Good respawn, plenty of money, native second town, one consulate, home Dragon Utopia, flask +2hp. Horses in the citadel, dragons in the second Castle. I planned to hit two Dragon Utopias, both doubles, but a surrender message arrived; they also had a good start, but the treasure zone was unforgiving, birds pecked me to death for the earth book.

Thanks for the game!

I confirm, I messed up by attacking the offspring, losing

21.08.2013 Akella (red, rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) def RaiseTheDead (blue, fortress, Tazar, Tazar) 8mm6a 113.

I played as if on autopilot. I immediately went to visit the computer. I didn't even pay attention to the starting hero, and that was a mistake. The miner on native soil wiped out my entire army — both the duck-billed critters, and the lizards, and the gnolls.

24.08.2013 Akella (red, conflux, random Aenain, Aislinn) lose RaiseTheDead (blue, castle, Caitlin, Dace) 8mm6a 125.

I found a quick passage to my opponent. It was hard to miss, since the generator was stingy with roads. As for my army, I had 3 angels from two conservatories, 5 cavalry, and about 60 archers. My opponent had 5 birds, 23 air elementals, and a hundred skeletons. Aislinn's mana was only enough for one slow, and on top of that, the birds got anti-morale in the first round. No real chance, in my opinion.

26.08.2013 Akella (red, rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) lose RaiseTheDead (blue, necropolis, Galthran, Galthran) Jebus Cross 127.

I got a very good start. Within sight there were 6 Dragon Fly Hives, 2 conservatories, 2 external dwellings for cavalry, 2 libraries, a shield giving +3 attack and defense, two artifacts giving +1 to speed. The main difficulty was not knowing what to tackle first — the hives were either max or near-max, conservatories were levels 3-4. Before leaving, I took 4 hives, a level 4 conservatory, both external cavalry dwellings, all the useful artifacts, and visited one library. I also made one serious mistake. I overcomplicated the chains — I had to buy two more heroes to make everything click. As a result, I had no money left to split up for Galthran. A whole day wasted, and because of that I couldn't grab the second conservatory, more hives, or visit another library. In the end, I went out on day 123 with 31 ducks, 4 angels, 15 grand cavaliers, and two hundred skeletons. I was very lucky that my opponent wasn't in a hurry and only broke through the ГО on day 126. By then, the entire center had naturally been cleared.

Thank you for the games!

Took a long time to decide whether it was worth dragging the Dragon Utopia at the start of the 3rd week. Eventually went for it and it paid off. The Burattinos die, 8 dragons, and almost a hundred Centaurs, but no Captain’s Hat, though we have all the Earth magic, so we live.
By the end of the week the opp came running, and we had a fight.

Thanks for the game

I took a long time deciding whether it was worth taking the Dragon Utopia at the start of week 3. I went for it anyway and it paid off. The Wood Elves died, 8 dragons and almost a hundred Centaurs, but no Captain's Hat, but at least I have all the earth magic, so we live.
By the end of the week the opponent showed up, and we had a fight.

Thanks for the game

But Javdet had no Captain's Hat, while I got it from the Dragon Utopia along with a purse giving +750 gold, a book of fire magic (even though all fire spells were already known). In Fortress there was no chance. Thanks for the game

Stressfull game since I realized late that opponent had made mistake with chess timer and set battles to 1 min. I broke at 123 but didnt have road to center of the desert, so was somewhat delayed. Anyhow I beat him in the end after he surrendered with full army 3 times. I had better stats, but was slow. Didnt have any speed for most of the game on marius, but got log as 8th skill from university. I managed to aply the pressure with good scouts and took 5 out of 6 topes in my area. Thanks for playing.

Slow roads, starting with Kyrre, under the castle an external dwelling of unicorns for 10-19 horses. Took the max crypt, broke through to 2 adjacent zones, received news of the surrender. Thanks for the game!

