Posts from SoY-1: Online Tournaments "Seasons of year" - "Seasons of the Year" - Spring Season 2007

Something about the maps seems off, there's not much sporting interest when you know the maps, many maps don't have Dungeon locations :mad:, maybe the maps shouldn't have been posted? It would probably be more fun with random maps....:smile04:

The tournament is held in duels because it's not just some "entertainment," but a competition of skill in the game. In a random setting, much depends on luck, "how the cards fall," but that's not the case here. And it's interesting where you'll know which map you'll be playing in the next game? Here, you have the element of randomness that you wanted, and regarding the Dungeon, its presence will increase the duration of one game by at least one and a half times; if you have the opportunity to play for that long, I don't think other tournament participants do. The map size is optimal for tournament competitions.
And then, "collective farming is a voluntary matter," if you don't want to, no one forces you; play on non-revealed maps... but I'm afraid you won't be able to do that within this tournament.

Criticism is good, of course, but it's a bit too harsh. We need to keep in mind that this is the organizer's first experience. :smile02: And the wisest one could have helped Horn with the maps! I assume he has more than a dozen of them in his collection?

I think we'll play on these maps, and that will be perfectly fine, and then we can discuss them: maybe we'll like them, maybe not. But at least there's a tournament, and that's cool. The main thing is that the network connection doesn't fail. For me personally, this will be my first online experience.

(RAUL, Rampart, Sephinroth, Sephinroth) (Meo, Fortress, Bron, Bron) built dragons on week 3, as there weren't enough stones on week 2. Captured Bron on week 5 with an incomplete army; he surrendered for money. Obtained the artifact boots of speed and gloves, then the Shield of the Gnollish King, built 5 levels of magic, and with 9 gold dragons at the beginning of week 7, attacked Meo. Captured his main hero, Bronn, in the castle and killed him there along with his entire army. THE SAVE FILE IS ATTACHED BELOW.

All of the above-mentioned bugs have already been fixed in the map; I think the issue has been resolved. Topic closed.

I congratulate my opponent, Uran, who defeated me in a fair fight.

I've already been bombarded with this question in private messages!)))
In short: it won't happen again; that time was a one-off, and I wasn't fully aware, so I allowed a non-"native" hero to be used, but that won't be repeated.

(Uran Rampart Kirre Kirre)&(Kopyl Dmitry Yurievich Stronghold Dessa Dessa) 35-38, hesitated for a long time without knowing the map, didn't have enough wood to build, dragons only appeared on the 3rd week, ate all his resources, 2 scouts reached the opponent, killed the border units, and saw Dessa running away (monsters on the 2nd week, didn't build ogres or cyclops), returned half a turn, picked up supplies with his entire army, and attacked. He retreated for money and (basically surrendered), then went for the Black Dragons and stayed there. Uran won the game, but both players played poorly.

(Geksorin Inferno Pyra)&(_lexx_ Inferno Nimuss) on day 25 of the game Geksorin (9-8-4-2) attacked _lexx_ (4-4-4-1) and was killed in battle.
Congratulations to lexx on the victory.

P.S. To avoid answering questions as to why I was killed with such skills, I will answer:
1) I made one mistake and lost 6 efreits and 30 gog
2) _lexx_ built up efreits in week 1 (I did so in the second), and devils in the second (I did so in the third), came to me with 14 upgraded efreits (against my 5 ordinary ones) and 5 Devils (against my 3).
I consider the game completely fair, the balance was ideal.

(Alex_R, Tower of Einar Einar) VS (Kopyl Dmitry Yurievich, Castle of Caitlin Caitlin)
Developed based on income. In the second week, built a Capitol and recruited Nagas. In the third week, recruited Giants, +1 Naga dwelling, and +1 Giant dwelling. In the fifth week, the final battle between the main heroes took place on the battlefield. A noticeable advantage in army size decided the outcome of the battle.
After losing the battle, the opponent surrendered.

