Primus (Inga's Dwarves) lose to Alex_R (Light Elves of Talanar/Ilfina) week 6, I think (smiling template)

I don't remember much anymore, it started about 2 weeks ago...
By week 3, Ilfina was level 16. In the capital, there were 1-7 monsters, and nothing in the secondary town.
Before the final battle, I built up both guilds to level 5 and added resurrection and other stuff...
Ilfina level 23, 10-22-10-10 +1 defense and +3 luck
Expert racial + enchanted + arrow storm
Expert light + wrath and blessing
Expert logistics + search and path of war
Expert education +50% mana
Expert luck
Expert attack + battle frenzy.
180 grade-fey, 150 alt-dancers, 48 alt-elves, 28 grade-druids, 18 alt-unicorns, 14 grade-ent, and 7 little green ones
Thanks for the game!

That happened. I was left with nothing but negative feelings about the game.:mad: First, there was only one way out of my starting area, and it led to a desert.:( After that, there was no grass for half the map, only a way to the large treasure rooms on the right, but it was too early to go there in the second week, so I had to move around like a turtle. Second, I learned all five runes in Inga's castle by day 3-4 of the second week. I thought that now my beauty would acquire new ones. But here's the catch - in 10-12 levels, she didn't learn a single rune (it remained the same as at the beginning of the game - five). People, is this a pure bug or just bad luck? In several years of playing the fifth installment, I'm encountering this for the first time (Inga always had about 8, or even all 10)!!! Third, an elf with logistics and path of war against a dwarf in the desert is just a circus!:D Fourth, I didn't learn Armageddon anywhere, and I really needed it, and all five runes were not for fighting the elf, so the final battle didn't go very well. I didn't even fight to the end, because it was clear what would happen. Of course, I could have stayed in the castle and waited for my opponent, and then I would have had more chances to win (one stopping cold spell took out 4 dragons or 5 ents, and I would have had enough mana for 13 casts), but I didn't want to drag out this terrible game. Thanks for the game and good luck in the future!;)
