p.s. unfortunately, my autosave counter glitched, and I couldn't always save the game manually due to the fast-paced gameplay. But akaWard3n has the game saves.
If you have HD mode enabled, you can turn on the autosaver in it; if not, it's worth installing it. What if you encounter an opponent who is just as skilled as you are? Will complaints start, and will you have to replay until you're exhausted because there's nothing to judge by?

17.12.2012 Iamsamstan (blue, Castle, Valeska, Sonya) def. aka.Ward3n (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) 2sm4d(3) 125

I've never had a game like this. I should start by saying I got very lucky with the layout. On day 111 I revealed 4 piles of gold and an external dwelling of horses (which later turned out to be behind the Horde of Forest Elves), which made me a bit sad, and also that the Archers weren't built. In the tavern I got Orrin and Luna. I was really worried the opponent would take a rest, so I took Luna on day 3. This fact did not go unnoticed by the opponent, but he didn't rest. On day 111 I bought 4 heroes, took the external dwelling of Archers, and went scouting. One road led to the secondary Inferno, the other went through the grass. On day 114 I saw the GO, and that the opponent was at the bottom. Great. On day 114 I burned the external dwelling of Monks, the Griffin Conservatory with 3 Angels, on day 115 I took my native secondary, built the Mage Guild, and added Haste and Slow with Archery to the Fire Wall. And off we went. I couldn't build a Citadel in either castle by day 117 due to buyouts, so in one castle I had horses in the Fort, and in the other, upgraded Archers. And on day 117 I saw the opponent come out of the exit near the capital with Shakti, having 31 Evil Eyes and 160 upgraded Troglodytes. I was saved by the fact that he went the wrong way and didn't capture the capital. I had Valeska there with 2 horses. I urgently started transferring the army from Luna and really messed up, defeating her at the Griffin Conservatory on day 117 without hiring her the same day — basically, I dismissed her. The opponent saw the capital and headed towards it on day 121. I managed to bring up the army and had to hire Sonya in the castle. And the first epic battle took place. Shakti (level 5) 3 4 1 2 with 31 Evil Eyes, 160 upgraded Troglodytes, and single units, against Sonya 1 0 2 2 (level 1) 4 unupgraded horses, 50 Crossbowmen, 3 Monks, 8 Swordsmen, and 69 Pikemen. Shakti fled, and Sonya was left with 28 Archers, 49 Pikemen, and 3 Monks. And she moved further into the dungeon, where on day 122 Sephiroth attacked her with single units and Archery, which Sonya later learned thanks to Eagle Eye. And on day 123 in the dungeon, Shakti attacked Sonya with 8 Evil Eyes and 57 upgraded Troglodytes, but was again forced to retreat, leaving Sonya with 4 Archers and 31 Pikemen. On day 124 Sonya defeats the opponent's secondary (Dungeon) Aine, who hadn't learned Archery, which was a big surprise for the opponent. Finally, on day 126 Sonya, having replenished her mana, finished off Shakti in the capital. Thanks for the game!
p.s. unfortunately, my autosave counter glitched, and I couldn't always save games manually due to the game's dynamics. But akaWard3n has game saves.

I confirm.
It developed nicely, double, but no money. There was a Dwarf Cottage with 30 units, but I chickened out on going in there. (on replay it turned out the losses were only 3 Harpies), an external dwelling of Evil Eyes, I thought the exit to the treasure zone turned out to be towards the opponent. Well, I thought, I'll finish him off faster, but I went the wrong way:mad: . In the end, I lost a day, couldn't fight on day 121, and on day 122 the opponent bought out the week 2 growth and I saw 50 Arbs:eek: . As it turned out, the opponent had a double plus external dwelling and didn't manage to bring in 60 Troglodytes + 8 Evil Eyes. But that's all nonsense. I realize the opponent had no military resources left, he bought everything out (I spotted that the Fort was there, but only 4 horses). And then I make 2 epic fails in a row. 1st, I train Sephiroth with Aine to use Archery to thin out the Archer stack, and I give her the SCROLL OF ARCHERY:smile35: . Result: I gave away the scroll. Then I attack with Shakti, and Archery perfectly thins out my stack + an epic hit by the Troglodytes without a return attack, and morale on the Pikemen. And then Sanya makes a mistake by attacking Aine with 3 Harpies and a Troglodyte. And then [CENSORED] I look at the spell book, and THERE'S NO ARCHERY! And there are 4 Arbs, 2 Archery units, and the opponent should be retreating:smile35: . A bit of haste took its toll — I had to submit my term paper today.

