For which reason I must steer the thread back on track  Here's a game I had with Joonas last night, orcs vs haven. Unfortunately there was a disconnection in its ending phase but I believe that my chances were pretty good. Bad thing for me was that I chose the wrong shatter, with haven you can never know - it can work pretty well with light, dark or just might.
Also it's time to post the latest version of the map. I see no reason to delay the tournament any longer, I have covered the issues I wanted. About the changes I have covered them in the last few pages, the last one I added was that the shatter dark hut for orcs now costs 3k.
LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

Since I'll have to get a new Hard Disk and re-install Windows and everything (including Hamachi), I'll have to destroy my current Hamachi networks soon, and you'll probably have to join the new ones once I'm able to create them... sorry for any inconvenience.

Actually Asheera, providing you have the password and network names, they will stay active and you can rejoin with your same account when you reinstall it. THe networks will even stay active for other members if your not online

Really? I can join the networks after reinstalling Hamachi and getting a different 'Hamachi IP'?
I didn't know that, I'll try, and at worst (if it doesn't work) I'll create new networks.

I'm not sure about the new IP thing, but certainly if you have current networks, they will remain intact even if you get a new IP. It would just be a matter of you joining your old networks, you would see 1 asheera offline all the time, and the new one online in the existing networks.

I see your point now, sure that way it will probably work (probably because I'm not sure there can be two users with the same name in the same network)
However, this way it won't be "my" network anymore (in the sense that I will be only a 'normal' user), and that has some disadvantages (for example, it'll take up another slot, and without paying for Hamachi you can have only 8 users in a network IIRC)
Well I think I'll destroy and re-create new networks after all... not a big deal anyway since I don't have many myself (only 2)

A fast start to the tournament, we played our games with Radar just a while ago. For some randomness factor we used Joonas's random clicking method and we got orcs vs necro and dungeon vs haven respectively. I'll admit being a little lucky it both, in skills and artifacts.
Here's my Gorshak.
I kinda feared a powerful phoenix but I was lucky to get shout and the most useful warcries vs necro, horde's anger and fear my roar. Got barbarian's luck just in case he tried implosion spamming, you can never be sure with radar What also helped a lot was the dragon armour, boots and inferno set that gave +5 attack. If he had managed an early puppet/frenzy before my units moved it would have been nasty. But then my resistance triggered A LOT 
My Eruina.
Now that was lucky. I barely managed to get swift mind in my last lvl ups, had initiative artifacts to charge haven first and on top of that fire cape for my fireball. No slippers or meteor but fireball served me just fine. Radar tried an interesting build for counterspell but I knew how to tackle it and it only delayed the game. While I prefer luck/morale/retribution I applaud his thinking, was a good move. If I am not mistaken he also had swift mind and I played just before him - had the opposite happened things would look a lot different. That and my units acting first were the deciding factor.
Thanks for the games
Replays.

Too bad I can't see them, from the description it looks like some very interesting battles.
I'll try to watch them once my main PC gets fixed though.
This is the first time Radar loses with Haven to Dungeon, if what he said before is true.  (actually, wait a minute, I defeated his Haven once with Dungeon as well - he was experimenting with Arcane Armor or something IIRC)

I forgot to add that the deadline is next Monday. I may stretch that a bit for Asheera but the rest have no excuses

Nice Battles but you were lucky indeed especially with the artefacts^^.
Ahh I had the Urgash set aswell with Gate Master and swarming gateing lol gated 48 Nightmares, 24 Pietfiends and ~300 leapers that was fun xD.
EDIT: I see Cloak for Inferno at 7000. Interesting I'd say it's a bit expensive (considering the 3000 shatter dark for Stronghold) but that may be premature?
EDIT: Was just fooling arround a bit with Inferno vs. Sylvan(no spectacular match I believe only shows how surpriseingly effective Vampirism+Devils can be killed half the Sylvan stacks alone^^ and that Swift Mind can suck pretty hard . Nebiros had swiftmind and he played at the same time as Anven without it oO). But there was a strange bug in the match when my Horned Leapers attack the Crystals that prismatic breath thing also hits my one Nightmare that wasn't connected to the leapers was kinda weired (I double checked afterwards both corpses were 1 tile from each other )

They don't have to be adjacent to each other in case of prismatic breath.

Yeah always watch out for stacks that are 1 tile away from the target because the breath can hit them too. Unsure if this is a bug or intended. About Anwen maybe she had empathy? A few morale actions from dryads, dancers and it's almost as good as swift mind.

I think it comes from the formula of prismatic breath. It doesn't calculate stacks hit but rather the tiles hit.

Maybe but I didn't try crystal dragons much before the patch so I am uncertain if it was always that way.

Nah Elvin she didn't have Empathy. Practically ruined 4 skill points weired...
Oh and thanks for clearing that with the Crystals. I hope it is a bug though because if it's not you're basically screwed no matter how you place your units.

Even if it's a bug it won't help you since it happens everytime.
