15.05.2013 Maretti (red, dung, shakti, tamika) def aka.Ward3n (blue, castle, caitlin, hack) 8mm6a 144

Very good map ment that I at 144 had tamika with perfect skills, boots and gloves, air and earth book, stats 21 19 12 16, 15 angels, 11 scorps, 37 mino kings, 24 wyvs and 1350 skells. Seeing this opponent decided to give up. Thanks for playing.

Confirm. Starting area was too small but have 1con and cavalier dvell, but under 73 water elementals. Take 1st computer Dungeon on 113, Flux on 123. But 1 con and Crag is all best on my part of map. "Nothing to do here" said Crag and going surrender. Luck was not on his side. GG WP, thx for game. Hack rules, but not in my broken arms:D

15.05.2013 Roger-ua (red, Rampart, Kyr, Kyr) def Caution (blue, Stronghold, Gurnisson, Gurnisson) 2sm4d(3) 124 .
Started playing without restarts. Dealt without elves and built dwarves. But there was a tower - saw 2 Griffin Conservatories nearby. True, money was tight. First week 13456 in the citadel, second week native elves but 5 heroes. No chain, can't split up, Kyr just runs home. Only on 124 does Kyr come out to break through 2 Conservatories. Kyr Expert Earth magic, true without Slow. Army ready: 5 unicorns, 80 centaurs, 31 grand elf, 7 dwarves, pixies. Waiting for 125 to break through the Conservatories. But the opponent writes that everything is bad and surrenders.
Thanks for the game!

We started playing without resets. It dealt no elves and no built-up dwarves. But there was a lookout tower — I saw 2 Griffin Conservatories nearby. Though money was tight. First week 13456 in the Citadel, secondary native elves but 5 heroes. No chain, I can't split up, Kyrre just runs home. Only on turn 124 Kyrre goes out to break through 2 Conservatories. Kyrre expert Earth Magic unfortunately without Slow. Army ready: 5 unicorns, 80 Centaurs, 31 Grand Elves, 7 Dendroid Soldiers, Pixies. I wait for turn 125 to break the Conservatories. But the opponent writes that everything is bad and surrenders.
Thanks for the game!

Confirmed
Actually, the first mistake was not taking a reset. I fell for it because both heroes came with 6 orcs each, I saw that the respawn was almost empty, but I decided that I could break through to the secondary right away. Only later did I see the secondary guards — lots of Ice Elementals and Crusaders. Having checked the only Conservatory, which naturally turned out to be 100-249, and having prayed, I break through 20 Crusaders. A good half of the goblins did not approve of such a decisive step and died. On turn 116 I run to the secondary, finding boots along the way — Castle. By turn 121 the scout heroes have almost all run around, thank goodness for the scouting. Nothing interesting, except another Conservatory 100-249. By turn 121 I have 1235 in the Fort. No money.
Troops are almost absent — 6 griffins, 20 orcs, some meat, nowhere to get them. Nothing to do, on turn 122 I enter the Inferno triple through 38 Pit Lords, I observe 2 Dragon Fly Hives behind Pegasi and Swordsmen. I risk attacking the Pegasi, counting on Oil, predictably I lose. Opponent persuades me to take auto. Okay, the second time I bypass the Pegasi and in desperation try to take a Pandora's Box behind a hundred Golems, because the alternative is only to run God knows where to another secondary with unclear prospects, somehow shot about 90 of them, and died.
Thanks for the game.

Thanks for the game, I blundered a lot, Kyrre is reactive

hack suck.

14.05.2013 Dsquared (blue, Citadel, Grecha) def zoog (red, Dungeon, Shacal) 2sm4d(3) 135
The most terrible respawn I've ever had to play as Citadel. I was sure I'd lose the whole game, but my opponent's situation turned out to be even worse.
Thanks for the game.

15.05.2013 Dsquared (blue, Citadel, Grecha) def mizrael (red, Dungeon, Shacal) 2sm4d(3) 126
My opponent broke into my respawn at 124 and paid for it.
Thanks for the game.

15.05.2013 AYMAN (red, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) def Vinceras (Castle, Valeska, Tazar) 2sm4d(3), 212
Finished the postponed game. As I recall, the spawn was average, with an external dwelling of green creatures at the respawn. I don't remember the exact sequence of events; I took secondary Necropolis, Swamp via a very long road, and Dungeon.
On the second week, I took the external dwelling of greens (couldn't take it on the first week due to inconvenient guard).
Entered the treasure zone; I remember I had no stat artifacts at all. By the end of the third week, Kyrre essentially only had the Blue Cap, won in the treasure zone. Also, in the treasure zone, due to difficult blockages, I gave away about 4-5 unique creatures and some Wyverns.
At the start of the fourth week, the opponent breaks through the General's Flag with Tazar, leveled up on Archangels. Kyrre retreats home, shops, and waits in the Castle; Tazar arrived at an inopportune time and didn't let Kyrre take the Dragon Utopia in the second treasure zone. But in the end, Tazar runs in the other direction, Kyrre takes the home Dragon Utopia (Sentinel's Shield, Necklace +3 all stats, and Wings), then clears the Dungeon, where another Dragon Utopia is taken — I don't remember what it gave. Plus a Hive and all the land in Pandora's boxes. The scout hero trades a quest artifact +1 speed for 5 Ghost Dragons.
On turn 211, full shopping, Wyvern upgrade in the Swamp, mana refill. On turn 212, Kyrre attacks Tazar, and the FB advantage in meat and stats decided the outcome.
Thanks for the game!!!!!