P.S. I got an A on it, now I thirst for blood:smile19:
Thanks to my opponent for the game. They won't give you gifts like that here anymore:rolleyes: . And about my game, I'll respond with the words of my probability theory teacher: "A sucker is fate":smile02: ()_о_()

Opp took 111 twice and started
111. 5 elves arrive, another 6 in the tavern, 18 total, perfectly fine. Charna and Turis arrive, the rush begins, collecting abundant gold and chests. Ivor moves through the grass towards the external dwelling of dendroids, pegasi and centaurs are found there as well.
112. Around is nothing but snow and snow, and orcs are stationed on 2 roads. Ivor with grand elves takes the external dwellings and stables. The respawn is practically stripped clean, but there are clusters of 1st level mobs guarding their riches.
113. Ivor takes the bowstring for 15 crusaders and +1000 exp, archery expert. Astral under hypnosis breaks through gnolls with dwarves and pikemen and reveals the lookout. A GO of war unicorns is visible, as well as an external dwelling of Rampart for 20-49 swordsmen, a Griffin Conservatory on the snow not far away, a crypt, and a medusa dwelling. 1000 is placed.
114. Ivor reaches the end of the respawn, takes another external dwelling of centaurs, and prepares for a snowy journey. The losses scatter and await a resupply of dendroids and pegasi at the castle.
115. There's a lot of tasty stuff in the snow, but the speed is disappointing. The losses break through 50+ skeletons for a chest using 6 wolves.
116. Ivor has 2 experts and 20-49(43) swordsmen for a useless artifact and a chest. The losses beat off everything they can and wait for the unicorns to fight the orcs the next day.
117. 2 rocs + 5 pegasi + 6 wolves under the cover of pikemen break through 29 orcs, then 33 boars for a chest and a pyre. Ivor runs to the crypt. The losses split up for resupply from external dwellings. Total 123456 in the citadel.
121. Ivor takes the crypt for 2k and runs further. The losses take the mini-medusa dwelling and 3 water wheels. The plan for the next turn is to take the tower. But news of surrender arrives. gg
thanks for the game

In all 3 games with the second hero, I didn't get any archers. The last time, they were at least built, and in the tavern, I decided not to take the remaining resource. In the first week, I unsuccessfully entered a pre-maxi dungeon; the skeletons didn't manage to remove 2 from the remaining wamp, resulting in the archers not shooting for 1 turn, and then they didn't shoot due to low morale, and Isra with her army left. I built stables in the citadel; I still have Tamika, and Valeska has leveled up a bit. In the second week, with 5 horses (I didn't even see stables for their upgrade), I attack 20+ storms, took a small amount of loot, so -1 horse. On the same turn, I don't take the skeletons from Tamika:smile35: and attack the second guard with 100+ gr. butterflies; they accepted me there.
Thanks for the game.

I thought for a long time about who to pick at the start. Decided on Tirax and wasn't wrong))
14 dogs brought by the hero + external dwelling + dogs built, so we have 35 of them
Imps, crypts are broken through and the secondary Swamp is taken
On 116 Tirax already has Air expert
On 121 Mass Haste
On the 1st week, orcs, birds, bears in the Citadel and 1-3 in the Swamp + I placed 1000 in the main town
On the 2nd week, I take 2 Griffin Conservatories 2+3 and 2 Wyvern nests 12+8 and place Wyverns in the Swamp
Also take secondary Dungeon
On 131, army recruitment and I break GO 95, somewhere around improved Wyverns without oil, sacrificed all dogs (1 angel, 3-4 Wyverns
But right away I see the opponent's respawn, 2 Griffin Conservatories, I decide to check, they are untouched. Immediately realized things weren't going well there
I take both Griffin Conservatories 2+2. I take the opponent's empty Castle. Then I attack Tazar. Victory!!
Ps Tirax brought wolves, and wolves brought victory))
Thanks for the game!

Thanks for the game! The random draw was decent on 112 — external dwelling of Waspworts and Wyverns, but after that I started losing troops wherever and whenever I could. That's why I didn't take the 2 Griffin Conservatories, lost the tempo, and ultimately couldn't do anything.

