Posts from CIS-2014 in Minsk.

Yes, we can definitely coordinate. I'll arrive at the Minsk railway station on May 5th at 8:48 AM, carriage 3. If you can meet me, we can hang out together.

Okay, then you can count on me. I'll meet you, give you a ride to the base, and then I'll go to work. I'll be back around 5 PM to hang out with you. Unfortunately, I won't be able to spend the whole day. If anything, write to me on ICQ; I think you have my contact.

Hell yeah! :smile25:

Well, Kober should at least win once... don't let him play poker until he's eliminated from the tournament.

The team united its forces and won. Besides, there was nowhere else to go. Thanks for the game.

Dust, you're awesome, you posted some photos. You guys seem to be having a good time playing and relaxing.

Holding the next CIS event in Sevastopol would be extremely relevant! Again, the prices for plane tickets will be reasonable, and for everything else – I suppose they will strive to make it a showcase of socialist achievements. And again, there's the sea, the sun, and all the other pleasures. I think we can find an organizing team; at the very least, I can name three Heroes of Might and Magic players of CIS level who live in Crimea.

Thank you for the kind words, here are some more fresh ones! :-)







































We've just finished dinner, and the plan is to play some games and increase our bankroll :smile02:

Merlin and DD look so serious, while the Chairman is just chilling, did he find something tasty? :D
Thanks for the photos :)

2.05.2014 Grizvald (blue, fortress, Tazar) def MERLIN (red, stronghold, Gretchin, Gundula) 8mm6a, 222
We played SoD. We picked all rests and went. Roads were medium.

First week: I spread out to 4 heroes, immediately cleared the arena and revealed an external dwelling of bulls. Then I found the Golden Bow near mummies, cleared a crypt, the external dwelling of bulls turned out to be extremely inconveniently located, so I didn't clear it. On 113 I hit a roadblock - a prison with a 2/2 swordsman behind Sandero, luckily I could go around. Meanwhile, the tarantulas found a bunch of objects like water mills and dancing boys off-road, as well as two external dwellings of gnolls. On 115 I got out to an adjacent zone, revealed a cape +2 speed behind brown bears. And a passage to the computer. On 117 I took an empty Inferno, under the castle there was a Griffin Conservatory. By the way, the computer made Papal moves: on the road to his respawn there was a portal to the central adjacent zone, the computer broke through it, but the nearby lot of hobgoblins for a chest and a pile of gold he was afraid to break through (very powerful, apparently, guard :D ) I ended the week 123456 in the Citadel and Tazar with expert scouting + telescope :smile13: .

Second week: on 121 I bought everyone except 10 peasants and 10 harpies, went to the central adjacent zone. There was a Griffin Conservatory on the way and on 122 I checked it with a lich: 2-4, I took it down - it's a level 2 Griffin Conservatory, which suits us perfectly :p After the Griffin Conservatory straight to the center, on the way a Dragon Utopia, revealed a dungeon village. Tazar leveled up offense and tactics. I decided to go capture the village, but the road was super messed up, plus there were blocks, first a lot of genies for a Pandora's Box and a level 3 shrine, then a lot of pits for a quest artifact. I didn't waste meat on the genies and went the other way, i.e. towards Merlin. On 126 I revealed the road with a tarantula and discovered a block of ghosts for an obelisk and a Papal cloak of crystals. Actually, that was the moment when the game turned into hellish power. On 127 I stood before the orange computer - a swamp. Tazar got logistics and earth!:cool:

Third week: there were few notable events, I ran into the computer's corner, it was too far to run to Necropolis - I left it untouched. In the treasure zone I cleared a couple of hives, a black market, and a naga bank. I broke back into the swamp and headed towards the Dragon Utopia in the treasure zone off-road, which, actually, besides the Dragon Utopia and a cartographer, had nothing :rolleyes: . Before the Dragon Utopia I cleared boots with a tarantula :) In the level 3 Dragon Utopia they gave a lollipop, КЗ, and a bag of gold. On 137 I planned to bring power to Inferno, I broke through there with Tazar, but due to the Papal chain Tazar had to break through to the Griffin Conservatory using Inferno troops :D

Fourth week: I finished off the Griffin Conservatory, went to finish off the dungeon village, under it a couple of hives. I took a Dragon Utopia off-road and they gave simply royal artifacts: Captain's hat, boots of levitation, and necromancy boots :D With viewing I determined the further path: my native treasure zone off-road. Meanwhile, Gundula got fly, I had nothing but Town Portal from the earth spellbook, no control.

Fifth week: Tazar continued to delight with his +4 radius ability. The treasure zone turned out good, Griffin Conservatories, hives, only one Dragon Utopia though. In the maximum Dragon Utopia they gave two 4/4 stomachs, an Orb of Slight, and a +10 helmet. By the way, the last couple of weeks Merlin persistently offered me to surrender, but something stopped me :D
In the end, on 221 I left one tarantula on 4 angels in the treasure zone, to continue searching for control in scrolls (in guantlet mage they exclusively gave summon elemental :smile21: ), and with Tazar I flew across the swamps and, buying all the power, settled in Inferno. Gundula flew in and after a short deliberation attacked. "Got the red orb?", -"Got it", -"Well why didn't you say so earlier!?" - ":D :D "
Thanks for the game!

10 troglodyte nests on the starting area :) . I painted 8 on the first turn. At the end of the game, I also took 1 more from my opponent. There was a double and overall, the map yielded 4 Ramparts, but against 500-600 troglodytes, it wouldn't have looked good. Thanks for the game!
