At home, 2 niks flipped, a hydra nik, a couple of Dragon Fly Hives along the way, and most importantly a КВ, but it didn't work out for the opponent, thanks for the time

Very tough game. There's only one road and it's immediately blocked by a crowd of medusas behind the Dragon Fly Hive. Had to go around. Lots of shooter blocks. For the guardians, I first chose Dragon, but the leveling wasn't coming along at all; the first useful skill didn't appear until level 11 in week 3. Beholders and Berserkers didn't join, of course; I recruited 1-3, and 5 in the Citadel. On the second, I broke through to the green computer, Stronghold; he bought out the entire army on day 121; I killed it in the town on day 122. Then I went to break through the Hives. I also took an external Water dwelling. During the breakthroughs, I lost everything I had; the army on day 125 was 12 Wyverns and 9 Air Elementals. On day 126, off-road, I found an external Berserker dwelling and a Griffin Conservatory; on day 127, I took the external dwelling. The computer took back its town. At home, I built the Berserker dwelling.
131 - Dragon kills the computer's army in a rebuilt Castle; I lost 2 Berserkers and 1 Wyvern. The computer drops Boots of Speed, +3 SP and +1 Luck. I recruit Monere who just arrived, take him through the stables, and start leveling him from zero. I jump into a portal to my second adjacent zone, and there's a Griffin Conservatory 2-4. I attack; it turns out to be a 3-stack; I take it, losing 4 Wyverns. Next, a Citadel village in the corner treasure zone; there's also a Vial of +2 HP. There are 2 Dragon Utopias (1 near the green player's town, the second in the inner mini-treasure zone; nearby is a Cape of +2 Speed). But I can't take them yet. I chain-pass to the Griffin Conservatory near the external Berserker dwelling; I break it with Clavius, and it's a max-stack! Everything falls except 1 Angel and the Berserkers. By the end of the week, I mop up the money and the mini-Dragon Fly Hive; Beholders join at home in the Citadel; I set up chains to take the Dragon Utopia on day 141. Monere conveniently learns Mass Shield just before it; I also take the Cloak of +2 Speed with 45 Magi.
141 - buyout: 5 Beholders, 12 Berserkers, 5 Angels, 100 Goblins, 50 Wolves, 20 Lizardmen, 1 Faerie; I attack the 3-stack Dragon Utopia in the underground; the Cloak lets me immediately cast Mass Shield, which combined with the Vial allows me to break it, losing 1 Angel and the meat. Reward: Wings, Tome of Earth, +4 SP, and a Necklace of +3 to All Stats. I Town Portal to the Citadel, buy more Orcs, Beholders, and Ogres; I attack the second Dragon Utopia, also a 3-stack; I lose 2 Berserkers and some meat; reward: Blue Cap, Red Ball, Cloak of Disenchantment, and Admiral's Hat.
142 - Stables, Double Mana; a scout hero takes a Dragon Fly Hive with 6 Wyverns; I Town Portal to my capital near the revealed piece of a Dragon Utopia in the opponent's adjacent zone.
143 - I see several red flags and rustling near the Dragon Utopia; I suspect it was being taken this turn. Dragon flies there on Wings for reconnaissance and sees a hero named Sorsha with a big army. I attack with the Beholder and the Hat, check for Cloak and Ball; neither is there. I attack with Monere; the army is sizable: 11 Angels and 30+ Wyverns on Sorsha. I throw Implosion at the Angels; -5. In response, a Meteor Shower deals -1 to the Beholders, 9 Earth Elementals, and some Fire Elementals, and she flies forward. I charge in to remove the retaliation on the ducks, kill about 8; in round 2, I finish off the Angels with Implosion and scatter. The opponent offers a surrender. I attack Sanya; I cut off another 40 Marksmen and 23 Swordsmen from her. I Town Portal to the corner village; there, I also buy back Dragon, and replenish mana.
144 - I take the opponent's main with 2 Dimension Doors. At the same time, using the ducks, I take a village in the sandy center from the pink computer. Under the opponent's main is Caitlin with the full weekly growth, but I can't reach her.
145 - On his turn, the opponent buys out Katya against my Brissa, takes the orange computer, and surrenders. Thanks for the game!

I'll take the two external dwellings at home, the hydra external dwelling, a couple of Dragon Fly Hives along the way, and most importantly the КВ, but it didn't work out for my opponent, thanks for the time

On 112 I took the Griffin Conservatory with a minimal Crag Hack, came out with 7 goblins. On 117 I forgot all artifacts on my scout, cleared 9 hydras with mediocre losses, and on morale I barely got wiped at the bear external dwelling - I could have taken it with artifacts. Thanks for the game.

