Posts from "Newcomer-2012. Summer"

Or maybe in the next Novice tournament, we could introduce the following changes to the rules?

The tournament would be played with a 2-minute time limit. I see a positive side to this, as it might prevent experienced players from signing up for such a short time limit. But a novice would, I remember playing and it was fine...

GoedenDag is leaving our tournament. After good training, we look forward to seeing you in the next season;)

Round 3 starts

Group assignments are in post 3 of this thread. Each player in a group plays against each other.
The deadline for round 1 is 2 weeks, which means approximately 1 game per week. You can play in any order.
We will summarize the results of the second round on August 6.

The player in blue in the table chooses the Castle first. The red player chooses the color.
The group stage is played on the 2SM4d(3) template; players can choose a different template if they wish (recommended).
Good luck and have fun!

Regarding Group #2

According to the priority in case of a tie in points in the group:
a) Berger coefficient
b) Head-to-head result
c) Time of group play
d) Place in the seasonal ranking

All three players played their last game on 07/16/2012, so the ranking will be based on the rating. I have preliminarily summarized the results based on the spring rating, but Pit will calculate the rating for 07/22/2012 tomorrow, and the result may change.

Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems to me that Berger's coefficient is useless in a group of 3 players, or is it?

25.07.2012 m2d3 (blue, Necro, Aislin, Tamika) def Pyre (red, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) 2sm4d(3) 212
I chose all restarts, either due to blocks of birds of rock or other reasons. Eventually we started on slow roads. Which was very unfortunate, since I have a mage...
So here we go: In the tavern, Tamika appeared, and that was a claim for a main hero, since the probability of getting Logistics is significantly higher... On the very first day, I break through 12 Pit Lords with 3 griffins on the only road. I see 3 experience stones. The plan is this: maximize Necromancy on as many heroes as possible and actively farm skeletons. I understood that Kyrre in week 2, due to an unreal number of moves, would be much higher in tempo. Therefore, I tried to play very precisely, i.e., the minimum number of unnecessary movements. So, Tamika gets Logistics - :smile44: There it is, happiness. Aislin takes secondary skills dungeon. And even the fact that there is a well next to the castle does not outweigh the warrior. The respawn is veeeery small. But I see 2 Griffin Conservatories, there is a road to Inferno from the dungeon with 50-99 lizards. At the end of the week, Knights in the fort, since I left money for buying. I check the nearest Griffin Conservatory - it's 1. At the start of the second, I beat it. I check the second one - it's a throng without griffins. I decided not to take it. I decide to break through the wasteland from the underground from the main, hoping for another secondary. It carries me into the treasure zone. A mini Hive. A Pandora's Box for 10 experience (I think). And at the end of the week, I took the external dwelling of Knights with a sword +3, shield +3/+3. On day 131, Tamika breaks through home, the army goes back along the chain, and I break the Griffin Conservatory, it turned out to be a 3. Meanwhile, Kyrre ran out into the treasure zone to that external dwelling of Knights: 20 Wyverns, 4 Angels. No shooters visible. I think, phew... dodged that... I run along the road into the Inferno lands. On it, a corner of a Dragon Utopia is visible. I break through to it. Right next to it is a Griffin Conservatory. It turned out to be a 1 :( . I check the Dragon Utopia... maximum... I got scared... I have 100 non-upgraded skeletons and 100 upgraded, 5 Angels, 12 Horses. 11 10 Attack/Defense. Kyrre already has ~20. Nearby is a Pandora's Box for 5-10 Black Dragons. I beat them - 74 non-upgraded skeletons and -1 Angel... in the Pandora's Box are 15 Trolls... morale fell even lower.... I ATTACK THE DRAGON UTOPIA... I break it almost without serious losses, something like: one Angel, a couple of Horses, and 100 skeletons. Books of Air and Water. I realize there's nothing more to catch here; by the view of Air and Earth, I reveal the treasure zone above the dungeon. I run there, and there's a helmet +6 all. There it is, happiness. So, what to do next. Mass-produce skeletons or catch the opponent while I have an advantage in control? I reveal a concentration of his heroes in the neighboring territory from my Necromancer. I jump there... Valeska with 35 Elves and 4 Angels... I kill everyone (the opponent made a mistake and pressed wait with 2 Angels). Kyrre runs away... I can't catch up... there are 30+ Wyverns and 5-10 Horses. I run after her, take the opponent's secondary Necromancer. On day 211, Kyrre breaks the GO and sits in an empty castle. (the opponent didn't buy the growth at his place). And buys out 4 Horses, 6 Liches, and 13 Vampires. Second question: After him, or left to the Barbarian where a lot of future skeletons are visible. I decided to take the risk. 2600 movement points on an Angel. I see a stable along the road to the entrance to the underground to my main. View of Earth showed the correct direction. Fly. I fly. Stable. I fly. Dimension Door. I end up right at the entrance on the road and have the last movement points for 1 step into the portal :smile03: That's it, Kyrre is cornered and has nowhere to run, I know my main perfectly. Kyrre stays in the castle. I attack. There's a red ball (I had a chain of 700+). We fought for about an hour. But 500 skeletons eventually reached the Wyverns.
Thanks for the game!

first, they lost on level 115 with air units, which were quickly defeated, and then they went to the Archmages.

Sounds like some lame excuses... :smile42:

the probability of obtaining logistics is significantly higher

first, they lost on level 115 with air units that were being weakened
