Well, why not? I clearly saw 2 groups of vampires that didn't join for free.
But first, I thought it wouldn't be enough for the Rust faction, and second, I was impressed by the power of the mighty Gorgons and how easily they joined.
In short, seeing the Gorgons, I immediately stopped exploring the map and didn't even pay attention or think about the possibility of another option – joining more than 2 vampire stacks.
Basically, I didn't explore the map properly and focused on only one possible strategy.
Well, if I had been given another month to complete the map, just out of boredom, I might have seen this alternative strategy (or some other one), and who knows, we could have competed again based on initial parameters.
Oh, what am I dreaming about? The tournament ended a long time ago. We are all moving on to
stage 9 in Heroes 4 "Saving Angel."
Once again, congratulations to the winner! :smile24:
