2.07.2012. Pit for LM (red, random Castle, random Tirith, Solmyr) def GoD (blue, random Stronghold, random Crag Hack, Eislinn), 2sm2c, 126.
There were no restarts, I generated noobishly — with Dungeon. We played by sc2tv rules, M, 200%.
I got Castle against Barbarian, seems fine. The road, however, was through woods in the beginning, so there was no gold for the first few days.
111 - built archers, one hero.
112 - bought Adela, cleared 2 treasure chests — but the second one had an artifact, not enough gold left for anything else. True, the artifact is mega useful — Necklace of Speed. I see 3 experience stones nearby, that's not bad.
113 - buy Rionland, no lumber, not enough for a Priest Guild, don't build anything.
114 - buy Calh. Through the portal I find myself in Dungeon, surprised. Well, okay, opp said we continue. I build a Citadel — no lumber.
115 - take a Barbarian town, buy Sonya there, she passes the army back, Calh clears a prison, there's Ingham with Expert Heal, with his help I get the troops to the mine and finally get some lumber. Build a Blacksmith.
116 - build Swordsmen. Tirith finds an external dwelling of Archers in a corner of the respawn, unguarded, thankfully. Buy Tanta to collect free stuff. Buy Loynis as a main hero, but Solmyr is found under him. Loynis stays sitting in the castle, since there are already 8 heroes.
117 - broke into my treasury, collect free stuff there, scout. Bought Solmyr and ran him over experience stones. Immediately got Intelligence. Build Griffins.
121 - Solmyr got Air Magic. Collect resources. Build Mages Guild level 1. Unfortunately, I have to build in the capital, the barbarian town is only level 3... So I can't upgrade the army, since I need to build urgently, because the passage to the opp is guarded by only fifty Water Elementals on the road.
122 - Solmyr visits the Stable. Redeem and combine the army. Build Mages Guild level 2.
123 - on her turn, Eislinn approaches the Water Elementals. Got a bit scared and didn't have time to move. But Solmyr managed to eat a box of 5k experience behind the Gogs and reached level 7.
124 - Eislinn ran into the treasury to level up on Ifrits. So I approach the Water Elementals, replenish mana. Need to attack before the opponent builds Mages Guild level 4. Plus he has Inferno and an external dwelling of Ifrits — who knows, he might get Armageddon too. Upgrade Archers, since Mages Guild level 4 will only be needed next turn. Cleared the Rib Cage.
125 - kill the Water Elementals, then — a horde of Earth Elementals for a pile of junk. Attack Eislinn — she only has one Ifrit, and I, unfortunately, have neither upgraded Griffins nor Lightning Bolt. They take down a few of my Archers and buy themselves out.
126 - Eislinn sits in her Inferno secondary town. I reach it and attack:
Solmyr (1, 1, 7, 6(76)), Expert Wisdom, Air Magic, Advanced Sorcery and Intelligence, 54 Master Archers, 61+1+1 Pikemen, 10 Swordsmen, 13 Griffins, +1 Speed; Eislinn (3, 4, 4, 7 (70)), Expert Necromancy, Wisdom, Advanced Air Magic, 5 Thunderbirds, 4 Ifrits, 45 Dire Wolves, 1+26 Hobgoblins, 60 Skeletons, 4 Orcs, only first two levels of magic.
Actually, not much you can do against Chain Lightning for 400+ in the second week, the battle was won without any trouble.
Thanks for the game.

03.06.12 Maretti (red, stronghold, hack) def God (blue, castle, valeska, mephala) at 134 on jeb

Broke 123 with full move. 124 I caught him with no mana and killed 4 angels before he surrendered. He played on a bit but was left no chance since I found some good topes in the desert. Hack rules. Thanks for playing.

Monere over Hack. Im shocked.

04.07.2012 Maretti (castle, caitlin, hack) def God (necro, galthran) 126 on jebus

Finally ended a game that we started many weeks ago. Got a nice side with an angel dwell and a couple of cons plus boots and gloves with crag hack.

Broke 122 with 10 angels and around 80 marksmen. Took a tope in the desert and 124 I could move the army back and upgrade to AAs. Same day I took a tope that gave earth book and red orb and I saw HH in the desert but decided to take a town and fill mana. Next day I could pick it up and get the last health ring for the health combo that was back in my area.

Unfortunatly he took HH the next day but his stats were only slighly higher than mine so i decided to attack. I had 5 green dragons, 10 crusaders and 8 wyvs aswell. He had 5 angels, 40 wyvs and close to 400 skell warriors and plus 2 to speed. The battle went well, he managed to kill 6 aas but not much else and I killed allmost all his army. After the battle i used tp back to the middle town.

Next day I took prison hero who reached his town in the middle. From there I sent a hero to scout and saw a scout with his main army. He allready had lots wyvs and throng skells. But I reached with hack and he gave up.

Thanks for playing.

