09/13/2012 Maretti (red, Fortress, hack) def Gomunguls (blue, Fortress, yog, dessa) 114 on jebus

He suicided.

I confirm!
Everything was very good! I spent 3 days leveling up Dessa, built monsters, and went into their lair... in the first round, morale dropped :( - one of my creatures died... oh well, I kept fighting, killed 2, the 3rd was wounded... I had 7 archers, 9 spearmen, and a Rukh... the Rukh flew in, they killed it... the monster was destroying the cannon... 100 health remained on the cannon, and then morale dropped again... 22 HP remained on the monster... I hoped that the Rukh would survive, but it didn't work... I surrendered...
Thank you for the time)!

09/13/2012 Stryfe (red, Conflux, rnd, Erdamon, Erdamon) def Scorpiona (blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti), Jebus Cross, 126
We chose the map without any markings and started playing without restarts. I had a very good starting area - in the first week, I captured 3 dwellings of psychic elementals, 2 earth dwellings, 2 water dwellings, and 1 pixie dwelling, and also grabbed a Pandora's Box for 10k gold. I built firebirds in the Fortress. In the second week, I captured a stronghold with 5th level magic, guarded by hydras, located right next to the castle. I took 4 hives with 8+8+6+6 stats, 2 Pandora's Boxes with 30 ice elementals and 50 earth elementals, and 3 conservatories with 5 angels. Erdamon received earth and armor skills. Then, I broke through a double Guardian Angel formation with 25 spectral dragons and 28 red dragons. I found a Pandora's Box in the treasury with 10 combat unicorns and the next day, I met Shaka in the sands. He couldn't put up much resistance. GG WP :) !

14.09.2012 Maretti (blue, stronghold, hack) def ded_MazAi (red, dungeon, Shakti) 134 on jebus

Played poorly. Due to the distance of the conservatories and pandoras, Shakti took a long time to reach them. In theory, I could have gone to break ГО as early as 121-122. But I wanted to collect more goodies. There were about 5 clues (3 in week 1, 2 in week 2), but all small ones. And not close by. Took the dragon external dwelling on week 1.

On 126 I break through to the center, and the opponent has been wandering there for a long time. On 127 I attack Craig in the Castle. He had an explosion for 1.2k, I had one for 1k. But I only had enough mp for 1. (Did not expect strike magic from the opponent - hoped to end the game).

Week 3. Red grade (took 3 Dragon Utopia - only the sword +5all was useful, a pity).
Hoped that the opponent wouldn't find the red orb/cloak of renunciation (explosion 2.5k). But he had everything.
gg

P.S. It was a pleasure for me to play with Maretti. Thank you for the game.

I confirm. Had a nice map with earth book and 2 behemoth dwells. Made some skells with isra and from first tope i got 25% necro arts. After he attacked me and surrendered I controlled allmost all map and could have made a ton of skells if nessesary. Only bad luck came with Hacks skills, no earth or armor offered. Thanks for playing.

14.09.2012 AYMAN (red, Castle, Valeska, Crag Hack) def GoedenDag (blue, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor) 2sm4d(3), 137

We took rests + one on encounter. The distribution was crooked, ranged units not built. I broke through with a secondary hero to the grass, but couldn't take it due to a block in the form of hydras behind the beehive, no way around. In the end, I broke through to the metro without a road, took an external dwelling of demons there, at home an external dwelling of skeletons, cavalry at the Citadel.

On the second week, I took a secondary Inferno hero, zero gold, extremely long chains due to the crookedness and lack of roads. Somehow broke through to the treasure zone, took a Pandora's Box for experience there, broke a beehive of 9 max) didn't take it right away, because there was nothing to do it with; after breaking the Pandora's Box, I was left without any growth.

On the third week, I took a beehive of 12, then another of 4. I took a shield of 3 and a scout hero of the blues spotted half of the power. I caught him with Valeska. Trade in my favor. And towards the end of the week on day 137, the chain captured the blues' capital.

