Can I play in at least one tournament without Simon in my group?

We withdrew, secured a good position, and gained a decent amount of resources. Then the enemy arrived, and we managed to defend our base, land, and strategy. On turn 123, the opponent attacked our base with flying units, but our skeletons couldn't physically keep up with them. The generator helped – we blocked one path and created a one-way entrance. Thanks for the game.

I haven't played in a long time. It showed when I needed to hold back the horses-)
We completely wiped and started playing again.
I ended up with 10 Evil Eyes after building (turned out to be 9 when I bought them)
I rushed my hero out on week 4 and realized I wouldn't have enough money the next day to upgrade the Troglodytes. I went anyway and ran into 17 Crusaders blocking the passage.
I lost 9 Harpies, 30 Troglodytes, 3 Evil Eyes, and some troops from another hero there (I made a mistake in the battle, even though the terrain allowed it)
On the other side of the dungeon, a block of 30+ Fire Elementals (didn't attack)
I entered the treasure zone and cleared a village. There were 2 Dragon Fly Hives (guarded by a horde of Marksmen and 10+ Grand Elves), 3 Griffin Conservatories (2 guarded by 30+ Wizards, 1 guarded by 5-9 Brown Bears with a Pandora's Box)
Deep in the treasure zone I saw up to 100 Master Mages guarding (+3 Speed Cape and 2 or 3 Chests)
I built Cats and went in (left 3 Medusas, 2 Cats, and the rest of the small stuff there) Hell basically, got upset. My plan to clear the treasure zone got ruined on the second home base I built a Citadel, gave up on full buying
But on day 122 I learned Armageddon (had the scroll, but no money for the Mage Guild)
So I decide to give up on the treasure zone and go attack the computer through the Fire Elementals
I pushed through terribly, lost 50 Troglodytes. Didn't make it to the town and ran into the computer's hero with a decent army
The computer didn't attack me (would've been lucky to get GG right away)
I take the Castle, there's a Mage Guild and 2k income, I buy the spell book.
The next day I attack the computer, threw Armageddon twice and ended up with 1 Manticore and 3 Evil Eyes
In the end, on day 127 army is 0!
But we don't give up because the scout hero scouted another treasure zone with 2 Griffin Conservatories and 2 Dragon Fly Hives
For Gunnar I take Intelligence, Air Magic, and Offense
On the 3rd week I gathered an army of 17 Angels and 13 Archangels!!
On day 137 I took a level 3 Dragon Utopia with a Sentinel's Shield and КВ
Then I took the computer's Citadel with Monere. There were also a level 2 Griffin Conservatory and a Dragon Fly Hive
Below the Castle, a level 2 Dragon Utopia. Gunnar from the clear on day 141 takes the Utopia
They give the Gladius
Using the view mechanic I spotted that I could successfully take the opponent's main and the computer's swamp. In case of deep late game, so that my army strength is higher and stats seem better too
I take the main with good un-bought growth. Monere kills Kyrre on a Fire Elemental. She has Boots of Speed-)
Gunnar with 3700 MP reaches Tazar in the Castle with the last move. Lucky that Tazar didn't have Haste and strong damage magic.gg
Thanks for the game!

We chose rests and played for luck; didn't get much, but not terrible either.
On the first home, I put bone creatures in the citadel; there were no decent external dwellings, only took two lich external dwellings at the end of the week. Captured the dungeon village, found two concentrations and three scattered Hives. At the end of the first гошей, I took a Hive for 6, a concentration of 2, and spent the night near the second one and next to the Dragon Utopia. Scouted ГО groups of nagas and groups of bone creatures, but fortunately, it was possible to get by by breaking through the nagas.
On 121 I take another concentration of 2 гошей, and move as Гошей towards ГО, no slow. As Лошками I take the village and two Hives. Then I blanked with Гошей, couldn't defeat him and left him spending the night on a buddy ). In general, on 124 I stand as Гошей in a rush near ГО. On 125 I bring troops: 4 angels, 400+ bone creatures, 17 ducks, 5 groups of horses, 19 liches, 2 bone creatures and the devourer. I attack the groups of nagas and move towards the center. I couldn't take anything immediately; for some reason, I didn't break through the horde of manticore groups for two artifacts: shield and all-necklace. In the end, on 126 Kirry attacks me with 5 greens, 4 angels, 6 uniques, 15 ducks, unique-unique - and a buddy. There was 70 mana but fortunately no mass magic; hit with lightning moderately. I had mana for one cast of mass shield. In the end, the advantage in meat decided it.

Thanks for the game !!!

The opponent resigned.
Thanks for the game.

02.11.2014 Twaryna (Blue, Fortress, Tazar, Tazar???) def Koldun_nsk (Red, Tower, Aine, Neela) 8mm6a 126

We used up all our restarts. I liked the initial setup; I saw a hidden spot for giants (but didn't manage to place them; I had a horde of grand elves guarding it), a hidden spot for gremlins, mages, and a stockpile. There wasn't much money. Neela immediately leveled up Logistics, then Tactics. On turn 114, she captured the Companion Castle. On turn 115, he recaptures it, learns the Archer spell from the Mage Guild I built, on turn 116, I recapture it, losing about 20 gremlins and a lot of time. On turn 117, to build Nagas, I attack the Imp Encampment, with 2 morale on the Imps. As a result: by the end of the week, I'm left with 37 gremlins, 1 mage, 4 swordsmen + 4 mage golems and 16 gremlins from the dwelling, and no money. Neela, level 6, as a true Alchemist, has 2333 with Logistics, Tactics, Air, and I can't afford to buy a tier 2 creature. On turn 122, I trade down to 0, buy Nagas, gremlins, and a few mages. With them, I break through the Gnome Encampment on the grass (losing 20 from each upgraded stack) with almost no losses. I go underground for Basilisks. On the other side, there are a lot of upgraded air units. I kill them, then several Efreet with an upgraded stack, guarding Pandora. I kill them too. Pandora is empty. Then, I get bold and attack the upgraded Dendroid Horde with an army of about 100 gremlins, 5 Nagas, 10 mages, and 1 Gargoyle, with 0 mana. I lose almost all the gremlins to morale, but I save all the Nagas and mages. Behind Pandora, there are 15k experience points. Neela, 4555, level 14, still hasn't advanced Logistics; she's an Air expert. I take the Naga Bank 20 with this army, hoping to build Angels in the Companion Castle. Again, morale (hello, WT), and I'm left with 3 Nagas and 7 mages. Then, the enemy Solmyr arrives with upgraded flies, cutting off my Neela, and I have nothing to drive him away without losing most of my army, even if I build Angels or get a tier 2 creature. I decide not to waste time and write GG. Thanks to my opponent for the game!

p.s. Once again, I'm convinced that it's not worth leveling up Alchemists.
