Hey! Here are some screenshots of the score which I made during my last turn. Since I did that after the battle with El Lobo it would be fair and correct to add some points to his score. 



In general he has already told everything about the game: it wasn't really interesting this time

Tigran Warlord didn't win this time, what happend to the Manticore Riders DreadReapr?

Written on 2018-06-06 07:49:42

After a long wait, I decided to remove Jean to be able to take a few screenshots and report the match.

A long story short:
We decided for 3 classes which can boost each other (the benefit of PBEM++ team games), I picked rogue for Iron Grip, and additionally picked pure good alignment to be able to cast spiritual freedom on cities.
Jean picked Dreadnought to help us boost production, and in the end I had 3 cities with 120+ production to rush SS in 1 turn for an additional 50g only.
Lastly Hellbrick picked WL to help increase domain radius and also picked a pure evil alignment to be able to create some nasty Goblins as well as Greater Life Stealing Feathered Serpents.

Hellbrick was pretty much left alone in the UG and created an impressive empire, ranging from north west to south east corner of the map, and one of his cities produced those crazy Feathered Serpents! He also cleared some mythical sites and received True Resurrect which resulted in this scary army:



Jean acted as the "Guardian of the Center" and controlled the central Giant Dwelling as well as a city he took from Lightform after an early scrap.

Dreadreapr was as always impressive in his empire building, and Lightform did his best to quickly raise an undead force, but 2vs3 for the majority of the game was too much in the end. 

Some screenshots of the scores for those interested:

i was trying to abuse another good pike unit + life steal but ended up with a good number of support shooters (witches)

the map was not perfect, i had to run in the middle and was almost certain to find some opposition  
i also had my forces divided ... as usual... so HellBrick bravely (i wouldn't have done it - but i don't know how good their scouting was) marched in. I was getting my army together and backing off a little while getting robots out and wondering why HellBrick is trying to lose the game

then comes one turn where my capitol is taken and my leader dies in the beggining of a battle i was so sure i will always win ):

sorry for being so lame in this game

It took us 98 turns and 9 months to finish this emotional roller coaster of a game, but it's finally over =) I want to thank everyone who participated in it, both allies and opponents, you all made this game truly epic and thrilling.

This is a game that definitely needs to have a report written about it. I'm not sure when I'll be able to get to it and how long will it take, but the story of our struggle for survival that started with losing Melciar on the day 18(?) and eventually ended with us emerging victorious is just too dramatic to be left unshared. So stay tuned, I guess =)

Written on 2018-02-27 14:49:15

The comment from Hellbrick "In retrospect, the game outcome was probably decided when you got the Bone dragon reward from a Wizard tower" had left me thinking and wondering for a very long time and I was very interested in watching the videos of the match from Marcus. I finally finished them today (had not totally finished watching the score when I left a comment on the last video earlier).

I believe the comment misses many points and the result could have been different. The final score itself shows it pretty clearly: Hellbrick was very close in score and most of Marcus' score was military with almost no research and a smaller domain. His cities (Hellbrick's old cities) were weaker than Hellbrick's cities.

I see at least two events that could have unravelled differently:
1/ the most important is that Marcus' economy was VERY weak. At some point, he almost did not have enough mana (and gold) to sustain his summons (and troops). Had Hellbrick summoned some Node Serpents or other stuff in his domain and moved them on the water, far from sight, then sneaked back to attack, he could have taken back cities (re-summoning immediately after taking a city to reinforce for instance) and destroyed Marcus' economy.
Another option was just to quickly dispatch an army back to his old Throne and scout ahead. Marcus moved through a northern and western route. Going through the center would have allowed to reach back the homeland without facing oposition.
And an even better strategy would have been to raze his own cities, to prevent Marcus from getting a way to stabilize the economy. Marcus took several turns to capture all the cities, there was enough time to raze. And Hellbrick also scouted him UG so had more than 2 turns to prepare. Having taken Marcus' cities, Hellbrick's homeland was not necessary for him.

2/ the final battle.
It was totally unnecessary. Hellbrick could have retreated.
But more importantly, some scouting would have shown Marcus was coming (all the sites becoming explored...) so it was not a good idea at all to move in that direction. I don't really understand the moves there... The game 5 turns before the final battle was very far from decided. Hellbrick had Eldritch Horrors and the debate about getting them faster than the Bone Dragons is not really relevant: the result would have been the same for the domain swap without Bone Dragons, and when the game ended, both had T4.

Better economy, better mobility, Master Illusionist... I think the game was winnable and was not lost because of True Resurect or Bone Dragons. Though it's likely that without both, Marcus would have lost as Hellbrick would not have surrendered. Hopefully we'll have all this (Forbidden Sanctum too easy + True Resurect at 25 CP) fixed in v1.25.