Thanks for the game !!!

Triple GO: Arch Devils (got heavily battered - they ate into the growth, almost all of them were killed by Wyverns - about 10 died from the shield, the Fire Ward seriously helped), Titans (they got slowed and ate a Wyvern), Dragons (they devoured the ballista and that was enough for them). Before the GO there was a Dragon Utopia (hoping for stats), but it turned out to be mini - and just one junk.
3 Week. I devour the center. The opponent decided not to fight - he retreated to his side (he only had 10 Archangels).

06.09.12 Ayauhteotl (Blue, Fortress, Bron, Tazar) def Sanin (Red, Tower, Tharosar, Yog) 8mm6a 125

At the start +1 health artifact, 5 basilisks, Tazar arrives. Only one road from the castle.
On 111 I take a crypt, pop a Dragon Fly Hive for 50+ golems and pile of Dragon Flies.
112-113 I take a pile and the max crypt. I enter a lookout, the right side of the respawn is behind mountains, the detour is inconvenient, both mines are
there.
114 Bron breaks through the zone guard, rides along the path. Tazar sets off to visit stat boosters. Scouts handle exploration
and resource gathering, mostly gold, wood, and ore.
115-117 Bron clears gloves +movement points and by 117 finally reaches the enemy castle (Necropolis). Empty. Tazar continues running
around stat boosters. Development was tough; every pile of wood was a joy, in the end I built levels 1-4 and 6 in the fort.
121 Tazar had just visited all available stat boosters in the respawn and was standing at the exit to the Necropolis castle zone. I hire troops,
transfer them to him, fight a couple of battles with them, they give Earth Magic. After that, the scouts take the troops and carry them to Bron, but don't deliver them (the
AI managed to cause trouble and its Ciele broke the chain), while Tazar prepares to visit stat boosters.
122-124 the AI is defeated, Bron hits a blockade which he didn't want to attack with a one-week army, and turned back.
Tazar with the combined army breaks through the entrance to the underground (scouts took an empty Citadel) and the portal guard. An artifact +1
speed for 50-99 pit fiends is visible.
125 Yog arrives, defeats the pit fiends, takes the artifact. I scout his army with a scout, attack with Tazar. The final battle is simply epic;
the opponent's conditions weren't great either.
Yog ~13-3-3-3, no mana, but with a ballista. 35 gremlins, 6 mages, 2 nagas.
Tazar ~3-10-5-4, no spell book, but with a first aid tent. 11 basilisks, 4 Wyverns, ~20 lizardmen, about 7 each of greater and not-greater Dragon Flies, and
a few basic Dragon Flies. I win thanks to a meat advantage. If the opponent hadn't lost so many troops on the pit fiends, everything could
have turned out differently.