Didn't rest at all.
111 Near the Castle a horde of zombies blocks the pass and guards the tree + a level. In the tavern, Enova and Fyr right away, up the path an experience stone, all heroes at level 3. Fyr picks up Logistics, a potential main. Along the path an external dwelling of elves is visible. I take it immediately.
112 Found a stable and an external market, got a decent amount of gold. Immediately tried to break out to a secondary area but there were many shooter stacks. After breaking through about 2 stacks, lost almost all centaurs. Secondary is underground; upon entering the underground I saw that the road is blocked by a horde of lizardmen, turned around the other way.

To the second secondary there's also a shooter stack, but there is a second passage through the trees. I barely scraped through them, and then a block of 100+ hobgoblins guarding a Pandora's Box. Immediately attacked the Pandora's Box for 5k gold.

The next day I reached an observation point and saw.....:smile11: the road to the secondary goes around the mountain; for Fyr with expert Logistics and the stable it's almost 3 days to run.:smile35: I send just a scout hero there. Meanwhile, Tazar arrives, I decide to make him the main. I level him a bit, a passage to the treasure zone is visible. On day 131 with a supply chain I entered the treasury. I went through it thoroughly, many Dragon Fly Hives but all small, only 26 Wyverns (did lose about 6 though). In the treasury I found a sword (+12 -3), Spikes of the Abyss, and gloves of haste. But many Pandora's Boxes for experience; Tazar is level 19. March to the 2nd treasury. Another 3 Dragon Fly Hives; the Pandora's Boxes give.... Liches :smile18: and I find a scroll of Chain Lightning; plus in the 1st treasury there was an orb for +50% dmg. to air. Chain Lightning ends up at 990. I break through and go to hit the GO and to the opponent. Opp wanted to surrender a bit earlier because some losses gave negative morale, but I asked him to play the FB out. Advantage in stats. And gg. Thanks to my opponent for the game!:smile02:

We didn't respawn at all.
111 A horde of zombies blocks the passage under the Castle and guards the tree + a level. In the tavern, Jova and Fior are immediately available; further up the path there's an experience stone, all heroes are level 3. Fior picks up Logistics, potential main. The path reveals an external dwelling of elves. I clear it immediately.
112 I found a stable and an external market, got quite a bit of gold. I immediately tried to get to a secondary hero but there are many shooter blockers. After clearing about 2 stacks, I lost almost all Centaurs. The secondary hero is underground; upon entering the underground, I saw the path blocked by a horde of Lizardmen, turned the other way.

To the second secondary hero, there's also a shooter blocker, but there's a second passage through the trees. I barely cleared them, and then a block of 100+ Hobgoblins guarding a Pandora's Box. I immediately opened the Pandora's Box for 5k gold.

The next day, I reached a lookout point and saw.....:smile11: the road to the secondary hero goes around a mountain, with Fior having Expert Logistics and a stable it takes almost 3 days to get there.:smile35: I just send a scout hero there. Meanwhile, Tazar arrives, I decide to make him my main. I level him a bit, I see a passage to the treasure zone. On day 1, turn 3, with a supply run, I enter the treasure zone. I cleared it thoroughly, there are many Dragon Fly Hives but all small, 26 Wyverns total (lost about 6 though). In the treasure zone, I found a sword (+12 -3), boots of speed, and gloves of speed. But many small Pandora's Boxes with experience, Tazar is level 19. Going to a 2nd treasure zone. 3 more Dragon Fly Hives, in the Pandora's Boxes they give .... Liches :smile18: and I find a Chain Lightning scroll, plus in the first treasure zone a sphere for +50% dmg. to air. Chain Lightning deals 990 damage in the end. I surrender, go to fight the GO and my opponent. Opponent wanted to surrender a bit earlier, because small losses gave -morale, but I asked him to have a Final Battle. Stat advantage. And gg. Thanks to my opponent for the game!:smile02:
I confirm!
Even if I had pulled it off, I would have still given the victory to my opponent, because I took auto. And then things just didn't work out. After opening the saves, I saw a 2nd Dragon Utopia which had a sword +5 all. And 4 Dragon Fly Hives nearby, but all minimum level. Of course I could have continued massing Skeletons and even fought for victory, but after another blunder in combat (-morale), I decided to surrender into the Castle and have a Final Battle. I don't know why I even played this layout (the respawn is VERY small and poor, my opponent's is much richer + an external dwelling of elves under the Castle), since there were restarts, but I fell for the upgraded Wolves. But today is not my day and not my game. Thanks to my opponent for the game. Good luck in the tournament!:smile44:

tower, inferno, and stronghold remain
got away with just one restart from the opponent

