09/14/2016 graalzzz (Blue, Random, Castle, Cuthbert, Craig Heg) def Night Troll (Red, Random, Fortress, Voya, Das) Skirmish 135

In the first week, I captured 1 gold mine, and in the second week, I captured the second one. Das couldn't get his mass magic working. The GM was a complete mess. There was no effective offensive magic. Zones were guarded by 50-99 dragonflies with Guard Shield, which thinned out my army. I wanted to rush my opponent with Septien and Wave of Death, but imagine, the retreat icon was not active, as if the opponent had shackles or the battle was taking place in a city. There's nothing to say here.

So, you were casting spells, and in the first round, it was clear you wanted to retreat, but there are rules in Hv. Most likely, that's the reason...

Please register me for the tournament.

Thank you for playing.

Thank you for the game.

Jeremy certainly helped a lot, and there were more than enough offers with Dimension Door.
But the finale was funny. Out of stupidity, I applied a ban on high magic instead of 2 speed. My namesake responded by putting on Castle and cursed ones. Naturally, it didn't work, and at that point, the advantage in stats and army decided it.

Sorry for the ridiculous victory.

Of course, the stats decided it, what is there to say; it turned out unexpectedly, but I could have left a loophole myself by not wearing shackles of money since after 7 drowns there were plenty, and a promising Necromancer with two artifacts for necromancy was climbing too! That's how it went! Thanks for the game!

a depressing game, I spent the first week trying to get something going, but it wasn't very successful. I wanted to quit, but I found a Necropolis map at the end of the week and started to slowly improve, but my opponent conceded in the final round. GG. Thanks for the game.

The first week - knights in the castle, the situation was simply amazing. I was even superior to my opponent in Necropolis. As a result, I climbed into the top three with a strong stack, without checking and forgetting to visit the stables to upgrade the knights. And I lost everything. I could have continued, but I didn't want to start from scratch. My opponent in the second week only had 50+ skeletons. Thanks for the game!

Tough game... and many mistakes.

My zone was good but problems started on 115 when I entered a hive with horde Dragonflies, which turned out to be full and I was forced to retreat having lost almost all my army. I managed to rebound and take the Devil dwelling on 117 though.

Not enough gold to buy out all Devils but I started to take harder objects relatively fast thanks to Luna's help. I killed my GO on 125 with about 75% of movement points still on Marius but sadly I was very low on timer due to tough week 1. After the GO I killed 70 Unicorns guarding a Pandora (20k XP), ring +1 speed and a Red Dragon dwelling but I ran out of time and couldn't pick them up. Opp broke into the desert right after me and since our exits were close, he took the box and the ring.

Next turn I attacked with Marius with a bit better stats and comparable army but not enough mana to cast any spell while opponent could cast 1 Mass Slow. This combined with opp's speed advantage from the ring and my bad decisions in the battle, as well as couple of unlucky losses along the way (~ 7 wyverns died from GO's morale and my misclick in a con in my zone) resulted in a lost battle for me and about 200 Skeletons still in my opp's army.

I decided to retreat because I still had 1 more conservatory to take with Luna and was hoping to kill the opp with magic and/or faster units (Devils, Angels) in week 3. My opponent attacked a high horde of Mighty Gorgons trying to take the Earth Book but he lost the battle and had to retreat. It seemed like a restart since neither of us had any army left so we waited for reinforcements from week 3.

The con I took with Luna was unfortunately minimal so only 1 Angel. I went into the desert hoping to finish off those Mighty Gorgons, take the Tome of Earth and secure the win but opp had DD and refilled mana so he was faster.

Nevertheless, I attacked again and... made another mistake by allowing my opp to Meteor Shower both Devils and Sultans. Again low on mana I didn't have a chance to win so I retreated again still hoping that Luna can get me back in the game. Opp attacked Luna forcing me to retreat and I only had enough gold to buy out 1 hero so I bought out Marius with all the artifacts.

Next turn opponent attacked some of my scouts and the deciding mistake happened. I forgot that I still had Luna in tavern and I retreated with those scouts. I couldn't buy out Luna any more so it was gg. If not for that, I sitll could win bc I had another exit to the desert where Luna could easily take a Pandora with 5 Red Dragons and another one right next to it with all magic...

In short - too many mistakes for one game.

Thanks for the game!