16.09.12 Ayauhteotl (Red, Fortress, Bron) def Sanin (Blue, Tower, Nila) 8mm6a 223

A long and difficult game for me.
Quite a grim start, 1 road from the castle, plus a path off-road. Few troops, level 2 not built. Almost nothing interesting on the respawn.
But I see 3 AI Fortress in the tavern. Throughout the first week, Fiona with a small army rode along the road, once hit a blockade, then broke through a passage guarded by 50 greater gargoyles, leaving only basilisks. She never reached anything useful. Meanwhile, the other heroes broke through an off-road passage and found 3 Griffin Conservatories in the zone. By
117 I have levels 1-6 in the Citadel.
In the second week, I didn't want to take the Griffin Conservatories, they turned out to be 2+, and I had few troops. I split the army into 3 parts; eventually one
scout captures the AI's Rampart, Fiona reaches the AI's Fortress by the end of the week and captures it, it has levels 1-6 in the castle.
Bron takes a Conflux town. Bron leveled up well, getting Logistics and Earth Magic.
By 131 two Griffin Conservatories on a chain, +5 Angels. Then another Griffin Conservatory during the week, making 8 Angels. By the end of the week I capture
another Fortress. There was an attempt to take a third Fortress with Fiona, but due to a stupid mistake (forgetting to buy her a spell book) it
doesn't work, and -13 basilisks.
Around the captured castles I see another couple of Griffin Conservatories, but it's inconvenient to reach them without Town Portal. Nila already has high
stats in the tavern, I realize I need to catch up.
At the start of the fourth week I split up with Bron, bring up the army, take the only Dragon Utopia in visible range. It turned out to be mini,
gave useless artifacts. Bron's skills are developing perfectly, but without Town Portal it's bad. I go to the treasure zone, hoping to find
КЗ or a Pandora's Box with magic somewhere. In the treasure zone I clear Boots of Speed and Gloves of Speed, nice. And in a triple Dragon Utopia they give a Sword +5 all stats and a Red
Orb, which pleases me even more, as I'm very far behind in magic. All the Pandora's Boxes I clear give experience.
I start building guilds in the castles. And at the same time small skirmishes begin with the opponent using scouts.
The opponent tried to take one of my castles (an unupgraded Citadel) and scout the territory. In the end, the castle stayed with me,
but he scouted the surrounding area. By the end of the week Fiona attacks the last AI Fortress castle again and now takes it.
I have all Fortress towns. I finish building the level 4 guild in Rampart, no Town Portal. So I build the guild in Conflux — and it finally appears.
Bron immediately splits there, has quite a lot of mana, and the game becomes much more enjoyable. Finally I manage to unite the army.
I clear 2 artifacts giving +1 speed in battle and +2.
But in stats Nila is still far ahead, and besides, it's Nila.
I decide that with 4 Fortress towns, time is on my side, and there's still stuff to do, so I go collect the Griffin Conservatories around the castles, I see
another Dragon Utopia. I take it — a triple — and it gives nothing useful. Although the gold is very welcome. I start building Angels in the Castle
to upgrade them. There are already 16 of them from the Griffin Conservatories. Meanwhile, the scout war for the castle and reconnaissance continues. I don't give
it up, which a bit later decided the outcome of the game. By 222 my scouts managed to ride further towards the opponent's territory. The opponent on his
turn killed them, but I see Nila and another hero nearby; the second hero has 100+ pit fiends. Either he didn't manage to transfer them to Nila,
or she was still building up. I hope that with Expert Logistics, 2 movement point artifacts and a stable, I'll reach them. I jump into the Citadel with Bron,
and indeed I reach them on my last movement points. ~130 pit fiends on the scout are easily and quickly killed, then I attack Nila.
Bron ~10-20-10-10 13 hydras, 16 angels, 80 basilisks, 60 greater basilisks, 50 greater Wyverns and 100+ Dragon Flies.
Nila ~20-20-20-20, 14 devils, 4 titans and 11 angels. I win thanks to a mountain of meat and the Red Orb. Plus the speed
artifacts helped.

Thanks for the games.

06.09.12 Ayauhteotl (Blue, Fortress, Bron, Tazar) def Sanin (Red, Tower, Tharosar, Yog) 8mm6a 125

There was an external dwelling of genies and an external dwelling of gremlins. On the first week, I took Flax and got minus 2 genies and 50 gremlins from the arrows. All was, nevertheless, not bad: I found a chain +4 and a cloak +2/+2. Indeed, without attacking the demons, everything could have turned out differently in the final battle.

