Monstro_aka_h3(blue,Conflux,random,Ciele) def Smoke_mk (red,Necro,Tant,tant)2sm4d(3)136
111-117 built birds, colored the external dwelling of butterflies behind a crowd of stone gargoyles, secondary Inferno.
121-127 two minimal Griffin Conservatories, shield +3/+3 behind a horde of eyes and a scroll of Teleport behind a crowd of horned ones. But forgot to build a Stronghold and Castle.
Got stingy and decided to go visit Ciele with expert Water and Teleport. Since the roads are slow and the spaces are huge, reached the opponent only on 136, but the opponent was even further from his castle and couldn't execute the chain. GG thanks for the game

He fell for the 9 Elves start, as a result, his performance was very poor. He placed 12345 in his main town and citadel, but he had a hidden stash of Ifrits on his secondary town and 100+ skeletons. In the second round, he comes out to the opponent, and I overwhelm him - he didn't have enough money for horses. Thanks for the game!

12.12.2012 SeniorPomidor (blue, Citadel, Gurni, Gurni) def JustObserver (red, Conflux, Fiur, Fiur) 124 2sm4d(3)

First game after a year.

We restarted a lot. In the end, the roll was mediocre: a narrow respawn, but with wolves.

Week 1. As usual, I fed a lot of meat early on. One adjacent zone past the sharpshooters was not an option, so I went down the road to the other adjacent zone. The only money dwellings were medusa huts, so there wasn't much gold at first. In the end, I scouted and discovered a lot of free gold piles, which allowed me to buy bears in the Citadel. As for artifacts: I got a shield for +4 from a skeleton for free and a sword for +3 from orcs, plus I visited the Coliseum. Gurni already has decent stats.

Week 2. I took the native secondary. I bought birds. I bought all the birds, bears, and wolves. I went into the treasure zone, picking up an external dwelling of birds on the way. Total 16 birds. I didn't have time to really scout anything in the treasure zone; the opponent surrendered.

The match consisted of two parts, I streamed both times.

Kyrre killed Kyrre. The situation was interesting. I had a native secondary castle, and my opponent had 2 hidden manticores and access to an excellent treasure! But I got lucky!
Thank you for the game!

