OFB-11!

The opponent was well capable of outrunning me with 2 logistics. But at the critical moment, they blocked Dessa in the tavern, and Gunnar was without TP, so I had to surrender. Thanks for the game!

That's how it went; I got terrible roads, but managed to quickly build up control and take some own decent stats from the Dragon Utopia.
Arriving at the opponent's side, I found a much larger army and stats 7-10 higher. Thanks to 2 powerful logistics with 2dd, I took 4 of the opponent's Castle in one turn, greatly improving my position; additionally, Dessa learned the much-needed TP.
Overall, everything was developing in my favor; the opponent, without a timer (I had 25 min), made mistakes and one of them could have been key -
a necromancer support with full control, 5all, and a cap was exposed. But out of absolutely nowhere, I block Dessa on the splits, who should have taken a vital strategic Castle to bury the necro for a second time, and Gunnar forgets to enter the tree to get a level up, and along with it advanced wisdom, and at the deciding moment does not learn TP... I decided to surrender, although with a slightly luckier jump into the darkness of the treasure zone, there would have been 3 Dragon Utopia with КЗ, КО and stats - Armageddon was very much missed; the opp had no magic blocks while I had firebirds and speed!!!

All in all, I threw a magnificent game in a completely absurd situation when I should have carried a difficult layout.

Thank you! Good luck in the tournament!
