The Hive's defense was very weak, but there were 2 external dwellings of birds, 2 of goblins, and 2 of ogres. There was a Dragon Utopia on the respawn and one in the neighboring village.
The pace was extremely slow, despite having Logistics.
After 3 weeks of gameplay, 3 Dragon Utopias were taken — all wonderful, only Captain's Hat was missing. Control was hard to come by. First, I got Fly. Then, right before the 1st final battle, Town Portal was given, but Berserker overwrote it, which later caused great sadness. In Pandora, I was lucky enough to catch Air.
The opponent, with an army about 2 times larger, catches me in a treasure zone — we throw magic at each other and I buy my way out.
Only the 800 mana is encouraging. Summoning is needed. And lo and behold, the upgrade gives the required spell.
I run into a treasure zone, another 2 Dragon Utopias. In the last one, I get the only artifact that isn't embarrassing to wear — sword +5 all.
Hoping to deceive the opponent, I run around in bracers, and he appreciated this feat accordingly and attacks. It should be noted that I was incredibly lucky here with his lack of Implosion and Summoning. But roughly as much mana as Dessa's optimism had diminished.
The final battle turned out to be amusing. I summoned "poops" and pushed forward with them, the opponent worthily repelled the attacks. Mana melted for both of us at roughly the same rate. And the chances were very slim. Until I managed to kill everyone except the stacks of angels and ducks. And then the opponent made a mistake, letting through two Blindness spells in a row.
Thanks for the game.
