Favorites, to battle! - 11 - The Battle of Favorites! - 11

The map bugged out, my opponent ended up without an adjacent zone to the center, two portals from his spawn and his starting town were left without a pair...
Thanks for the game.

P.S. Isn't it time to remove 8mm6a from the list of tournament templates?

I got Slow from a Pandora's on turn 134 covering the entire map; before that, it hadn't appeared in any of the GMs or in 15 shrines + 5 scrolls.
But that turned out not to be the worst of my troubles.
A very long road to the opponent's town + another one to the Treasure.
That's where my travels ended; there were a couple more Pandora's boxes,
but my opponent was already showing excellent stats. I decided not to continue.
As it turned out, there were no exits off-road either :smile54:
The chests were for experience and all the water; there was also a Dragon Utopia in the dark with a +4 shield.
Air Control could only be obtained from an Nth rebuild of a 5th GM,
but clearing two spawns in search of resources while my opponent was clearing the entire map with full control was hardly a promising prospect.
Georg also laughed at this generation. He offered a rematch on a different template, but I declined.
If there had been a road, he would have come and killed me, so the victory is well-deserved. Thanks for the game.
