这是一场发展Week1极差,Week2极佳,Week3得到所有控制的战斗。

Because my starting hero was Pyre, my opening army was very poor and the map was fairly resource-poor, but having 111 and Gunar join up kept me going. In the first 3 days, though, I realized I couldn't get an Ore Pit and couldn't pick up any ore on the map, so I couldn't build Efreets at all and had to build Pit Lords instead.
The first week was extremely tough, with the added difficulty of long troop-hauling routes and very little gained — both army and economy were tight, surviving only on Pyre's ballista, while Gunar had no way to level up.
The second week still couldn't shake off the tough spot, but Pyre's stats improved a lot. Having spotted the enemy, whose army was stronger than mine, and having nearly lost my whole army fighting for a +500 gold, I kept showing off Pyre's power to make theShevanesian wary and keep him from invading recklessly.
In the third week I started harassing theShevanesian. Having gotten the help of 1 angel, and summoned 1 Archangel in the refugee camp, I split into two groups: one led by Pyre with 1 angel to quickly capture an enemy village, limit the enemy's room to move, and make a long trek to get the boots; the other led by Gunar with 1 Archangel and Pit Lords to expand territory and summon Demons, capturing two AI main towns and building firebirds + Capital — the economy and army started getting strong.
By the fourth week my army was already stronger than theShevanesian's, so I launched an attack on him, quickly capturing several of his towns, including his main town. theShevanesian seemed unable to resist, letting me expand wildly and losing a Rampart village that already had a level 3 Mage Guild; I immediately built it to level 4, getting the Town Portal (TP) spell, and later level 5 for Dimension Door (DD) — this was the key to the whole game.
From then on things went smoothly: Gunar's stats grew powerful and he learned the Resurrection spell; while Pyre kept wiping out theShevanesian's scattered forces, Gunar attacked Utopias and amassed 140+ Demons — both economy and army were now above the enemy's.
Although theShevanesian got a 5th-level cap during his flight and gathered a decent army like 17 angels, he had no more room to grow, no TP, and couldn't match my movement — so he surrendered.
thx for game

171 skeletons, a lot of crypts, and 2 hives for 19 cavalry.

We played a long time ago – my opponent had trouble registering for the season, but the game was memorable.

It went well – on day 111, I could see a couple of easy hives, I got 5k experience for killing zombies, and immediately got an experience log. The respawn point was small, the gold was bad, and there was a horde of warhorses... On days 4-5, I started taking hives. I mostly ran around with Kir, to level up Earth magic, which was easy because the respawn point was small. I took another horse lair, and a crate to upgrade my beardlings.

On day 121, I went out with a full-speed army of 30+ ducks. I was attacking with advanced Earth magic, and 70 upgraded horsemen, and we crushed everything (horses (10 or 11), gnomes) and 4 ducks.

I immediately took a hive on day 4, and then, suddenly, a block appeared on day 120!!! Monarchs for a black orb and a crate... I went in with 30 ducks and oil on them – poison immediately triggered, and since there was no healing, but there was a dispel that doesn't remove poison, I fought with 35 HP ducks the whole time. I barely made it to 8 ducks, where I finished them off. In the crate, there were 8 miscreants, which is good. Then I broke another block with 5-9 archdevils for a knowledge chest, but I was already out of mana. In 3 days, I had 50+ ducks, but I only found a teapot and no drowned ones. When my opponent appeared, I drove him away – he had few troops, and in the center, there was a lot of loot waiting for me, so the surrender followed.

Thank you for the game.

Thank you for the game!

On day 1 I killed a barbarian computer opponent, scouted 3 Griffin Conservatories, 3 Dragon Fly Hives and a Dragon Utopia, at home I placed ducks + bulls in the castle, on day 2 I collected everything from 3 Dragon Fly Hives 8+4+4 and 3 Griffin Conservatories 1+2+3, stood before the Dragon Utopia, and upgraded the bulls. The Dragon Utopia is maxed out, from magic I have Blessing and Mass Stone Skin, stats 9-7, but I have expert Defense and Offense, I calculated and decided to take it, the bulls under Alkin dealt properly with the dragons, I lost all the meat, a couple of ducks, and half the bulls, I got a book of Air, Earth, 2 swords + Luck + Attack, + Alkin with expert Air and Earth, totaling at 131 I got full control with a decent army and stats, according to all flags in the tavern I am stronger, so I relaxed for a week, gathered a couple more Griffin Conservatories and Dragon Fly Hives, upgraded the ducks, and went looking for the red player, I killed the Inferno computer opponent, and at the end of the week I blocked the red player's teleport near their home castle. The next turn Valya attacked herself, stats are low, 5 Angels, 20 ducks, 9 horses + meat, an exchange of Mass Haste and Mass Slow, and Alkin kills Valya in 2 rounds.
Thanks for the game!

Thank you for the game.

Goshan came on month 1, picked him as main hero, captured castles through teleports from the pink Necromancer and brown Castle. At home, cavalry in Citadel, same for Necromancer; at Castle, Swordsmen + Griffins. On month 2, 4 Necromancers are already doing their dark work. Broke 4 Griffin Conservatories, all minimum stats. 2 Dragon Fly Hives (8 and 6). Ramped up before Dragon Utopia with 4 Angels, 14 Wyverns, and 500+ Skeletons. In all castles, cavalry in the castle. On day 131, broke the Dragon Utopia. Reward gave a 5x Hat. Already 6 Necromancers. Planning to Necro-farm in black style and hit everything lying around badly, but the opponent decided not to continue this endeavor.
Thanks for the game!
