Lost Paradise (red, swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def Vigo (blue, castle, Valeska, Valeska), 2sm4d(3), 242
From the very beginning, a decent prospect: two external dwellings of lizardmen, an external dwelling of crocodiles, gnolls, and hydras. The hydras are guarded by up to 99 orc chieftains. On the first week 1-4 and wyverns in the castle. On the second week, I bring up 4 wyverns and lizardmen and attack the orcs, of which there turned out to be 98:(. I lose all 4 wyverns, about 50 gnolls (15 remain), and about 10 lizardmen (about 30 left). But I took the hydras anyway; I distracted them in the center with demon dogs and single gnolls, then brought up more, managed to shoot them down. Afterwards, a series of troop losses followed. First, I attacked the hive, lost some lizardmen and gnolls there, got 6 wyverns - that made it easier, but time was lost. Then I ran through the respawn, fought for some money, which was extremely scarce, and before entering the adjacent respawn, I went to the naga bank... I brain-farted, what can I say; they showed a pack and few nagas, I confused the pack with a group and, deciding it was an easy fight, attacked. Naturally, there turned out to be not 2 per stack, but 4; I lost a hydra and 3 wyverns. In week 3, I captured a secondary castle, scouted 2 more banks and 2 medusa dwellings near it. I went for troops and a spell book. By the way, there was still a Golden Bow lying around on my native respawn; I fought for it and went to the banks (4 stacks and another 4 stacks). I fought with losses again, but money appeared, and I brought in basilisks, of which there were already nearly 40. On the castle's respawn, I scout the Sphere of Earth with a scout hero. Tazar goes into the treasure zone, takes a hive for 4 wyverns, then stumbles upon a Dragon Utopia, where all the archers, lizardmen, and gnolls are lost; 5 unupgraded hydras, 12 unupgraded wyverns, and 27 upgraded basilisks remain. I get the Tome of Earth, Sandals of the Saint +2 to all stats, and a Shield +3. Next, a hive, but guarded by over 100 upgraded medusas; I break myself against them and upgrade hydras and wyverns in the castle, then go again. I take a hive for 4 wyverns, a Shield +3/+3, a Pandora's Box for 5000 gold, a Pandora's Box for the entire second level, and another hive for 12 wyverns. While wandering, I leveled Earth up to Expert and returned home via Town Portal, and in parallel figured out that the Grail is near my capital:) , can dig next week:) . Then I went to the treasury adjacent to the castle's respawn; almost at the entrance there is a minimal Dragon Utopia. It gives a red orb and +4 to spell power; I'm afraid to go further, as I fear an invasion, since it was half a turn's march from the Grail Obelisk. By turn 217, I brought 4 heroes to the center of the map at the obelisks; on turn 222, on the fifth attempt, I got the Grail:smile03:. I also ran for the Sphere of Earth and dug in at the capital - waiting for the opponent, but he never shows:( . Still, I lost a lot of troops; I feared the opponent might be stronger, although Valeska was inferior in stats. In week 7, I went myself, destroyed the Grail Obelisk, and sent out scout heroes. It turned out that Valeska was far from home and couldn't be present yet; I captured the red castle and dug in there now:) , waiting... On turn 236, Valeska arrived, but didn't quite make it in time; I'm sitting tight. On turn 237, Valeska turns back and runs to my capital, but again doesn't quite make it. On turn 241, I jump to my native castle and buy everything, including the external dwellings; with the remaining gold, I bought 2 unupgraded angels and 3 unupgraded horses from the red player, and wait again. Valeska, using Dimension Door once, ends up one tile short of her own castle:D , and she has 25 unupgraded angels:eek: ; if she had upgraded them, she'd have had better chances, of course. Tazar jumps to the red capital on turn 242 and attacks.
