Volodymyr (Red, Inferno, Xyron, Moandor) def twaryna (Blue, Castle, Sir Milich), Skirmish, 135
We used all restarts, it dealt well, pretty decent gold by 113 village taken, 5 heroes, one of them Octavia. Scouted the entire territory, took resource mines except crystals. Home Efreeti, Dogs in the Citadel, pre-fab in the village, 2 levels of magic and market.
On 121 portaled home, Olem took a 15-stack of Dwarves, upgraded Magogs and Moandor positioned before Liches, for exiting into the treasure zone. On 122 upgrade Efreeti, I take the Barbarian village, on grass, have line of sight, 2 boxes and far to the right Blue flags are flickering near the Griffin Conservatory. Behind a pack of Thunders they give 50 plain Wolves and another 35 upgraded behind a pack of Liches. With line of sight I see the Conservatory is home, and far from the castle. I was afraid the opponent was already farming the treasure zone, though the tavern showed a deficit, based on the game progress, which is why I was barging in. Timer at zero, I go into the tree, it's max, I cut down an Efreeti and all upgraded Wolves and a few plain ones. I position before a pack of Master Genies for exit to the opponent. Mullich runs in and sits in the village. Probably it would have been correct to fall back, pick up the +3 cloak and another tree, but I was so set on attack that I ran to the well near the village and positioned for a hit. There they checked me with a couple of fodder stacks, then Mullich attacked. The battle was very skillfully conducted by the opponent; for the most part I waited for the meat to clear for the buyback (had 4k gold), having fired 2 bolts and the archer.
Stats there: 4-5-1-(40) 19 Magi, 28 Marksmen, 70 Pikemen, 4 Monks, 2 Nagas, 8 Cavaliers, 11 upgraded Griffins.
Mine: 3-4-3-(20) 4 Efreet Sultans, 12 Monks, 38 Wolves, 20 Magogs, 14 Dogs, 6 Gogs, 40 Imps.
Managed to cut down half the Magi, most of the Pikemen, a few Marksmen, and a couple of Cavaliers. I buy back 8 Monks and 6 Gogs, the plan was to pick up the +1 hat near the Necro village and via a chain retrieve the +3 cloak, wait for Sultans, and try to outmaneuver on the opponent's ground.
I start setting up what I planned and see Mullich charging toward the Conservatory, it got tense, since I had trimmed each stack a bit so there was no striking force; where would the strength for the Conservatory come from? A long battle; at the end of the turn I fell back and from the replay still don't understand where Mullich disappeared to. I try to break through to the Necro village, but ingloriously; in the end I pick up what's left, replenish Moandor's mana, and go at the opponent, now Papa on 3 Sultans, have a bolt for 225, the village by the way is on Inferno terrain. On 135 a zero-level Adela with a stack of 28 Marksmen, 8+7 Archmagi, 9 Magi, 2 Nagas and miscellany attacks me. I cut down the Archmagi stack; in return — 1 Sultan and GG from the opponent. Turned out the Conservatory was max and Mullich couldn't handle it.
Thanks for the game!
