Thanks for the game.

Confirmed.

On the second respawn point, there are 2 Ogre nests (one couldn't be captured on the first try, a Cyclops was placed nearby), 2 roads, and one of them leads to the Grail. The respawn point doesn't offer much in terms of resources, so I didn't go for Behemoths and instead built a 1-5 castle with one Ogre nest. At the end of the first week, I captured a secondary castle (Conflux). By day 121, all of the opponent's castles were captured on the map, but I only had 2. Before that, I visited the stables, bought out in my main castle, and with 6 Thunderbirds, I flew off to look for adventure (I thought the portal from the respawn point shouldn't lead directly to the Treasury - it turned out to lead to the secondary castle), while Gunnar with 2 Thunderbirds, 12 Air Elementals, and 8 Ogres remained at the secondary castle - everything there was already consumed. Remaining options: 1 path through the Underground with 81 Lizardmen (I lost with the aforementioned army), 2 - to the secondary castle via an off-road path (I didn't go there, I didn't want to go into the darkness to the opponent with a small army), 3 - 55 Elite Lizardmen, the terrain didn't allow me to fly to three stacks of Lizardmen on the first turn, and I lost with 5 Thunderbirds (I didn't take the +1 speed bonus, I didn't want to lose momentum, I had a Logistics expert - with him, everything would have been fine).

Thanks for the game.
