22.10.13 Graf_Bananov (Swamp, Tazar) def BA/IEHOK (Rampart, Ivor) 142 balance l-u

We played in the wt version, where the Swamp is stronger than in SoD.
On the first day, I see a Griffin Conservatory and a Naga Bank, so I decided to play without restarts immediately, while the opponent already took 111.
In the first week, Hydras in the Castle, I took a secondary hero, recruited Wasps from the Hive (never bought a single Wasp until the end of the game).
In the second week, I asked for an autosave (accidentally attacked with Tazar without troops, transferred troops incorrectly). Griffin Conservatory 2, 3 Naga Banks for buying, of which 1 was max, I also captured 2 more Castles, but never got Shield, Stone Skin, or Haste, even though I rebuilt in two Castles. And eureka — in the 5th Castle, Stone Skin and Shield were in the Mage Guild. I also took Griffin Conservatory 3.
Week 3: I already have the Stables, Speed Gloves, and Scout + Navigation. I head toward the opponent (I know he hasn't gone into the treasure zone yet, my scout covered a piece of the treasure zone).
I captured the opponent's Conflux, where I got Haste. I saw that the opponent had started going into the treasure zone, so I decided to chase him and capture the castles on the side.
I caught up to the opponent, managed to eat 4 Dragon Fly Hives, 34 Wyverns.
My army: 5 Hydras, 90 Lizardmen, 3 Angels, 160 Gnolls, 35 Serpent Flies. Opponent's army: 4 Angels, 34 Wyverns, 2 Teleport Casts, Air Elementals split, and 40+ Elves.
When his 4 Angels struck my Hydras twice, and then 10 more Wyverns, and they didn't kill a single one, the opponent laughed and quit the game.
Thanks for the game!!!

10/23/2013. Oldboy (Red, Stronghold, Dessa, Dessa) loses to Heroin_HP (Blue, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre), Balance, 125

The replay showed that the game was playable. I lost because I played too aggressively.
Heroin, however, played well and was ready for my attack.

10/23/13 Sanin (Red, Tower, Neela, Crag Hack) def Iamsamstan (Blue, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor) Spider 143

There was a Naga external dwelling next to the castle; Crag Hack moved in. I had to play despite the opponent's potential double. Crag Hack's leveling wasn't great, but otherwise everything went fine. I built Naga in the Citadel, and at the end of the week I took the purple swamp.

On the second day, I also killed the green Conflux and did scouting, collecting money, etc. I reached the Griffin Conservatory, but it was a big one, so I didn't go in (ended up never taking it for the rest of the game). I built Giants in the castle.

Well, the third week went absolutely perfectly. First, I took a triple Griffin Conservatory, which was quite inconveniently located but close to the treasure zone entrance. I entered the treasure zone, and right there was a block of Giants with a Dragon Utopia behind them. I checked with a scout hero – there was an upgraded stack – but I still decided to fight. 10 units were guarding it, half of them Titans, but I broke through very successfully with a loss of 30 Gremlins and two Gargoyles. In the Dragon Utopia, the Golems worked perfectly, and the Nagas and Angels were ultimately left untouched. I pushed further, and there were three more Dragon Utopias, a Griffin Conservatory, and several Hives. I collected all of it and on day 142 I recalled back home.

I know the way to the blue player, but I have no control, so I'm thinking about where to go next. On my turn, the enemy scout heroes with power ratings run into my territory and get killed by Crag Hack. But in principle, at this stage of the game, Ivor wouldn't have stood a chance either.

Thanks for the game!

Next to the castle there was an external dwelling of nagas, Crag Hack entered, I had to play despite the opponent's potential double. Crag Hack, though, wasn't impressive with his leveling, but otherwise everything was going fine. I built nagas in the Citadel, and at the end of the week I claimed the purple swamp.

On the second day, I also killed a green Conflux and was scouting, collecting money, etc. I reached a Griffin Conservatory, but it was a large one, so I didn't go in (I never took it until the end of the game). I built giants in the castle.

I entered the treasure zone, and right there was a block of giants and a Dragon Utopia behind them. I checked with a scout hero — there's an upgraded stack — but I still decided to fight. There were 10 creatures, half of them Titans, but I broke through very successfully with a loss of 30 Gremlins and two Gargoyles. In the Dragon Utopia, the Golems and Nagas performed excellently, and the Angels were never even touched. I went further, and there were three more Dragon Utopias, a Griffin Conservatory, and several Hives. I collected all of that and routed home on day 142.

