We played Full-Random.
The first time, Inferno appeared on a terrible map - I used restart 111.
The second time, Inferno appeared again, and the map was still bad; my opponent also had Inferno, but with many good spots. By the 3rd day, he already had demons and creatures of evil from those spots - I used restart 113.
From the 3rd attempt, the game started.
The map was terrible again.
There were 3 paths from the Castle - one led to a horde of elite black knights and elite nagas.
The second path was behind a horde of archers, impossible to break through.
The third path went around a mountain, and it took so long that I only got the mine, I think, on the 2nd month of the game.
As soon as I broke through the archer horde (upgraded my serpent riders), the situation immediately improved. I equalized the number of secondary towns (Rampart). I collected a lot of gold. On the 2nd week, I easily built 7 levels with the Castle. I took the 2nd secondary town (Stronghold).
On 2-1-1, I think, I visited Utopia (Titan Armor and Rider's Gloves).
I took the hat from the mages, clearing the 5th level of spells.
On 2-1-4, Mephala takes almost empty Tazar's Castle (all troops were bought back and taken away).
On 2-1-7, Tazar replenishes mana at the magic spring, and on 2-2-1, he returns to his Castle and buys the growth, and on 2-2-2, he visits the 2nd Utopia on his map (Lion's Courage Shield) and clears the Gate of the Elements for experience.
On 2-2-3, Mephala 21-16-6-6 defends in the Castle. 22 unicorns, and no dragons at all... Apparently, he went into GM mode, having received the Scroll of Flight.
Tazar 20-25-24-12 with 9 elite hydras and - I completely forgot, there were many hives - 56 elite wyverns, resurrection, all slow, and the 5th level did not leave Mephala a chance. And although Mephala had a book + sphere + Earth skill and a Fire book, the un-upgraded magic skills could not help him...
Thank you for the game.
Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth...