25.08.2013 Juristis (blue, random, Tower, Tan, Marius) def NumOne (red, random, Fortress, Styg, Crag Hack) 2sm4d(3) 211
Average roads, both heroes without gargoyles, had to recruit them on day 111. Favorable layout, Dragon brought 51 gnolls, immediately an external dwelling of gremlins, shield +3, cloak 2-2, lots of gold, external blacksmith, Dwarf Cottage, crypt. Decided to level Marius, she picked up Logistics at level 2, Earth at level 4. On day 114, with a cart from the external blacksmith, easily took the Dwarf Cottage 20-stack. The only downside of the surrender - only 2 roads, to ГО and to the underground, behind the gold golems. Went into the underground, took a mini-Dwarf Cottage, beat some treasure chests. On day 117, a scout hero finds in a corner of the respawn an external dwelling of nagas behind trees and a Dragon Fly Hive right next to it behind a gr of pegasi. Managed to transfer the army, take the nagas, they are in the Citadel at home.
Cleared the underground respawn on the second week, took a necropolis town there. At home, took the Dragon Fly Hive for 6 Wyverns. Upgraded golems, nagas, gargoyles, built GM2, captured the Sphere of Water and went cross-country to the Inferno adjacent zone. There turned out to be a fast passage to the opponent. On days 126-127, ran to his respawn, there was a library. Picked up Ballistics along the way. An external dwelling of behemoths visible. Crag's stats slightly higher than mine. My army - 10 gr nagas, 15 gr golems, about 150 gremlins, 6 mages, 6 Wyverns.
131 - 1 FB: Crag runs over, grabs the library and attacks me. About 50 gr lizards, single gr flies, 13 gr cows, 10 Wyverns. Deploys with Tactics and with Mass Haste charges into me. 3 rounds we play haste-slow, then the opponent runs out of mana. Ice Bolt for 195 and archers for 135 allow me to win the fight, I have 2 mages and 5 gremlins left, opponent surrenders on 15 lizards. Then Rosic attacks me with the same lizards and a couple of flies, the mages fall to Ice Bolt, but a volley from the lizards kills only 3 gremlins, and after a return archer shot into the lizards I surrender, the trade turned out completely zero-sum.
Then exchanged some resources, bought nagas and gremlins, broke a naga bank, a Dwarf Cottage, got a couple of artifacts and went into the treasure zone on the underground lava. The treasure zone turned out to be of mediocre quality, took a Griffin Conservatory for 3 angels, 2 hives (4+6), a prison with Anya level 20, a gold mine, a couple of Pandora's Boxes for experience (leveled up Tactics and Wisdom, they never gave me Attack until the end of the game), a Vial of +2 HP (already had one of the rings) and Shackles of War. Oh, and scrolls of Implosion and Resurrection, because of which I started building the guild. It finished building already on week 4 and turned out to be simply amazing, Resurrection, Meteor Shower and Dimension Door. Resigned, learned this stuff, took growth, replenished mana and Dimension Doored right into the center of the last treasure zone, the swamp one. No Pathfinding, no Fly, so it was hard to move around. Plus, Crag ran into the same treasure zone from the other side. But I got lucky here, first took 3 hives for a total of 18 Wyverns, and then a Dragon Utopia with Angel Wings, Gauntlets and the Book of Earth.
211 - after the announcement of the Plague Month, with Wings and Shackles I catch up to Crag in the corner of the treasure zone. He has 28 monarchs, a group of behemoths and a snake, as well as the Cloak of Disavowment. And 14 mana. I have about 40 mana, an army of 3 angels, 150 gremlins, a group of mages, 12 gr nagas, 28 Wyverns, 18 sharpshooters. The Shackles left no chance. Thanks for the game!

There's nothing to describe - I went to the center with 1 angel, 26 ducks, 3 grays, and some minor units. I had Mass Haste and full mana. The next day, I saw the Miner - his army consisted only of ducks and single pixie units, and he had no mana... I attacked - Mass Haste, onslaught, and GG.
Thanks for the game.

Large respawn with 6 Griffin Conservatories, 3 external Hydra dwellings, several smaller external dwellings, a couple of Pandora's Boxes and 4 Dragon Fly Hives (later found 2 more). The downsides were 2 — a weak starting army (Wystan came with 8 Lizardmen) and the absence of Dragon Utopias. First moves I scouted, took the Dungeon secondary skills, but there was little gold, so I didn't build portals. I took external dwellings of Lizardmen and Gnolls.
On turn 114 I started fighting, by the end of the week I built Hydras in the fort, took 2 of their external dwellings, a couple of Pandora's Boxes for 5k experience (Attack, Earth Magic, Logistics, Pathfinding), 2 mini-Griffin Conservatories and 2 Dragon Fly Hives (4+12).
At the start of the second week I took another 2 Griffin Conservatories (3+2) and 2 Dragon Fly Hives (size I no longer remember). On turn 123 I break through on the run, first 100+ Pikemen without oil, then 15 Titans already with oil (-several Wyverns). In the treasure zone — a Shield +6 and a Pandora's Box for experience behind Champions, as well as a Green level 10 with expert Air Magic, Earth Magic and Logistics.
Turn 124 — I take the central Castle, Tower treasure zone, the opponent also has 4 towns, so he took the Tower with scouting. I see a Dragon Utopia in the sands, there's no meat, but I go in, Tazar is a god and loses only 1 Wyvern. They give Wings and a Shield +4 to all. Immediately a mini-Dragon Fly Hive.
Turn 125 — I saw a Dragon Utopia at the opponent's on the respawn, but decided it was taken, so I didn't fly to it (and I was wrong). I took a Gladius, flew for the Library in part of the opponent's treasure zone and returned. I was left with Taz in the Vambraces on 7 units of Angels, the army returned home to pick up 2 Dragon Fly Hives and a double Griffin Conservatory.
Turn 125 blue — Galthran with Control and Shackles kills Tazar. The army is rather weak. We don't give up.
Turn 126 — Into Gunnar's folders, level 3 with Armor. Mary with expert Scouting reveals a Sword +5 in the corner of the sands. Wyvern upgrade. Galthran sits in my Castle.
Turn 127 — I take the Sword of Justice, immediately behind it there is a Artifact Stand + a Dragon Utopia for 10-19 Angels. I go in for the Angels, lose 1 of my own, then into the Dragon Utopia also without meat (-1 Hydra). In the Dragon Utopia 20k and another Lion's Shield of Courage. Stats are already over 20, but I have no magic, nothing special to counter Gocha's 29 spell power.
Turn 127 blue — Hell takes my main.
Turn 131 — I kill Gunya with ГО from Cyclopes on a neutral Swamp respawn, take a Rampart village there, with Ignatius from the tavern I take a maxi-Griffin Conservatory in the sands. I boost Gunya, army — 40 Monarches, 7 Hydras and 5 Angels.
Turn 132 — I see the opponent's army on a decoy, I take back my main and the central Castle, I smash Gunya in the Castle and bring out Gervulf with full force. As it turned out, on the previous turn Galthran was defeated in the Vambraces. Thanks for the game!

