Posts from "The Newbie-2015. Winter" tournament.

At the respawn, there was an external dwelling of lizards and gorgons.
From the second week on, I was severely short on gold. I broke into two treasure zones: one, Inferno-themed, turned out to be huge and empty; the second, swamp-themed, brought two Dragon Fly Hives and a КВ. Since I was looting the treasure zone with Tazar without a spell book (I didn't have enough gold to build a Mage Guild), I lost almost my entire army.
On the fourth week, I ran into the third treasure zone, where I collected the elixir, took two good Dragon Fly Hives, and secured the Sword of Titan. I met the opponent there with a large army, but I was lucky — the opponent couldn't reach Tazar and couldn't break the chain. On day 147, I took the army out of the treasure zone and with Tazar took the home Dragon Utopia, which dropped stats.
On day 211, I bought the army, upgraded 30 ducks, and returned to the treasure zone to the opponent. The opponent attacked and lost, because besides the army, there was nothing else.
Honestly, I thought the whole game that I would lose the match, but the opponent didn't have enough luck.
Thanks for the game.

I have 111 left, roads are average, scouting reveals that the respawn is far away, one Medusa dwelling from the banks, no external dwellings, mines are open, and 3 piles each, 2 roads, one leading to ГО, the other to the grass adjacent zone behind the zombies. Moner enters as the last hero, decided to play him.

On 114, I captured the ramp adjacent zone, scouted an external dwelling of Rogue Huts and a Griffin Conservatory, both guarded by 84 Elves and a Mace +5 behind the Monks, and another external dwelling of Rogue Huts behind the Marksmen, far away. Moner got Earth Magic and I took Tactics, because Charna and Isra were visible there.

On 117, just enough money for Cavalry in the Citadel, plus Elves in the Fort. Scouted one treasure zone far away and on snow.

There was nothing to do, I didn't want to go without roads towards a possible contact, so I flagged two external dwellings, and the Griffin Conservatory turned out to be level 1, I didn't have enough money to build Unicorns, 4 Crypts were small, there were no more money-generating objects.

On 127, I gathered 40 mana and moved towards the treasure zone in the snow, gave Moner Pathfinding, unfortunately I had to give up Wisdom and Armorer to max Earth Magic.

The treasure zone was empty, a Dragon Fly Hive and a quest for 30 Ducks, a familiar hut. Quickly ran through the zone, exit to grass, our shared adjacent zone with the opponent, use View Earth, the mine is flagged, I think about going into battle, on the way I find a monolith to the treasure zone (later I'll find a Dragon Utopia near it), I jump in, take the Dragon Fly Hive, two Prisons, a quest artifact (there's a hut, by the way it gave 3 Titans), КЗ, and I see a Dragon Utopia, just in time for a new week, I set up a chain of 7 heroes to ferry troops, I have mana for Shield, Stone Skin, and Town Portal. Dragon Utopia (3): Wings, Shield +4 all, Shield +10. Town Portal home for mana and through the Wings the next day I reach that Dragon Utopia, it's max КВ, КВО, Sword +12, КШ.

We ran around a bit, captured towns, in the end I drove Charna into one town, I have 10 more Attack, there are 32 Monks, 9 Thunderbirds, about 300 Skeletons, +2 HP, -2 Morale, I have 4 Angels, 3 Titans, 13 Monks, 19 Battle Rogues, 12 Cavalry, 55 Marksmen, and 35 Grand Elves, I didn't attack the Castle, the next day Charna surrendered.

thanks for the game!

I broke through to my opponent on 1.2.7 and went straight into the castle..
put up my wallpaper there and started settling in
on 1.3.5 the opponent appeared, after the final battle only I remained
thanks for the game

The layout was average, an external dwelling of ducks and some money with resources, cleared the native respawn on the first week, built everything up to ducks in the citadel, broke into the dungeon at the start of the second week, there were three cons along the road 1,1,2, took them all, portal'd the ducks, necro'd 150 skeletons in parallel, broke through to the main path with the papa to go in another direction, then the opponent surrendered

Thanks for the game

I got a lucky start with a Hive and a Stronghold worth 5000 gold. On day 131, I rushed to the opponent's main Castle, took their secondary Castle, and there were many battles between our outposts. Eventually, I stood before his main Castle, and on day 133, the opponent came out and attacked me. I won the fight.
Thanks for the game.

03/25/2015 Daio14 (Blue, Fortress, Wistan, Wistan) def Telder54 (Red, Stronghold, Gurnisson, Gurnisson) 2sm4d(3) 133

Somewhere in the center of the map, a stronghold stood peacefully in the middle of the desert. Gurnisson lived there. In his modest castle, goblins found refuge, and some even occasionally rode wolves. In the tavern, having already downed more than one pint of ale and playing darts, Vidomina and Vey were chatting. Gurnisson, stepping out onto the porch for the first time, began to inspect his lands: a couple of mills, several banks (medusas - 2, dwarves - 1, imps - 1), a lake, and a long-decaying corpse. And two out of three roads led to underground gates. Gurnisson decided to take a ride, bringing four more heroes along for the company. After running around for a while, searching for resources to build, and losing some of his army, he realized that he clearly didn't have enough money. Deciding to look for gold underground, he killed 50+ archers who were blocking his path, and also captured some kind of demonic castle. But less than two weeks had passed since the beginning of his journey when a horde of lizards invaded the desert lands: some had bows, some had six legs, and others had long necks. And they were all green! And then even dogs in striped shirts with hoses came running! )))
In a relatively even battle, Gurnisson fell, and even magic and the sand beneath his feet could not help him.

Thank you for the game! =)
See you later!
