group "B" 01.07.2013 Lem (red, Stronghold, Crag Hack, Crag Hack) def Nestor86 (blue, Conflux, Labetha, Sir Mullich, Arlach) 2sm4d(3) 123.

111. Spread out to 4 heroes, saw a +4 speed hat, a Dragon Fly Hive with a Pandora's Box behind the oxen, lots of troops, 3 native heroes. Left 3600 and passed the turn.
112. Revealed the Griffin Conservatory. Built birds. There was a stable along the road. On one road there was a block of 50-99 archers, but luckily there were three other roads :)
113. Pulled +1+1 kneepads from a skeleton, a scout found two treasure banks and an external dwelling of birds, the Griffin Conservatory turned out to be rich.
114. Found an external dwelling of wolves and broke through with Crag into the castle. Upgraded the goblins. Have 32 wolf riders.
115. Upgraded the wolf riders, ran to the external dwelling of birds.
116. Realized I was desperately short on money and built a market. Took the external dwelling of birds and ran to the treasure bank.
117. The treasure bank turned out to be a triple. Afraid to take it. Collected a chest and a pile of gold. Didn't set up a castle because I wouldn't have enough money for recruitment. (the bears wouldn't even fit :( )
121. Recruited birds and wolves. Took the treasure bank (3), losing a lot of wolves. But in the tavern there's Tiraxor and there are still wolves from the external dwelling. Ran to the dungeon. 50-99 zombies.
122. Broke through the zombies, on the other side are nomads. Immediately spotted the Griffin Conservatory :)
123. Broke through a block of greater basilisks, losing 20 goblins by mistake. Revealed another Griffin Conservatory :) Captured the castle. Crag is level 8 with expert attack and air magic. Has logistics and pathfinding. Stats are 7 3 3 6. Overall satisfied with the setup.
But the opponent writes GG.

Thanks for the game.

PS yet again a sizable lake on the map...

Didn't take a single restart, and that was a mistake...

Please write the names correctly. There is no player named "sasha-amigo." There is a player named "amigo-sasha."

I sincerely apologize for the late reply. I got it mixed up!

I have a feeling half of the reports will be like this, if not more. :D

Group "A" 01.07.2013 Imsamstan (blue, Rampart, Ivor, ) def Gallicij (red, Fortress, Tazar) 2sm4d(3) 115.
Scouted with 6 heroes, checked a small respawn, 2 conservatories, one Trog's behind the halflings, the second behind the imps in the rear, didn't even get to check it. ГО almost right up to the castle, roads go upward, on one secondary 50+ archers couldn't break through, on the second 10+ upgraded Wasps (turned out to be only 12), broke through them to the Rampart secondary and took it. Returned to the respawn. Broke through to the underground past 70 gr. Kents, gave up the duck there. On the other side, 16 Crosses were standing. Lost the rest of the army on them, surrendered since asking for auto is not the way, this isn't a misclick but just a poor assessment of the guards, attacked where I shouldn't have.

Group "A" 30.06.2013 Imsamstan (blue, Rampart, Ivor) def Gallicij (red, Fortress, Tazar) 2sm4d(3) 115.
Scouted with 6 heroes, checked a small respawn, 2 cons – one troglodyte's near the halflings, the other's behind the imps in the rear, didn't even get to check it. ГО almost right next to the castle, roads leading upward. On one secondary, 50+ archers – couldn't break through; on the second, 10+ upgraded gremlins (turned out to be only 12) – broke through them to the Rampart secondary and took it. Returned to the respawn. Broke into the metro through 70+ gr. centaurs, gave up a duck there. On the other side, 16 crusaders were waiting. Wasted the rest of the army on them, surrendered because asking for auto isn't the topic; it's not a misclick, just a poor assessment of the guards – attacked where I shouldn't have.

Yes, I got very lucky here – my opponent got 3 cons, while by that point I had cleared out a bunch of crypts, taken a secondary, and was about to take another one, but then news of the surrender came. Thanks for the game!

group "C" 01.07.2013 RoninHW (red, Stronghold, Crag Hack, Crag Hack) def u2noob (blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) 2sm4d(3) 134.
Tough start with a small army. Immediately broke through to the swamp secondary. There I gathered just a few piles of gold and returned to clear the native respawn. Scouted 2 Griffin Conservatories, one of which was deep in the respawn, never took it. Built the Citadel + bears. The treasure zones were far away.
On the second week, broke through to another Necro-secondary. There was a goldmine with money buildings. If I had enough crystals, I would have upgraded the bears already by the second week. Gathering money, took the Tier-1 Griffin Conservatory and the Golden Bow.
On the third week, took the home Tier-3 Griffin Conservatory and broke into the swamp secondary to pick up the Flail and crystals there, check the University, and head down to the metro. But on 133, the Opp himself appears in this respawn via the metro. I bring the main army and attack.
FB:
Crag Hack: 12 6 3 4 (40) 4 Angels, 5 Wyverns, 4 Bears, 13 Griffins, 26+ Wolf Raiders, 12 Orcs, 22 Lizardmen
Shakti: 6 4 6 4 (22) 2 Angels, 13 Wyverns, 175 Troglodytes, 1 Hydra and a few Harpies.
A couple of rounds and the Opp surrenders.
Thanks for the game!

The opponent ran out of money. Otherwise, I had already collected both secondary armies by turn 117, acquired artifacts: a +3 sword and a +4 shield for 121, then a +6 sword for 10-19 pits, and went to the opponent through the secondary army, collecting consorts along the way. In the final, with roughly equal parameters, I won due to a more powerful army. Thanks for the game!

