We started immediately, the respawn wasn't bad - five heroes on day 1 and wolves. On day 2, I revealed a secondary ramp with lookout towers, but there's a stack of magogs and a pack of beholders in the way, so I hastily build birds. Under the magogs, I sacrificed Gurni's starting orcs and 3 birds; all orcs are dead - the birds survived barely if each had 10 HP. I eyeballed some goblins; they chewed through about 20, but in the end, the secondary is on 114. Scouts collect freebies, Gurni breaks an imp dwelling with 40 imps, losing all the centaurs from the ramp, a bird, and a few goblins. End of the week: behemoths with a castle. I upgrade the birds as fast as possible, send the papa into the stables, and direct him to break the medusa dwelling on the edge of the respawn; I need a lot of gold. On 124, Gurnisson is hastened before the medusa dwelling, and then Neela appears! She breaks through the guard at the junction of the respawns and is hastened by a scout... All the gold is immediately spent on the army, resources are sold, and everything is bought. Gurni breaks the medusas, then frightens Neela and attacks the scout with 8 thunderbirds, 3 behemoths, a hundred goblins, and thirty wolves. Battle result - lost 1 behemoth, all wolves, and 4 birds, but the opponent's losses are even heavier - 4 nagas, a hundred gremlins, all gargoyles, elves, and magic elementals. The scout buys himself out with 60 gremlins. I don't dare go to the capital without a spell book, so I first capture the secondary - Conflux. There's already a guild there; I immediately build level 2. 131 - delivery of all the growth from home, and Gurni marches into the snow. Final battle:
Gurnisson lvl 8 7-6-4-2. Expert attack, advanced armor, artillery, and logistics; has air magic, 40 mana. Army: 5+5 thunderbirds, 4 behemoths, 113 goblins, a handful of dogs. Neela lvl 11 4-4-5-4. Expert scholar, armor, logistics, and earth magic. Horde of gremlins, 8 mages, a handful of genies, gargoyles, and a magic elemental. Fully topped off with mana, Gurni killed almost all of Neela's army with lightning; in the end, only 1 elemental remained against the behemoths. After the third kick, the wall was breached and the behemoths stormed the castle, followed by a slow spell on them and the elemental's escape through the gate. That was the last step of its life; a ballista shot in a straight line took it down immediately. Thanks for the game.
