Pit for LM
Auto-translated
29.10.13. Pit for LM (red, Conflux, random Ciele, Ciele) def Player_ (blue, Necropolis, Tanth, Tanth), skirmish, 132.
Another difficult game...
We each took one restart - Ciele came in, Inte, 9 air elementals, decent gold at Castle - 4 heroes on the first day. Some lookout towers placed, a couple of crypts - we play.
112 - necro village, lookout tower. Lots of gold, mines - for magma and boars. Also an external dwelling of fish is visible. In the Mage Guild - shield, slow. Good.
113 - returned through the wasteland passage to my respawn, took the crypt.
114 - since in the crypt we leveled water and power, I think about hitting the boars. I run towards them.
115 - crypt for 5 vampires by Inte, I transfer troops to Ciele. There are predictably many boars, but they are harder to take down than I expected. Lost all the faeries and 3 air elementals, 12 remain. Issues with both ore and wood prevent proper building.
116 - I place bounties of 1000, claim the external dwelling of fish. The army runs to retake the mercury mine for the air elemental upgrade, and Ciele walks to the capital on foot because I need to learn earth spells, since earth magic was granted.
117 - the fish in the citadel are done. Here the opponent resigns, fine, auto, we play for a draw.
121 - 24 air elementals with some fodder break the Magmas, the second mine is ours, income 4k+, 8 heroes.
122 - upgrade to Storm Elementals, I break through the portal for the golems. On the other side - very unpleasant 50+ Greater Basilisks, and it leads somewhere deep into a corner via wasteland. Not suitable, I run through the second wasteland passage for 50+ ghosts.
123 - I open a great central lookout tower. Nearby - a Pandora's Box for swords, a bit further - a couple of external dragon dwellings, which I have no means to take. I see the opponent. He has a Dragon Fly Hive for Djinns and a Titan's Cuirass for demons. The passage there - for Dendroid Soldiers and Greater Birds.
124 - Pandora's Box for all secondary magic. I wanted experience, of course, but this turned out even better, since I got a decent water bolt for 6 mana. The maxi-crypt allows me to level earth, and with expert slow I hit the Dendroid Soldiers - 40+ of them go down not so easily, I have to spend 10 mana. Blue is already literally two steps away...
On his turn, Tanth breaks through the birds and attacks. There turn out to be many troops - 6 Wyverns, 100 Skeletons, 6 Liches, unexpected 4 Champions, and even more unexpected 45 Greater Basilisks. I have 24 Storm Elementals and 29 fish + small fodder from the right-side heroes.
Speed is with me, so I immediately shoot a bolt at the Basilisks, storms at them too. On the second round I repeat, the opponent advances. On the third round, the storms want to go first again, I throw the last bolt at the Liches and buyback for 7k. Total killed around 30 Basilisks, 5 Liches, and up to 30 Skeletons. He killed, I think, one fish and some small units.
125 - I buyback, well, split up, and again position myself on the border of the opponent's zone. This time, no attack follows.
126 - well then, we hit the demons. There are almost 120 of them with Haste, all storm shots are spent, it takes a long time to fight, but I break through. Lost Trotglodytes at the very end due to morale and a couple of fish. Mana remaining is 36 units, spell power is off the charts - 16.
127 - I see Tanth, but decide not to attack - for some reason there is another horde of Greater Basilisks there, plus Greater Zombies have been added, better to destroy the opponent's chains and economy, and then finish off with growth. I take two villages, kill two heroes. Using the lookout tower, I essentially reveal the rest of the map.
Tanth takes a village and goes to that same portal for the Basilisks.
131 - I split my forces, bring in growth, sit in a village on the other side of the portal.
Tanth breaks through, horrifed to discover he ended up right next to Ciele, runs to my respawn.
132 - I attack with Enian, after the opponent learns that Ciele's lightning bolts hit for 400+, a surrender follows.
Thank you for the game.