Yegor Korobeynikov (blue, dang, shakti, shakri) def M2D3 (red, coflux, sail, sail) 131 8mm6a in short he dropped me 3 full stacks of Troglodytes and a scout hero with 30th so 40 39 38 and 33(+-)+14 Troglodytes that was 163 of them and then an external dwelling too. on 112 I killed 28 Minotaurs for a Pandora's Box because of an impediment I didn't see when I rushed in there the Pandora turned out to be not great 5k gold. in the end I destroyed a level 3 Griffin Conservatory on 122 a couple of beehives 2 max Naga Bank max Medusa Hovel I bought out on 131 and attacked the opponent. stats 5 7 4 5 (level 14 tactics attack defense (not full) earth pathfinding not full) 3 Angels 150 Troglodytes 15 Minotaurs 18 ducks 20 Medusas 35 Evil Eyes 33 Harpies 15 Minotaurs. against Syla level 10-11 stats higher magic 8 7 I remember and attack defense 4 5. army 3 birds 6 ducks 22 Storms and 3 Minotaurs and single Fairies. for magic I have 8 out of 50 she has 140 out of 70. for spells I have mass slow shield skin and haste on a single unit. also expert earth and fire. I have expert berserk and Armageddon with expert fire magic. after tactical setup I got distracted look what kind of glitch why does the opponent have no army I thought heroes were glitching. I moved the mouse around look I also have 11 ducks left 1 Angel and maybe 1 Minotaur and 40 Troglodytes and the rest small stuff there's 3 birds in 1 stack. And I positioned so that berserk wouldn't cripple me badly and so that the bird would hit the 2nd. in short I had a bracelet +3 +3 morale luck. and the ducks and Angel reached the bird Angel hit with luck for 170. and the ducks dealt 200-300 somewhere (-2) in total I understood that all hope was on morale now or luck and the ducks got morale TADAM -3 birds and victory. I was very surprised by Armaag I was afraid of him and bers essentially. good thing the opponent only bought 3 out of 6 birds otherwise my chances would have decreased...

Vigo (red, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) def kinger (blue, Tower, Torosar, Torosar) 2cm4d3 143
I fell for the minimal Griffin Conservatory and started playing. On the first map, due to lack of money, only Pegasi in the Citadel. On the second, I branched out with secondary heroes and built up. On the third, I snuck into the treasure zone, got books of Air and Fire there, shook out about forty Wyverns. On the fourth, I got caught in the enemy's attack with КЗ, had to bail, but considering the power in the secondary Castle - I have something to retaliate with :)
Thanks for an interesting game!

9.07.2012 Sanin (blue, Tower, Torosar, Gundula) def Pyre (red, Stronghold, Dessa, Dessa) 2sm4d(3) 142

Fast roads lead to two portals. I break through one of them, there's a native secondary town. Gundula is found in the tavern, the skill issue is resolved. I capture the secondary town, near it I find two Griffin Conservatories and an external dwelling of nagas. I left all of this for the second week. On the first week I built nagas in the Citadel and golems in the secondary town.
On the second week I continued working on the secondary town, took two medusa hatcheries, both double Griffin Conservatories, the external naga dwelling. Up from the secondary town I found another Griffin Conservatory. I also cleared a pandora's box for 10k experience, a crown +4 and a breastplate +5. In the capital I built the castle, in the secondary town - nagas.
I wanted to take the upper Griffin Conservatory with a scout hero, but didn't dare, because it was strong. It turned out to be a triple. There were also several money buildings there. I visited the library near the secondary town and prepared to move on.
On day 141 I have 7 angels and 27 nagas, Gundula has expert air, has tactics and logistics. I'm thinking about where to go: into the treasure zone or break through the ГО. Opponent surrenders, sparing me from these burdensome thoughts.

07/09/2012 Gomunguls(Red,Conflux,random,Erdamon,Moner)def CryptoNight(Blue,Necro,Clavius,Galtran)8mm6a,1.2.7
The start was good, lots of gold and heroes. On the first week, birds in the fort, external dwelling of earth elementals, and 3 fire elementals. Captured a Castle town from the computer, but lost everyone except the air elementals during the siege... On the second week, several cons [conservatories?] for 8 angels, a Dragon Fly Hive for 8... Attacked the opponent with all my strength when he came to me... The Fireball was powerful, I had less mana, but the 8 angels cut through well... In the end, 8 angels, 1 bird, and 29 crossbowmen remained...
Thanks for the game!!!

09.07.2012 artbocha (red, Citadel, Kreg-Solmír) def my_wild_desire (blue, Dungeon, Shakhti-Shakhti) 126 2sm4d(3)
at 113, I completely merged into the Griffin Conservatory, made a slight mis-placement; at 117, with Solmír, I took it and only managed to put down 1235 in the Citadel; by 131, I would have built the 4th guild, but the opponent conceded, thanks for the game
