The opponent took all the rests, I had 113 left. I see 4 roads and understand there are at most 2, and despite my tiny respawn and secondary swamp — I decide to play, plus Gosha dug up something in the tavern and I got the idea to start the piggy bank, and screw him too. But Valka sensed a conspiracy and urgently got Earth — we drop it. Next, I cleared Inferno, my native secondary, and by the end of the week, the swamp. Then a message comes that I might be attacked, with a proposal to count it as a rest on 116. The map was more or less scouted, and the only path was through many ice shields... Usually, on the first week, they don't break them with the starting army. In short, we clarified the rules and continued the game. No attack happened. However, after waiting for the army, a guy stuck at a block on the Inferno respawn visits the lookout, and everything becomes clear — the opponent's secondary, off-road, is in a teleport for 5-9 fanatics, which my road through Inferno led to. Judging by the swamp dwellers' dances, Tazar's forces were sent exactly there. Valaska was also heading there. I had to temporarily abandon the push (the stable + gloves compensated a bit) in case of an attack. I take the maximum Medusa nest without a spellbook and almost without losses. It gives Tactics! Well, order. Meanwhile, Tazar dives into the teleport, and the guys return their army back just before my entry. I wanted to trap them in the teleport, but this worked out too. A guy on a fly kills a guy on a fly (the secondary swamp came in handy). And momma Valka corners papa Tazar on a fly, but I'm slower in speed and he buys himself off. I take the Citadel and kill the gathering snoop — it turns out to be Andra herself. The audacity didn't end there, and the guy on a fly went to scout the opponent's respawn, visits the gardens. But then he ran into a brother, who secured the support of 24 Gnolls. It was a long fight — the Gnolls got no morale, and the flies fought evenly, though I had to break through defense. In the end, both flies had 2 health each, and mine finally died (probably for the best, otherwise they'd keep running until the Gnolls got morale — otherwise, the blue player would have had to retreat). Here I positioned the guys to aim at the troop supply route to the Dwarf dwelling for 20-30 Dwarves and broke the chain. Tazar, with his last hope, breaks the ice shields and bursts into the secondary respawn but doesn't get anywhere. Gosha evacuates the people and sits himself in the capital castle, in case Tazik rushes there. The swamp dweller took an empty secondary and visited the pillar and the arena. Valka, by this time, reached the Dwarf dwelling and started the grind. I wanted to take him, especially since advanced Earth and Slow were in the guild, but there wouldn't be enough cells to reach Tazar. I decide not to risk it — especially given the chance Earth would be granted, I develop, buy up the people, upgrade the Paladins, and go for Tazarushka. He: 2-9-2-5, expert Defense, Earth, and advanced Logistics, 65 Lizardmen, 34+1 Gnolls, 9 Bulls, 6 Wyverns, 12 Basiliks, and 11 Flies. She: 9-6-4-1, expert Leadership, Archery, advanced Earth and Tactics, basic Wisdom and Catapult (the Monk rewarded me), 52 Archers, 7 Griffins, 5 Cavaliers, 67+1+1 Pikemen, and 14 Crusaders. I didn't buy the new batch as usual and of course forgot the morale artifact on Gosha and the spellbook in the capital. I attack, almost overcomplicated Tactics again but decided not to risk it in time and placed everyone to protect the Archers. They hit me with Slow right away, but after the flies, my Archers shoot and even out the Lizardmen. Then the brothers charged, I regrouped the Griffins onto the Cavaliers and held the siege thanks to the opponent's weak magic power — after Slow, he cast Shield, and it was quite hard to kill the swamp. The blue player made a mistake by bringing 40 Nagas into direct arrow range and got wrecked by the Archers; the Cavaliers fell but not quickly — the Crusaders helped, and Valka took her due — Tazar flees. On the same turn, Gosha with 20 Demons takes back the empty secondary Castle, and Nagash on a fly wanted to pull the same trick with the red capital — but there was guard from the new population.
Thanks for the game!