15.05.2013 AYMAN (red, Rampart, Kirry, Kirry) def Vinceras (Castle, Valeska, Tazar) 2sm4d(3), 212
Finished the postponed game. As I recall, the distribution was average; there was a green external dwelling on the respawn. I don't remember the exact sequence of events, but I took the second necro, the swamp via the long road, and the dungeon.
On the second week, I took the green external dwelling (on the first it was impossible to take due to awkward guards).
I entered the treasure zone; I remember that I had absolutely no stat artifacts. By the end of the third week, Kirry basically only had a blue cap recovered in the treasure zone. Also, due to complex blocks in the treasure zone, I lost about 4-5 uniques and some ducks.
At the start of the fourth week, the opponent breaks through ГО Tazar boosted by archangels. Kirry retreats home, buys up, and waits in the castle; Taz arrived at the wrong time and didn't let Kirry take the Dragon Utopia in the second treasure zone. But eventually, Taz runs off in another direction, and Kirry takes the home Dragon Utopia (Sentry's Shield, necklace + 3 all, and wings), then breaks into the dungeon, where another Dragon Utopia is taken—I don't remember what it gave. + Hive and all the land in Pandora. The loser exchanges a quest artifact +1 speed for 5 ghost dragons.
On 211 full buy-up, upgrade of weavers in the swamp, mana replenishment; on 212 Kirry attacks Taz and the FB advantage in one-shot power and stats decided the outcome.
Thanks for the game !!!!!!

I confirm. After breaking through ГО, I scouted the land and saw that the roads were long; I decided that running to the opponent for 2 days wasn't an option, tried to pull something off, but Kirry turned out to be stronger.
Thanks for the game!

15.05.2013 Roger-ua (red, Rampart, Kir, Kir) def Rockmachine (blue, Castle, Tiris, Tiris) 2sm4d(3), 222.
At 111, I repelled the spirit of despair. One road led to ГО; by the second block, there were 20+ lizards, so I decided to go cross-country toward the secondary town. I stepped onto lava and lost a lot of time, getting nowhere. In the 2nd week, I broke through the lizards and took the Necropolis secondary town; it was alone. I went into the treasure zone; Kir got Wisdom, then Magic Resistance. Neither Slow nor Haste were there. By the end of the 3rd week, Tiris peeked into the treasure zone with 5+ angels. There were 28 ducks; I snatched Pandora from under her nose, along with 25 medusae and a hive, and ran. Another Pandora had 15 minotaurs and another hive. Tiris took the capital and is already flying. At my own respawn, I took the Dragon Utopia, which gave Earth and Water books; it became easier. Tiris flew away, sensing something was wrong. I retook the capital and went to the snowy treasure zone; fortunately, anticipating such a turn of events, I had taken a Ranger. At the beginning of the second month, Tiris flew back and took the capital again. Kir took another Dragon Utopia and a couple of hives in the snow and returned to the Necropolis secondary town for FB. The FB took place at 215. Kir's blast was 2025, which decided everything. Tiris fled with 40 archers, leaving Kir with 36 wyverns and 11 unicorns. Tiris's only hope was Flight. Kir retook her own capital and seized the opponent's capital. At 221, she got Archangels. With GM5 built, there was DD to catch up to Tiris. But while visiting another hive, I saw a teapot on the sand. I had to use DD to grab the teapot. The opponent congratulated me on the victory.
Thanks for the game.

16.05.2013 Maretti (red, tower, rissa, neela) def Rebellious (blue, flux, labetha, dace) 8mm6a 224

16 hour game with no saves and a happy ending.

Week 1 I took my cpu players town day 7. He had been so friendly to build nagas there, so I had an early dbl build. Got log on neela.

Week 2 I didnt gain much, but at least took some more towns and explored some. Didnt find any cons and only 2 hives.

Week 3 and 4 I had explored all and only way out was where I have had contact with the opponent, so I started building guild and got lucky with tp and dd.

Now things started to go well. I took a 3rd fully built tower town from the cpu and could take some cons, hives and topes. I had some good scouts so things went fast. I waited for new production and then went for his towns and heroes. In the end I had him cornered and he decided to attack. Neela 32 23 with recanters, 14 titans, 52 naga queens, 47 wyverns, 51 master genies, 97 arch magis, 8 angels and 540 master gremlins vs Dace 22 23, 2 to speed, 19 firebirds, 6 angels, 50 plus wyvs and more. He attacked with all after mass haste. I countered with slow and haste and won clearly. Thanks for playing.