Cheers on Hellbrick, you did a good match up to 50% of it. Next time you'll do 100% good!

Written on 2017-12-02 17:31:31

The logic behind that was simple: after seeing a glimpse of your army in the central lake of the UG, I came to conclusion that I should attack your domain, most likely initiating the domain swap. I was planning to cross over to your side of the river and clear the sphinx and nearby objects anyway, and from there it was not that much distance to reach your cities, so I should have been able to get there faster then you could get to my domain or return back to defend yours (which turned out to be true).

The problem was my theocrat hero was missing about a level of XP, so in order to get Divine justicars I had to throw logistics out of the window and go through those extra mines and node to level him up. This costed me a couple of additional days I'd rather not spend, but otherwise the battles for your cities would have been much more army-expensive for me. I still think it was the correct decision for the information that I had at the moment.

And the early onslaught on your frontline cities was a complete accident =) It started as a couple of scouts flying around and, you know, scouting, and then discovering a chance to mess with the inn and the city, so they did exactly that.

Written on 2017-12-02 15:59:49

Shame, but at the same time understandable. What I was curious about was your thinking and actions from turn 28 and onwards, as that is where I spot you take the Sphinx tempel, you send a wyvern and wisp to buy units at the inn and then take 2 of my cities+fortress with that army.

Also, the turns leading up to taking my throne, as that saved me 80 mana and sustaining the 2 dragons upkeep (if I calculated right, I would have 10mana left even if you took it).

Written on 2017-11-29 19:44:43

It was a very interesting match indeed! I'm glad I was a part of it, it was a lot of fun and definitely gave me some things to think about.

Regarding the classic long illustrated report: sorry to disappoint you, but there's not going to be one this time. I guess I could spend time going through the screenshots, picking interesting moments to talk about and describe the details of the game flow from my point of view, but it wouldn't really be appropriate, because in the end none of these things mattered as much as I hoped they would =) In retrospect, the game outcome was probably decided when you got the Bone dragon reward from a Wizard tower. That was a devastating blow to my strategy: as a Sorcerer, I was aiming to outresearch, outsummon and outmaneuver you, but no matter how much you try, the research of your own is never gonna be able to compete with getting a free T4 summon reward from clearing a site. I still had hope after the domain swap, as it gave me a chance to prolong the game, evade battle with your main army and maybe punish you for some mistake later on, but then the True resurrect from another Wizard tower became the final nail to my coffin.

Written on 2017-11-28 22:21:42

One hell of a match, I thought I lost this game several times, but somehow find a way to win.
I get true resurrect towards the end of the game, but i don't think it mattered much, most sites was cleared at this point.

Amazing game of changing the thrones, and very well played Hellbrick.

Thanks for a great match, was a lot of fun, I hope you will make a good report, like you have done in other games!

My contribution is a series of videos, I've made the first 16 turns public.

The Scout is still available at start: it isn't really a spell, so we haven't changed it. Warlord's version of a summoning spell is Raise militia - this one has to be researched.

Written on 2017-08-01 04:36:23

Warlord still start with Scout or does he also have to research it?

Written on 2017-07-31 20:40:15

So I've finally got around to posting this game. There isn't going to be a huge report about it because there is not much to talk about. Melciar surrendered in about 15 days after losing a settler building a city to my scouts, losing a leader in a bad combat against... brigands, I think?.. and things generally not working out for him. I, on the other contrary, had a very lucky and rich start and basically had everything going on for me, so the possible continuation of this game would not have been kind to Melciar =)

What does deserve a mentioning though is the fact that is was one of the first games played with the PBEM++ mod, and as fast as this game was, it still allowed to see some of the changes in action. Probably the most impactful one is the reorganizing of starting spells. Not having a scouting summon pre-researched on start not only provides more equality to the starting condition (since there can't be a situation when one player has a summon and another one doesn't), but also slows things down a bit. The scouting delay itself makes it a bit harder to plan the rush early on, plus the presence of one more skill in the class unit research chain means the access to the rushing units (martyrs, bards, phantasm warriors, etc.) is delayed as well. This slight slowdown wasn't the primary reason behind this change, but I have to say I find it turned out better than we thought it would =) Not nearly as impactful, but having a guaranteed damaging combat spell is nice too.

Another change that's not immediately obvious, but is still noticeable after a while, is the heroes leveling up slower than the leader. In practice (more specifically, in my practice: I don't know for sure how other players are leveling them up) most of their XP comes from the repeated use of the ranged attacks, and this exact XP source got cut by 33%. Personally, I find that the resulting pace feels right, or at least definitely better than it felt before =) You can probably still luck out to get a very nice hero, disregard your class and go mind controlling, but it's gonna take you longer to get to the point when it pays off. Which is definitely a good thing.

I might be a bit biased, but I think the mod is working out quite nicely so far =)