Thanks for the game!

The saddle on the respawn point is good. There's a stable near the city, and Mephala Mullich offers decent prices, so I decided to play. The Dungeon has an unpleasant block of liches in one direction, and I scouted the Consul in the other... in general, on the 3rd day, I managed to capture 3 Consuls, which gave me 9 angels... they give garbage for completing the Utopia quest 2 times, and the same thing happens the second time. There was nothing to counter it, and there was nowhere to go.
Thanks for the game.

On level 112, I used the mini-cons, and on level 117, I used the cons3. However, on level 123, the double Grand Order consisting of human knights and giants (with an upgrade), without haste and mass slow, proved difficult. On level 124, I took Utopia 1, which gave me the Water Book and some other stuff. I saw through scouting that red flags were quite close, so I placed the Grand Mage in the tower – there was haste! Gunnar flew in, and with a wave of death, he killed the units with 1 health. I took the Titan Shield, leveled up mass slow there, and attacked. From there, a chain unit flew out, and I used mass haste on my side. In the next round, I used mass slow and tried to reposition. In the end, I emerged with 1 knight and 100+ skeletons.
Thank you for the game.

We played in 2 sessions; I came out with archangels and took the center. The first time there were very many disconnects, so I offered a draw, but the opponent refused; I saved around turn 126 approximately. With full control, I systematically cleared the center, expecting Armageddon—I didn't force the encounter. Around the third Dragon Utopia, they finally gave me the red orb; I gathered a lot of Barbarian troops and attacked without red-rushing. My stats and troops were superior, and after shots from my cyclops, archers, and fanatics, the opponent wrote gg.
Thanks for the game.

I was heading to the center 121 But that didn't help
thanks for the game

Had a good game, 50 turns with standard settings. On the map, there were two Havens, two Dungeons, two Necropolises, one Fortress, and a couple of Goblins. There were also boots and a couple of Pandoras on the map. The Kraken was summoned through air magic. But Roman surrendered; the game ended very disappointingly.
Thank you for the game!

A good GO dropped from 50 regular nagas. On the respawn there's a console two-piece, two beehives, two movement niks, 1 dog, a couple of goblots, boots on the respawn, a couple of pandoras. Crag Hack was leveled through air. But Roman surrenders, what dropped there is very sad.
Thanks for the game!

0 cons, 0 beehives, 0 niks — that's all I saw by turn 114.. Is this Jebus Cross? :confused:

On level 112, I managed to complete it on 117 attempts. However, on level 123, the double Guardian of Order from human knights and giants (with an upgrade) without haste and mass slow was difficult to overcome. On level 124, I took Utopia 1, which gave me the Water Book and some other junk. I saw through scouting that red flags were relatively close, so I placed the Grand Mage in the tower – there was haste! Gunnar flew in, killed his units with a wave of death, took the Titan Shield, leveled up mass slow there, and attacked. From there, a chain of units came out, and I had mass haste. In the second round, I used mass slow and tried to reposition. In the end, I emerged with 1 knight and 100+ skeletons.
Thank you for the game.

It was a good game, thank you.

Large and rich resp. 7 dwells of skeletons and 4 of zombies, 5 hives with 38 wiws, 3 cons with 7 angels. 1 angel was killed cause of morales vs 80+ grand elfs for a box with 10K exp. Both villages blocked on 1st week. One of them - dungeon - took 121. Built in main just 1-2lvl units and 5lvl of mage guild (ressurect, counterstrike, implosion). Made a scout (Cyra) with exp. view air, so controlled places of Anders's heroes since 117. Broke 124, then took mini-tope (Orb of Inhibition) and sit to tower. 127 Galthran with exp. logistics and stables visited attacked Tazar on pre-last steps. He surrendered with 12 wiws, 1 angel and some lizards/cows, killed me 3 angels, 4 wiws and about 130 skeletons. The game gone to late. After catching full-controle (wings defended by 90+ cyclopes, all 5lvl in box defended 40+ behemoths, book of earth in 1 of the utopias) i began to look for contact with Tazar. At last attacked him in main fortress on his resp. There was recant, but bolt of 850dmg and 900+ skeletons easily decided the battle. About 350 skeletons survived. Thx for game!

Revenge was sweet :)
Thanks for the game.
