Thanks for the game, too bad Kir died in the third conservatory, otherwise would have had time to clear another Dragon Utopia on the 2nd.

Well, you twisted everything, both the name and the death — the conservatory wasn't a third-level (with that there wouldn't have been problems at all...), it was max-level, and it was taken with my parameters too, but the griffins' several-fold morale ruined the elves... :rolleyes:

As for the game itself — I was thinking of taking a rest, since from Castle the road led surrounded by mountains — there was no money at all, no external dwellings either, and I didn't find a sawmill; on the pathways stood hordes of archers, medusas, and accursed snakes... I decided to clear the snakes to ease my conscience — and ended up near my native town, where along the way I saw boots, and near the Castle — an external dwelling of elves and gloves... After that, I decided to play... What took its toll was the extreme lack of money (I didn't buy most of the army from two towns) and the evil griffins' morale... Of course, I could have played more safely, broken Kir's naga banks off to the side, then buy normally and break the max conservatory even with a first-level hero — but somehow I didn't want to lose tempo; the chance for max-level wasn't that great anyway (and it would have been taken without morale boosts), and I was playing for fun
