10.10.2013 JustObserver (red, random, Inferno, Pyre, Dees) def Pent (blue, random, Castle, Edric, Valeska) 2sm4d(3) 141

Two native heroes in the tavern, a prison with Calh spawns at the entrance, Dees, a Hive and a Griffin Conservatory, a native secondary hero, a Shield +5.

On the first day, everything was great with money; I built 1k homes and a Castle in the secondary. I built positions 1-4,6 in the Castle; the Hive and Griffin Conservatory were also scouted; Dees was almost fully developed.

On the second day, I started demon farming and collecting goodies; in the end, I found 2 more Hives in the farthest and darkest corner of the Castle spawn; I picked them up on the third day — total I got 7 Angels and 16 Ducks; I built Efreeti in the native secondary.

On day 136, Valeska showed up at my doorstep and took up position near the main after a speed run, but I couldn't ferry the troops; in the end, Dees, who was recruited in the secondary, was stuck on one side of the Castle, while the troops were on the other side; Valeska took the Castle almost without a problem, guarded by what I hadn't managed to ferry over (3 Efreeti, 25 Hounds, 7 Pits, 8 Demons), and stayed there. On day 137, I was exactly one hex short to attack, but I did block their exit from the Castle, so on day 141, I got a full Fly.

Valeska (8, 11, 6, (30))
Dees (8, 12, 5, (22))

Valeska's main strike force was 70 Archers and 8 Champions, but against fully developed stats, 7 Angels, 16 Ducks, 10 Efreeti, and fifty Demons, she couldn't do anything. Thanks for the game!

Looked good day 1, but the best part of the map was block by lots dendroids, which made me slow. Week 2 I found necro boots and some hives and a con, but we had exits right next to each other and opponent broke at 123 and I had throng cyclops and throng t-birds as block, so it didnt look good. I saw a tope and went for it. It was full and gave air book. I had used another necro and when he got exp slow I took out the t-birds with him and flew into the desert somewhere else with gosha. Opponent had been forced to turn around so I found boots, recanters, red orb, red cape and earth book untaken in the desert. I went to dung area to make some more skells and when he showed in middle I could attack and win easily with 1300 skells with speed 8. Thanks for playing.

Confirmed. I didn't play very well in the restarts. In the end, the morale golems shot down the gremlins, and the morale gargoyles also gained morale in the first round and blocked the archers. Well, maybe it's for the best; I suffered through it quickly because it seems like there was a strong player on the other side. Thank you for your time.

I hope there will be a prize for the shortest full-length game?:D

Opp took all the rest, then I was 2 on 111
It dealt Stronghold vs Castle, I had 2 native in the tavern, 12 orcs from the start
Stables under the castle
I run along the explored road to break through to the subway, the subway guard blocked the road leading further. Gunnar dove into the subway, I sent the scout hero further down the road. Saw a castle, first thought it was neutral, took a closer look — whoa, blue! Rushed toward it without even breaking the lower subway guard, hoping to reach it, but didn't make it. Well, ok, I dismiss my 2 scout heroes so the opp wouldn't level up on them for free.
112 I kill the blue scout, take a crypt, level up expert ballista, bring more orcs from the castle, on my turn the opp attacks with a mage, I thought magic arrows would start flying, but it turned out there wasn't even Haste there, and it would have helped I think.

opp took all the rests, then I got 2 on 111
drew Stronghold vs Castle, I had 2 native in the tavern, 12 orcs from the start
stable under the castle
I run along the scouted road to break through the path to the subway, the subway guard blocked the road leading further. Gunni dove into the subway, I sent the scout hero further along the road. I saw a castle, initially thought it was neutral, took a closer look — whoa, it's blue! I rushed towards it without even breaking the lower subway guard, hoping to make it, but I didn't. Well okay then, I fire my two scout heroes so opp doesn't level up on them for free.
On 112 I take out the blue scout hero, grab the crypt, level up to Expert Ballista, bring more orcs from the castle, on my turn opp attacks with the mage, I think here come the magic arrows, but it turned out there wasn't even Haste, and that would have helped, I think.
Thanks for the game

Confirmed. Getting the turn on day 1, I was very surprised that opp was standing near the castle with a starting army, and this army was clearly stronger than my rabble. I built the Citadel, thinking maybe I could hold out somehow, but on 112 he didn't attack. So on 112 I built the Mage Guild hoping for Magic Arrow or Haste, but there was nothing there at all, such incredible bad luck...

