Lider1 (blue, Necro, Galtran, Galtran) def Babek (red, Conflux, random, Astral) 2sm4d(3) 1.4.5.

We played hot-seat.

Started after two resets on 111.

Fast roads. Accidentally killed the 7th hero on the first turn, the horsies got stuck in the Citadel (didn't have enough gold for the Castle — 340 short). Secondary town was Rampart, with elves there.

On the second turn: 2 hives + a min-level Griffin Conservatory. Main town had a City Hall with a Castle, secondary had 1000.

On the third turn: into a treasure zone. Another 1 hive and a Dragon Utopia, which turned out to be min-level — a Helm +6 to all, Shackles, and junk. Teleported home, then into another treasure zone. Another hive there and another Dragon Utopia revealed.

Fourth turn. Dragon Utopia level 3, I take one hive, teleport home, then another hive on the respawn, fight 100+ Manticores, and on 1.4.5 I attack Astral in the Castle:

Galtran level 18, 13 32 19 (130), 512 skeleton warriors, 41 Wights, 19 Liches, 8 Black Knights, 3 Bone Dragons, 1 Angel, 29 Grand Elves.

Astral level 17, 9 11 8 (320), 12 Birds, 12 Psychics, 27 Earth Elementals, 30 Energy Elementals, 26 Ice Elementals, 24 Air Elementals, 90 Sprites.

The battle was effectively won by the Wights alone. As it turned out later, Astral had heavily mismanaged his losses in the treasure zone, and also found an Explosion scroll but didn't manage to build a 5th-level guild — then there might have been something to say.

Thanks for the game!