Played with chess-timer (20-7-20). Not enough time in the late stage of the game. Was pure map: first utopia fighted at 141 and few hives and conservatories. The boring game: no my active attacks and really slept in the middle of the game and presented a nearest snow treasure. The opponent had 14 Titans and fifty Nagas and other troops from tripple-tower. I had a chance, but less need to sleep during the game :smile26: Thx for game.

16.05.2013 Shkent (red, swamp, Tazar, Deemer) def shameonyou (blue, Cita, Crag, Crag) JS 136

The rests ended, the external dwelling gave so-so Hive and Wyvern, 2 Griffin Conservatory triple builds, Taz got Earth Magic at the end of week 2, around the same time Slow was found in a hut, took 2 Griffin Conservatories, breached the GO at 132 in an epic manner.

Gorged on the center, clashed with crap armies, then split up with Crag to clear our respective parts of the center, I got a better drop — was given Red Orb and Air Book, trapped Crag in his Castle on 136, all hope was on a blowout, stat and army advantage. Surrender follows.

Thanks for the game

16.05.2013 The_ (red, Necropolis, Galthran, Galthran) def Mar (blue, Rampart, Mephala, Mephala) JC 137.

Got completely punished during the looting phase.
First week: found two external dwellings of horses and one external dwelling of drakes, picked up a secondary hero, ate a Pandora's box for 60 skeletons, at the Citadel 124567.

Second week: buy up the entire growth from the external dwellings and the Citadel (there was a Marketplace), pick up the flask +2 HP, the ring +1 HP, a Pandora's box 5k experience, take the home Dragon Utopia (+12 sword and a level 5 hat), at 126 I break through a ГО of hydras without magic, neither earth nor anything else was given, and Galthran's level is low.

Third week: found two ГО of the opponent, neither was broken through, relaxed, started messing around running through Peasant dwellings and Gnome dwellings, the Necro raising skeletons. At 135 I saw the opponent in the center, realized there were a few more exits, but since almost the entire center was eaten, the opponent had nowhere to run except towards me, I fly Galthran towards the opponent, Mephala attacks herself. And although the explosion for 3k wasn't needed (Mephala has the Cloak of Negation), the meat advantage was very large, the fireball went through almost in one turn.

Thanks for the game.

16.05.2013 Juristis (red, Conflux, random, Aenain, Alkin) def dom2 (blue, Fortress, Tazar) 127 Jebus Cross.
Used both restarts, opponent had 1 left. From the start, 1 road from 10-19 was blocked by bone dragons guarding a prison, the second road was inconvenient, going around the castle. Revealed several hives, but the guards were monks, griffins, archmagi. Overall, a high tempo is not expected.
First week ran around the respawn, cleared what I could, scouted. Found an external dwelling of phoenixes guarded by 50-99 monks in front of the Griffin Conservatory, left it for later. The Griffin Conservatory itself guarded by 20-49 red dragons. Cleared a shield +6 and an external dwelling of psychos, found 2 Griffin Conservatories.
On day 117 with 2 phoenixes started hitting hives. Got quite lucky with them, not a single minimal roll. On day 122 Alkin replenishes mana in the main, have 5 angels and 44 wyverns.
Day 123 - busted a triple Dragon Utopia, lost 1 wyvern, got a blue cap, necklace of grace, sword +6 and a crown +4+4. Sat again to replenish mana. Freed Astral from prison, level 20.
Day 124 - buffed Alkin before the Griffin Conservatory, ran with Astral to the 2nd Dragon Utopia.
Day 125 - max Dragon Utopia with Astral, 2 angels were eaten, gave almost the same stuff, another necklace, book of air, boots +15% resistance and armor 4-4. Then took 2 external dwellings of phoenixes, killed the Griffin Conservatory with the loss of 1 bird and sat in the central tower. There I poked the tavern, ran to scout, spotted a Dragon Utopia along the way, took 2 external dwellings of wyverns in the sands.
Day 126 - took a mini Dragon Utopia in the center (boots of levitation) and a max hive. On the return turn, blue flags appear, cutting off 1 of my heroes.
Day 127 - scout with vision, see that the central swamp is still gray, kill all of the opponent's heroes and take the town with Alkin. Tazar is nearby, standing on a hive. Scryed him, he has a red orb. Played with a chess clock, so there was time to think and properly prepare for the battle. Defeated Astral in the swamp, captured a gladius along the road, a prison with Andra level 10, used her to take a pandora's box for 20k experience, gloves, and a hive +8. Then returned the army to Alkin, attack:
Alkin: expert arm and offense (and archery, but there was no one to shoot), 25-21, 6 firebirds, 3 angels, 1+1+1+1+63 wyverns;
Tazar: expert arm and tactics, no offense apparently, 10-21, 10 angels, 1+1+1+12 monarchs, 32 regular wyverns, 4 hydras, +3 morale, +1 luck.
Despite a small misplay in round 1 and the opponent's luck with stats on the 10 angels and Tazar's lack of offense decided the match, the opponent bought his retreat with 3 angels and 1 hydra, I had 1 phoenix, 2 angels, and around 30 wyverns left. Then cut off another blue hero and the opponent decided not to drag it out. Thanks for the game!
