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

We decided to play full random, and when all the resets ran out, we got Necropolis. Because of the blockade of marks around the obelisk, I had to stay close to the Castle, fighting off various junk and crypts. On day 114, Gosha appeared in the tavern; the next day he was bought out and run through the upgrade structures, pillars, and stables. At the end of the week, I broke through a passage into the secondary Citadel, with double Mana nearby. At the beginning of the second week, I took the secondary Conflux, Imps, and Dwarf Cottage. Galtran was defeated on the way back to the Citadel, I double-mana'd and entered the treasure zone, ate 2 Hives, and was building level 3 Mage Guild in Necropolis hoping for Animate Dead to take the home Dragon Utopia, but alas. On day 126, I was planning to continue devouring the treasure zone, as revealed when uncovered — there were wings, Tome of Air, and other goodies. But on day 125, the opponent surrendered; things were much worse there. Thanks for the game.

Used all the respawn points. The loot was decent. Found a vocal vampire and a magic earth hut. Just when I was getting started, leveling up a Necromancer and Earth magic for the vocal, I got a GG from my opponent. Lost with 30 diamond-level black dragons.
Thanks for the game.

It was a tough situation. I had everything I needed, but I lacked the resources to take anything and had no gold. I was saving every gold coin. I didn't venture into the Phoenix Lair behind the Basilisk Warren on the first week without an army. The Clues were also heavily guarded by Nagas and Vampire Lords. I also couldn't take the Conflux 3. I managed to build up my forces on the last day, focusing on Phoenixes and Citadels. With what was left, I bought Solmyr at level 117; I didn't want to lose him, and I made the right choice! I managed to level him up to 450 lightning damage with an Air Expert in the second week. By chance, I captured a secondary Opponent's Dungeon with my scout, and I got lucky with Phoenixes in the portal, although they didn't join my army. On day 126, the opponent appeared, rushing a Creature Generator at the Garrison on the crossroads; I thought he would try to retake the secondary dungeon. I left my scout with an army in the castle and sent Solmyr with one Phoenix to replenish mana. The opponent surprised me; I thought he would go back to retake the secondary dungeon, but he decided to attack the Garrison instead. The Garrison was close to my castle, and that's what he did. : Angels and a group of Hobbits attacked Solmyr near the castle. Solmyr used his ability to successfully remove two Angels. The opponent then attacked the castle with four Angels and encountered six Phoenixes, three Angels, twelve Sylphs, and five Psychics – he surrendered.
Thank you for the game.

External dwelling of cows and ducks, Dragon Fly Hive, and 2 Griffin Conservatories, all of this was gathered at the beginning of the second week. 2 secondary heroes were scouted, in one of which we encountered Kyrre with 50 Grand Elves, 5 Angels, 2 units of Pegasi, and 60 Centaurs. Tazar at 6 16 without mana, 4 units of Angels and 14 ducks with a tent won. Thank you for the game.

Medium start, not much money. However, the cow dwelling is right by the Castle, and when I found the second one, I realized the game was on. Money is very tight during the first week. By 117, I managed to take all the cows.

At 123, I took a double cons.
At 125, another double cons (there's a treasure zone nearby, I entered)
At 126, I grabbed a +12 sword. I'm breaking Pandora for 50 gr. liches. They give 1 fabulous dragon :smile08:
At 127, I grabbed a +12 shield. Opened a fabulous dragon dwelling nearby (unpleasant guards, 20-49 gr. efreits)

Then came the taking of 2 Dragon Utopias, +1 home one. The last one is large, they eat a fabulous there. Not much in the utopias. Only useful things were a +5all shield (though I already had a good shield) and armor with +4 attack/defense. In the last one, sandals +2all.
The rest — Kaitan's hat, water magic book, vulnerability medal, titan plate (even though there is no magic), you get the idea.

Picked up 2 more double cons at the respawn.

By 137, I cleared 5 hives in the treasure zone (found it at the far end). And took the fabulous dragon dwelling.

At 145, ГО is broken, at 146 the opponent's town is taken to leave them without bird reinforcements. By the way, by this point it was already clear that he has control (portal and fly at least). And I have nothing.

Then comes the grinding-jumping. I went to look for a new treasure zone.
FB at 214.

Galtran (32 14 16 16). 2 fabulous, 45 gr. wyverns, 44 gr. gorgons, 9 angels, 250 bones. Expert earth, no blast magic.

Ivor (22 26 26 17). 9 fire birds, 4 angels, 29 earth elementals, 42 fire elementals, 8 mind elementals. Air, earth, and fire books. Expert earth, air. Explosion for 3300.

What saved me was having the first move with fabulous dragons and a +1 speed ring. Threw oil, smashed in with everyone from tactics.
They wipe out all my cows and ducks. Angels, 2 fabulous, and scraps remain.
On the 2nd round, the opponent didn't flee. And since I have the first move, on the 3rd I finish off the remains of Ivor's army.

Thanks for an interesting game!

Distributed 2 external dwellings of air units, quickly leveled up the oil via grinding, put birds out on week 1, on week 2 I'm collecting buildings for money and heading to the treasure zone, the treasure zone is empty, 2 hives and 2 Dragon Utopias, which the grinder cannot take at all with his magical stats, simultaneously I'm leveling up Kreg, who takes both at the end of week 3, there's nothing good there, the opponent with 70 ducks takes over my main, but on 141 the opponent red-rushes my papa

Thanks for the game