(CrasH_Necropolis_Gartlan_Gartlan) VS (WAD_Castle_Turis_Turis)
Having outpaced the opponent in skills, on the 6th week, I headed to his library... WAD didn't allow this and attacked - the main battle took place. The troops were approximately equal, he was ahead in the last unit, and on my side, there was a clear advantage in skeletons... In a fierce battle, he failed to defeat the skeletons and the vampires that were constantly being resurrected on his first two units. Turis fled... After the battle, I received even more skeletons... The opponent surrendered!
Thank you, WAD, for the intense and interesting game!!!!

Kamikaze, I'm smiling at you!!!!!!!!
One minute you're asking about the heroes, the next you're asking about how these players performed; you should play yourself already!!!!
I'll answer so that no one has any questions: Kopylov D.Yu. and Alex played in the 3rd round, because Kopylov D.Yu. is leaving and won't have the opportunity to do it within the specified time, and I agreed to let them play, so this report will only count towards the 3rd round when the table is created.

(Judge Inferno Octavia Grindan) VS (RAPER Rampart Kirr Kirr)
I focused on developing my army and defense (because I didn't try to attack the opponent due to the difficulty of reaching him). I gathered everything on the water... There was a week of pegasus units, and 2 out of 4 slots (worthwhile on the map) joined (1st - 45, 2nd - 57) (I upgraded them later).
The opponent came with a good army and tough stats.... But the noticeable advantage in army size decided the outcome of the battle (the opponent paid a tribute).
After the tribute in the battle, the opponent didn't give up and decided to attack me with magic. He came with heroes and hit my hero with chain lightning (dealing a lot of damage). Then his main hero came with 1 archdevil and used chain lightning - but he was unlucky because the 3rd bounce didn't hit the golden dragons (I built them a couple of days before the finale), but his archdevil, and the chain lightning killed him... The opponent didn't want to play anymore and admitted defeat....
Thank you for the enjoyable game Judge - you are a worthy opponent!!!!

_______Sincerely, RAP________

(dudge Inferno Octavia grind "stats 15.12.21.19")(raper Rampart Kirre Kirre "stats 10.14.5.9") In the first week, I built up to 2k Efreet and a Stronghold, captured 2 Castles; didn't take the 3rd because upgraded Fire Elementals were standing there instead of level 3s. In the second week, I took the Efreet dwelling, but lacked resources for Devils. I cleared everything on my own land by the end of the 4th week and built magic up to level 4 in the 2 Castles. I grabbed everything that was lying around for free and fought my way to the opponent. Because of a Pegasus week, a bunch of them appeared on his land, and according to him, 2 joined him; it turned out to be slightly over 100 Pegasuses. I lost the battle and retreated for money, then started running around hitting him with Chain Lightning (1000 damage to the first), he upgraded his dragons and things got tense. I decided to be tricky: traded some drops and upgraded my Devils... When attacking Kirre, the 3rd lightning bolt bounced back into a Devil and it died, the hero perished, everything is bad(((( I'm sobbing!!! Congratulations on the victory RAPER

Ksardars (Castle, Christian, Christian) def Kamikaze (Castle, Caitlin, Ryon)
In the second week, I built Training Grounds thanks to the "gifts of the sea." In the third week, thanks to Caitlin and Damacon, I built Angels.
In the fourth week, I leveled up and upgraded everyone. In the first week of the new month, I headed north. In the gorge between the Rocky Mountains, I ran into a legion of furious Griffons, but when they saw that Ryon himself was leading the charge, they realized it was time to retreat, and they did!
Further on, my tired warriors saw the incredibly beautiful Library of Enlightenment at the exit of the gorge. They became so smart that they immediately figured out where the enemy's capital was, and they didn't even need to look at the map editor beforehand. And almost automatically, I couldn't control them anymore; they became so self-confident that they rushed towards the steel city of Castellatus. But then, what a misfortune, a beautiful warrior in shining armor, on a chestnut horse, appeared before our eyes. Her magical name was Valeska. But the bravest of the brave perished in an unequal battle. And then, feeling with my third eye that the false prince Christian was hiding behind the stone walls of the great city of Castellatus, my guys simply stopped thinking and defeated the scoundrel right in his castle. Not a single knight of Christ was killed in the last battle of this short journey.
Final stats: Ryon LV14 14-15-13-10 vs Christian LV15 7-8-7-3
