высокийtell me. why does Dungeon outperform the other towns in the balance? what gives it the advantage?

It can guarantee any external dwelling to multiply by 3 in the first week. If there are no good external dwellings, then Dungeon is nothing special by itself.
And what's good about Conflux? The birds - they aren't placed that often in the balance. I think Dungeon gets external dwellings handed to it more often.

what about the high tempo at minimal cost, thanks to Shakti?)

on dirt you can overextend.

P.S. I get the feeling that after two failures iamoverit also lost his tournament motivation: at first he asked almost every day when we would play (even though I warned him right away that I could only play after 11.12), but now it's quiet, and he doesn't answer questions.

I surrendered to Tiamat, waiting for him to write the report himself.

Dungeon and Rampart are very close in strength.

Just spreading misinformation.

Please report any unfinished games on the forum and send a private message to the judges as soon as possible.

There is one game left with BlooDy)DriVeR. The save is from the second week on Mininost. I hope we can finish it in the next few days. If we don't have time, please allow a few extra days to complete the game (I will be on a business trip from Friday to Monday).

Throwing garbage into the propeller.

It's like trying to fix a hunchback with a two-meter-deep pit. )
There are people who think they know the answer to any question on any topic.
What makes it even worse is his dogmatic attitude, as if he's an expert in this game. )

Dedmazai started with Kilgore and then went silent.

I understand that when the thinking process is difficult, any new thoughts feel like you've been "fed something awful," or something like that?

Here's a special portion just for you, my personal commentator!

11/20/12 OUTLAW (blue, Rampart, Kirr, Kirr) def VanjaM (red, Swamp, Tazar, Tazar), Mini-Nostalgia, 1-3-5
My heroes are Dungeon, Conflux, and Stronghold. I quickly cleared them all on the fast roads with stables. Not far from Dungeon, there were a couple of Crystal Zephyrs and a +10 cuirass, guarded by a reasonable force. I gathered 5 Angels, took the Crystal Zephyrs and cuirass, doubled my mana, and teleported to Stronghold for the Utopia (I think it was a level 2 one). Nothing particularly good, but I got some gold. I break through the Guard Tower to the center treasure. It's not very rich, but along the way, I found a Utopia (level 3), 2 hives, and teleported to my opponent's Guard Tower on map 127. On map 131, I got a stable, doubled my mana again, and broke through to my opponent's Guard Tower. A second Rampart and a Guildhall are being built in Dungeon. My knowledge is a bit lacking – with mana doubling, I have just under 140 knowledge. While breaking through the unpleasant Guard Towers (a horde of Cyclops and many green dragons with a large stack), I spent a considerable amount on resurrection. I arrived at my opponent's capital, hoping for a surprise, but there was a chain of fortifications. Tazar returned home and settled down with 40+ ducks and 110 mana. I replenish my mana at the well to 70 and attack the red player's town, hoping for an explosion of 1600+ damage. For two rounds in a row, my explosion spells resurrect my units :smile07:, and on the third, I resurrect the 5 fallen Angels and pay them off. By this time, I had built Flight. With Teleport and Flight, countering the fast Kirr strategy looks very successful. I break through for the third part of the Chalice of Blood, take it – there's an elixir!!! I plan to clear the explored treasures and try to establish a counter-strategy by using scouting and wisdom, teaching Flight, and equipping them with items from Conflux and Dungeon. On my turn, the red player surrendered. Thank you for the game!!

During the game, I found one Utopia 3 on KV, bots with resistance, and a pirate hat. I couldn't find control, and the treasures I found were weak. Thanks for the game!

Group M. 11/20/2012. Roger DAltavilla (red, Tower, Rizza) def. ProtosArchon (blue, Stronghold, Kreg Heg), 8mm6a, 136.
Thank you for the game!
We met in the center on the second week. Rizza and Dimer with an arrow of 100 and a cost of 2 were simply dominating. Gradually, I started taking cities and hives from the blue player, and on the third week, Kreg surrendered.

With Yegor Korobeynikov, save on 121.

16.11.2012 Medium_HP (red, Fortress, Tazar, Tazar) def BorzoiD (blue, Castle, Caitlin, Gundula), Mininostalgia, 215, SoD

I was gathering Wyverns, dragging small stacks to the Necropolis town for splitting, roads were long, Town Portal in four Magic Shrines didn't drop, a couple of Necromancers were mostly busy chaining, so I didn't split everything and raised very few skeletons. Got lucky with the 5th Shrine, it immediately gave Dimension Door, too bad I was a day late to steal the Vial of Life from the opponent.
On day 215, I jumped through a prison to the blue capital, regretted not using resources to upgrade 8 Angels, since the next day without a trade I would have had enough, and Gundula wasn't visible nearby. Alas, I was attacked immediately; against my 110 Wyverns, 900+ Skeletons, 8 Angels, 20 Grand Elves, and some small stacks, there were 13 Archangels, 1300+ Skeletons, 30+ Wyverns, Elixir. Battle stats were roughly equal, Tazar had the Orb of Vulnerability, the lack of armor on Gundula decided it.

Thanks for the game.


20.11.2012 Medium_HP (red, Fortress, Broghild, Broghild) def TERM (blue, Conflux, Monere, Monere), 8mm6a, 141, WT-full

A very resource-tight start, but Griffin Conservatories and Dragon Fly Hives were generous, by day 141 everything looked quite formidable. The opponent accidentally dug up the main hero, but we didn't load the autosave, as after discussion it became clear the distribution was clearly in my favor.

Thanks for the game.

Group H

21.11.2012 c0nn3c71nkK.ppL (red, confl, Monere/Tazar) def yarzapp (blue, strong, Tyrax, Crag Hack) 121 2sm4d(3)

Perfect 1 week, which played well. Got a house with logistic, Tazar, Mariuss. Had lvl2 from start. Took water elemental and physic elements week 1. On 121 bought all army and got cons 1. Could be nice to continue, but opponents gaves up.

Thanks for playing!

I confirm losses against Pit for LM and Conn.ppl

Group M

We agreed with Yegor to meet on Friday evening.
