22.09.2012 kinger (blue, Rampart, Ivor) def ~no1_knows_me~ (red, Dungeon, Shakti) 2sm4d(3) 127

Played on 4 minutes, with one restart on 111.
111 - scouted with 5 heroes, revealed a Dragon Fly Hive behind a horde of flies;
112 - scouted the opponent to my left, ГО - a crowd of devils and a horde of wizards;
113 - revealed a Griffin Conservatory behind a bunch of horned demons, took a secondary Inferno hero;
114-117 - cleared a rather poor spawn (not a single external dwelling), saw that I could break through to the opponent through an adjacent swamp, the Conservatory turned out to be a double; in Castle, horses in the Citadel;
121-122 - bought everything, took the gold mine behind a crowd of iron golems and marched through the stables toward the Conservatory;
123 - took the Conservatory with minor losses, just not enough time for the turn;
124 - took the Dragon Fly Hive with 8 ducks;
125 - opponent is already in the swamp, getting ready to go there;
126 - broke through into the swamp, almost reached the opponent's secondary hero;
127 - opponent surrenders (lost a stack of nagas), decided not to continue further.

Thanks for the game

Thanks for the game

The choice was limited - either the Griffin Conservatory (100-249) or Nagash's area (3-4), could have waited a day and eaten everything with growth, but the wife was "nudging" from the side to hurry up, so I ended up leaving Nagash's area (4) with only Manticores...
thx for the game

22.09.2012 Egor Korobeynikov (red, Conflux, Alkin) def Iamoverit (Blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Dees, Gunnarsson) Jebus, 135

We grew until no non-starts were left, two external dwellings of Manticores with shooter guards near the town spawned, the first was cleared around 111 with Shakti, the second around 113, as a result clearing the respawn was greatly simplified, but on the respawn besides Pandora's Boxes with 35 Evil Eyes and 15 Minotaurs there were only prisons with Dees (10) level (luckily he was leveled nicely — Attack, Logistics, Tactics) and later Gunnarsson (20) (Ballistics, Attack, Logistics, Archery) was found. But not a single Griffin Conservatory on the respawn and two medium Dragon Fly Hives, as a result a Dragon Utopia at 134 gave Wings and Shield, but that didn't solve anything — Egor turned out to have two external dwellings of Phoenixes — gg

112 with 22 air elementals killed everything with berserker using 9 necro horseys (30 water elementals)

on 117 cleared 2 external dwellings of birds (1st on 116, 2nd on 117)

on 121 went with 14 birds into one part of the spawn, 4 angels and 14 ducks into another
broke another 2 beehives and the Griffin Conservatory. on 123 took the 3rd near the castle with shoha, while main went to the ГО
on 124-5 broke the ГО (don't remember)

on 127 was already in the center with stats around 30 30 27 24, something like that.

on 133 finished eating part of the center and on 135 attacked the opponent. the situation was bad

Thanks for the game.

23.09.2012 kinger (red, Rampart, Ivor, Kyrre) def Sanin (blue, Tower, Neela, Gundula) Balance 131

After three rests on 111, we set off

111 - slow roads, Kyrre arrived, split into five heroes, immediately captured an arena nearby, leveled up attack +2, there are two Dragon Fly Hives on the grass below beyond the mountains (apparently in the treasure zone);
112 - picked up the native secondary hero;
113-114 - reached the GO (a crowd of Dragon Flies);
115 - found a nook of elves (there were already 23 of them), broke through to the teleport onto the mud;
116 - to the right, a block of a horde of Marksmen, on the mud captured another secondary hero - Inferno;
117 - at home, 1-6 in the Castle;
121-126 - ran around the mud, collected resources and money for Drakes, Kyrre leveled up nicely (got Tactics and Earth magic), picked up a necklace +1 to speed;
127 - saw that the opponent was already running near my GO, bought a Drake and killed a bunch of Necro Horses (Grands already 40+) to get through to the grass, there picked up a shield +3 to defense, transporting Kyrre and Ivor closer to home;
131 - see the opponent breaking through to the Dragon Fly Hives, realize that if I let him in there, I'll be toast, broke through the horde of Dragon Flies (8 pieces with Haste) I had 2 horses, 68 Centaurs, a few Dwarves, 41 Grands and 1 Drake, then reach Kyrre to the opponent's scout hero with magic power (5 Nagas, 8 Dragon Flies, nearly 200 Gremlins), deployed with Tactics and killed everyone except 86 Gremlins (the opponent meanwhile took down my Drake);

