Thanks for the game (it would have been tough to smoke out a mage with the whole band.)

We chose towns by preference and started without restarts.
Water elementals are not built. Some riffraff is blocking the road out of the castle. We build an MG, there's a shooter and a chalice. With 10 water elementals and 50+ sprites it's playable. Both mines are nearby. Damacon came in fourth - a potential Daddy.
Week 1 results: Dwelling 1-7 in the fort, explored Dragon Utopia, Naga Bank, 2 Dwarf Storehouses, 1 Imp Storehouse, 2 Griffin Conservatories, 2 external dwellings of earth elementals, cloak +2 attack/knowledge, taken Crypt maxed out, 2 external dwellings of sprites, shield +4, hero on the left freed at level 5. Grinya level 6 - expert earth, starting Tactics, Logistics, and Air.
Week 2 results: Market, MG2, upgraded Storm Elementals, castle. Taken Naga Bank, 1 Dwarf Storehouse, explored cloak. Grinya advanced Logistics, mastered Air, running towards the Griffin Conservatories.
On week 3, Ice Elementals and Fire Elementals upgraded at dwelling, taken 2 Griffin Conservatories 3+4, Dwarf and Imp Storehouses, visited the University and taken a Dragon Utopia for 2 Black Dragons. Given tomes of earth and water, ring +1 health, shield +3 attack/defense. Taken secondary towns of Barbarian and Dungeon. Grinya, having doubled mana, runs to ГО despite Kyr's insane stats.
On week 4, buying all troops with Town Portal, unsuccessfully tried to take control of the map. Kyr, with gloves, boots, and a tome of air, did it better.
Thanks for the game and the experience.