08.10.2013 HellLighT(Red, Dungeon, Gunnar) def BaJleHoK(Blue, Fortress, Rosic, Gurnison) Jebus cross 126

After yet another restart, I get a Dungeon with Gunnar. Immediately scout a Dragon Fly Hive, a Dragon Utopia, a Pandora's Box with 100 stone gargoyles (which I never took), a lot of gold, great layout. Both villages turned out to be Castle! The idea of Archers immediately comes to mind, since there's plenty of gold, and I've already scouted 3 Griffin Conservatories! One of them near the external tavern turned out to be a singleton. I immediately find an external dragon dwelling! Though guarded by a rather unpleasant stack of 10+ Minotaurs, which turned out to be 18... Thanks to a couple of artifacts, Gunnar had decent stats + I got Offense and Basic Defense. In general, it was a close call in the dwelling itself — any morale and it's a wipe, but I miraculously got out with 20 Troglodytes. I immediately portal another red hero, take the Griffin Conservatory (1), clear 2 mini Dragon Fly Hives with Loaches, run to the upper Griffin Conservatory near the well. Gunnar got Basic Earth Magic. I check the Conservatory 3-4, position Gunnar near it on 117, contemplating. Unfortunately, the Angels didn't get built due to resource issues. I decide to take the Conservatory with growth anyway. Stats: 10 9, 1 Angel, 8 Wyverns, 3 Crystal Dragons, 50 Troglodytes, 10 Evil Eyes, 8 Medusas, and singleton Harpies. And the Conservatory turned out to be max! I got out with a Dragon, 6 Wyverns, and an Angel. Chain to the third Conservatory + along the way I pick up another Shield +3+3 and a Necklace +3+3 Morale/Luck. Conservatory — minimum. Gunnar fights near the Castle next to the Stables, learns Slow there (Earth Magic is only Advanced, but the Rust Dragons are still no good). Not enough troops for the Dragon Utopia, so I head straight for the Rust Dragons. I only leave on 123. Luckily, there were only 3 Rust Dragons. Next, Specters drop for the Dragon Fly Hive, +5 SP, a Pendant, and a Scout's Lantern, which immediately gave me a great view: a Conservatory with a useless artifact and resources behind Brown Bears, an external Market, an external Gold Dragons dwelling, and a bit higher above the road — Wings behind Liches!! I immediately grab a nearby Box behind Wasp Worms, even without Slow, and there are 15 Gold Dragons! Conservatory — singleton, Dragon Fly Hive — singleton too, +3 Gold Dragons from the dwelling. I cleared the external Market but didn't look inside. Next turn, I see movement to my left on the view chain, meaning the opponent is also already in the center. I take the Wings, a Pandora's Box with gold (which I immediately spend on Bracers at the market), and sit in the central Fortress town. With Wings and acceptable losses, I clear the Speaker's Hat behind Devils with Roaches, +4 All and +2 Speed behind Trolls. A Dragon Utopia nearby, but I don't have time for it. I sit waiting with 55 mana and Implosion at 1250. On his turn, the opponent clears a chest on his side and on his last moves eats the Dragon Utopia, sharply increasing his stats. He disperses my troops. On my turn, a check of the opponent shows 71 mana, and troops consisting of 4 Angels and 30 Monks + their singletons. The second level was accessible, but with my ten Wyverns and 6 Angels against stats 1.5 times higher, attacking was foolish. I scout another Dragon Utopia nearby but a bit to the left, a Dragon Utopia behind the central town, and another one higher up the road. But I start my turn (which lasted about 30-40 minutes of burned timer :D) through a Prison below, a Pandora's Box for experience, a Dragon Fly Hive, a Pandora's Box for gold. I return to my main hero, decided not to leave anything behind, took another Dragon Fly Hive along the path, and headed into the Dragon Utopia on the left. It turned out to be a double. The Minotaurs bit me, and it was a tough fight but bearable. It gave a Kill Steal artifact and +5 All!!! A royal reward! Immediately Dimension Door to the second Dragon Utopia — a triple there. Didn't take it right away; ran with a prepared hero Nela further up the road. A Dragon Fly Hive candle with a Kill Steal artifact and a Pandora's Box with 50+ Necro Horses. Higher up, another Dragon Fly Hive, a Prison with a Pandora's Box. A serious Jabarkas comes out of the Prison. In the Pandora's Box, it seems to be gold again (or experience). I take a nearby Hydra dwelling and attack the Horses — there are about 80 of them with a Ghostly Stacks ability. It hurt. I lost an Angel, about 5 Wyverns, a couple of Minotaurs, and some meat from the Toad. In the Pandora's Box — experience. But the Dragon Fly Hive was max! Dimension Door to my main hero and into the Dragon Utopia. Thanks to moral and luck, I only lost 2 Minotaurs. It gave +3 All, Boots of Resistance, and something else... I jump into the Castle, build Angels there, and place as many heroes as possible around the central Fortress to take it back. One of them was Brissa, who recaptured it on the next turn. Upgrade Archers, Town Portal to the center, and chase the opponent who jumped to the Dragon Utopia behind the central town. I put on the Bracers. 7 Archers, 34 Wyverns + miscellaneous. Stats 20+. He had an Orb and the same troops. An unsuccessful attempt to buy him off, followed by surrender. Thanks for the game

