First game in a month and a half, so I was really slow on the uptake. At the end of the first week I took my native secondary skill.
Home: Cavaliers in the Fort, since I started without the Marksmen Tower. In the second week I broke into 3 crypts, 3 Dwarf Cottages, and a cheap Griffin Conservatory, and then came the first stroke of luck: on day 127 I recruited Angels in the Castle, with 1 Dragon Scale left and 51 gold )))) :smile03: Week 3 is spent frantically searching for money and anything not nailed down. I get sad seeing that there's no access to the two revealed Dragon Utopias (!right next to each other!) ((( I entered the underground, and there was a decent treasure zone: 5 Hives, several Pandora's Boxes, a Medal of Vulnerability guarded by 42 Champions, and most importantly, a Dragon Utopia with 30,000 XP. By the time I explored everything, weeks 4 and 5 were almost over — without Logistics and artifacts — it was tough. The Dragon Utopia had junk — Helm of Chaos, Ring of the Stones, Boots of Resistance, and Tome of Fire ((( stats are resting (((. But from it I recruited Angels in my secondary Castle )). I emerged on day 214, finally angry and offended, but on underground creature dwellings I reached level 22 and all Expert skills. So I decided to visit my opponent who had been lying low. I took whatever meat I could afford and broke the GO on day 221 — there were only 43 Hydras there. I could have taken them as early as week 3, but with my native secondary skill I decided to drag out the pleasure. I slowed down the process, in short))) Then it turned out my opponent wasn't doing well, and besides, he wasn't ready. I took the main Castle empty, immediately caught the scout hero with part of the evacuated army, and the next day paid respects to Kyrre herself with another part of the army, so there was no hard fight, although even if he had managed to gather everything together, his chances would have been slim anyway, since I had a big advantage in meat and stats. :smile25:
In all fairness, I should note that Vova's game didn't work out from the very start, probably the respawn was poor...
Thanks to my opponent for the game. It's just a shame that there's zero progress in my own play (((