24.08.2013 Akella (red, conflux, random Aenain, Aislinn) lose RaiseTheDead (blue, castle, Caitlin, Dace) 8mm6a 125.

Found a fast passage to the opponent. It was hard to miss, since the generator was stingy with roads. In terms of army, I had 3 Angels from two Conservatories, 5 Cavaliers, and roughly 60 Archers. The opponent had 5 Birds, 23 Air Elementals, and a hundred Skeletons. Aislinn's mana was only enough for one Shield (Oil), and on top of that, the Birds got Anti-Morale in the first round. Without much of a chance, in my opinion.

26.08.2013 Akella (red, rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) lose RaiseTheDead (blue, necropolis, Galthran, Galthran) Jebus Cross 127.

The spawn was very generous. Within vision range there were 6 Dragon Fly Hives, 2 Conservatories, 2 external dwellings for Cavaliers, 2 Libraries, a Shield granting +3 Attack and Defense, two artifacts giving +1 to Speed. The main difficulty was not knowing what to approach first – the Hives were either max or near-max, the Conservatories were third or fourth level. Before the final push I took 4 Hives, a level-4 Conservatory, both external Cavalier dwellings, all the useful artifacts, and visited one Library. I also made one serious mistake. I overcomplicated the chains – I had to hire 2 more heroes to make everything work out. As a result, I had no gold left to fight Galthran. A whole day wasted, and because of that, I couldn't pick up the second Conservatory, another Hive, and visit another Library. In the end, the final push came on day 123 with 31 Dragon Flies, 4 Angels, 15 Grand Cavaliers, and two hundred Skeletons. I was very lucky that the opponent wasn't in a hurry and only broke through the Main Town only on day 126. The entire center was, of course, already cleared.

Thanks for the games!

I confirm all games.

Thanks for the game.

Why did it take so long, you may ask, given that it was possible to reach each other without going through the ГО? Well, it's simple — the Griffin Conservatory turned out to be a level 4, and even with a double on 121, 12346 in the Citadel and 12346 in the Fort couldn't kill it... I headed to the treasure zone where it connected with the opponent's treasure zone — as a result, we split up, and I went into the snow treasure zone taking my time with the game since the double was paying off, and shakti was perfectly leveled with Offense, Tactics, Earth, Logistics, Wisdom, Archery, Defense, Air. After devouring the huge snow treasure zone and having armadas of army (taking the Dragon Utopia, by the way), I returned and took the opponent's main castle in 2 turns on week 4. He went into another treasure zone at that time, and I discovered another Dragon Utopia in the very snow 2-3 turns away — I decided to return since I was stronger in magic stats, but I had nothing except Chain Lightning and Ice Bolt, and besides, the opponent had all the Earth with Town Portal. As a result, the Dragon Utopia gave me royally: Armor +4+4, Armor +10 Attack (which brought my Attack to 26), and КЗ... After that, the game ended in 2 turns.
shakti 20-15 - 26 (230) vs Tamika 21 - 13 -9 -(95)
shakti's army: 200 halberdiers (greased?), 177 archers, 11 angels, 34 champions, 77 crusaders, 89 griffins, 35 wyverns
Opponent's army: 600 skeletons, 66 wyverns, 1 angel, 9 liches, 6 death knights, and 1 faerie dragon with 15 trolls
I don't know why there were so few skeletons ;( I immediately hit the wyverns with Implosion for 3300 — about -44 wyverns :) (by the way, the opponent had the Cloak of Undead King but didn't equip it because he was 2 turns away from his main along the road and didn't know I had Town Portal to the town, with which I reached him from 3500 movement points)
thanks for the game

