A huge respawn and long roads slowed the pace slightly, but still, on the 2nd week I flew out to capture new towns and hit the AI.
By the end of the 2nd week, full-control was established in the nearest rampart on the first attempt. There was nothing extraordinary regarding stats. Golden Bow, Recanter, and Handcuffs. At first, there was no way to take Dragon Utopia, then no time; gradually I hopped over into the opponent's territory. Everything was worse there.
Thanks for the game.
