(blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) 2SM4d(3), 221.

After a few restarts, the game began.

117-Cavalry without a Citadel (spent one day, didn't have time to build), secondary Castle - Rampart. Found Archers and Pikemen. Discovered a Guard Tower - many Behemoths guarded the entrance to the Dungeon.
127-Cavalry in the Castle, +1000 Gold, in the secondary Castle, Guard Tower, and +1000.
137-Added upgraded Griffins in the Castle. Still two Castles, +2000 Gold in both. Cleared the path to the Dungeon with a Grand Griffin. And immediately I see Shakti with Troglodytes and Angels.
Attacked:
I have Valeska 6 6 8 6, army: 3 Cavalry, 39 Archers, 14 Pikemen. The opponent has Shakti 7 8 3 4, army: 1 Angel, 130 Troglodytes. I had to retreat for money; my losses were several Archers and all 3 Cavalry; the opponent lost only 1 Angel.
Bought a Grand Griffin and headed towards the Treasure.
147-Two battles involving Grand Griffins on both sides. Shakti attacks the Capital 8 8 6 4, army: 10 Cats, 9 Minotaurs, 19 Medusas, 119 Troglodytes - I have a level 1 Hero, army: 24 Knights, 33 Upgraded Griffins, 9 Archers, 25 Pikemen. I lose the Capital. The Grand Griffin runs to retake the city. I have 9 12 13 12, army: 7 Cavalry, 68 Archers, 28 Pikemen - the opponent has similar stats, army: 1 Cat, 9 Minotaurs, about 19 Medusas, no Troglodytes. Thanks to Lightning - 147 damage - I retake the Capital; the army is left with 6 Cavalry and 22 Pikemen. Shakti is captured and gives me a sword +3 to Attack.
The opponent continues the game.
217-221 I take the opponent's secondary Castle - Necropolis - with a scout, build a Castle there, buy 8 Vampires and 25 Zombies, and about 15 Centaurs; the scout digs in for defense. I take another secondary Castle - Conflux. In the Capital, I finally build Angels. The opponent offers to end the game with my victory.
Thank you for the game.
