Hehee, let me try this one :)
Map name: Boomerang
Opponent: Antal
Red (Antal) Rampart with Kyrre. Blue (Defreni) Castle with Christian.
The good: 4 exp estate scouts week 1 (Had 2 xtra learning stones, so made arch angels week 2
The bad: Red had mastergenies in refugee post, aswell as loads off statarties, sacked middle before I ever could reach it.
The ugly: Red had Gold dragon in refugee camp week 2, first battle won due to 3 arch angels, but 2 archies went down to lightning.
Outcome, Antal won second fight np, and Defreni went to loosers scoreboard 
Defreni

Map = Insanity
Opponent = Defreni
Orange - (Defreni) Solymr ... Teal - (Jinxer) crap hero **cant remember*
The Good: I won the scout wars and have decent control of the 2 gold mines, atleast for a few days. And Dreni has informed me that he has lost half his army in a miscalculated battle with computer.
The Bad: My hero selection sucked, and both my relics are worst possible, so my stats are virtually none exsistant against that MONSTER solymr and his MASSIVE spell power coming my way.
The UGLY: 3 days before he gets to me I find Anti-Chain pendant in a blackmarket to SAVE the day! BTW in this case it was UGLY for my opponent not me hehe!
So Jinxer wipes his brow and takes a deep breath of relief to pulling this game out of a hopeless situation, and strolls to the winners screen!! Great game Defreni!

The Mighty Ballista
I went to see Lord of the Rings and I enjoyed it . Well what I saw of it . I decided to take my boy .. he's 8 , with me. Right from the start I had to block his sight so he wouldn't be so scared , and after 3 bathroom breaks -- that I had to take him too I kind of missed a bit . Oh well the Joys of Father-hood never ceases . hehe me<<-- kenpofourth=blue << Stronghold Grumblebelly<<--red Conflux map= Battle of Bastards I had crap for spells cause of double Stronghold --- Good or bad ? hmm not enough resources to make good use of it and crap at the camps. I make a bold attack against his Castle . It's down to the wire . Lucky me I caught him with his Main but with almost no spell pts. I have 8 Cyclops Kings left and my ballista takes out most of his last troops which were Magic Elementals and Ice elementals and Storm Elementals . Any of you new players ever disregard the skill of Ballista >> think again Funny thing was I was bout to give up when he brought out his elementals closer to my Ballista big mistake . Lucked out hehe

Map: XL w/ under (of course!!) 160% etc.
scenario:
he--picks castle, uses styg as main
JTL--goes random, get inferno happily finds taz.
(styg is a good counter to taz though)
Going backwards...'cuz I'm a backward kinda guy:
The Ugly: My road leads to one-way exit. One-way enterance is two days away of 'off-roading'...other one way exit: middle of nowhere, exit guarded by lots of arch magi. UG.
The Bad: He collects town after town, killing CPUs like mad..stats skyrocketing...I have my thumb up my @ss for 3 weeks building an army to plow through the arch magi and hope to find a road (which I find...3 more days later)
The Good: Taz find all level 4 spells in a box (no earth magic until much later though) but he's armed with Armageddon and sultans now. Styg with monstorous army and darn good stats meanders into well planned trap and gets blasted, but not killed by armadeddon. Styg surrenders picks up twice the amount of troops and comes back for more, this time equiped with RECANTERS....but take away high powered Spells and taz is a GOD.
Find it so ironic that someone has sorcery hero and has to equip RECANTERS to attack good 'ole Taz.

Map: Boomerang
scenario
red picks stronghold and hero
I (blue) pick fortress and balista guy(read signature)
The good: I find +4 attack arti on doorstep, +5 knowledge in water, and some other good arties, manage to get dwellings pretty much built wk 1, and some other decent stuff.
The bad: I don't know there is gold mine (playing map blind), find ZERO gold in water, and am too poor to buy much of my army.
The ugly: I finally find gold mine after building capital, and buy army. Marching to take center town(read signature) which was rampart and should get me some gold going. Know he has had trouble starting out and has limited army. Connection drops (mine, not his) He offers to reload and finish, but I reallize I have to get up in about 2 hours Plan to resume save later, but never see him again after zone changes sign in.
Ok, not the most interesting, but I am bored tonight

I'm red: random. Get fortress and find Drakon
opponent blue: castle (forgotten his hero)
opponent's name forgotten.
the DAMN good: found statue of legion in water on day 6. Didn't mention anything (I usually don't). On beginning of week three I had a HUUUGE army, which he saw when we met in the middle area.
the bad and ugly: he disconnected, never to be seen again.

Hehee I got one more Jinxer ;)
Map name: Battle for Power 2
Opponent: Jinxer
Twas a clan game season 3, new version off BfP2, no desert in middle.
Me (Orange) Picks Stronghold and Gurnisson, hoping for recanters. Jinxer has dungeon with level 3 mage guild prebuilt and pillar of eyes. He gets Gunnar.
The good: Recanters is on my side of the map
The bad: Im way to slow to get my recanters and good stat arties, in the same time Jinxer is blasting the middle with Gunnar and superior stats.
The ugly: He takes my main castle, and walks out off it again. Poor dumb me retakes my castle, but stays inside off it. To this day I dunno why.
Outcome: Jinxer places his black dragons infront off my castlegate so AB and Ogre magis cant get out, and slowly grinds me to death. Great play by Jinxer, and I learned an important lesson that day Dont bottle ur stronghold forces up. And off to the loosers scoreboard once more

map = random large
opponent = zsa
both choose random
I (red) start with Gunnar / Dungeon
zsa (blue) starts w/ Rampart
the good: I have Loynis and Jeddite in my tavern to start, followed by Xyron (scholar), Zydar, and Solmyr.
Xyron levels up from chests, and now Xyron and Jeddite have Resurrect, Prayer, Inferno, and Chain Lightning.
Xyron (my main) has adv intelligence and necklace of dragonteeth.
the bad: in week 2, Thorgrim shows up near me with 2 Gold dragons, stats of 11 12 2 3, and has a scroll of armageddon. None of my heroes have earth magic (for res).
-- Xyron raises a ton of minotaurs and some rocs and manages to kill 3 gold dragons (before Thorgrim surrenders) in week 3. Later thorgrim passes gold dragon and scroll to Sephinroth for H/R armageddon assaults --
the ugly (for zsa): knowing that zsa is losing ground, I advance forth with my dwindling army and kill two more scouts on the same day that Sephinroth surrenderred. Both of them chose to retreat. Zsa couldn't find Sephrinoth... and had no money left.

Map: Random XL/under 130%
Opponent: RychenRoller
Red (him) has Stronghold and Gundula
Blue(me) has stronghold with Alkin
The Good: Template Dwarven Tunnels always fun.. I got really lucky with some early fights and got a nice army together.
The Bad: Extremely low resource population in starting areas making the building very difficulkt at beginning. (kinda good and bad) was fun cause of this.
The Ugly: week 3 he says.. uh oh pack of firebirds guard my way out.. they guard a NICE artie too.. And so I start pondering what it could be.. his stats have not moved... Damnable Wings of flying..
Outcome: Off to the report loss screen again..
Note to self: Try to win a game to post
