Colorado (Castle, Valeska, Tyris) def Vigo (Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) 2sm4d(3) 1.3.6

On the first week, cavalry in the stronghold without monks + barbarian secondary hero. On the second week, I clear everything I see, resulting in: Boots of Speed, Helm of Chaos, Sphere of Earth, Head of Legion + 20 crusaders in a Pandora's box (too bad I only took them on day 126), 1-6 in the castle. On the third week, taking a detour through the adjacent Conflux secondary town, I go visiting (I saw a blue scout flickering there), along the way two Naga banks for 12000 and 8000 - meat is delivered via a chain.
On day 134, I approach the already cleared Conflux secondary town and see a castle there!!! I take it, losing 7 marksmen, and move on. Tyris level 15, stats 15-9-5-6, with expert Leadership, Tactics, Logistics, Earth Magic, Wisdom, and basic Air Magic. On day 136, I take the undefended capital and replenish mana, having reclaimed some tasty resources from neutrals along the way. Kyrre got stuck in the swamps near a neighboring respawn and, unable to return in time (no chain?), loses at GO.
After revealing a good half of the map with exploration, I didn't find a single conservatory, a single Dragon Utopia, or a single Hive!!! Is everything in the metro??? Possibly, but the entrance is awfully inconveniently located.
In the end, another unremarkable victory.
Thanks to the opponent for the game.
