Posts from Reports and summaries of the “Art of Strategy - 2” TOURNAMENT.

dexterwar (blue) defeated Stefandmy (mage, Razazak) using the Crown template. Long game.
Both had 2 dwellings, then I found 5 dwellings on my opponent's side, and I saw 3 more.
Thanks for the game.

Stefan (necromancers, Vlad) beat dmitrik (mages, Jalib), summer, week eight

KillAndAction (Academy, Orra) defeated dmitrik (Haven, Rutger) sun 1-3-5.

VIP (elves, Anwen, Wing) lost to dwp (elves, Talanar, Winrael) 145 rainbow

Could have been a tough game, but the opponent managed to somehow throw it at the end of the fourth — played without loads.

The opponent resurrected my Wings twice. In the end I caught myself — I saw there wasn't much meat, only the first dwell, and decided to play with Talanar from the start, chaos with ballista. But because it lagged with defense for a very long time, I took magic as the last slot and couldn't get chaos in three attempts. I took light so as not to miss out. But already in parallel, on fights, Winrael started rolling, who by the end of the game was almost catching up.

Leveled fast. At the start of the third found my treasure zone, but it turned out to be so poor that even I could barely believe it was a treasure zone until the end. One bloody temple and two relics, and no more artifacts!
In the end I decided to collect the relics and run to the second one, fortunately the deadline was short. But right then Anwen pops into that treasure zone. I didn't even take the second relic. Got wrecked on Anwen and into the second treasure zone.

And of course at the entrance to the second treasure zone I run into Anwen again, but here the opponent turned away and didn't attack, and I stayed at the entrance to an untouched treasure zone. I entered it and started clearing. But then came the surrender message.

In theory it should have tipped in my favor due to two treasure zones, but not certain.

Thanks for the game.

dexterwar (blue) Human (Knight) defeated GL Orc (Garunya) using the Crown template. Week 4.
There were two duelists with 5 units each.
I cleared the treasure and ran to my opponent, but he ran to me, attacked, and couldn't do anything with a hundred monks. Thanks for the game.

Eldarmoon (Academy, Orac) lost to KillandAction (Inferno, Alastor+Grok) mask, 2-2-4.
A drawn-out game. Alastor was the main threat, Grok provided support. He wasted time with secondary units instead of focusing on the main threat.
In the end, an under-leveled Orac against an under-leveled Alastor: mass score, vampirism, and unholy word decided the outcome.
Thanks for the game.

KillAndAction (Dungeon, Erling+Inga) won against Stefandmy (Dungeon, Erin+Iranna) in a lab game 2-1-3.
They agreed to play without using save files.
They restarted 2 maps. In the end, it came down to a hidden base of dwarves and hydras. In the tavern, Erling decided to play with him. On the 3rd day of the 1st week, the mouse glitched, the turn was passed, and I missed a building. The opponent offered to use a save file, but I refused. As a result, the dwarves didn't appear in the 1st week. :(
I leveled up Erling in chaos, Inga in light. I only made it to the center on the 5th week. There, Iranna, level 13, attacked me; by that time, Erin had already been defeated. With that situation, the Warlock had no chance.
Thanks for the game!