Group B, Pirates - Scoundrels Game 1
10.10.2013 Stryfe (red, rnd, Conflux, Thunar, Vokial) def JustObserver (blue, rnd, Luna, Tyraxor), Mininostalgia, 142
I took 2 restarts, the opponent none - and I got a triple-flux with a ramp, while my opponent got a flux, dungeon, necro and inferno. Near the town there were stables immediately, an external marketplace, I see the GO and decent roads to the computers. On the first week I kill the computers, take a griffin conservatory single with Ciele and build the birds house in the fort. On the second week I take the street on 8, speed gloves and Vokial goes into the treasure zone, where he collects the street on 12, boxes for 20 vampires, 35 ghosts, 2x15k gold and releases Straker and Galtran (both level 10) from prisons. Galtran takes an experience Pandora's Box and levels up wisdom, earth magic, and tactics. Meanwhile, Ciele runs to another treasure zone, takes a Pandora's Box for 15k gold for djinn there, but hits a block of 100+ fire elementals that she can't break through. In terms of building: houses - birds in the citadel and similarly in one of the secondary towns. In the tower village I built a mage guild level 4, which gave Town Portal and Chain Lightning. On day 131 I take Dragon Utopia 3 with Vokial (black orb, titan's helmet and shield, speed cape)...on day 132 - another Dragon Utopia (angel wings and a charm +3+3 morale/luck). On day 133 I hit the GO of hydras and faerie dragons and enter the central treasure zone. There I take Pandora's Boxes for 2x35 fire elementals, a couple of imp stat reductions for skeletons, and a magic level 5 hat + I visit the green keymaster's tent, behind which there is a Dragon Utopia, which I take with Galtran (it gives a sword +5 all and titan's armor). Then in the center there are a couple more hives and I jump from there into an unclaimed town in the opponent's zone (dungeon), there I take boots +2 all and double my mana. I build Mage Guild level 5 in the tavern and it gives Dimension Door and Fly! The next day Tyraxor shows up, I attack (he has a red orb and roughly equal stats, but I have +3 speed and more meat), I kill several stacks and he buys peace, and on the same turn I kill the upgraded Luna and cast Town Portal home. Then the 4th week begins...I buy up the growth (I got 17 birds, about 50 stacks, 90 fire elementals, around 1000 skeletons and small stuff) and on day 142 it's the finals in the central treasure zone, where Tyraxor surrenders after round 1!
Thanks for the game!