11-12.12.12. St_Klaus (red, Rampart, Mephala) def Rockmachine (blue, Necropolis, random, Galthran) 143 2sm4d(3)
We didn't take restarts for some reason.
111 – nothing special, collecting resources, building elves, 4 heroes, Kyrre arrived.
112 – turns out there's plenty of gold, Mephala takes the maxi crypt (artifact from Hypnosis), a scout hero breaks the prison -> + another scout hero; a swamp secondary mine with 10-19 Ogre Magi is scouted, the guard is beaten. Dendroids.
113 – territory scouting, resource collection. Isra arrived as the sixth hero, though later there wasn't much need for necromancy. Citadel.
114 – secondary mine in the swamp is taken -> + tavern. Clearing the respawn, collecting resources. Pegasi.
115 – upgrade of elves, as there's a need to pass to the neighboring grass respawn guarded by 20-49 Griffins, ferrying troops from the castle.
116 – the Griffins are beaten, along the way a quest artifact guarded by 10-19 Wizards is scouted. Unicorns.
117 – Mephala frees Valeska from prison. Level 1. Valya captures a secondary castle, builds Archers in it. Already 8 heroes. A guardhouse is scouted, the only external dwelling in the whole game, I never took it. I start trading resources at the market with the aim of building the castle in the capital, but I simply can't make it within 6 minutes, as a result – 13456 in the Citadel.
121 – Selective clearing of neighboring respawns, upgrade of Unicorns, building the 1000 in the swamp, a tavern – in the castle. Decided to level Mephala on 20+ Earth Elementals. And they turned out to be very "+", even though they guarded just one mill. Almost got wiped, only 9 elves left.
122 – Resource collection. Upgrade of Centaurs. 1000 in the castle. A scout hero lights up the observation point, now I can watch the opponent's heroes moving from the underground to the secondary (castle) and back.
123 – Kyrre on 5 Unicorns takes a crypt, cleans up the remaining shooters from the respawn, collects chests, Mephala runs to the capital, where Mage Guild-1 is built. The scout heroes move chaotically, creating the illusion of some kind of chain. I put a Blacksmith in each secondary.
124 – I hide a scout hero in the castle, recruit Ivor from the tavern with 4 elves and 20+ Centaurs. The scout heroes move around: either to pick something up, or to transfer troops. Finally built the castle in the capital and + Mage Guild-1 in the castle.
125 – Another path leads towards the mud, a scout hero breaks the guard, I send Isra to check it out, I build a chain to the Wizards for the quest artifact. Mephala is at the tip of the attack, I decided to make her the main hero. Mage Guild-2 in the capital, City Hall in the castle.
126 – Mephala captures the artifact from the Wizards with considerable losses – 2 Unicorns and over a dozen Centaurs, breaks into the swamp secondary mine, next to it – a Seer's Hut, they give 15k experience for the artifact. Main hero – expert Leadership, Armorer, Wisdom, Water Magic, basic Archery, stats 5-7-4-2 with no artifacts at all. Build 1000 in the capital.
127 – First contact in the swamp with the opponent's scout. Main hero captures the Gnoll Flail from 50-99 thieves, breaks into the secondary castle. For some reason I built Dwarves in the capital. The scout heroes mostly transfer troops back and forth.
131 – I upgrade Pegasi, almost all are bought except Centaurs and Dwarves; I break the Basilisks guarding the lift to the underground in close proximity to the lift the opponent uses to run to his secondary. I take one last risk to power-level the main hero. The scout heroes ferry troops.
132 – In the underground there are 2 directions – south and east. I go south, a scout hero defeats 20+ Obsidian Gargoyles for the Shield +4, I find blue lurking Nagash with a dozen Zombies taken right there from an external dwelling. I can't reach him. Nearby is a guarded prison. I clear the guard. I build the upgrade for Archers in the castle.
133 – Nagash kills my scout hero, a Swordsman, and runs away. Whether I chased him, I don't remember. I free Sorsha from prison. Isra hangs around in the mud, doesn't get far – blocked by shooters, collects goodies. I upgrade Dwarves, buy them, transfer.
134 – I advance in the underground to the east. Mephala, Kyrre, and a scout hero. Mage Guild-3.
135 – I decided to first capture the opponent's secondary that's visible from the observation point, I exit towards his side with my main force from the subway. The opponent apparently placed a Darkness Veil in his main town, and with each turn in the underground – it's pitch black. I positioned scout heroes to prevent darkness. Market in the capital.
136 – My main hero captures the opponent's secondary castle, I power up on Pegasi. Built Mage Guild-1 to replenish mana. The scout heroes scout the road to the opponent's main castle. Fooling around started, I built a Miner's Guild for some reason ).
137 – An opponent's hero with seven black horses came by, killed one of my scouts. Or two. So the Necropolis castle is very close. The main hero takes a Hive for 8 Wyverns. Meanwhile Isra builds a Wyvern Nest in the swamp secondary to transfer it the next day.
141 – Everyone rushes together from all sides towards the underground. Mage Guild-4 in the capital. Just in case. With Frenzy and Prayer.
142 – Kyrre intercepts the troops brought by the scout heroes and catches up to Mephala, who is heading towards the opponent's castle.
143 – Mephala visits the Marletto Tower and with stats 9-13-5-3, 39 Grand Archers, 51 Grand Elves, 11 Unicorns, 12 Wyverns, 18 Pegasi, 16 Dendroids, 24 Dwarves and 30 mana attacks the castle, where Galthran with 4-5-3-3 (or 5-5-3-3) has 8 Cavaliers, about fifty Grand Zombies + single Vampires and Skeletons, 60 mana. Only the central castle tower was painfully spitting. Otherwise – no chance. Thanks for the game.
I didn't encounter a single external dwelling except Pikemen, and not a single Conservatory throughout the entire game.

What a contrast...:rolleyes: They should learn from Santa Claus how to write reports, instead of just trying to boost their rating:( :smile35: !..
