Wlk777 (red, Fortress, Tazar, Tazar) def Sem_56 (blue, Castle, Valeska, Valeska) 2sm4d(3) 217. There's not much to tell — I got Earth Magic almost immediately, later Logistics and Pathfinding, Boots of Speed. The hero was scooting around the map briskly, and by the start of the second month I had 60 Wyverns, as well as 5 Angels from the conflux. That army was essentially more than enough for victory; I was helped by the Earth Tome and Sword of Judgement found in a tier-2 Utopia, and I also had the Helm +6 to all stats. The hero's total stats were close to 100, the opponent's around 50, no chance whatsoever — an easy win on 217. The opponent was easily defeated in his native Castle with all his not-very-numerous troops.
Thanks for the game.
