only XL-6

At first, I thought I had lost on the rests. 3 rests just gave me disgusting blocks or spiral roads. In the end, my opponent played out the layout while still having 2 rests, and I thought I was done for. Granted, it was Tazar, Gundula, and Dessa. I managed to squeeze bears into the castle on week 1. But I was severely short on gold. The Mino dwelling I took helped. With 6 Minos I teleported and with Dessa took the swamp on the last moves where the computer had placed a castle on 122. Life started to improve. I sent Bron to the mines with 6 Minos, and with the un-bought Gogs I started collecting the swamp respawn. In the end, I took the +600 boots with Dessa, gathered resources, and leveled up, which was a decent result. With Taz I took hives and objects, captured Rampart, and immediately started building GM there. I built Flight right away, but rebuilt level 4 into TP 4 or 5 or 6 times. Not waiting for TP, seeing my opponent's growing stats, I went into Utopia, poured a bunch of Vial of Dragon Blood there, and all the birds + bear + 2 Gogs, and got the Cape and Sword. Well, at least it was clear that I needed to out-army my opponent. Next, with Dessa on DD (I had a scroll at 137, took the dwelling of creatures, and at 141 took the second Utopia. There I got only +6 all, but life went great. Then with Taz I collected various things, and with Dessa I took whatever could be reached with 2 DDs. Dessa had no Earth, but that's how he lived. At 144 I started taking my opponent's villages and towns, killed the horses, killed a leveled-up Solmyr. At 146, after I upgraded 9 bears and 55 Gogs, my opponent surrendered. Lucky that my opponent didn't rebuild the control.

Thanks for the game!