16.09.12 Ayauhteotl (Red, Fortress, Bron) def Sanin (Blue, Tower, Nila) 8mm6a 223

I don't even want to describe it, the game went under the motto "fail after fail". Having a rather rich respawn and three Griffin Conservatories along the road, I unforgivably lost too many troops in the conservatories and on their guards. On the third week, I entered a max-level Dragon Utopia, where I lost everything, ending up with 4 angels.
The Inferno computer had an external dwelling of devils, which I also took on the third week, and I placed the devils in the castle at the same time... The main fail was capturing the Conflux, where the built mage guild has Town Portal, while I don't have Wisdom (but I do have Intelligence and Water Magic, yes). If we had played for another couple of days, I would have managed to fully assemble the Sniper's Bow and the Armor of the Damned, and to this I would need the red orb (which, as it turned out, the opponent already had), and with devils and titans in the army, it would have been very interesting to play the final with those sets. It was also largely decided by Nila's lack of Logistics, and I somehow completely did not expect Bron without Dimension Door to reach that cell where I had positioned myself.

18.09.12 BlooDy)DriVeR(Red, Dungeon, Shakti) def KOLONIZATOR(Blue, Castle, Kaitlin, Ufretin) 2sm4d(3) 135
Excellent respawn with an external dwelling of Manticores, 2 Dragon Fly Hives, a Griffin Conservatory and [утопой]. On the first week, Manticores in the fort + portal. On the second week, I clear the treasure zone, not having time to buy Shakti a spellbook, and as a result, just a fail - out of 3 Pandora's boxes taken behind dense guards, 2 turn out to be empty... (and I had Wisdom). On the 3rd week, I take 2 Griffin Conservatories 3+2, the opponent comes to me, and in the Final Battle, I have an advantage in troops and magic, there's Mass Bloodlust and Curse.
Thanks for the game!

09/18/12 BlooDy)DriVeR (Red, Dungeon, Shakti) def KOLONIZATOR (Blue, Castle, Katelyn, Ufretin) 2sm4d(3) 135

Confirmed!

In principle, the setup was decent (griffon and archer dwellings), but the heroes that appeared weren't ideal, like Shakti. I had to take Ufretin.
The final battle showed that the opponent had a better grasp of the situation and chose the right strategy. Also, Shakti was twice the level of Ufretin and had several artifacts that boosted his defense. And there's no need to talk about the army – 26 Wyverns, and just as many Manticores.

Thanks for the game! :smile20: I gained a lot of experience!

18.09.2012 Heroin (red, swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def ded MazAi (blue, Inferno, Calh, Crag) 2sm4d(3), 231

