Vicotnic: Yea, your hero stack seemed way to strong for my little apprentice assassain so I decieded he had to burn the land and legg it. Gg

Vicotnic: And yea, Im up for a rematch next year, I probobly take a little break from warbarons now the tourney is over (all these 1 day games has been abit taxing, dragged on for so long), but when I get back I'll gladly play you again :)
Tue 25, Dec 2018, 12:25 pm

Chazar: Good game, gratulations for winning the tournament!!!!! :) I think my biggest mistake here was going for the L3 ruin in the outer rim first, rather than the ones in the center which are close to each other - the game would have been much more interesting if our ruin hunters had met there instead. Let me know when you are up for game! (I prefer longer turn limits, since sometimes I can play multiple times a day sometimes not at all for a few days.)
Tue 25, Dec 2018, 12:32 pm

Chazar: Darn, your secret strategy is save...the replay always crashes at turn 11. :(
Tue 25, Dec 2018, 12:41 pm

makmak: Also can see replay until turn 11 and don't know the end :-(
Wed 26, Dec 2018, 2:33 am

makmak: Congrats to both of you
Wed 26, Dec 2018, 2:34 am

makmak: btw Noone ended the tour undefeated, Vic and Chasar had one defeat each
Wed 26, Dec 2018, 2:35 am

makmak: I believe it was a great tournament with high quality and strong competition :-)
Wed 26, Dec 2018, 2:41 am

makmak: Congrats Vic
Wed 26, Dec 2018, 2:41 am

Chazar: @makmak: Thanks for the to tournament! Let's have another one!
Wed 26, Dec 2018, 8:07 am

Igor: The 'secret strategy' was included in more fast expansion that is seen already in turns 9-10. Looks that the center dominate over outer circle. May be also Sorc. is better here than Ranger. Makmak you organized nice tournament. Looking for another one, may be play-off system with double elimination for 32 players, or so.
Wed 26, Dec 2018, 10:46 am

makmak: It seems there is interest for a 3x3 tour, if GG and Hadesha can field a team we have minimum 8 teams. Check forum
Wed 26, Dec 2018, 11:03 am

Vicotnic: Thanks for all the gratulation and big thanks to makmak for getting the tournament going in the first place!
Wed 26, Dec 2018, 11:04 am

Vicotnic: Chazar: yea I think the outer rim is a trap, or should at least be considered and after thought. Too much resources are packed into the center of the map so I think top priority must be to race for it. That was pretty much what happened here, I got center first and with all the gold, items and dragons I got from there it was over.

SnotlinG: GG - well played!
Fri 14, Dec 2018, 8:30 pm

Vicotnic: Gg, tack så mycket :)
Fri 14, Dec 2018, 10:10 pm

Igor: gg. strange game without heroes to turn 6 and 8. forgot to think during the game and many abilities were not realised
Wed 28, Nov 2018, 3:49 am

Chazar: Yeah, lost my hero on turn 1, did not get another until turn 6, so I was desperate and tried something new here.
Wed 28, Nov 2018, 6:26 am

makmak: Spooky game indeed !!!
Sat 1, Dec 2018, 2:46 pm

makmak: I suppose both of you would consider yourself far behind in expansion
Sat 1, Dec 2018, 2:46 pm

KGB: Well played. A fun game all around. Good luck in the next round.
Wed 7, Nov 2018, 5:08 am

Igor: Tough game on all the map almost to the end. Thamks for the game.
Wed 7, Nov 2018, 8:16 am

KGB: Well played
Mon 8, Oct 2018, 5:01 am

Vicotnic: Thanks, good luck in the 2v2 and in your last game :)
Mon 8, Oct 2018, 10:42 pm

fantastory: Yeah we count on you!!!
Sat 27, Oct 2018, 11:44 am

SnotlinG: GG - well played!
Thu 4, Oct 2018, 10:51 pm

Chazar: Great game! Lots of interesting turns. The paradropped barbarian and dragon were incredibly lucky for me.
Sun 7, Oct 2018, 12:50 pm

makmak: well played
Wed 26, Sep 2018, 9:17 pm

Chazar: Very interesting game, thanks! Nearly lost hope mid-game.
Thu 27, Sep 2018, 7:48 am

makmak: It was very hard for me to play 3 tour games in big map, I lost track and made mistakes
Thu 27, Sep 2018, 8:02 am

Chazar: Yes, same map is very irritating - I used the "notes for sitter" feature inside of each game to keep track of enemy hero sightings, etc.
Thu 27, Sep 2018, 5:37 pm

makmak: in the smaller maps I kept track. In this round map is big, time was short and workload demanding. :-(
Thu 27, Sep 2018, 8:38 pm

KGB: GG. I lost all my starting armies / heros on turn 2 and 3 in 85% battles. I could never recover.
Sat 22, Sep 2018, 3:16 am

fantastory: Better luck next time :)
Sat 22, Sep 2018, 7:17 am

SnotlinG: GG!
Wed 19, Sep 2018, 6:58 am

SnotlinG: GG!
Thu 30, Aug 2018, 7:29 am

makmak: Well played, I lost fair and square
Thu 30, Aug 2018, 10:53 am

KGB: GG and good luck in the next round. After your reveal of what you had I knew there was no way I was coming back.
Fri 10, Aug 2018, 12:01 am

KGB: Plus this speeds up the start of round 3. Some players were finished with round 2 in early June so they've been off almost 2 months waiting for the tourney to catch up.
Fri 10, Aug 2018, 12:07 am

Chazar: GG your invasion to my homeland scared me, but I figured the center & south were more important.
Fri 10, Aug 2018, 2:09 pm

KGB: Might have been a better invasion if I didn't accidentally kill one of my early heroes and lose my Sorceress to yours. The loss of those 2 heroes so early crippled me.
Sat 11, Aug 2018, 2:23 am

KGB: What's sad about that is that up till then I was having a 'perfect' game thanks to some luck on the neutrals where I hadn't lost a man. Sigh.
Sat 11, Aug 2018, 2:24 am

Chazar: Early Hero loss kills so many games. Ladder games ought to start with 3-5 cities to get rid of this luck factor.
Sun 12, Aug 2018, 11:44 am

KGB: I'd rather they start with 8-10 units because many maps can't handle 3-5 cities due to few cities / map size. But all could handle initially having 8-12 starting units
Tue 14, Aug 2018, 8:54 pm

KGB: In my case one of my 2 heroes losses was my fault due to accidentally killing my hero. I reached L2 with my Assassin on like turn 5 and forgot to increase UL to 10 and died opening a L1 ruin. I almost smashed my mouse when I hit it in a fit of anger.