111 only 4 heroes... but... near the castle there's an experience stone. Crag with Logistics. Nearby are three mercenary camps. They can boost attack by 3 per turn. Then it gets even more wonderful. Within one turn's distance are two Griffin Conservatories. Behind them is an Arena. Near the castle is a Dragon Utopia. Lovely :smile03: in the castle there are wolves. Birds became available.
112 5 heroes. In the castle there are orcs. From a skeleton, a sword +3 attack :smile44:
113 Birds upgraded. Crag headed south, Das north. Need to break through 20-49 orcs. Luckily there's Tactics, so the birds can fly there immediately.
114 Das opens the path to the northern riches. Crag halted at the southern guard. Building a Citadel.
115 In the south, 20-49 nomads are broken through. Reached a secondary 10-19 vases. Got to the grass. Rushed to find the castle. Stats 11-1-4-1.
116 Secondary taken. Visited the stable and arena. In the main castle, I plopped elves in the secondary. I regretted it later.
117 Gathering all the gold we see. Took a pre-maximum crypt. Worked at the market, and in the castle, bears became available. Crag on a bird holed up in the stable. 4 Griffin Conservatories are revealed on the map. Plans like Napoleon's.
121 All plans were ruined by Gosh. He dashed out of the fog to my secondary. Took the gloves I was aiming for and stood next to my scout hero. His army has skeletons, pit fiends, efreet, and... an angel. What to do? All gold is spent. Resources have been traded. The main castle is full of troops, but there's nothing to buy them with. We leave the scout hero not far from Gosh, on the opposite side from my spawn. Hope is that they will kill him.
122 The scout hero died a hero's death. Lured Gosh away. He also spotted a crypt and went there too. I'm collecting money. Everyone is involved.
123 Crag visited another arena. Stood next to a Griffin Conservatory. Galtran is visible. He's on a speedster with 1 angel. But still shouldn't reach me.
124 That's it. Nothing's scary now. From the Griffin Conservatory: 2 angels. From the castle: 3 bears. 26 orcs, 8 upgraded birds, 7 grand elfs. Crag level 7, expert Attack, expert Logistics, advanced Pathfinding. Could have attacked himself. Decided to just wait.
125 Gosh approached the castle and stopped. I had a choice: either attack or wait in the castle. I chose the worse option. I thought Gosh had no choice but to attack.
126 Gosh turns around and hits GO for a long time. Broke through 10-19 hydras. I think it's over. I'm a bad player. Why didn't I finish it. Now I'll have to chase him on his territory. But Gosh kept going through mine. Crag catches up, and here's the finale. Crag has 16-3-4-1, troops already listed. Gosh, I think, 5-4-3-5, no mana. Units: a sultan of efreet. 1 angel. About 100 skeletons. The fight was purely formal. There followed a surrender.

Thanks for the game!

I had 1 stack of gogs, but Galtran had 3 stacks, then +350 gold, it was decent to play, although the path was blocked by 50 elves, but there was a way around. On d1d4 with pits and demons I took the Griffin Conservatory 1. On d1d5 the Medusa hive 8 (lost 2 demons and 2 gogs due to anti-morale and petrification). I could have pushed 50 boars or 20 hounds, which turned out to be closer. Had Observatory, Gloves of the Negotiator, and Helm of the Alabaster +2 primary skill, the opponent's scout heroes and secondary hero were revealed. I went for a scout hero, there was a Crypt and an artifact for morale (that's what baited me). Then the scout hero took another Crypt for a Ring of the Guiding Light +1 morale/luck, and I decided to already move towards the opponent, especially since I had Expert Earth with Shield and Haste on a scroll. Took a Naga Bank, 1000 experience - got Air. Attacking the Bears and Angels in the Castle was suicidal, so I decided to go home and farm more skeletons, but the passage through 17 Chaos Hydras left too little army and mana, and I forgot that Galtran is not Crag Hack and his damage is catastrophically low.
Thanks for the game.