The opponent's lack of funds decided the outcome. Otherwise, I had already gathered both secondary armies by turn 117, bought the +3 sword and +4 shield artifacts on turn 121, then the +6 sword for 10-19 pits, and went to the opponent through the secondary army, gathering a consultant along the way. In the final, with roughly equal parameters, I won due to a more powerful army. Thanks for the game!

Yes, that's right. I didn't restart for some reason because of the two free monk lairs taken on turns 111-112, and the nearby swamp secondary (113). From the money, I only got 3 or 4 crypts and a dozen, including the secondary. In the first week, everything went relatively well, and the beginning of the second week was only marred by an impenetrable treasury. But somewhere around turns 124-125, the lack of money started to put a strain on things. I even managed to slightly outpace the opponent in stats by the final battle, but the lack of decent magic and the opponent's significant advantage in troops did their job.
Thanks for the game;)

We got fully looted. In the castle without air elementals, fortunately their external dwelling was right under the castle. I took a Tower secondary hero, and then my native secondary hero. I took a level 3 Griffin Conservatory and 4 minimal Dragon Fly Hives, rushed into the treasure zone and broke through 3 Dragon Utopias, got godly loot (Kettle, Sword of Justice, Sandals of the Saint, Tome of Water Magic, Speaker's Hat). A Golden Bow was found, which decided the outcome of the battle. I broke through ГО fairly quickly. Wyvern Monarchs 50-99. Captured the opponent's castle. Built the guild to level 5 and got Town Portal, Earth Elemental, searched for Armageddon for a long time, it was not found. Levelled up a strong mage, but the opponent found the Sphere of Permanence.
Thanks for the game.

I confirm. We got fully looted, played for luck, I split into five heroes, immediately had Lizardmen and a Dragon as the second hero, annoying blocks on the road, found Basilisk and Gnoll external dwellings, later a Dragon Fly Hive, took two Griffin Conservatories - a three and a two, captured secondary heroes late - both Dungeon, only on the fourth week did I clear the treasure zone, five Dragon Fly Hives (almost all min), Red Orb and Titan's Cuirass, and never found a single Dragon Utopia, recaptured the castle, the opponent's parameters were twice as high before the final battle, I put on the Red Orb, 53 Wyvern Monks and 4 Angels could not defend the castle against the enemy's larger army, the Golden Bow helped the opponent, although he didn't seem to expect a fight without magic.
Thanks for the game.

And a question about the playoffs, how will the draw be conducted? Will players from the same group be separated into different parts of the bracket, or will there be a general draw for all who qualified?

Yes, of course, we will try to separate them.
However, at the beginning of the group stage, it is never possible to say with 100% certainty what will happen by the end. What if one of the groups completely disappears? Then, in the playoffs, we will take players from other groups, and it will not be possible to separate them until the final.

I have updated the information on the qualifying games and groups.

Attention! Groups D, G, F! You have determined the fifth player.
And what is happening in the remaining three pairs of qualifying games?
oji vs Frol off
sOrcerror vs RaiseTheDead
Karvet vs -A-

In three groups, there are no results yet, wake up and play!

And we already have a player who has scored 3 points, and two with 2 points. It's time for the promised surprise.

Surprise.

We offer the best newcomers in this tournament to compete against our top players. We've never done anything like this before, but if it works out, we will continue it in the future.
This will take the form of a team tournament – a team of newcomers – New Players (abbreviated as NP) versus a team called Legends and Myths (abbreviated as LM).

In the team format, every result will be important for both teams.
It is no secret that the level of newcomers has increased significantly thanks to broadcasts and the abundance of information available. Therefore, I personally am not sure about the total superiority of our veterans and I won’t venture to predict the overall outcome of the competition.

The main thing is that newcomers are given the opportunity to test their skills against the pros, feel like part of a team, and... possibly improve their position in the group.

How are the teams formed?

New Players. A newcomer who scores 2 points during the group stage automatically joins the team. So far, there are already 3 players on this team: Iamsamstan, cuc9ctblu, The_. And the team will grow throughout the tournament and will consist of approximately 20-25 players.

Legends and Myths. Here, the roster will be "flexible"; players who have the opportunity to play in July will participate in the team. Each player will submit a list of templates they are willing to play with NP.
Currently, the following players are joining the Legends and Myths team:
=Stinger= - multiple winner of everything...
numOne - Newcomer from 2009, winner and prize-winner of our tournaments, including FB...
GoD - Winner of the last Favorites tournament...
twaryna - Newcomer from 2012, winner of the Newcomer-Summer12 tournament, prize-winner of Favorites-5; many players came to us after watching his broadcasts...
The list will be updated.

What should a newcomer do?

1. Score 2 points during the group stage. After that, he automatically joins the New Players team.
2. Choose one player from the Legends and Myths list, contact this player, agree on a game, and play. If it is not possible to arrange a game, NP can choose another player from the LM list. But he can only play once!
3. Write a report on the forum and receive a bonus in case of victory.

What are the rules of the game?

NP chooses a template from the list offered by LM, on which he wants to play. NP chooses the color they want to play with. If NP chooses blue, then they start destroying castles; if red, then LM starts destroying castles.
The rules are standard for this tournament – new season rules, restarts total 3 days.

How will the results be counted?

Players on the NP team will have double scoring. Personal result - in the group stage table; in case of victory over an LM player, 1.5 points will be added, in case of a draw - 1 point.
In the framework of the team tournament, 1 point is awarded to the team for winning a match, both teams get 0.5 points for a draw, and 0 points for a loss.

All current information about this mini-tournament will be at the beginning of the topic. There, NP players can find a list of those LM players who are ready to play at that moment.

So, time has begun!

New Players vs Legends and Myths - 0 - 0.