Then Kyrre couldn't reach Gundula with a handful of Gargoyles (a couple of moves short) - in the end I almost got completely wrecked. First the opponent attacked with a scout mage hero with a handful of Gargoyles, killing another 6 of my Grands, then Gundula attacks with stats 5 4 6 5 (a handful of Gargoyles, 12 Golems, 180+ Gremlins and 1 mage) with 50 mana against Kyrre 5 11 1 4 (41 Grands, 1+1 uniques, 1+1+1 Dwarf and 27 Centaurs) with 1 mana:( In the end, it was decided by the fact that I still covered my Grands with unique units and they RESISTED THE ARROW THREE TIMES IN A ROW :smile41: which dealt 80 damage and was aimed at the Grands. Anyway, that's what saved me:)

Thanks to Sanin for the game!

At respawn there were two external dwellings of Gremlins, quite a lot of money, and Legion's boots. Mephala and Gundula arrived. The choice of Gundula as the main hero was determined by the fact that in the direction she went, there were stat boosts, money, and meaty guards that were good for leveling. However, only Logistics was given. First Nagas at the Citadel.
121 Iona, deep in the respawn, buys all three war machines, picks up Gremlins from the external dwellings and from the secondary hero. Gargoyle upgrade.
122 Neela takes the Dwarf Cottage deep in the respawn, Naga upgrade.
123 With Gundula I break through the Guard Oblivion - a horde of Gorgons. Managed it well with Force Field. Losses: 20 Gremlins, 10 Mages, 9 Golems, a few Gargoyles, Ballista, and Ammo Cart. Took a Dragon Fly Hive with 8 Wyverns.
There were two entrances to the main treasure zone: through Ghost Dragons and through a Minotaur horde. The Minotaurs were next to the opponent's Guard Oblivion, where there was also a well, so I went there. With Mephala from a neighboring zone, I pulled an armor piece from the Alliance, and on 127 Gundula positioned directly next to the Minotaurs (one hex short to attack on that turn).
On 131 the opponent breaks through the Guard Oblivion, destroys the core of my army. There isn't enough money to buy the weekly growth. With Mephala on the external market, I sell everything down to zero, buy Golems, a single Mage, and as many Gremlins as I can. But the Unicorns didn't allow a 80 damage spell (which cost 2 mana, indeed) to kill.

Thanks for the game.

23.09.2012 AYMAN (red, Swamp, Wystan, Wystan) def bubuch (blue, Necropolis, Tamika, Tamika) 2sm4d(3), 124

We picked restarts, the distribution was average. Wystan with one stack, luckily Taz arrived with lizards and flies, the respawn was poor and blocked off. In the end I barely built a Wyvern in the Castle. I ran around collecting piles of wood and ore )). I broke through the Griffin Conservatory with throne room Guardians, took two external Gnoll dwellings and an external Harpy dwelling at the end of the week. The Necropolis secondary hero was spotted in wasteland, not encouraging. I break through the Metro Crusaders. There are Beholders there while I wait with Wystan on a flyer.

On the second, I see blue stirring around. On 121 I don't go in there, I skip the turn. On 122 I bring some reinforcements from the Castle and break through the Beholder. Then I beat two noobs and chase Tamika on Vampires away. On 123 I move Wystan towards the capital, and the scout hero moves towards what turned out to be blue's secondary hometown.
On 124 I attack blue's capital with Wystan, there are 2 Cavaliers, 5 Liches, and 80 Skeletons. Wystan has no spell book, but I managed to take blue's Castle (or rather the Fort).
Thanks for the game !!!

23.09.2012 ~no1_knows_me~ (blue, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) def marajan (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) 2sm4d(3) 121
Horses in the Citadel and +2 wood (25 gold short for the Castle). Captured a +2 axe from the Medusas, a +4 helmet from the Wasp, a mini Dwarf Cottage... the plan was – to go with growth on the Dragon Fly Hive... but the Miner pops up right under Kyrre's nose. I attack with 9 Grand Elves, 3 Dendroids, Centaurs and 3 Pegasi against 70 Troglodytes and 1 Harpy... shot down the Trogs and that was it.
Thanks for the game.

