes under my command
145 mini conflux, Necklace +3/3
211 capture opponent's swamp Castle, almost nothing was recruited and there were 50 Snakes, free Gurni 5th level, strange that he wasn't taken before me
212 with scouting I want to catch up to the opponent, I'm standing at the Pandora's Box for Cerberi
213 in the Pandora 90 Gnolls and the opponent's main himself came under attack, in FB no chance, I have Lightning for 600 and a lot of meat, the opponent has almost nothing...
P.S. if I'm not mistaken the computer went wild again...
Thanks for the game!)
