This map is very fast-paced... I played as Fiz there, and his strategy doesn't rely on magic, so there weren't many mass spells...
There was no Ring of the Elements.
It's practically impossible to get defensive artifacts, and even if you do find them, it's not worth taking them. On this map, you mainly need to focus on machinery. Max it out.

Then maybe the mages got lucky...:smile32:
