There was an elven dwelling, immediately a path to the secondary town just a few tiles from the guard and right at the entrance to the secondary town a teleport to the treasury. So I didn't take a restart. I broke through to the second secondary town (swamp), there was an external dwelling of wyverns. Just a super layout, but little money. I went for the 9 king nagas on the second week, and they got two morale procs in a row (and I had 3 anti-morale and couldn't block the elves) and they blocked my elves. Loss, but thanks to Vitalik for the autosave (I never usually ask, but this was the last time, honestly). I entered the treasury, and there were three hives and Pandora's Boxes with a gold mine. One was guarded by a horde of master genies. I already had a tactic, so I attacked without hesitation. There were 97 of them :eek: They killed my screeners and my 50 grand elves. That was the end of it, but there was still hope for the fat stack of wyverns, which I never managed to upgrade. I saw the opponent, but I wanted to take the external dwelling in the swamp first and find mercury for the wyvern upgrade. I should have attacked immediately, but as it was, he got his growth and his stats were slightly higher than mine. As a joke, I asked Vitalik to give me 2 mercury, and on the next turn I saw he actually sent it to me :smile40: Thanks, of course, but please don't do that anymore, because if I had won, I wouldn't have been able to acknowledge it :) Well, in the final battle there was no chance. 36 wyverns, 3 angels, and single imps for Kyrre against a large amount of meat for Valeska, plus +2 speed.
Thanks for the game! I will learn. :smile04:

The opponent took one restart, I didn't take one because there were two external dwellings right under the castle. We started. In the first week I found another external dwelling, an external dwelling of basilisks, gnolls, and cows. I took everything in the first week except the cows. They were guarded by a horde of medusas, which also guarded an artifact. Due to the distance from the castle, I never took them until the end of the game. Result of the first week - everything except the hydras in the stronghold (the generator apparently forgot to put sulfur). I went to one side towards a secondary town - a horde of lizards, I turned the other way, broke through the dwarves to a barbarian secondary town. There was a Dragon Utopia right there, but the 20-49 arch magi guarding it blocked the path to the castle :mad: . So I wandered around the respawn a bit, collected some money, broke through the lizards, took a necromancer secondary town and saw a path to the snow. That meant it was an adjacent secondary town. I never found the main quest objective until the end of the game. On the third week I started opening external dwellings, so I could take the Dragon Utopia on the fourth. I gathered 7 angels (4+1+2), also took a hive for 8 wyverns. On day 145 the level 3 Dragon Utopia fell, but I lost 1 angel. It gave the Sentinel's Shield, Wings, the Book of Earth, and Magic Boots (just right for my Expert Resistance). On the same week I placed the bears in the secondary town. I took another external dwelling for three angels and entered the treasury. There I cleared another couple of hives, took another minimal Dragon Utopia. It gave a Sack of Gold :D . While Tazar was wandering through the treasury, scout heroes with 2 bears were gathering crystals and sulfur for upgrading the hydras and bears. On day 221 red flags appeared. I doubled my mana, upgraded the bears and hydras, portal-ed to the main castle and went on the offensive. I positioned myself right on the path and the enemy attacked me trying to buy their way into the main castle. But I had Expert Tactics and Mass Slow. Almost all of the army died (8 giants, all the mages, and some of the nagas) before Neela got her turn. She Berserked the cows and they killed one white bear. After buying their way in, I reached the castle on the next turn. Instead of the Necklace of +3 to all, I preferred the artifact against Berserk :) . In the castle there were already 6 titans, 300+ gremlins, and the rest of the forces. But 35 wyvern monarchs, 9 angels, and an Explosion convinced Neela that Armageddon wasn't all that, especially since I had 35% resistance.
The red player's layout was decent - an external dwelling of giants + 4 external dwellings of gremlins on the respawn. But the meat from two castles was fresher :)
Thanks for the game!