We took our time, and the distribution was based on luck... it worked out great. I placed Elves in the capital and a second-tier unit in the fortress, and they also had a hidden unit... at the beginning of the second turn, I had 3 units (1+2+3) stationed with Ivor at the Gate of the Month... but the opponent surrendered at their own Gate of the Month...
Thanks for the game!!!

26.09.2012 aka.Ward3n(blue, Stronghold, Gurnison, Gurnison) def DemonChik(red, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor) 1.4.3 2sm4d(3)
On the first day, I bought 6 heroes and found 2 in prison, totaling 8 heroes and a path to the Rampart secondary town opened :). On the second week, I captured 2 Griffin Conservatories of level 2, on the third week, a quest artifact for 10-19 hydras, for which I received 5 angels. On the fourth week, I attack ГО 66 nagas, lose 3 wolf units, and with an overwhelming meat advantage, there was no chance in the final.
Thanks for the game:smile14:

26.09.2012 Ayauhteotl (Blue, Swamp, Bron, Crag Hack) def SVAROG (Red, Tower, Solmyr, Shakti) 143 2sm4d(3)

Slow roads, 1 road from the castle. Bron came without basilisks, level 2 not built, army is small. But in the tavern
Crag Hack showed up.
111-113 mini-fights for resources, scouting. The respawn is huge, but almost nothing good; from the neutrals, only 2 gnolls.
114-115 The road forks, one leads to the GO(1-4 crystal dragons), the other leads to the underground.
Scouts find 2 passes through rough terrain to other zones, but with unpleasant shooter guards. Crag gets the log, goes to
the underground.
116-117 Crag keeps running along the path, frees a prison for 25 pegasuses, there is Broghild level 5 with expert scouting.
They never even reach the castle, still half a turn away. A passage to the treasure zone is visible below.
On day 117 1-6 in the citadel. Little money.
121 I barely scrape together enough for buying, chain-transport troops to Crag. He has 5 wyverns, 7 basilisks, 15 lizardmen, ~70 gnolls and
dragonflies. He has a ballista. I finally take the castle (dungeon) and buy a spell book there.
122-124 I break through the treasure zone guard, take a relic (8 wyverns) and send an expert scouting hero there; in the meantime, I move the troops by
chain to the only Griffin Conservatory, which luckily turns out to be level 1, and move the troops back to Crag. He levels up well -
logistics, earth magic, pathfinding.
125 - a scout discovers 3 beehives standing close together in the treasure zone, and all are guarded by crusaders. 20+, 50+ (also an artifact +3 attack and knowledge)
and 100+ (artifact +1 speed). A bit further, he sees 10+ arch devils guarding a helmet +6 all stats, 50+ elves guarding a relic, and 50+ master
genies guarding a relic and a sword +5 all stats. There is also a library and hydras, behind them are angel wings and a pandora's box.
126-127 I clear all beehives, starting from the weakest guarded ones, except for the one guarded by genies, I sacrifice all the meat on them.
About 40 wyverns and an angel remain. They don't let me expert earth magic.
131 I hit the hydras, in the pandora's box there are 70 zombies. Lucky. I hit 80 genies, get wiped out and return home, scout-transporting the army.
132-134 I transport the army. The chains don't reach. There is no money at all, but along the way I take 2 naga banks.
I upgrade the wyverns and on day 135 I hit 3 crystal dragons with losses of a few singles. Crag ~20-10-13-13, 48 greater wyverns, an angel and single dragonflies.
By the end of the week I take the opponent's main castle. Scout wars begin.
141 Crag levels up advanced air magic, and reveals the opponent's heroes. I head there through the mountains.
142 I attack Solmyr (he has single marksmen and an angel, and about 15 attack). Crag has no tactics, but with the +1 speed artifact
I managed to kill everyone in one turn.
143 - Shakti attacks Crag, but he has lower stats, fewer troops, and only 30 mana. I win.

Thanks for the game.

09/26/2012 zloy_romantik (Red, Stronghold, Kreg, Kreg) def Juristis (Blue, Tower, Eine, Kirr) quick match 125
Kreg leveled up well, gained experience in earth magic, logistics, and tactics, and also found boots that increase speed. He took the first battle on turn 122 with 2 conscripts, but with significant losses, as his defense was only 1. However, he then easily won the second battle, standing in front of 3 enemy units, but the opponent couldn't handle it.
Thanks for the game.