I know how to get to the blue player, but there's no control, so I'm thinking about where to go next. And on my turn, the enemy scout heroes with strong armies run into my territory and get covered by Crag Hack. But in principle, at this stage of the game, even Ivor wouldn't have had a chance.

Thanks for the game!
Thanks for the game! The red player was leading the whole way in stats, towns, and army) and in the end, they closed in.

In my opinion, no one. From the start, Goshan gives Necropolis such an advantage that it's better not to risk it.

And definitely not Rampart, because it's a fast-paced castle, not a melee-focused one; it needs operational space. And level 7 is difficult to build. Therefore, on Jeb, Rampart is somewhere in the middle of the list, if not at the bottom.

Which castles can then be called melee-focused if not Rampart? And what is this classification - melee/fast-paced?

He asked for autosave and then posted about his victory... hmm:smile29:
It's not a big deal if it happens due to a misclick, especially if the main hero was lost.

10/21/2013 Maretti (red, necro, clavius, tamika) def Bishop (blue, tower, solmyr, gosha) 8mm6a 221

Nice game with a cool final battle. I thought I had lost it when my scout was one step short of reaching a town, but Bishop didn't have an advantage in terms of Town Portal on any of his heroes with mana, so I escaped with a scare. In the final battle, Bishop had 1700 skellwarriors, 32 wyverns, and 16 aas vs. 1700 regular skells, 18 angels, and 52 wyverns. I had slightly higher stats and earth plus air vs. only air on gosha, which made the difference. Thanks for playing.

I confirm! It was a long game, and I overestimated the strength of my skeletons:D + the lack of earth magic played a role. I attacked with bracers and didn't win:(. Thanks for the game!

23.10.2013. Oldboy (Red, Stronghold, Dessa, Dessa) lose Heroin_HP (Blue, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre), Balance, 125

Post-mortem revealed the game was winnable. I threw it myself by playing arcade-style.
Heroin, nonetheless, played well and was ready for my arrival.

We played without rests. Kyrre came with 5 elves and decent artifacts — a ring for attack and defense. I lost a bit of tempo right before the secondary; on 113 a block of 9 snipers grew from a scroll, luckily I already had Kyrre with tactics, so I built pegasi and broke through without issues. At the respawn, a near-max skeleton, naga bank 3 never took it, a stable near the castle, close GO of 80 pits with GS. Broke through on 115 into the adjacent zone along the road; there, with horses, a 20 dwarf nest with GS fell, not bad gold for growth, and I scouted the Griffin Conservatory, checked with a scout hero — a duo — and took the dungeon. On 122 I doubled to 60 mana, have slow, haste; Earth was actually primary, but I took the Griffin Conservatory more or less without losses with 5 horses and 22 elves, gave away the dwarves, and had 2 planks left. On 123 I broke the GO — elves rule, pity I barely didn't level Earth to GO in time. In the center I immediately caught a mini Dragon Fly Hive and two artifacts: a +3 strength jacket and a +2 attack/defense sword. I was heading to the Treasury, but the opponent showed up above the dungeon and went for the castle. I replenished mana in the center again to 60, crushed Kyrre, and attacked Dessa; Kyrre's attack and defense parameters were significantly higher, more mana, and more troops too — in short, I cast Slow GG. Thanks for the game! Good luck further!!!

Vik, you’ll be saying next that you’re ready to prove in a series of games in the SoDe MaRetTi that Necropolis is better than Castle on Jebel :D

Vic, you'll even say you're ready to prove in a series of games in Sode Maretti that Necropolis is better than Castle on Jebel :D
And I'm not ready to prove that to you either. Simply because 1) I don't have the opportunity to play, 2) I don't have extensive experience with the SoD-Jebel matchup; Maretti clearly plays this matchup better than I do.

Moreover, the experience of tournaments like "Shakti vs. Gunnar" shows that a series of games doesn't prove much. Well, Gunnar won then, who did that convince of what?

Studying the balance of factions needs to be done differently - a tournament is created, such as "Castle vs. Necropolis on Jebel," and in each round, the colors are specified, for example, in the 1st round, red Castle vs. blue Necropolis, in the 2nd round, the opposite, and so on. Opponents switch colors (and accordingly, factions) after each restart. This is to compare the factions themselves, and not the skill of their players. Then, based on the results of several dozen games and player surveys, it will be possible to draw more or less adequate conclusions.
