We spawned without ballista. I saw boots and canned goods - decided to play it out (kicking myself for not taking a restart), the respawn was slightly larger than the hero's vision. On day 1-1-7, 1-5 in the stronghold + a secondary mine ($500 and that's it). On day 1-2-2 I took the canned goods (a single gold piece) and went for the second secondary mine (swamp), there was an external dwelling of bulls I wanted to build them but never decided - I gave up on the bulls. Scouted on day 1-2-5: 3 Hives nearby and a Dragon Utopia. On day 1-2-7 at home: 1-7 without the 6th in the castle and +$1500 income from two secondary mines - I lived poorly but somehow had enough money. At the end of week 3 I run towards the Dragon Utopia, along the way 3 Hives and then the Dragon Utopia (at 1 Chaos Dragon) on day 1-4-2 - my expectations were met, you couldn't find such junk even on the map: only a sword +12/-3, also there was mana regeneration 3 per day, a sawmill, and Hands of the Legion. And since we hadn't seen each other's parameters the whole game, I thought I was doomed, there were no more roads but I needed a Treasury - there was a portal and an entrance to the metro, I chose the portal. There I ate another 3 Hives and a Pandora's Box with level 4, on day 2-1-1 I teleported home to replenish mana and then storm the enemy come what may (I wanted to sleep). The fog of war showed 100-249 cyclopes and 50-99 monarch wyverns positioned so you couldn't tell which you'd attack (and I didn't bother). I attacked 150 cyclopes (6 stacks of 25). On one side I sped up the game, I killed the cyclopes but had to retreat back to the castle. Either my opponent thought I probably lost my army there and was coming to finish me off - and that could have been true, the cyclopes wiped out my 90 dire wolves twice, only resurrection saved me. In short, GG (Ciele) stands before the castle, I attack:
Shiva 27 7 8 8 (100 mana) 54 Wyverns, 5 angels, 82 dire wolves, 24 thunderbirds, 6 behemoths, 20 crushers (from Pandora's Box) and 30 ogre magi
Ciele 3 12 8 13 (260 mana) 109 arbalists, 57 zealots, 5 angels, 36 wyverns, 20 crushers and 6 champions
He didn't have anything special in magic, hence my victory.
Thanks for the game!
