The 8th stage of the annual John Van Caneghem Tournament (2007).

Seriously? You even built Hydras...? But why weren't there any Swordsmen?

:) What Swordsmen? By the third week, I didn't have time to gather troops anymore; I was focused on conquering. Kirill leveled up his diplomacy to expert level, I don't even know how long it took, and I didn't have any other diplomats. At first, I was leveling up Edrik, but then I gave up on him, but he managed to gain enough experience to reach level 8. :) That dog :) So he remained a support unit. :) I understood that I needed to try to finish the game by at least the third week because I suspected, just like you, that the leaders would be somewhere in the early third week.