We agreed - 2 days for rest. It spawned a castle on a barbarian, 2 roads (ГО and vampires in the basement) and nothing special it seems, but decided to play because of Tamika. On 112 I break through the vampires, and there are grand elves - rest, what to do.
Then it spawned completely unplayable: basement, 2 roads, Ash with 12 imps, gogs not built, no money, nothing, decided not to drag it out.

Now this game was more interesting. Rich respawn, with an external dwelling of lizards, cows, and gnolls, 4 roads, though one is immediately blocked by elves for a pandora and resources, I run to the lava, break through the golems, and there's an immediate block of grand cows, which can supposedly be bypassed, but I need to hit the hobbits - there are 60 of them in one stack, they instantly get morale and take out 7 of my lizards, also hit my gnolls a bit. I look - and further there's an immediate block of ghost dragons - a turnoff. I run to the last secondary, and there thank god I broke through without issues and colored Conflux.
On the second week I take a mini hive, beat the elves and the pandora for entire 1st level, there's inferno in the basement and some tier-upgraders. Where to go next is unclear, 3 or 4 forks into the darkness, I decide to break into Conflux (there's a stable and a descent to the treasure zone nearby), meanwhile upgrading the cows, thankfully I had enough money. I entered the treasure zone, and there's absolutely nothing - 12 grand necromancers for a sphere of earth, further grand liches for resources and a prison, a crystal mine, a hive, a dead end requiring a keymaster, and a gold mine - which I crash into because the opponent arrived.
131 - I can't buy troops for an attack, I take what I have, only about 17 mana, visit the library and the fight. Thanks to magi and a sphere of water the opponent manages to outshoot me by the skin of their teeth. I ransom, then attack with a scout hero: 2 grand flies and 15 grand lizards weren't enough to kill 5 gremlins :), that could have been the end of it.
Then running around, another treasure zone on the sand (thankfully there's pass-fight), though quite inconvenient, a couple of hives (almost all were mini hives), cloak of desertion, then some narrow passage again, but Dragon Utopias are visible, I go. There, right along the map edge, a block of 38 sultans for a sword +3 and a medal of forgetfulness - they roughed me up good, can't enter the Dragon Utopias anymore, I take 2 more hives and crash. Got upset.
Finally took a secondary inferno and go into the swamp treasure zone, where I get caught by the opponent with shackles. That's about it.

Thanks for the game.

Why did it take so long, you ask, considering we could have reached each other without going through the Global Order? It's simple: the opponent had a fourth town, and even with double 12346 in the Citadel and 12346 in the Fortress, I couldn't kill him on level 121. So, I headed to the Treasury, where it connected with another Treasury. As a result, we scattered, and I slowly advanced towards the Snowy Treasury, as the double town was yielding its benefits, and Shakti was perfectly upgraded with Offense, Tactics, Earth, Logistics, Wisdom, Shooting, Defense, and Air. After consuming a huge Snowy Treasury and having armies of armies (including a Utopia, by the way), I returned and took his main Castle in 2 turns on the 4th week. He went to another Treasury at that time, and I discovered another Utopia in the snow in 2-3 turns – I decided to return because I was stronger in magical stats, and he only had Chain Lightning and Ice Bolt. Also, the opponent had all his Earth magic with Teleport. As a result, in the Utopia, I got a royal boost: armor +4+4, armor +10 strength (which brought my strength to 26), and Knowledge. After that, the game ended in 2 turns.
Shakti 20-15 - 26 (230) vs Tamika 21 - 13 - 9 -(95)
Shakti's army: 200 upgraded halberdiers, 177 archers, 11 angels, 34 champions, 77 crusaders, 89 griffins, 35 vivs
Opponent's army: 600 skeletons, 66 vivs, 1 angel, 9 liches, 6 death knights, and 1 mythical dragon with 15 trolls
I don't know why there were so few skeletons ;( I immediately attacked his vivs with Implosion for 3300 - 44 vivs or so :) (by the way, the opponent had a Cloak of Resistance, but he didn't wear it because he was standing 2 turns away from his main town on the road and didn't know that I had Teleport to the town, and I reached him with 3500 movement points).
Thanks for the game.

Yes. I underestimated the power of two Castles, and as a result, I ended up chasing him, and he also didn't learn to make skeletons, not a single Utopia, but a lot of Hives. If I had attacked earlier, we might have had a different outcome.
Thanks for the game.