I took 2 restarts, my opponent none - and I got a triple-flux with ramp, while my opponent got flux, dungeon, necro, and inferno. Under the town immediately stables, external market, I see ГО and decent roads to the comps. In the first week, I kill the comps, take a single griffin conservatory with Ciele and build birds in the fort. In the second week, I take artifacts for 8, gloves of speed, and Vokial goes into the treasure zone, where he collects artifacts for 12, boxes for 20 vampires, 35 ghosts, 2x15k gold, and releases Straker and Galtran from prisons (both level 10). Galtran takes an experience pandora and levels up wisdom, earth, and tactics. Meanwhile, Ciele runs to another treasure zone, takes a pandora for 15k gold for djinns there, but hits a block of 100+ fire elementals that she can't break. Regarding building: birds in the citadel and similarly in one of the secondary towns. In the tower village, I built mage guild-4, which gave town portal and chain lightning. On 131, I take a Dragon Utopia-3 with Vokial (blackshard, helm and shield of the titan, speed cloak)...on 132 - another Dragon Utopia (angel wings and charm +3+3 morale/luck). On 133, I hit the ГО from group of hydras and fairy dragons and enter the central treasure zone. There I take pandoras 2x35 fire elementals, a couple of imp altars for skeletons, and a cap for level 5 magic + I visit the green keymaster tent, behind which is a Dragon Utopia, which I take with Galtran (they give sword +5 all and titan's armor). Then in the center a couple more hives and I jump from there into an uncaptured village in the opponent's zone (dungeon), there I take boots +2 all and double my mana. In the tavern, I build mage guild-5 and they give dimension door and fly! The next day, Tyraxor shows up, I attack (he has the red orb and stats are roughly equal, but I have +3 speed and more troops), I kill several ducks and he buys himself out, and on the same turn I kill the leveled Luna and town portal home. Then the 4th week begins...I buy up the growth (ended up with 17 birds, nearly 50 ducks, 90 fire elementals, about 1000 skeletons and misc) and on 142 the finale again in the central treasure zone, where Tyraxor surrenders after round 1!
Thanks for the game!

Probably should have reested the two native comps, but I couldn't resist seeing Luna, 3 hives, a griffin conservatory, and +1 speed behind easy guards right along the road to the dungeon, which I eventually built up to a castle with a manticore portal, too bad the guys didn't survive until the finale... In the farthest and darkest corner of the swamp treasure zone, I got a book of air in the second week and ran with it and a mana well, but somehow it wasn't effective. Thanks for the game.

Looked good day 1, but the best part of the map was blocked by lots of dendroids, which made me slow. Week 2 I found necro boots and some hives and a con, but we had exits right next to each other and the opponent broke at 123, and I had a throng of cyclops and a throng of t-birds as a block, so it didn't look good. I saw a tope and went for it. It was full and gave an air book. I had used another necro, and when he got slow experience, I took out the t-birds with him and flew into the desert somewhere else with gosha. The opponent had been forced to turn around, so I found boots, recanters, a red orb, a red cape, and an earth book untaken in the desert. I went to the dung area to make some more skeletons, and when he showed up in the middle, I could attack and win easily with 1300 skeletons with speed 8. Thanks for playing.

Confirmed. He gave up the tower, but I got the Moon spell - thanks to it, I was able to expand throughout the first week. There weren't any useful caches, but there were hives, although they were off-road. The Moon spell could have broken through the Guardian of Order on the first week, but it wouldn't have helped - I still couldn't break through further - in the center, there were blocks of fairies, which could be bypassed off-road, but then there were 100+ snipers that couldn't be bypassed, and I had nothing to attack them with. Then, I stupidly destroyed the Moon spell in the graveyard at the last seconds. So, I started building up my base - I gathered 30 ducks, a teapot, and started leveling up Craig... But in reality, it turned out that I fell behind a lot because I couldn't clear the center properly, even though I expanded 3 days earlier than Maretti. Thanks for the game!

24.09.2013 darkello (blue, random, Inferno, Calh, Tazar (Nagash)) def sanin (red, random, Boloto, Gervylf, Enova) 8mm6a 234