We started with three opponent resets. Tazar came with Gnolls and 4 Serpent Flies, with Verdish in the tavern with only Gnolls. Nobody had any Lizardmen, and there were none in the Castle either. Nearby was a Crypt and the edge of a Dragon Utopia was visible — I decided to check what would happen on day two, even though my army consisted of 9 Lizardmen and 40 Gnolls, plus 22 Skeletons(. On day 1 turn 3, I bought Serpent Flies and Basilisks at the Castle and broke a pre-max Crypt with an artifact +1 to Speed. Next to Tazar, who was fleeing upwards for a secondary, were Speed Boots behind Griffins — also taken on day 1 turn 3. A Gnoll horde was scouted. Every unit was worth its weight in gold because the army was minimal.
We saved the Gnoll hordes; on day 1 turn 4 I caught them from the first one and took another along the way to the secondaries + a lot of gold was scouted behind small foot patrols, which the scout heroes broke easily while Tazar was hitting the Barbarian secondary, which turned out to be behind a Wizard block guarding a Helm +5 Knowledge. But despite that, I managed to collect gold for a level 10 cap, also from behind small guards, and quite a bit was taken in general. So on day 1 turn 7, tier 1-6 in the Castle + Tazar had Boots and Speed artifacts (from the Skeleton :smile02: ), but there were 2 failures: a blocked Barbarian, and Tazar got the shooting skill(.
On day two, I killed the guard of the second secondary, also a Barbarian. No Dragon Fly Hives, no Griffin Conservatories — this really slowed down taking Dragon Utopias, since I barely had an army. Tazar flew on a Greater Serpent Fly + Stables and artifacts, which was very pleasing. On day 2 turn 4, I broke the guard of the treasure zone north of the Barbarian, hoping for Dragon Fly Hives, but everything there was behind serious guards. A treasure zone was scouted a bit lower than the same Barbarian. Tazar got there on day 2 turn 6 and took the first mini Dragon Fly Hive for 20+ Stone Golems, and another one was revealed behind Crusaders — I took it, and it turned out to be for 8 Wyverns — not bad). I built Hydras in the Castle. On day 3 turn 3, I caught a growth and took another Dragon Fly Hive for 8 Wyverns; I already had 30. Tazar got Air Magic, but neither in the Barbarian nor in the native Mage Guild was there Haste(, a scout hero who was running around the blocked Barbarian found a scroll and saved me. In short, I decided to run in the treasure zone, and on day 3 turn 7 I planned to break into a town, replenish mana, take the needed scroll, and head for the Dragon Utopias. That's what happened + a couple of Dragon Utopias were scouted and another Dragon Fly Hive in the treasure zone was taken, and I picked up the Shackles of War. On day 4 turn 2, I break the first max Dragon Utopia (gives Feathered Wings, Helm and Breastplate of Titans, and Sword of Judgment). On day 4 turn 3, the second pre-max Dragon Utopia falls (Sword of Titans, Sandals +2, Shield +4, Legionnaire's Bracers), and Tazar breaks into a Barbarian behind two more Dragon Utopias. On day 4 turn 5, another Dragon Utopia fell (junk), only the gold was nice. On day 4 turn 6, a mini Dragon Utopia(, but it gave KЗ. Implosion for 3800 HP with the Sphere, and 300 mana with Intelligence — I decide to go to the opponent, though initially I was thinking about breaking into the Barbarian and to the upper treasure zone. On day 4 turn 7, I stood in front of the opponent's town. His secondary Dungeon was visible. I took the castles, but Crag wasn't there. In short, I took everything I could from the blue player. I started searching for him, and he found himself at a blocked Barbarian. I caught him there, but there was a surprise).
Tazar 18 28 28 846 (9 Greater Roc, 7 Greater Hydra, 19 Greater Minotaur, 31 Greater Wyvern, 113 Greater Lizardman, 4 Devils, 16 Greater Serpent Fly) Crag 21 22 10 109 (7 Devils, 42 Wyverns, 8 Efreet, 15 Wizards, 195 Demons, 7 Greater Pit Fiend, 44 Imps). I try to cast Implosion — CLOAK OF ABANDONMENT and ELIXIR assembled(. The bolt was for 750 HP, in short, the situation clearly turned against me when it turned out the opponent had Mass Haste and Mass Slow. I lost all my Wyverns, all my Minotaurs with the Devils, and only took all his Pit Fiends, 20 Wyverns, 3 Devils, 5 Efreet, and a few Imps + caught about 10 Demons. Then a buyback + there were two Griffin Conservatories, a treasure zone, and I had to somehow catch Crag (who at that point was without control) with the fast, mobile Tazar.
First, I went to the upper treasure zone, caught a Dragon Utopia and a couple of Dragon Fly Hives there, and went to the castle right under Crag's nose. I escaped to a blocked Barbarian, took a mini Griffin Conservatory(, and decided to set a trap for Crag, who could be nearby, hoping he would attack — the bolt and buyback would let me take at least 10 Demons. But then everything changed. First, a scout hero in this same treasure zone, which Crag didn't kill when he was one move short of reaching Tazar, revealed a Sphere of Air — I decided to grab it and then go for the second Griffin Conservatory. But the opponent, seeing that I was heading where he was, and Crag turned out to be in the pocket of the treasure zone with 4 Devils, 22 Wyverns, and 183 Demons, already without mana, without the Chain — in short, without a chance, since I had the Shackles of War — GIVES UP. Although there is always a chance, I could have messed up there too — my head was already square after playing 12 hours straight.
Thanks for the game!
