Not a bad start, stables with enough money and got Luna as 7th or 8th hero. Started taking hives early week 2, then one box behind horde minotaurs gave all lvl5 spells for Luna. I did not have many resources so my guild was slow. Thant already rushed my tower before I could get lvl4. With hit&run and fire elemental + implosion I took maxi tope with Luna, my reward was 3 shoes and a gold sack. With a lot of money spent, I transported my army to the central treasure which had blue hat on ground, guarded by lots of firebirds. I took this, then another tope with +5all. My stats were slightly better, but no chance to beat the army, because I had 2 angels, 26 wyverns vs 18 angels, 20 wyverns, over 500 skeletons. I took another tope in my underground, but got blue hat again, and opponent even closed the gap in stats, so I picked up my +2 speed artifact and planned to hit&run with implosion once Thant attacks me. He indeed attacked me, but had shackles on so it was gg there.
Thanks for playing.

The start was not ideal, but 7th hero in tavern was Galthran and my starting artifact was +5% necro. I still had 2 restarts left, but decided to play because of this. Money was very scarce, I also got unlucky with roads. For 4-5 days my army was very weak, to the point where horde gremlins defeated half my forces. On day 6 I finally got rocs and broke 3k guard in the other direction at a bugged passageway. I reached a stronghold AI's zone, which had pack sharpshooters blocking the road, so I had to wait for 121 army. I moved on, then right before the AI's town were throng of orc chieftains, and I had no chance to beat them. One condolence was that I got animate dead in a shrine there, but with 20 mana this could not be used much. I had 2 dwarven treasuries in secondary zone, with a cons of size 2-4. Thankfully the cons was size 2, probably the best size for me, 150 would cost heavy losses and 200 was impossible. This allowed me to expand a bit more, but map was pretty empty aside from 1 mini hive and 1 box of 50 dwarves. I visited a library and refilled mana, then planned to take my 2 topes. First tope was on 133, maxi. I had to waste a lot of mana on the guard, because it was horde archmagi. This meant my remaining mana allowed for 3 animates with basic earth, and 1 shield. I entered anyway because I had a good skeleton stack and 65 dwarves. I made 1 mistake during this fight, I did not hit the 6 gold dragons when I had the chance, and at the end 4 golds hit my skeletons 3 times (retaliation, attack after wait, attack next round). Result was still not that bad, I lost 91 skeletons and reward was nice with KZ, +4all, red orb.
Opponent judged his situation as not worthy to continue, so he gave up, thanks for the game.

Сетка обновлена.
По итогам ситуации в игре Тварына - Хосенк пришлось провести обсуждение возможных дополнений в правила по некорректным непрерываниям ОХ.
Из-за чего и произошла задержка по срокам.

Из оставшихся четырёх участников турнира можно сказать
Дейв и Тварына по сути согласились.
Антиплеер (надеюсь ненадолго) куда-то пропал и ничего не ответил.
Кеба ответил, что и так договорится обо всём с оппом.

Так что не заручившись поддержкой каждого из оставшихся участников турнира, и при этом уже протеряв пару недель на обсуждения со всеми топами, которые посчитали нужным ответить, правило я не ввожу, но настоятельно рекомендую учитывать, что:

1. Безопасный срок ОХ = Срок рестарта по встрече минус один день.
2. Можно ставить срок ОХ больше. Но оба игрока до начала игры должны ясно понимать, как разруливать ситуацию, когда ОХ вовремя не прервался.

Рекомендуется следовать следующей технологии:
Если синий игрок по окончании своего хода, делавшегося в режиме ОХ, в начале своего нового хода видит красного в зоне потенциальной досягаемости друг друга (оценивается самим синим игроком), то он имеет право, не начиная свой новый ход, потребовать прерывания ОХ.
При этом красный поднимает свой последний авто, без ОХ, синий переигрывает свой последний ход точь-в-точь до того момента, когда видит красного. После этого игру можно продолжать как угодно.

Не настаиваю, что это идеальное правило. К нему есть замечания. Настаиваю, что ничего лучше на данный момент не придумано.
И не использовать даже эту технологию, предпочитая худшие варианты, дающие доп. преимущество красному, для меня выглядит очень странно.