Overall, we started a while ago, saved 3-4 times for sure and played..
We decided to play, I had a decent amount of Gogs, Tazar and Nagash, I broke through to 116 for the Conflux secondary skill, on the first week Efreets spawned in the Citadel, Nagash started leveling more than Tazar, both got Earth Magic.. on the second week I start building Phoenixes, we save on 124, and after loading I, like a fool, go in with 4 Efreets as meat and 115 Skeletons into a Naga Bank triple with Nagash (forgetting that Earth Magic was Advanced, not Expert, and I get wiped to zero, leaving a couple of Nagas), by 131 I find 2 Griffin Conservatories near Conflux with unclaimed guards and I start Necromancing the remnants of the Conflux army with Nagash, as a result by 133 I take both Griffin Conservatories, both triples, I go further into the treasure zone in the Underground which is explored with 3-4 Dragon Fly Hives, 2 Dragon Utopias and some minor goodies, I level Tazar as best I can all of week 3 and find another pair of Griffin Conservatories, as a result I have about 30 Wyverns, 8 Angels, and meat, with Tazar on 144 I start taking Dragon Utopias with a bunch of birds, the first is a mini, the second is a max, the max gives KO and +all +4+4 Armor, then I build the Mage Guild, some fuss and all that, the opponent has high stats, Town Portal and Dimension Door, I build Flight in Conflux, find a treasure zone, start consuming it, I eat 2 Dragon Utopias, useful stuff only KV and Wings (I'm fully equipped but not with top-tier artifacts!) in this treasure zone, the Castle player also built up to Citadel and Bears, I take his secondary on 222 and find in the same treasure zone 2 close external dwellings of Bears (I always have 50-60 thousand gold after buying out the opponent's, not less), and then something happens, the opponent attacks with 96 mana and stats 20-23-28-96 mana against Tazar's 22-33-18-200 mana, from combat magics I basically only have Armageddon, there's Resurrection..
His army: 7 Chaos Hydras, 19 Angels, 130 Lizard Archers, 26 Wyverns, singles of Dragon Flies 2 and 131 Dragon Flies in a stack against my 16 Angels, 12 Birds, 30 Monks, 42 Wyverns, 300 Skeletons, 12 Psychos, and single Wyverns, as a result he does something so that I almost wipe out all his Archers, about 5 Hydras, 4 Angels, half his Dragon Flies, I kill his Wyverns, he kills a few Monks and all my Angels, maybe 1-2 Birds.. and 225 Skeletons buy back... As a result on 226 I take 2 external Bear dwellings, find a Dragon Utopia with the Red Orb, upgrade Bears, upgrade 49 Wyverns, Necromance Skeletons up to 600, and go with Dimension Door to his central Castle, I don't reach it, and after a long think about what to do, the opponent attacks me with stats 29-30-22-23 against 23-35 in the game Red Orb.. From my army: 8 Centaurs, 48 Monks, a single Monk, 600 Skeletons, 16 Gogs, 17 Birds and 27 Monks, his: 5 Chaos Hydras, 17 Angels, 131 Dragon Flies, 54 Golems, 28 Archmagi, 60 Lizardmen, and 44 Basilisks
I have anti-morale -3, he has morale +1 considering that when his Angels were 17, morale procced, and then on the Hydra when there were 5 of them, as a result Tazar, even with anti-morale, held everything and killed the opponent. By the way, if I had waited until the next week, I would have taken the main Castle Citadels and Bears, it would have been +10+12 per week!
Thanks for the game

I wrote a huge detailed report — the computer rebooted, so in short: from the start I went for Grands, on a neighboring respawn I found a block of Cyclops behind an Angel portal; the Castle computer was blocked by Ice Elementals; I took the road to the portal, on a rocky! Tower zone I found 3 Pandora's Boxes; with a power stack of 121 I take 40 Trolls for a Pandora of 15 Master Genies and +1 All; on 122 from the third Mage Guild and a Scholar I learn Slow and first hit 70 Evil Eyes for gold, then 12 Chaos Hydras for 8 Royal Nagas; on 123, 60 Cyclops Kings for KV + Dragon Fly Hive, splitting; I take the portal, portal the Angel in the dungeon, 2 Pandora's Boxes for all Water and Earth with starting Wisdom, Griffin Conservatory (4), jump to the rich zone (scouted with View); there's a Pandora of 20 Liches, Sword +12 -3; scouting revealed KZ and KO in different zones; I took KZ, and it turned out to be lying directly under the opponent's respawn, who had been heavily handled by computers, leaving him with 1 town, and he had lost his army somewhere; he surrenders, thanks for the game.

10.10.2013 HellLighT(blue,Rampart,Alagar,Shakti) def TheShevanesian(red,Castle,Christian,fury/striker) diamond 132

It happened. A good start, I broke through the passages, on month 1 day 22 week 1, the Striker charges into a hundred-Griffin Conservatory and dies there — maximum caliber. That same turn I take it, the army is 4 angels and 100 skeletons. As luck would have it, I discover in the already explored treasure zone a КЗ behind a hundred vampires (there was a 2x2 tile square left — that's where it was lying; Fury could have taken it easily, but he ran away, and there are no troops left:). I think about taking the visible Griffin Conservatory and grabbing the tome, then two Dragon Utopias, but the Conservatory turns out to be behind a winding path — minus two days; meanwhile, the computer, on its last move, not falling for the baited scout hero, takes its native castle. Finally I take the Griffin Conservatory — and then on that same turn, Shakti hops in and takes the tome. Thanks for the game!
