But at the beginning of the second week, both Grisha and Labeta started getting Oil. I completed some random quest for 60 Lizards, cleared all the creature banks that were nearby (3 Giants and 12 Cyclops), rushed to the nearest treasure, and there I got another box with 25 Demons and three more artifacts.
As a result, a funny situation occurred. I had a lot of mixed units, mostly ranged attackers, but I couldn't even attack the Utopian (there was one, I checked after the game - it came out with 12 Cyclops). I could have broken through almost any Guardian, but I was given Black Dragons specifically so that I couldn't use ranged attackers with Oil. As a result, on day 126, I was at the peak of my power, having cleared everything. And it would have taken three days to reach the next treasure. And all this time, I would have just been standing still in terms of development.
And my opponent had 9 Angels, he could also kill almost anything, including the Utopian. But the tavern showed that my army was stronger. The opponent took a risk and lost everything on his second Guardian.
