How many "cursed" weeks have you gotten in a single game?
LoL....I seem to never have anything positive to say in the topics that I make.
So I'm playing yet another single scenario with Fortress (the one with the King) on hard. All is going well, but week two ends up halfing all income. At this point, because you start with your castle at lv one, my town hall is only worth 1000g/day, so now it's 500g/day. Earlygame this is devastating since you can't get your econ going and you can't even buy units because you don't make enough (just running around with lv 1-2s with minimal spells).
So week three goes by and I manage to buy some units from map dwellings. I clear a couple of neutrals and week four rolls around...ALL EXPERIENCE GAINED IN BATTLES ARE HALFED!
Great. Two cursed weeks in one month. It's week four and I'm lv 10 with no artifacts and I can't even afford brawlers. Time to restart yet another map because the computer probably has lv 6 creatures by now.

Well if I remember right me and Pheonix had a bit of a tough time our last game. Had week of plague, week of disease, and the festival one (I think. Reduces mine production and gold production). Needless to say it was a bit frustrating.

The chance of three "cursing" week appear in a row is very very small fortunately.

I just find all those "useless" weeks just as annoying, I don't want a Battle hamsters week - IT IS NOT FUNNY - and I don't want to know that there are many FIREFLYS so a fishing trip is bad!
and I don't want to have a festival, so I cannot get any ressources. I hate the weeks in HoMM5

Yeah, but if you're saving up for a capitol or a tier 7 structure, the week of plague will screw you!
HartZa, the AI cheats, so it has resources that you won't have. Week of plague is okay, but the exp/income one will jack you up.

I once got week of festivals, then week of disease and then week of plague (and this was in the first month). Due to the week of festivals I couldn't afford my external dwelling creatures and all of them died with the following weeks
It's funny now but back then it wasn't!

If just weak of plague would affect Necro. like it did in HoMM3 - giving them more creatures then I would play Necroes more

That would be IMBA for Necro.
Unless of course, the Week of Life kills all Necro creatures

I don't mind those weeks so much since it affects both players.
Don't forget about things like week of conjunction; they are too rare though.

Those weeks happen to me very Very rarely.Like only once per two months.Most of the weeks are weeks of nothing.And they're just silly.Not a good week to be a carrot?Heck,that week was even mentioned in the tavern.

I restarted the map and week two was the week of plague. I didn't mind that though because I really hadn't started building that many dwellings, so I still had first-build units to creep with.
