The color didn't help – there were too many ranged units, not enough wood.

Bad start for me, and I played stupidly. I built a wood mine 5 days from the castle, not on the road, and with 2 strong blocks in the way. The good news is that I took a wyvern nest from there. It's so hard to build an army (the wyvern nest needs 15 wood). At the beginning of week 2, I took the road to the neighborhood, destroyed a few guards (archers, of course), then continued for one day, and 25 mighty gorgons defending the pendant blocked my way. A weak army can't defeat them. Thanks for the game.

Three roads. Jellar, Grindan, 12 Air Elementals, external market, small crypt. Day 2, 7 heroes, Shakti appears in the tavern from the captured village and runs along the experience crystals while resources and gold are being secured. Grindan has Expert Earth Magic. On 115, Blue appeared, having taken Green's Tower. I set up Birds, Dwarf Cottage (15), and scatter as far as possible from the adjacent zone. Birds in the Citadel, money available, I go on the attack. We met on 124, Kyrre was already strong 5 6 7 (80) weapon, Expert Water Magic, with Bless and Dispel, 3 Angels, 16 Elves, 8 Medusas, 10 Evil Eyes, 4 Silver Pegasi, Grindan has 4 spell power, 70 mana, 5 Birds, 5 Psychic Elementals, 20 Air Elementals, single Fire Elementals.

The hero stationed on turn 1 didn't show up, but the resp is very rich; by the end of the week I had collected nearly 20k gold and a bunch of resources. I built Cavalry in the Castle, there was a one-way road, I blocked a gap in the resp and jumped into the swamps in the center. On day 117 I took the village, and with the 9th hero I managed to dig up Lacus. I captured the external dwellings of Elves and Centaurs + there's an external marketplace. On day 122 I took the Castle of the green Inferno in the Dungeon and started building a Mage Guild there. In the middle of the week, I recovered the Boots and ran out to the pink Dungeon's resp, where I took a single Griffin Conservatory. No goodies visible, so I went to scout and kill the second computer player. On the next turn in the Tavern, I discovered that pink had lost his Castle — apparently the red player did it. I rush forward and find Mülich with 1+1 Hydras on haste, two more in the Castle on defense. I first recapture the Castle at the cost of 10 Elves out of 45 and a Cav. I calculate how to kill Mülich in one turn — I have Advance, Haste, and an Archer with 80. My army has 2 Pegasi, 70 Centaurs, 1 Angel, 5 Cavs, and 34 Grands, with +2 morale and +1 luck. I bring the Elves into direct shot range with Tactics, and charge the rest into the other Hydra. Neither morale nor luck triggers; the Hydra is left with 4 HP( I cast Haste on the Grands because their speed matches the Hydra with 7, I kill the second one. Mülich escapes with a Hydra that has 4 HP((. On the same turn, Vida picks up a scroll that gives Town Portal, and I build a 4th Mage Guild in Inferno, which also has Town Portal. Next turn, a little horse runs into the multi-way passage from which red came and finds Tan with the rest of the power. Lacus has enough movement with Stables + Boots + Log + Haste, just barely reaching the remaining power — oh, there's not much: some 50 Lizardmen, 1 Wyvern, and some meat, gg.
Thanx for game!

Managed to squeeze the birds into the citadel, then had plenty to do; a couple more days and the Dragon Utopia would be easy, but the opponent's game didn't go as planned.
I can't help but throw a few stones in someone else's garden. The fact that the long-ears' cache wasn't taken despite fairly light guards, and putting artillery in the 4th slot with underleveled Earth magic, was surprising to say the least.

Thx 4 game.

I played as a Necromancer, but on 141 the opponent used 2 Dimension Doors to catch me while I was boosting; I was left with a level 5 Togrim, and with him, I quickly found a hat for the full level 5, and in the final days КЗ, but he never got earth or air, and the opponent' same stats and army are higher.
Thank you for playing.

In the middle of the third week, my opponent had flight; he was taking back my towns but didn't attack the Miner. I managed to grab the nearby Dragon Utopia, a 2-stack and maxes, but they didn't give much, and I retreated into a corner treasure site which turned out to be large—luckily found a box with a full 4th level. A couple of days later КВ, I went back to take the Castles, but I was crushed as they again had higher stats and parameters.
Thank you for playing.Unable to access this page for a long time, have forgotten the process of the game.
Confirming the battle report and thanks for the game!

The game went well; the Miner had 3 stacks, and then Mullich arrived, who was leveling up nicely. However, on turn 117, I encountered Nagash and attacked him without a spellbook, hoping he wouldn't have any mana. He did have mana, and I also made a mistake in the battle. As a result, I had to pay 40 troglodytes to retreat. I wanted to surrender, but I didn't, hoping for a favorable corner treasure. It turned out to be not very good. I ran through it to the green computer and then along the dirt road to the purple one, but there was already an opponent there. He drained my mana with harpies and witches and gave me a GG.
Thank you for playing.

Not enough gold, the birds didn't get up, the cons [console] threw a decent amount, and the Dragon Utopia was near my home town, and even though Necro started from day one, it was somehow slow; I rushed to grab the Dragon Fly Hive and the sword in the center before the Dragon Utopia, only to be instantly overwhelmed with a ton of mana and an attack by a smaller part of the army.
Thank you for playing.

The distribution was very good, but it was impossible to counter Aotd with 124 units while having mana for only one cast.
Thank you for playing.

Thanks for playing!
