It gave 2 native heroes - Tant and Vokial, a passage to one of the adjacent zones through rough terrain, to another 50+ gargoyles. All of the first week necropolis struggled, little gold, not even enough for horses. Started the second week by capturing a village in zone 7 with a scout hero, and moving Clavius there through stables with expert logistics, there was an immediate Pandora's Box with 10+ greater basilisks for 80 skeletons and a necro cloak for 19 monks with griffins, a passage to the 4th zone behind 50+ hell hounds, then I capture Conflux and take 2 Pandora's Boxes with 15 storm elementals and 20 air elementals and run to the treasure zone, on turn 124 I stand before the guard of the treasure zone of 20+ dread knights, on his turn red Shakhti stands before his GO on an angel, the trip to the treasure zone is postponed, I upgrade the air elementals, totaling 40, I kill 14 devils and chase off Shakhti, and here comes the army on the scout hero, 2 angels, 110 Troglodytes, 16 Evil Eyes, and singles, I have 300 skeletons, 40 storm elementals, 7 liches, 7 wyverns, 30 zombies, red surrenders. Thanks for the game. Necropolis rules!!!

Pikedram with Gosha in the tavern. At the respawn there is a gremlin external dwelling, a naga external dwelling and +3 Spirit Luck artifact behind the archmage horde, Pandora's box for 20+ magic bulls, a dwarf dwelling, naga bank and Dragon Utopia. Scouted 2 cons (3 and 3+ with gs), Gosha caught earth and on the 2nd all this stuff would have been taken, but Psyche didn't manage it.
Thanks for the game

13.10.2013 Dirty_Player (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Monere) def Dimast (blue, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor) skirmish 125
A layout with an external dwelling of eyes and a Griffin Conservatory at level 1. What more does one need for victory? Only Monere with expert Archery. The opponent's layout was so dismal that there were no chances at all. Thanks for the time.

Confirmed. I didn't restart the layout without external dwellings, but with a Griffin Conservatory. On the first week I settled for medusas in the Citadel. The respawn was crooked; one secondary was in a roadless area (no road from the village at all) and it was physically impossible to reach. From the second secondary, the central zone turned out to be snowy; you could only exit through the GO. On day 125 I wanted to be at the GO but had 200 movement points left, and I decided to accelerate, and that's when I got caught. It's hard to say how the final battle would have ended if Shakti had had the full army, but 120 mana and Mass Slow gave me chances. Thank you for the game.

The matchup gave me an external dwelling with Gaze and a Griffin Conservatory singleton. What else does one need for victory? Only Monere with Expert Archery. My opponent's setup was so miserable there were no Chaos Hydras at all. Thanks for the game.

I lost already on the mage, abandoned the skirmish, plus what I was being dealt was something else. Wanted to give up right away, but decided not to spoil the fun for Dungeon to play and capitalize on the matchup. Thanks for the game.

What a wonderful variety of templates! :)

The D! group is ready to play right now! Feel free to contact us!

Javdet (red Rampart, Kirr) def злой_романтик (blue Necropolis, Clavius) 2sm4d3 127

Following the standard strategy - calculated the Necropolis location and arrived before it could develop. Also, he shocked at home - 2 dwellings of archers and 2 conscripts. He didn't manage to get to the conscripts due to the pace of the game.

Thanks for the game.

Yes, the standard strategy worked again... as usual, just one day was not enough.

Confirm. Got cool generation with observatory, stables, market and 2 cent dwells, get to central zones but lost all but 10 g elves and 23 cents.
12 decided to get exp earth (Tyraxor turned out genetically unpure - catched it only on 13 lvl; and 50+ trolls were hardly winnable with 5 unicorns, 6 gorgons and 20 gr elves), scout set to explore sand somehow rushed in opposite direction - and pass to t-zone was very close( The second big mistake was unrecognizing passage to red main resp - that was low)

14.10.13 Alexey-omsk (red, Inferno, Pyre) def c0nn3c71nkK.ppL (blue, Swamp, Fortress) balance 125
We played a full game, and the outcome was average. We had 3-4 cons, but couldn't take any yet. The roads were slow, and the opponent had a bad path to the center, which required him to defend with triple guards. The Demon wasn't very effective, 25 demons against 125. I was planning to break through, take a con, but the opponent opened a portal and settled on a bugged road leading to my castle. I had to restart, and on the second attempt, he tried to break through with Cyclops, but failed. Overall, judging by the fact that Pyre had only 10 mana, the chances weren't great.
Thanks for the game!

13.10.2013 myduck (red, Inferno, Nimus, Alkin,) def Kreg Xek (blue, Castle, Valeska, Valeska) JC 131.
Alkin enters the right window with snakes, a scout run of 7 heroes. I run to a secondary town, on the way I clear a mini Dragon Fly Hive behind 46 harpies — while I don't provoke it, another Dragon Fly Hive is visible behind the dwarves — a big one, and nearby a Griffin Conservatory 3 or 4 with a griffin stack. I buy a spell book in the castle secondary town and with a delivery of Efreets I take the Dragon Fly Hive for 6 Wyverns. Alkin got Logistics and Earth magic, I recall home, then a Pandora's Box with 25 demons for 50+ orcs and 10k experience behind the Efreets. I take an external dwelling of Efreets and Devils, Alkin replenishes mana in the secondary town. On 121 I take the second Dragon Fly Hive — pre-max and a Griffin Conservatory level 4. With scout heroes I take a Griffin Conservatory for 3 angels and another 3 Dragon Fly Hives. On 124 with a full rush from the Griffin Conservatory — cavalry. +2 all +6 all and on the last turn I take the castle in the center.
125 — 3 Dragon Fly Hives, КЗ, КВ and a level 5 hat.
126 — Dragon Utopia +5 all, КО, Pandora's Box with 15 Wyverns, Luna
127 — Dragon Utopia +4 all, Luna with Armageddon broke through to the swamp respawn.
The opponent clears his Griffin Conservatory — reds.
131 a scout hero takes a Dragon Utopia, gives a Cloak of Magic, a necklace +3 was never given. I transfer the army and attack.
Mass Haste and 93 griffins kill 11 angels.
Thanks for the game.

13.10.13 Snooppy(red, Castle, Valessa, Valessa) lose c0nn3c71nkK.ppL(blue, Swamp, Tazar, Tazar) spider 126

A crooked respawn with a single road, which I ran down to the nearest town by the middle of the second week. I purchased 3 external dwellings of pokemons (one, mind you, behind the Wizard), a Dragon Fly Hive, an external marketplace, and a Naga Bank. And a fair bit of gold was scattered around as well. Terek, Pasissa, and Pir showed up; from the prison I got Monere 1st level, who joyfully swore loyal service. Things got livelier: right next to the road were external dwellings of griffins, a pot of monks, another Naga Bank (a total of four were actually found), and I started dreaming of feathered units by the second week…
However, the gold quickly ran out; I barely managed to plug in the horses at the citadel through trading. For the ransom, naturally, not a coin remained. I bought everything except them and the pre-Minotaur Naga Bank. I purchase the remaining horses and knock the purple Necromancer out of "my" town, and then the blue player appears. I drive off the blue scout, and right after Taz himself comes running for revenge with 4 angels. And there’s nothing to meet them with. The other 2 Naga Banks are maximums; I dive into one of them to at least buy something, and then well, GG… (Not a single Griffin Conservatory, not a single Castle encountered along the way…)

Thanks for the game!

P.S. An interesting group we've got here...