Сроки сдвинуты на 2 недели. Впереди топ-4. Первая игра Тварына - Кеба.
Всем интересных каток.

Благодарю

twarynaБлагодарю за игру!

Из-за ОХ на 115 не смог сделать рест по встрече (один уже был) или не подставлять армию на лошке. На след ход опп напал, на откуп было мало денег.
Благодарю

Nice start, boots, scouted 2 cons off road, 2 topes, necro hero. I followed the road in underground hoping it won't take me to corner treasure, but it did, and I got blocked before I could reach the town. So first week was pretty much wasted in terms of skeleton farming, luckily I scouted a dwarven treasury and imp cache, but both were minimal. After killing some other units, I had about 160 skeletons, and decided this is enough for the 2 cons. The preparations were in vain, because they were 50 and 100 griffs. On 124 I got my second town, a village from AI. He was really nice and built lvl2 guild for me. I scouted the way with Dessa, stables, boots, but didn't find anything valuable. Rampart guild gave fly on first try, so I used this to capture central castle, and more towns from that zone. TP arrived on 4th try, afterwards I started taking the many topes on map.
132 - mini tope, boots of polarity
133 - mini tope, sandals
134 - tope size 2, red orb, black orb
135 - mini tope, boots of levitation
So that's almost zero stats from 4 topes, but red orb was nice, and I got DD on first rebuild. I would have assembled AOTD on next turn, but opponent attacked me in castle. With no spells, it was not possible for him to win, despite my low stats.
Thanks for playing!

Было дело

Russel_lDHlИграли без ОХ. Рестов поэтому не брал, в т.ч. из-за того что первая неделя для партии была по сути потеряна из-за рассмотрения спорной ситуации предыдущего тура и неверно указанной аськи у оппонента.
В разных углах респа разведаны 2 + 1 консы, в минималке чисто грандами и кентаврами в начале второй алагар сливается, так как из-за пустого респа и смежки ведущей в блоки (все шахты ресов и большая часть смежной зоны были отрезаны блоками по бездороге) денег на развитие и скупку не было. На первой смог поставить только 1-5, наверное даже без цитадели. Но на 121 смог забрать родного компа за 6к охраной. У оппа так же, коричневый был болотным. К зеленому дороги не было.
Ушли в лэйт, отстройка гм ничего не давала до перестройки 5го и 4 перестроек 4го лвла. Со своим войском долго был по статам позади, но планомерно тряс ульи и искал утопы.
Когда Граф начал реализовывать свое преимущество серьезным Тазаром с 18 40 статами, отжимая города саппортами - ушел на поиски оставшейся части элика (колба) и АОТД. Только найдя все что нужно чтобы дать отпор экспансии красного - стал ночевать в захваченных обратно городах Кирью, при этом опп нападать не стал 2 раза, хотя мое преимущество вряд ли было ощутимо, но я "подставлялся" осознанно, так как кроме этого и почти ничего не оставалось и я рассчитывал на успех такой битвы даже с раскачанным Тазом. В итоге удалось и догрейдить архов в отстроенном городе под боком оппа и слегка проредить армагами его войско. На моем ходу, когда я после взятия центрального важного города собирался напасть уже на Таза в поле сам, оппонент психанул и написал гг, не дождавшись ФБ.
Спасибо за игру.

спасибо за игру!

Had decent tempo, even got fast tp but opponent caught me in central flux with similar army and more mana. Could not win.
Thanks for the game.

I had necro AI, vampire's cowl from wagon, so maining Xsi for the early game was obvious choice. My roads turned out to be great, I was looking for the orange castle AI because my necro AI was offroad. There was a block of horde ice elementals on the road, and a portal of glory right next to it guarded by lots of dendroid soldiers. I was ready to turn back from here, but I got very lucky and received slow in a shrine close by and could capture the dwelling, then beat the ice elementals 121 with 2 angels and the rest. Expanded into more directions, had some really nice artifacts and farmed over 500 skeletons. I took 2 topes 126 and my reward was +5all, air book and +3all. Soon after opp called gg.
Thanks for the game!
Thanks for the tournament, it was a great pleasure. I could never imagine even being close to the top3, but it seems I wrote history once more. Only inferno remains.
